Freeland Spirits Cask Strength Straight Bourbon Whiskey - Is This the World’s Best Looking Bottle of Bourbon?

In this episode of Aussie Bourbon Lovers, we taste a bourbon from Freeland Spirits, a women-owned distillery out of Portland, Oregon — and quite possibly the best-looking bottle we’ve ever featured.

We explore:

• 💃 The Freeland story: Meemaw inspiration, women-led vision

• 🧪 Why women have more taste buds (it’s science!)

• 🍷 Finishing notes: hints of Pinot Noir cask ageing

• 🎥 How a work trip turned into a distillery visit

• 🥃 What it’s like to sip something that's equal parts cool, rare, and heartfelt

From bottle shape to backstory, this one’s got flavour in all the right places.
