This $1,000 bourbon was poured on Masters Championship dinner

The Masters Championship Dinner is one of the most unique and respectable parties of all sports. More than 30 green women’s clothing winners share stories of past glory and rich red glory? That’s a good thing.

You won’t be watching the party live anytime soon, but this year Augusta Country Have done it Give us a seductive peek behind the curtains through a short form of social media video that shows various scenes of the event: club staff ironing tablecloths; kitchen workers in Augusta’s national brand chef’s coat of gilded dishes; this year’s defending champion and dinner host Scottie Scheffler hangs out on bite-sized burgers.

A quick cut also reveals a rare bourbon, available Tuesday night: Van Winkle Family Reserve Rye.

If you are a whiskey connoisseur, you may be familiar with Van Winkle. If you are not, you may not be surprised to hear this, and like many attendees at the Champions Dinner, whiskey is legendary.

“The Van Winkle line is one of the most respected names out there and one of the hardest to find,” whiskey journalist and educator Tom Fischer told Golf.com when he founded the Bourbon Blog.

Fischer said to get the name of “rye”, whiskey needs “at least 51% rye in Marshbeer, while bourbon requires 51% or more.” He added: “Over 13 years, Van Winkle’s home reserve Rye was layered and balanced: think of leather, lilac, some light hints of floral scent, with severe oak, old library notes and sweet tobacco.”

Asked if he was surprised to see Rye serving at the championship dinner, Fischer said: “A little bit, because it’s the rarest in the van’s blink.” Fischer said the distillery did not release figures about the rarity of whiskey, but thought Rye was considered the hardest to obtain in the Van Winkle lineup.

Fischer said the retail price of whiskey is $120 a bottle, but “good luck,” Fischer said. It’s as rare as a green jacket. you able Fischer said picking up a bottle in the secondary market, but it is expected to be at least over $1,000, up to $1,500 or more. “The price is crazy, but this is where we are in whiskey,” he said.

If you don’t like hunting whiskey or delivering a salary for taste, Fischer recommends that you offer more available alternatives: Whistlepig 15 Rye Whiskey or Hard Truth Truth Rye Whiskey. Both are from Indiana, he said, “both are delicious.”
