I do love Kailyn's smirking at the name, suitably childish (gotta love a good mirkin!).

You were right on track with the wood and bitterness.. I thought you were definitely going to guess something 15yr or older. Still great video!

When people ask me about this bottle I always tell them to buy at least one bottle to form their own opinion, but I also tell them after my bottle I'd rather take the money and put it towards multiple ECBP's!

Fun fact: Alberta Premium uses the exact same bottle and cap for their $20 basic Alberta Premium (still 100% rye and surprisingly good!) and this $80 premium Alberta Premium Cask Strength release.

i like to do my own blending and have always wanted to see what the 18 blended with ECBP would be like... but given the reviews Ive seen i doubt i will ever buy it...

Lovin the videos fam! Let’s get together sometime!

That price reaction… 😂😂

do have a favorite amongs bourbon, bulliet 10 year... cant get in sweden though still seeking....cheers!

that was pretty good thank you

Yes! Whiskey doesn't always get better with more years. There is a sweet spot for bourbon around 9-11 years. Most people just ignore that fact and think "ohh, dark brown and age that much be good". Unfortunately, most people are broken and they will always pick the bottle with the highest oak on the palate as their favorite in a blind. People who aren't broken will look for flavor depth and complexity and those people often don't pick high age statements in a whiskey blind (with tinted glasses so people don't pick on color). Here's what I've learned - Bourbon in new oak really taps out at 9-11 years and doesn't improve in new oak. Moving the whiskey to a secondary, neutral or flavoring barrel is the best thing to do at that point if you want to develop more flavor because the palate isn't there yet. More oak isn't really needed. Scotch makers learned this ages ago and ages mostly in used oak, a lower char, and their climate has fewer high heat days. Anyway, if you want to try something local to the Midwest and incredible... look for anything distilled or sourcing from Nobleton's. Most of their whiskey is only available in Missouri but you can probably order their basic 100 proof stuff online... and for $40-50 it's a pretty good "craft" whiskey. By pretty good I mean it smacks around Ben Holladay (our more famous, but 2nd best brand).

You're both describing sleep paralysis which is quite terrifying in all its varied forms. There isn't really much understanding of its causes either. But, nonetheless, it's not a pleasant experience. As for whiskey ages, the standard is that the peak age of a Scotch is 18 years and the peak age of a bourbon is 12 years. After 18 years, the flavorful components of a Scotch start to break down in the barrel and and after 12 years, a bourbon pulls excessive tanins from the wood and becomes over-oaked. This is why many people prefere the younger Pappy's to the older ones, for example.

Along with trying to guess the bottle, you should also try to guess what the price of the bottle is. Or maybe, what you would be willing to pay on taste alone, without the bias of the bottle.

This is by far the best duo on RUclips…. We need to see some bourbon hunting videos.

Kalyn, you were visited by the Night Crusher.

I happened to be sipping this while watching the movie Master & Commander: The Far Side of the World and the creaky oak was perfect with the sound effects. I paid $40 at the time and should have stocked to the moon not knowing how much it was going to go up.

Poured some BizarreBQ to follow along since it's the only one of these I have. I'm glad it fared well as I bought multiple bottles to enjoy for years to come. Still Uigeadail beats them all but who's counting.

Just killed my EC18 last night. It’s a decent value for 18yr legacy bourbon. I just wish it was higher proof. If it was cask (~120p) it would be fabulous.

After 18 years in the barrel, there's not a whole lot of bourbon left in there. So proofing down is a way for the company to get more yield, and that also explains the pricepoint for these ages of bourbon

I seen this bottle for $180 today and passed on it. I’m sure it’s good but for that price I would need to try it before I bought it

You guys are soooo fun!!🤣 Big bourbon/whiskey guy myself.. Glad I found the channel!!

🥃

Tune in next time when Dustin has his mouth washed out with soap

Great video. I’m sure Dustin knows but $10 a year on the aged bourbon is typically the average. I’m guessing secondary on that bottle is pushing $300. But I definitely would like to try it if I can find it for msrp. I’m sure it’s an allocated bottle so it might be a while. Lol. Thanks for the great videos y’all do. I love your interactions in them.

Your neighbors over in Wisconsin default to brandy in their old fashioneds. I'm a bit surprised Minnesota defaults to whiskey.

I'm thinking 180 in her eyes was a bit much :) and I agree . No way is that one worth it !

One of the few whiskeys thats more expensive if you get it at the distillery. $220 out the door... Oof

a remarkable use of All-4-One on MULTIPLE occasions...really well done. "aaaaoooooooooooo". As for the whiskey, the 18 year is missing proof...woody and lame

I got lucky and got my EC 18 at costco for 136. Would I buy again no. Only if the proof was higher. I did like it more after a few weeks after letting it open more. Yes, wood forward.

Very wise women, age does not means it better 💥👏👍

As enjoyable as always 😀 Cheers!

Don’t even care about the whiskey today. Where on gods green earth did you get a hat hat!

Before you move, could we please see what's behind the folding door?

3:29 A what now? I'm probably not down with the kids enough to have a clue what's being said here. Also with all this Old Fashioned chat will we get an episode of 'Cocktails with Kalyn' at some point, where she shows us how she makes all her favourites?...now go wash your mouth out with soap after that ending!

@6:00 I'm picturing myself coming home and my wife has drained a $150 bottle of whiskey making old fashioned for her friends.....

Do you guys know about the ‘neck pour’? I’m not sure about bourbon but with scotch it’s best to unseal a bottle, uncork it, re-cork it, and leave it for a few weeks before drinking. That way it opens up a bit. Otherwise the first glass from a newly opened bottle tends to be disappointing. Take it from me, a Scotsman 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Did I mention how much I love the unbridled silliness of that cap? 😂🥂

.

Love is in the air today...💕

A little more of 🤐👃🏻 and a lot less of 🤪🗣... 😂😂 The age on this one really comes through and brings down the sweetness. This probably would have benefited from a higher proof, especially at that price point. Good move to pick an unopened bottle! I think there may be some discussion around the whiskey budget... 😬😂😉

WHISKEY CHEERS 😎

Easily one of the most fun bourbon channels on RUclips. As for Ch 8 Little Book, love it....I'm not normally into rye, but this one tastes so good.

WHISKEY CHEERS 😎

I know exactly the nail product you are taking about! My mom put it on my brothers nails to get him to stop biting them 😅 It worked. Cheers!

Bearface is pretty interesting. Signal is cheap and good, if you get the cask strength.

She is spot-on . Not a fan of Japanese whisky

Ardbeg has been coming out with a lot of special editions. I haven't had these, but I have the first two of the Anthology series. The first one - The Harpy's Tale - is partially matured in Sauternes barrels. I can taste the Sauternes in it. It adds an interesting layer of complexity on top of the peat.
