MikeF Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 A local store has "Butcher's Bourbon 12 Year Old Prime Cut Single Barrel Tennessee Straight Bourbon Whiskey" (149.1 Proof) for $53 and I am tempted to give it a shot. Anyone have any knowledge to share on this product? The bottle says "Bottled by Dumplin Creek Distillery Sevierville, TN" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulO Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 They have to at least list the state of origin (where it was made) on the label. It seems that George Dickel has been doing a brisk business selling whiskey to people that want to bottle something under their own brand name. So TN on the label means probably made by Dickel. $53 seems like a good deal for 12 years old and 149.1 proof. I'd be tempted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dean_martin Posted November 18, 2021 Share Posted November 18, 2021 Go to page 50 of the Bourbon in the Movies thread. Look for the post about 2/3 down the page of a scene from Mystery Train which was set and filmed in Memphis, TN. Maybe just a coincidence but Butcher's might have a history in TN.

MikeF Posted November 22, 2021 Author Share Posted November 22, 2021 I grabbed a bottle without reading the label and when I got home I found that it is only 92 proof so I'm a bit disappointed as I thought I had found something unique. The store has agreed to accept the return, they have removed the item from their website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha I came here to post the same clip I put there. I assumed Butchers was a made up brand but now I’m thinking along the same line as you. Edit: did a little googling doesn’t seem to be a revived Memphis brand. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I gone start my own business selling whiskey but meanwhile I need to do secretary of state business name search to make sure I had a new brand name which is not duplicate to the one almost a brand.
