Transcript
00:00Sports stars make some pretty great spirits.
00:02They do. We at Food & Wine have to taste them all to determine which is the best.
00:06First up, from Steph Curry, Gentleman's Cut Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey.
00:11That's legit.
00:11It's not bad. I can tell it's like they're going for the smoothest of the smooth.
00:15It definitely doesn't have any bite.
00:16Yeah, heavy on the wood, but all in all, it's a really good whiskey.
00:18Whiskey number two. They aptly named Woodson Whiskey because it's Charles Woodson.
00:22That is a corn-heavy mash.
00:24That is a corn-heavy mash.
00:25To me, a little raw on the wood.
00:26Not as smooth as Steph's.
00:28Whiskey number three. Mascar, Ryan Blaney, Tin Runner Bourbon Whiskey.
00:32Just the thing for midday drinking.
00:34That's actually really tasty.
00:36Yeah.
00:36It is definitely a higher proof.
00:37It's higher proof, but it's not like aggressively higher proof.
00:40You can't use it as gasoline.
00:42Bourbon number four. Knob Creek Cask Drink Single Barrel Select from Eli Manning.
00:48116.4. Okay.
00:50As they say, that'll put some hair on your chest.
00:51Knob Creek does make some good whiskey.
00:53It's a delicious whiskey.
00:53Delicious.
00:54Yeah.
00:54It is time for us to choose the winner of the Brown Liquor Bracket.
00:57Three, two, one.
01:00Wow!
01:01Our winner, Tin Runner Bourbon Whiskey.
01:03From Ryan Blaney, NASCAR.
