Tasting Wild Turkey 8 Year + Updates on Eagle Rare, Old Fitz, and Belle Meade

In today's episode, Will and the Greeze dive into some of the hottest news in the whiskey world, starting off with a few lighthearted updates from their own lives—including musings on campers and Diet Coke memes—before shifting into a spirited discussion about recent bourbon releases. You'll hear their candid reactions and analysis on the highly-anticipated Eagle Rare 12 Year, its surprising price point, and how Buffalo Trace plans to roll it out as a permanent (yet probably scarce) addition to shelves. The conversation weaves through other upcoming bottles like Old Fitzgerald 7 Year and the new Wild Turkey 8 Year, with the hosts debating market trends, allocation realities, and the potential for these whiskeys to actually be accessible for regular drinkers. The guys also celebrate the return of a beloved local favorite—Belle Meade Bourbon—getting into the story behind its relaunch and what to expect from its new blend. And, of course, no episode would be complete without a tasting: listen in as Will and the Greeze crack open the Wild Turkey 8 Year, share their first impressions, and decide if it earns a place as a new home bar essential. If you're a bourbon geek, looking for candid takes, laughs, and real talk about what's happening on store shelves (and behind the scenes), this episode is packed for you. Pour yourself a dram, settle in, and let's get into it!
