JMark and Miranda launch their first in-season whiskey-only episode of Old Fashioned Football with a neat review of Keeper’s Heart Irish Bourbon from O’Shaughnessy Distilling in Minneapolis. They explain the concept of Keeper’s, which is Irish whiskey blended with American bourbon at 92 proof. Then they share availability and pricing around $40 (including ordering from keepersheartwhiskey.com), and describe their tasting process and 1–5 rating system.
Find out what they get on the nose as well as on the palate and how they score it. They discuss the distillery’s background, tours, events, and a planned Old Fashioned test next week.
