ABOUT BARDSTOWN, KY | Located in central Kentucky, Bardstown was recently selected as the Most Beautiful Small Town in America in the Rand McNally/USA Today 2012 “Best of the Road” contest. More familiarly known as the “Bourbon Capital of the World,” Bardstown sits in the heart of Kentucky Bourbon Country, home to five distilleries, including Barton 1792 with new Tasting Room and the restored and newly re-opened Willett Distillery. Three of Bardstown’s distilleries – Heaven Hill, Maker’s Mark and Jim Beam – are on the famed Kentucky Bourbon Trail. Major attractions include the “Stephen Foster Story,” Kentucky’s official outdoor drama that takes place in My Old Kentucky Home State Park; the Civil War Museum of the Western Theatre (one of the four most significant such museums in the country); The Kentucky Railway Museum, where Thomas the Tank Engine is known to put in appearances; and My Old Kentucky Dinner Train. Additionally, Bardstown has four 18-hole golf courses, three wineries, three self-guided tours (Historic Downtown Walking, Architectural and African-American), two haunted tours and numerous religious attractions.

As the Democratic (September 4th – September 6th) and Republican (August 27th – August 30th) National Conventions approach, it’s easy to believe politics are a taboo topic in polite company. At a cocktail party, one wrong comment by a Democrat to a Republican—or vice versa—could have hors d’ oeuvres and cocktails flying across the room!

But dynamic duo James Carville, a liberal Democrat, and Mary Matalin, a conservative Republican, debunk this belief as the faces of Maker’s Mark Bourbon’s newest platform, which is designed to poke fun at partisan rhetoric – all in good taste, of course. After all, their relationship is proof that people who disagree can get along!

The Cocktail Party, the tongue-in-cheek campaign rolling out just in time for election season, is designed to encourage Americans to put their political differences aside and rally for a round of bourbon; it’s amazing how good food and delicious cocktails can bring people together!

To lighten the mood over the coming months, you will love seeing your favorite pundits interject in a new light; take a peak Super-PAC-free videos featuring both Carville and Matalin here (Cocktail Party videos) for a preview.

Please find Maker’s Mark’s YouTube channel link below and the video “What’s Your Favorite” that was released August 2nd for your review.

With Labor Day approaching, summer Fridays, long days and hot weather are nearly over, but why not go out with a bang? The below bourbon-based recipes all start with Maker’s Mark Bourbon, the Kentucky staple that has forever changed the inspiration of chefs and bartenders with its smooth and full character. The bourbon trend shows no sign of slowing down, so why not celebrate the American work force with an American classic?

Maker’s Mark® Bourbon Ice Cream topped with Poached Peaches and Hazelnut Crunch
Chef Johnny Iuzzini
Maker’s Mark® Ice Cream
Makes 1 1/2 pints

2 cups whole milk
1 vanilla bean split lengthwise and scraped
4 large yolks
½ cup sugar
1 pinch salt
¼ cup Maker’s Mark®

1. Combine the milk, salt, scraped vanilla bean and seeds in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil.  Remove from the heat, cover with plastic wrap, and infuse 10 minutes.
2. While the milk is being infused, whisk together the yolks and sugar in a medium bowl until the mixture turns pale.  Set up an ice bath with a slightly smaller stainless steel bowl set into a larger bowl filled with ice water and keep close at hand.
3. Strain the milk into a medium saucepan and bring back to a simmer.  Gradually pour half of the hot liquid over the yolks, whisking to combine.  Return the entire mixture to the pan and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly with a rubber spatula.  When the mixture thickens slightly, lightly coat the back of the spatula, and when the slight foam on top is the same color as the liquid underneath strain into the prepared small bowl.  Cool completely and then stir in the bourbon.  Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.  (The ice cream may be prepared up to this point a day in advance and stored in the refrigerator overnight.) 
4. Freeze in an ice cream machine according to the manufacturer’s instructions and reserve, covered in plastic wrap, in the freezer for 1-2 hours before serving.
 
Poached Peaches
8 leaves fresh verbena
20 ounces simple syrup (2 cups sugar and 2 cups) water
3 tablespoons Maker’s Mark®
2 peaches (not too ripe)

Bring simple syrup, bourbon and verbena to a simmer. Meanwhile cut the peaches in half and remove the pits. Poach slowly until the fruit is tender. Remove from heat and allow to cool.

Hazelnut Crunch
2 cups hazelnuts, cracked slightly
4 teaspoons honey
Heavy pinch of salt
1 egg white, beaten

Combine all ingredients and rub together, bake until golden brown at 350°F. Crack into pieces.

Maker’s Mark® Bourbon Peach Tea
1 part Maker’s Mark® Bourbon
1/2 part DeKuyper® Peach Schnapps
Unsweetened iced tea

Fill tall glass with ice. Add Maker’s Mark® and peach schnapps. Top off with unsweetened iced tea. Garnish with peach.

Maker’s Mark® Bourbon BBQ Ribs
Chef Joey Campanaro, Owner, Little Owl

Prep Time: 24 hours/day beforehand. Cook Time: 5 hours. Level: Easy.
Serves 4-6

2 cups Makers Mark ®
1 bunch cilantro – cleaned and roughly chopped
4 cloves garlic, peeled and minced
¼ cup fresh ginger, peeled and chopped
1 tablespoon coriander seeds
1 tablespoon mustard seeds
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon cayenne
1 teaspoon curry powder
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
¼ cup dark brown sugar
2 tablespoons kosher salt
1 rack of peeled pork spare ribs
3 tablespoons butter
½ white onion, peeled and diced ½”
1 cup pineapple juice
1 cup tomato juice
1 cup ketchup
1 cup water
Fresh cilantro leaves, for garnish
Fresh red radish, for garnish

1. In a large bowl, mix the Maker’s Mark®, cilantro, garlic, ginger, garlic, cumin, cayenne, curry, mustard seeds, Dijon and brown sugar and salt until well combined. Pour into a shallow baking dish. Submerge the full rack of ribs in the marinade and refrigerate over night.
2. Preheat the oven to 400°F. After 24 hours, remove the ribs, brushing off any excess marinade and spices (reserve the marinade for the barbecue sauce), and place on baking sheet and roast in the oven for 45 minutes. Remove the rack from the oven, wrap the ribs tightly in foil and cool in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours.
3. Heat the butter in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the diced onion and cook for 10 minutes, stirring often. Add the marinade liquid and all of its components, the pineapple and tomato juice, ketchup, and water. Cook this mixture for 45 minutes on a medium simmer, stirring occasionally.
4. When the ribs have cooled down, slice them in between each bone to separate them from the rack and place in a large mixing bowl. Strain the barbecue sauce through a fine mesh sieve and pour over the ribs, tossing to thoroughly coat them.
5. Place the individual ribs in a single layer in an ample-sized baking dish, pouring the excess barbecue sauce over the ribs, and return to the oven. Lower the heat on the oven to 350°F and bake for an additional hour, turning the ribs occasionally to insure sauce coverage.
6. The ribs will be tender and the sauce should glaze the ribs during the baking process. Serve hot with picked cilantro leaves, thinly sliced radishes, and Maker’s Mark® “chilled neat”.

In following the 2012 Presidential Race, you’ve probably chuckled over some of the tongue-in-cheek terms coined in the last few months. The ones that stick certainly have the potential to sway votes and enter the popular lexicon.

The same terms are great fun on cocktail menus and will start conversations at your election season entertaining occasions. Serve the below cocktails to your friends and incite some light-hearted political intrigue. Cheers,

It’s time for honesty! It’s time to bring people together! It’s time to mix things up.

Romney Hood

1-1/2 parts Maker’s Mark® Bourbon
Fresh mint
2 tablespoons simple syrup muddled with mint
Squeeze juice of two lime wedges
Splash of triple sec

Mix all together and top off with a splash of soda. Serve on the rocks in a tall glass rimmed with sugar. Garnish with a lime wedge

The Obamacare

1-1/2 parts Maker’s Mark® Bourbon
1/2 part sweet vermouth
1 teaspoon maraschino cherry juice
1 maraschino cherry

Shake all together for 30 seconds. Strain into chilled Manhattan glass. Garnish with a maraschino cherry (served up, no ice)

With the 2012 London Olympic Games officially in the books, it is time to recognize the unforgettable performances displayed by our country’s greatest athletes. The 46 gold medals won by the U.S. at this year’s games marks the highest gold medal total our nation has ever taken home at a “road” Olympics. Why not make a toast to this patriotic moment with America’s own Maker’s 46?

Maker’s 46 is the first new bourbon to be handcrafted out of the Kentucky-based Maker’s Mark Distillery in over fifty years. Maker’s 46 has a longer finish than the original and some added spice. Hand crafted and aged to maturity, this 94 proof whisky packs a bold taste without the bitter bite of older whiskies.

Show your American spirit with an American spirit. Maker’s 46 is the obvious way to recognize the hard work put forth by the most decorated Olympian of all time, Michael Phelps, the unstoppable volleyball duo in Misty May-Treanor and Kerri Walsh Jennings, and the rest of the gold medal-winning American Olympians. There are no shortcuts to winning Olympic gold medals and there are no shortcuts to a handcrafted bourbon aged to perfection.

The retail price of Maker’s 46 is $35.00.

THE LAKE OF MENTEITH HOTEL WELCOMES RARE GLENGOYNE 40YO

TO ITS AWARD WINNING MALT VAULT

The Lake of Menteith Hotel in Perthshire is delighted to announce the addition of a Limited Edition Glengoyne 40 Years Old Highland Single Malt to its award winning Malt Vault.

The Glengoyne 40 Years Old is the oldest, most valuable and finest, Highland Single Malt ever released by Glengoyne Distillery in its 175 year history.

The Lake of Menteith Hotel will be the first and only hotel in the whole of the UK to offer guests the exclusive Glengoyne Limited Edition 40 Years Old Single Malt Whisky by the dram. The first dram costs £450, with subsequent drams costing £220 thereafter. Only 250 of the handcrafted Glencairn Crystal decanters of the Glengoyne 40 Years Old were produced and have now completely sold out.

There are only a handful of venues worldwide where this whisky is available by the dram and the Lake of Menteith’s decision to add this rare and exclusive whisky to its Malt Vault reinforces the Hotel’s commitment to supporting high quality, local brands. Glengoyne Distillery lies just 15 miles from the Lake.

The embodiment of Glengoyne’s famed authentic and unpeated taste, the natural strength 40 Years Old Highland Single Malt is regarded by the Glengoyne Distillery to be one of the finest whiskies they have ever produced. Its superior quality and flavour reflect Glengoyne’s long standing commitment and enthusiasm for their craft and heritage.

Ian Fleming, owner of the Lake of Menteith Hotel commented, “It has been a great year for the Hotel, having won a Special Commendation for our Malt Vault at the Scottish Hotel Awards earlier this year. We are delighted to add this elite bottle of whisky to our collection. To be one of the only locations worldwide to offer guests the chance to try this famous malt by the dram is really exciting and we are sure the Lake of Menteith will be popular with Whisky connoisseurs from around the UK and overseas.”

Glengoyne Highland Single Malt is one of the leading premium malt whiskies in the world and has been distilled at Glengoyne Distillery since 1833. The multi gold award-winning range includes the Single Malt 10 and 12 Years Old, 12 Years Old Cask Strength, 17 Years Old and 21 Years Old, as well as a number of limited edition single casks released each year.

Alan Wardrop, UK Sales Manager at Ian Macleod Distillers Ltd, brand owners of Glengoyne added “Famed for showcasing and stocking only the very best of Scottish whisky, The Lake’s Malt Vault is the natural home for the Glengoyne 40 Years Old. There is a shared affinity between Glengoyne and the Lake of Menteith Hotel, not only geographically, but in the pride and passion for what they do. We hope visitors to the Lake of Menteith Hotel will enjoy a dram of 40 Years Old, and the rest of the Glengoyne range, for years to come.”

Nestling on the edge of the only lake in Scotland, the award winning Lake of Menteith Hotel is only an hour’s drive from both Glasgow and Edinburgh. Refurbished in the style of a New England waterfront hotel, it is a popular haunt for whisky lovers and foodies alike and enjoys an excellent reputation for its locally sourced cuisine.

The Lake of Menteith Hotel was on top form at the 9th Annual Scottish Hotel Awards 2012 on 20th May, receiving the Country Hotel Bar of the Year Award for the second year running as well as a General Manager Gold Medal for GM Alistair Wilson and a Bedroom Design Gold Medal for the new Lake View Terraced Rooms.

The Beautiful Auchentoshan 1966 44 year old!

DELICATE, ELEGANT & REFINED

One of the rarest expressions of a lowland malt, triple distilled on the 8th November 1966. During many long years of slow and even maturation this unique triple distilled spirit has been expressed in its present form, getting closer and closer to the pinnacle of its creation and in 2011 the whisky was bottled to preserve this perfect moment in time. Over 44 years in a Bourbon Hogshead the whisky has experienced an unserpassed level of cask oxidation. One of only 263 bottles ever released!

Glenfiddich 50 year old

Unveiled by Peter Grant Gordon at The Glenfiddich Distillery in July 2009, Glenfiddich 50 Year Old is not just a part of the Glenfiddich history; it is their history. The first vatting was created from just nine casks, laid down between 1937 and 1939, one for each of the founder, Willliam Grant’s children, who helped their father build

The Glenfiddich Distillery by hand in 1886. Glenfiddich 50 Year Old is the darkest Glenfiddich whisky, with an astonishing taste. It has a well-balanced nose, with a pleasantly sweet woody aroma. This progresses to a smooth sweet fruity flavour.

Tomatin Whisky Tasting – Thursday 13th September 2012

For our next tasting we are ‘travelling’ to the Highlands to sample whisky from Tomatin, a distillery that is situated in the Monadhliath Mountains just south of Inverness. Founded in 1897, although it’s a large scale distillery the whisky making is on a very personal level – not least because many of the families involved actually live on site, a most unusual occurrence nowadays and something that gives a strong sense of community to the whole process.

Described as having delicate flavours, yet a rich and mellow style we thoroughly enjoyed getting requainted with Tomatin whisky recently and on Thursday 13th September Alistair Mutch will be coming along to present various expressions from the range. These will go from their deluxe 12 year old blend Antiquary, through the various ages of the Tomatin single malts right up to their 30 year old that was awarded this years ‘The Spirit of Whisky Fringe Award’ – always a top award to get as it is voted for by the visitors to the Whisky Fringe rather than industry pundits.
