This week on Tortured Bourbon, our friend Mike shows up with a Mystery Bourbon—and Heather and B have to figure out what it is without the label. Is it an allocated unicorn or a budget sleeper? Tune in to see how we fared in this blind tasting challenge.

Two Buffalo Trace Single Barrel bourbons. One blind tasting. Which barrel wins? In this unscripted Tortured Bourbon showdown, Heather and B discover just how different “identical” bourbons can be.

Same mash bill. Same distillery. Wildly different outcomes. In this episode, we put Heaven Hill’s Bernheim Barrel Proof up against the 19-Year Wheat Whiskey from their exclusive Heritage Collection. One is accessible and bold; the other is rare, refined, and ridiculously expensive. Is the extra age—and price—worth it? We taste, debate, and do the bourbon math so you don’t have to.

Two Barrell Bourbons. One showdown.
