Do you ever just say to yourself, this whiskey needs more proof? Well, if you're already above 140, how much more do you really need? In this episode, we cover the wild world of hazmat bourbon and whiskey. What once started as a rare novelty has turned into constant churn of 140+ high proof releases with everyone running to grab a bottle. We discuss why bourbon should be considered rare while the inclusion of light whiskey is an education problem but it still works for the high proof chasers out there. We talk about the retail end of things but also wonder if this trend will ever die or if it will be on fire forever.
Show Notes:
  • Exploration of the hazmat whisky phenomenon and its surge in the market.
  • Historical significance of hazmat spirits and their evolution.
  • Discussion on consumer tendencies towards higher proof and perceived quality.
  • Insights on the novelty effect versus actual taste experiences.
  • Legal and regulatory considerations in the transportation of hazmat whiskies.
  • Predictions on the sustainability of the hazmat trend and potential future shifts in consumer preferences.
