Barrel 01: You'll never forget your first. The first barrel launched the business in May of 2018. From hobby to business the adventure began upon roasting in July of 2018. This barrel came from Brickway Bourbon.

Barrel 02: Barrel 02 was a Heaven Hill Distillery barrel. This barrel yielded a taste a bit more mild than I would have liked. Not as good as barrel 01 but maybe not as fresh either. Live and learn on to the next.

Barrel 03: Barrel 03 had hopes for being better than the previous but it was not. I was least impressed with this barrel from Woodford Reserve. No surprise to me though as I am not a fan of Woodford bourbon to begin with.

Barrel 04: Finally! Something with a bit more flavor. Kinda getting the hang of this barrel aging thing! Barrel 04 was a Four Roses barrel. I personally love Four Roses bourbon. This coffee roasted just in time for Christmas 2018. That made 4 barrels roasted and about 400 pounds of Clout all over the United States. By this point, I am shipping all over and in 3 stores.

Barrel 05 & 06: These are both Brickway Bourbon barrels because I have a sweet surprise for you! In time for Valentine's Day and for the month of February, you can enjoy Clout Caramels. This is a collaboration with Brickway Bourbon, Snowshoe Candy Co, and Clout Coffee. 170 pounds of coffee and about 750 caramels making these barrels extra tasty! The coffee again takes on the flavors similar to barrel 01.

Barrel 07: This barrel is a Buffalo Trace barrel and it will not last long. This is good coffee. One of my favorite bourbons is Buffalo Trace and I am excited to be able to experience a tasty barrel aged coffee.

Barrel 08: This barrel is a W.L. Weller barrel and we are so lucky to have it. Just in time for the Anniversary party is one of my most anticipated barrels. This one has a unique flavor and is enjoyable.

Barrel 09:  Marinating. In progress.

This barrel is a collaboration with Hy-Vee in Linden Market. Their new store pick of Knob Creek will soon have a coffee. Stay tuned.
