E.H. Taylor: Battle-in-Bond

The boys are back from approximately 87 cruises to alphabet-slam some E.H. Taylor—because nothing says “back to school” like B.I.B. 🥃✏️

We pop the Taylor trio: Small Batch, Single Barrel, and a 131.1-proof Barrel Proof that drinks suspiciously gentle (dangerous). In between sips, we learn what what a “tater” is (collects bottles for the label, not the juice), why Eagle Rare 12 might just be Regular Ten with a mustache, and that Booker’s in a wooden box is not a personality.

Bonus chaos: broken slides, bees at the swim-up bar, roulette redemption, and bold UCF predictions. Also, someone still hates Woodford. Like, a lot.
