Most of the time when a Binny\\u2019s Handpicked Single Barrel comes in, it\\u2019s gone within a few weeks.\\xa0 Sometimes even quicker. The good news is the Whiskey Hotline picks hundreds of barrels every year, and because of there are a lot of hidden gems that get lost in the shuffle. Pat brought Joe, and a box of hidden Irish Whiskey, Bourbon, Rye, Armagnac, Rum and Scotch gems.

The Binny\\u2019s name goes on these bottles because the Whiskey Hotline is excited about them. They turn down barrels all the time if they don\\u2019t meet their standards. And contrary to internet chatter, the Whiskey Hotline samples everything before buying a barrel, they don\\u2019t just let a Master Distiller picks a cask and then slaps a Binny\\u2019s logo on it. Sometimes there are so many Handpicked bottles in stores that it can become overwhelming, and they slip out of consciousness.

Check your local Binny\\u2019s for all these hidden gems:

That brings us to the Q&A Portion of Barrel to Bottle (yes, we still do these). Listener Kim wants to know if light can damager spirits bottles.
