Too sweet for my taste. I had just one in Tuscaloosa in my college days. I wondered why the Crimson Tide fans didn't match the crimson; strawberry margarita or something with cranberry juice. Sloe gin isn't fit to drink; try it on pancakes. In my younger days it was mixed with Pepsi ("Sloe gin fizz") and used to seduce someone that shoulda known better. The only way I ever liked it was when it was used as a marinade or glaze or both, for roasted foul like pheasant. Interesting series, I'll stay tuned.

You could go with an non peated scotch. Thanks for the video!!!

Thanks so much ❤

Thanks for making this video. Cheers.

OnlyDrams 💯

To do favorite, do the generic bottle not the one in your collection. So search Buffalo Trace and do the three dots there before you pick your bottle. Favorite, review and wishlist are in there.

Thanks! I'll check out Only Drams as well.

This is perfect timing. I just downloaded only drams last night. Thanks for the reviews and tips!

As a Texan, you’re welcome haha. I’m close to western Oklahoma, do you think any are still available and what general area? Thank you for the review.

I have them both. I started with WhiskeyShelf because it came out first . They both do a great job of keeping track of your whiskey. I like the bottle presentation in only drams and the monthly bottle raffle. WhiskeyShelf allows you to track more information than only drams. I find the location feature very useful and it allows you to print out a report. WhiskeyShelf allows you to enter a purchase store, Only drams provides you a list that is far from being complete. I’d be interested in what you find as you use them.

That’s 351 just appeared in my local Costco for $200. So thanks for saving me money. Your video doesn’t seem like a ringing endorsement.

Also from Google: The Bond & Lillard batch that typically does not explicitly state a batch number on the bottle is the "standard" Bond & Lillard release; this is because it is essentially considered a "batch 1" and is not marketed with a specific batch designation on the label, unlike the limited release "Batch 2" which clearly states its batch number.

According to the Google: Yes, both W.B. Saffell and Bond & Lillard use the same mash bill, which is Wild Turkey's standard mash bill of 75% corn, 13% rye, and 12% malted barley; meaning they are essentially the same base whiskey, just potentially blended differently to create distinct flavor profiles.

That looks great! An Old Fashioned is the best cocktail in the world, when done properly. I always thought Don went a bit easy with the Rye in his version though. He was making 2 cocktails and didn't seem to put much in. But it's television, and like you say they probably shot it several times.

I love making big batches of eggnog

Buck’s Fizz I love it with my Xmas dinner 👍

Never do this but 2 drops of water opened this up and it tasted quite a bit better

Tastes like whisky to me

I’ve heard about this - never seen it but wanting to try it

Inflation? lol. I found this same bottle with the same day stamp for $49.99 tonight in Arkansas. Sounds like the $10 increase is your local shop price gauging, not “inflation”.

I just picked up a bottle that was marked down to $99 in Ky

Recently saw this available at a store near I’m visiting in NJ. Hoping I can find it along my travels! Also nice redskins sticker HTTR.

Kevin, I’m glad you’re enjoying retired life. This looks SUPER fun!!

You got me on the Knob Creek Maple, my friend and i finished a bottle in 18holes of golf, i had to go grab another bottle, it is sooo good! Just cracked open this Knob Creek 12yr today, Happy Thanksgiving! It is quite Delicious also!! 1\3 of the bottle gone already! :D

Just picked up one today in mid michigan for $59 , can't wait to try it 👍😬

Drinking tequila chilled defeats the whole purpose of tequila. You either drink tequila because you enjoy it or you are craving the burning sensation of it, chilling it cancels both, it just feels like you are drinking cold water.

How is this guy not drunk.

In some country’s Brass Monkey is slang for junky

Gen X From Detroit here. 1970. Now in Phoenix. Excellent Job sir. Great Vid.

Id like to try that but replace the vodka with cachaca.

A college friend, who was a lot older than me, introduced me to Brass Monkey back in the late 70's. Man, did we get schnockered on that stuff. I seem to remember that it was about 80 proof in the original version. Heublein introduced a 40 proof version later and it was not as good. When it comes to dark rum, I'm a Myer's man. What rum did you use here?

Thanks for the video! For the mezcal, Try making a margarita, but with half tequila and half mezcal instead.

From my experience with buying a couple bottles of McKenna 10 I will be overlooking them in the future and picking up the EW BoB at the cheaper price point. Flavor profile of the EW BoB has been on par with the McKenna for my pallet so the price point isn't there for me on this one. A lot of better bottles out there in the McKenna price point if not below. Kind regards as always

Since that was bottled they have changed the label to indicate the campus as well as warehouse. Previously, warehouse noted could have come from any of the campuses. Camp Nelson bottles are excellent. Most of their premium bottles come from there (Single Rickhouse, and RR 13 &15). I have a CN-F that is terrific. Heard lots of good about CN-E too.

I've only had the 10year, which is good. Looking forward to grabbing one of these soon 👍🏻

I'm canadian and I don't out bbq or soy in my ceasers

Knobel(n) is by the way a German word for figuring things out but almost exclusively used in cases of games, puzzles and riddles.

Super Kevin!!!

I just picked this up because I like new Belgium.And I like anything bourbon barrel aged and I think it's pretty good

It's a decent single barrel, but as you sorta stated, not really worth the price. Rare breed is cheaper as well as higher proof and better IMO.

Russell’s single barrel is aged anywhere from 8-11 years but more commonly 8-10.

Try letting it sit for ten minutes before drinking it before you add ice :-)

This is a great bourbon!

It was Doug Coglin who made the Red Eye cocktail. And he used Miller Genuine Draft as his beer of choice. Although Miller High Life will do.

Kept seeing it on the shelf & found the video 😅

I corked my SR. Itching to try the 107. Less than a year into my bourbon journey at 30 years of age. Have maybe 30 bottles. Only two I don’t love are bakers 7 8y6m & 4roses store pick osbo that has a dry oakiness.

Fellow okie?! I’m in norman

This is amongst the best Tequilas I have tried yet. Nice haircut Devil Dog.

Tequila with grapefruit soda is most common mix akin to bourbon and Coke. Add lime juice and it's called a Paloma. Would also highly suggest an Old Fashioned with repo or anejo tequila. Follow same recipe as bourbon/rye Old Fashioned, just change it to tequila.
