Linkumpinch Single Barrel – The Bourbon with the Weirdest Name (and a Big Payoff)

This week we’re tasting something with a name that sounds like an insult from the 1800s — Linkumpinch Single Barrel Bourbon.

But don’t let the label fool you. Behind the wild name is a bold Kentucky pour that hits with spice, complexity, and just enough mystery to keep us talking.

We dig into the brand's frontier backstory, the experience of drinking it freshly cracked, and where it lands on the flavour spectrum — all while swapping stories from the bourbon trail.
