Some things seem to be taking shape over in Bardstown, Kentucky, as Heaven Hill is apparently doing something different for their 2026 lineup of barrel proof releases. We'll get into it in the episode, but we're taking a look at the first release of Elijah Craig Barrel Proof Rye from 2026 and seeing how it stacks up to the very first ECBP Rye that just so happened to come out in 2025! Is there room for this nearly 12 year, $70 barrel proof rye on the market? Has Heaven Hill done the unthinkable? Can Kyle continue to make uncorking puns?? You gotta find out by tuning in! Enjoy.
