It's no accident that Daniel and Zac chose Whiskey Level One as the first class to reopen the Wizard Academy. Let's be honest here. You know there's going to be a glitch or two when you open a school after so many months. And whiskey people are just cool about that kind of thing, you know?

BIG NEWS this week on campus. We had our first in-person class since things closed down for Covid well over a year ago. It's no accident that Daniel and Zac chose Whiskey Level One as the first class to reopen the Wizard Academy. Let's be honest here. You know there's going to be a glitch or two when you open a school after so many months. And whiskey people are just cool about that kind of thing, you know?

Also they're drinking whiskey all day in these classes, which doesn't hurt.

If there were glitches, they didn't show. Classes went smoothly and graduation ROCKED, as always. Then we hit the vault and spent the evening sharing whiskey and stories and welcoming nine newly minted sommeliers into the world with their shiny medallions hanging from their necks.

The Wizard Academy, like the rest of our nation, is coming back to life again.

And it feels damn good.

I've posted photos from graduation evening at https://crowdedbarrelwhiskey.com/bastard/

I Know It, You Know It.

But are you a Magnificent Bastard?

In this video, Rex and Daniel talk about The Whiskey Tribe - a big, salty and ridiculous community of whisk(e)y loving MB's. They've raised a whiskey freak-flag...

CROWDED BARREL COFFEE: SEND NUBES

Coffee beans aged in whiskey barrels? Hell yeah. You're welcome to Send Nubes. This collaboration with Project Buna imported our coffee from Las Nubes, Nicaragua. The Willett Bourbon barrels rested the beans just long enough to give them a kiss of muddled berry, roasted nut, and hint of tangerine notes.
