  • 1 the Alchemist Cabinet Vol. 1
    1 The Alchemist Cabinet Vol. 1: Philosophy By: Alan Reed Bishop Alchemistcabinet.wordpress.com James Alfred Bishop woke early one summer morning in the early 1930’s, heading down to the patch of wild berries he had located; ever a consummate fan of the old fashioned homemade cobbler, he wanted to beat anyone else with an eye on those berries at the peak of ripeness to the punch. Some ways behind him followed two of his sons, Alfred Reed Bishop and Coy Dell Bishop. It was early, still dark out, and the elder Bishop was ahead by quite a way following the path that treads through the forest near Greensburg Kentucky. Shortly the two boys came across James Alfred at the side of the trail; pale, shocked, perhaps even disbelieving his own instincts. They asked him why he moved off the trail and what had happened to put the scare into him. James Alfred replied simply: “You didn’t see him?”, “See who?”, the obvious retort. “The devil just crossed my path on this trail, I knew who he was, and I could see the evil in his eyes.” He repeated this story to the rest of the family later, his best guess is that the old demon was on his way down to the Moonshine still in the woods, as always up to no good and looking for someone new to sign his earthly contract, someone to tread his own Hells Half Acre……. Know a guy that knows a guy?! I sold my first jar of liquor in a church.

  • Single Malts
    Single Malts Single malt whiskey is distilled from 100% malted barley in a traditional copper pot still by a single distillery. Contrary to popular belief, single malts can be double or triple-distilled. Like the other three types, it isn’t Irish whiskey unless it was aged for at least 3 years and a day within the borders of Ireland. A Drop Of The Irish 8 yr. Finished in sherry casks, this version from Blackadder has been bottled less than 366 18 times. Sweet tobacco and toffee draw you into be punched in the gut by a strong dose of spicy, charred wood, and fried fruit. Sweetly finished with malt and smoky dark chocolate. ABV. 46 A.D. Rattray 11 yr. Fresh pineapple nose with golden syrup and salted toffee. Tastes of sweet barley and cereal 24 with a dry, lingering finish. From the Cooley Distillery. ABV. 56.2 Bushmills 10 yr. Matured predominately in bourbon casks, this version of Bushmills will go toe to toe with 8.5 any single malt of the Scottish variety. The nose of this whiskey has an orchard smell with some added vanilla and copper. Malt, walnut, and citrus flavours bring you to a soft finish of taffy and oak. ABV. 40 Bushmills 16 yr. Matured in three woods, this version was aged in sherry, bourbon, and port wine casks. 12 The tinge of ruby redness in colour hints at the distinct notes of juicy fruit, nuts, and spice that are destined to meet your senses. ABV. 40 Bushmills 12 yr. Matured predominately in sherry casks, this 12 to 14-year-old whiskey carries tones of 18 Distillery Reserve fruit, malt, and honey from start to finish.
