Users on reddit love Redwood Empire - "Redwood Empire, I like pretty much everything they are putting out, the only critique is the price is a tad on the higher side." and "Redwood Empire as well. Their Haystack Needle Bourbon is one of my favorites and I can’t wait for it to age." or "So much Redwood Empire love in here makes me happy. Really delicious." Shop Redwood Empire whiskey!


Bardstown Bourbon

"Bardstown, their Origin series was a hit, cant go wrong with any of them for $50." and "Bardstown. Disco #11 is great, the easily found and affordable $50 wheater is a steal at its price point. Far better than most Weller offerings IMO." Another hit from reddit is Bardstown Bourbon - buy it here!


Ben Holladay

"Ben Holladay - Oh man, the Sweet Red Wheat Rickhouse Proof just hits right for me, and what a deal! I look forward to everything I can try from them." Shop Ben Holladay whiskey!


Frey Ranch

"Frey Ranch - They just do everything right and I'm a big fan. I want to try anything I can get my hands on. Unfortunately, it's no longer a West Coast little secret, so special release stuff is getting tough to find." Get out there and find some while you can - or buy it online here!


Penelope

While somewhat controversial this one does have a strong following and are for sure doing some interesting things."Penelope: The Havana is what I have my sights on for 2025. The Rose, Valencia, and the toasted are really good expressions of MGP. I’m becoming a fan boy." If you haven't tried any of their stuff - grab a bottle today!
