Episode Synopsis

This week on High Proof Ashes, we’re pouring one we brought home from our trip to the Kentucky Bourbon Festival — Buzzard’s Roost Char #1 Bourbon. Aged in lightly toasted, #1-char barrels, this whiskey highlights the brand’s unique approach to flavor: soft vanilla, layered oak, and subtle spice, all balanced with the smoothness Buzzard’s Roost fans have come to love.For our smoke, we’re reaching back to one of our early podcast favorites — the Casa Cuba Flor Fina from Arturo Fuente. Blended by the legendary Carlos Fuente Sr., this cigar delivers a complex medium-bodied experience with creamy smoke, notes of sweet cedar, roasted nuts, and a hint of spice that pairs beautifully with today’s pour.Join us as we revisit old favorites, talk about what makes Buzzard’s Roost stand out in the craft bourbon world, and reflect on the flavors (and memories) from our time at the Kentucky Bourbon Festival.
