Travel. Explore. Drink Bourbon | Rare Releases & Bold Proofs

Brandon and Jonathan are back exploring the Travel. Explore. Drink Bourbon mindset—where vacations, discovery, and trying new pours go hand in hand. In this episode, we dive into three releases that highlight unique mash bills, high proof character, and global finishing styles: the Louisiana Senator Bourbon: The Huey P. Long Release, the first in an 8–10 year vertical series bottled at 107 proof; the hard-to-find Frey Ranch 5 Grain Single Barrel, featuring all five grains distilled together at a hefty 130+ proof; and the RD1 Sister Cities 2025 Edition, finished with Japanese Mizunara and French Oak. From aging and proof to price and availability, we break down what makes each bottle unique—and which ones are worth chasing on your next bourbon adventure.
