| Old Pogue Master's Select 91 proof Old Pogue's history is almost as long as the history of American bourbon itself. The original Pogue distillery was built in 1869, making it only the 3rd registered distillery in Kentucky at the time. This continued for half a century or so before our arch-nemesis, Prohibition, forced the distillery to shut down. Now, the fourth and fifth generation of Pogue family members are back on the whiskey scene with their family's original recipe. Old Pogue is the color of a rich mahogany (much like the smell in Ron Burgundy's apartment), and the sweetness of the corn in the mash is very prevalent up front, giving way to a nice rye spiciness right behind it. More please! |
