What happens when you listen to The Beatles the same way you drink bourbon? In this special episode of Tortured Bourbon, we pair each era of the band’s evolution with a whiskey that mirrors its mood, intention, and character — from the raw beginnings of Love Me Do to the restraint and resolution of Abbey Road. This isn’t a ranking or a tasting competition. It’s a shared listening experience, one pour at a time.

In this episode of Tortured Bourbon, Heather and B crack open the 2025 release of Heaven Hill’s Heritage Collection—an elusive 19-Year Kentucky Straight Wheat Whiskey. With a 51% wheat mash bill, 100 proof Bottled-in-Bond label, and nearly two decades of aging in Rickhouse Y, this whiskey delivers a rich, complex profile of caramel, fig, vanilla, and spice. The episode explores its history, rarity, and whether it lives up to the hype. If you’re into whiskey tastings, bourbon history, or just chasing unicorn bottles, this one’s for you.
