Happy Hour — Bourbons of the Year (Part 1)

New year. Same rules: we don’t do a Top 10. We barely do a Top 5.We do a Top 3 because we’re grown and tired. In Part 1 of our “Bourbons of the Year” special, Fingers Malloy lays out his list — built on one sacred principle: keep it under $50… because we live in a world where “affordability crisis” is a real phrase people say with a straight face. We’re also smoking an all-time favorite: Oliva Master Blends 3 (Churchill, 7x50) — Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper, Nicaraguan binder/filler — and breaking down the flavors (with the official Eat Drink Smoke Notebook Method). Fingers’ Top 3 (Under $50): #3: Kirkland Bottled-in-Bond (Costco) — $27 #2: 2XO American Oak — $49 #1: Redwood Empire Emerald Giant Rye — $35 Tony also explains why he’s still mad at Vegas… even though he can’t wait to go back. Part 2 drops next: Tony’s Top 3. Follow Eat Drink Smoke on social media! X (Formerly Twitter): @GoEatDrinkSmokeFacebook: @eatdrinksmokeIG: @EatDrinkSmokePodcast The Podcast is Free! Click Below!
