New Tennesse Whiskey

[Capt Ajax]

Bought this stuff in Knoxville last week. It taste like whiskey flavored moonshine.....yuk. My wife rescued me by mixing it with sugar and some cherry juice. We call it a "Cherry Shiner". Waste of 30.00..

Capt. Ajax,

That is certainly not the response we usually get, and of course not the one we are hoping for, but we're sorry you didn't like our product. We hope you'll try us again in the future.

Collier and McKeel is a quality Tennessee Whiskey. It is a young whiskey and the product will continue to improve as the distillery moves more production into the 53 gal barrel. I have been fortunate to introduce many friends and family to the whiskey. And blind tastings against other Whiskeys and Bourbon have been favorable. The general reaction is to the smoothness of this whiskey. Go to the website and watch the new video. The Proprietor and family are great folks who do things the right way. They make good whiskey......

In fairness, one thing about micro-distilleries is that they stir up a lot of loyalty in their local communities. The biggest issue I have with that post is that it is an endorsement of a whiskey made by someone who doesn't know anything about whiskey, but is just spouting some words he heard someplace. (hint: 'smooth' is always the tip-off.)

None Officially, I have known the proprietor and his family for about 40 years. I am not an investor or paid employee. Just a friend...He does make good whiskey. I have been drinking bourbons primarily for the last 30 years or so....Good question......Should have been more transparent......
