We’re tired of it. Tired of the cryptic tasting notes. Tired of the elaborate marketing schemes. Tired of the pretentious plague that has sickened the whiskey industry for far too long now. We’ve had enough of the mind-boggling allocated bottle events where liquor store owners force grown men to act like 5th graders in exchange for a chance to buy a bottle of Weller at retail. The Hard Proof is on a mission to revitalize the whiskey industry and take it back to a time when whiskey was purcha ...

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!! We hope the holidays treated you well. This week, we are back with Redwood Empire, surprise surprise.

It is no surprise that we enjoy Wild Turkey products. With that being said, we have never tried their single barrel, which is a bit pricier than most of their products but at 101 proof, it seemed intriguing and worth a try. With so many of the single barrels that we have tried being busts, will this one hold up to our hype of Wild Turkey? Whiskey: …

We all know Devo loves his Knob, but will this tickle his fancy? Only time will tell. This bottle is an intriguing mix at 70% Knob Creek 7 Year Rye and 30% Knob Creek 9 Year Bourbon.

Well, this was one of those bottles you see and it looks familiar but so different. This bottle was a dusty when I bought it. It was bottled in 2018 and I bought it around 2022-2023. Knob Creek Cask Strength Rye appears to have been a special release that ended with the 2018 version and can still be found today, although it may be hard to find on y…

Longbranch was our highest rated bourbon for quite some time. Over time, our palates have changed and we were not sure if we rated it too highly. The only major change since our original review is the bourbon is no longer affiliated with Matthew McConaughey. Is it really as good as we originally thought it was? Whiskey: Longbranch Bourbon by Wild T…

As you all know, we are big fans of Old Forester. They have great whisky so we couldn't pass up a couple of bottles of their Single Barrel Barrel Strength Rye.
