More price gouging in the bourbon industry.
Where the hell are you at that E.H. Taylor isn't considered a yearly allocated bottle? That's crazy.
WT 101
Hey Brad, solid list you got there. Have you had Doc Swinson Sessions? If not, you should blind it with Eagle Rare. They taste almost identical to me. Might be a gr8 sub for someone who can't find ER 10. EHT smb is really good but if the BP Rye were more available, that would my go to. I'm drinking my smb to keep me from my only EHT bp b13.😅 I'm also a victim of the ER10 cycle. I went back to it recently and I had trouble putting it down. Cheers
My go to is the Eagle Rare 10, I’m from the Uk and it’s regularly on Supermarket shelves for £30, delicious 🥃👌
My go-to right now is knob creek 12 year now that my local spot always has it in stock for $49.99. It’s the perfect blend of age and proof for my taste and at $50 I don’t feel bad going back to it over and over
Love the JDSBBP, my favorite bourbon. The Russell 70 is amazing, found it for $42, cannot find a backup, shame on me. The only West I have is the double rye, amazing. I found a Yellowstone Hand picked single barrel, normally $59.99 for $29.99. It's hot, but I like hot, and it's tasty.
Nice list! Shocked ---- absolutely SHOCKED only 1 bottle of Jack Daniels made the list! 😝
Heaven Hill, Russels 10, Still Austin CS Bourbon, JD SB BP, my current go to pours. looking for some of the ones you have, not currently available around here, keeping an eye out though, i did find Buffalo Trace at our Walmart before it sold out, i picked up my first bottle thankfully for 26$
Heads up. The 8 year 101 is going to be a yearly release coming up. Straight from the horses mouth, too. So it's legit.
Yeah I saw that today! This was filmed a few days ago, Christmas came early for me
Green River Full Proof
💯💯💯💯
The Evan Williams single barrel is good to you as of now, find a 2009. It's my favorite Evan Williams ever. I would love to have 100 bottles of that year.
I can do some digging 👀
For me Four Roses SB OESK, Jack Daniels Single Barrel Select and Russells Reserve SB store pick Camp Nelson F I got at a store here in Colorado😋🥃
Those are all great FOR SURE
Eight year Turkey is going to be a regular item starting this year. Loved the 70th. I have one I am drinking and one signed by Jimmy Russell.
I JUST saw that on the interview with mash and drum Very very very excited about that Very jealous yours is signed!
New Riff Single Barrel
I have yet to try any New Riff I keep seeing people recommend that to me Gonna have to do a deep dive
I need to do a deep dive on new riff
I like the video. My choices would be Eagle Rare, EH Taylor Small Batch, Redwood Empire Screaming Titan, Stagg Jr., Russell's Reserve 10, Ben Holladay Soft Red Wheat, Old Forester 1920, New Riff 8 Year, Knob Creek 9, and Wild Turkey 70th Jimmy's bottle. Cheers
This list is 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Too bad they do not ship to hawaii. I have even reached out by email. I would love to sign up for them.
That’s a bummer!
For me New Riff Single Barrel, JD SB BP, Knob Creek 12, WT Rare Breed, WR DO, Bakers 7, HH BIB, Peerless Small Batch, Stranahans AM Single Malt finished in Sherry are some
Great list!
Whats the difference between that High West and their other "standard" bourbon? Can't find any info online
It’s their standard bourbon as far as I know
I love the WT 101 70th. I go to it the most often.
It’s legit good
Imagine what a little more aging would do, it is said to be currently at 6yrs. old
Would be a force!
It's online stated that this product is finished in 2 toasted barrels, side by side it has a richer amber color than the 7yr black label.
I believe it
Solid list, Minus high west & conviction, never had them yet.
Get on those they are great
@ ok fine, if I must Lol
Conviction double oak is garbage. It was super young and flat.
It’s a five year bourbon Absolutely not garbage
@ I had a bottle in September and it was 2 years old according to the clerk at the ABC, and it tasted every bit of that
Very nice choices there.
Thanks buddy!
🎉🎉🎉
🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
About the only ones of these we can get is the FRSB select and JDSBBP. We do not get store picks of the JD. I have a bottle of the FRSB select but have not opened it up but I have liked any of their products I have tried so far so my guess is I will like that. I see High West on the shelves but I think it is different than what you have. I only have 1 really go to bourbon right now and that is Woodford Reserve. I love OF1910, OF1920, FRSiB, and JDSBBP for higher quality and FR green label, and OF 86 or 100 for budget stuff. Being new to bourbon I have a lot of things I want to try before I really decide on go tos.
Totally fair! Go check my video out on beginner bourbons I think it does a good job of recommending some beginner bottles
@@bradsbourbonreviews I don't think I am a beginner. I have been trying different ones for 3 or 4 years. Like you I don't drink every day and don't drink a lot when I do.
Four roses small batch select is one of my favorite shelfers. I also like knob 9yr, Jack Daniel’s Bonded and Old Forester 1920.
All killer bottles
All great choices. The JDBiB really surprised me because I am not a JD #7 fan at all.
i just picked up the OBSF single barrel Four Roses, also a very nice pour
EHT is a unicorn in MN. You're lucky, mate.
I see it all over when I travel how hard it is It’s wild to me I’m very lucky
I've got a bottle of Conviction Founders Reserve I haven't opened yet and I'm doing dry January. Oh well maybe next week, looking forward to it. Eagle Rare is a great go-to and I can find it pretty easily, enough to keep it on hand anyway. I like the OF single barrels too and they're getting pretty easy to find.
Which one?
I have 5 rebuys. 4 of 5 are made in Clermont or Louisville, Kentucky. More for winter is the 100 proof Early Times. More for summer the 90 proof Bernheim Original Wheat Whiskey. Also the 100 proof Coopers' Craft and 100 proof Old Grand-Dad. From Owensboro, Kentucky the Green River Full Proof, especially if it is on sale for $40.
Solid list Never had the Coopers Craft. I’m gonna have to grab that one
Great list for me Knob Creek 12, Eagle Rare, Old Grandad 114, Buffalo Trace, Jack Sibs, Frey Ranch Sib, Still Austin Cask Strength & Driftless Glen 5 yr Bourbon all are my starters before I dive into my Sibs or LEs.
Solid list as well Cheers!
Need to upgrade your eight go-to lightbulbs because your video is dark as fsck
Great line up 👍, I mix ER with Benchmark full proof-alot better pour, Glad i found a backup of the WT 8yr 101, the only high west i have is the cask strength that is just so good. You can't beat the 4 roses small batch select for $49.99 and it's always available in michigan 😉 Cheers 🥃👍💯
ER mixed with FP…..interesting 🤔
Nice choice’s! The new 4 Roses SB’s (red label) are nice! I picked up the OESO for 50.00 bucks last week and it’s a really nice pour. My Go To pours at the moment are more costly bottles but I like what I like:) Old Louisville CS maple finished Booker’s Reserves New Riff 8yr bourbon J D Heritage Rye Sagamore Manhattan finished Barrell ice wine finish Smokeye Hill BP J D BP select Cheers!
Yeah they are GREAT I picked up an OESK and I’m a big fan of it SOLID list btw
Yesterday....... Store had eagle rare priced at $99.99. I laughed in their face and walked out. Was that as rude as marking that up to $99.99?
Not at all You’re 100 percent in the right
Coopers craft 100 WT rare breed rye George Dickle bourbon a local NDP River Roots Four Roses single barrel floor 4 and up. 🥃🥃🥃
I have not had River Roots or Coopers Craft
I like to make a shortlist of my fave bourbons in a few categories. Like wheated sippers, standard sippers, budget mixers, and budget sippers. Right now I have maybe 10 or so that are keepers across all categories. In the fairly available to always available categories. Honestly, high value always-available bourbons are tough to find in high sweetness, no bite, no bitterness, no burn flavor profile.
Eagle Rare is one that I share with people who want to try whiskey other than Jack, Jim, etc. It is sweet and does not "burn". And agree with the 70th Anniversary!
Yeah Eagle Rare is SUPER approachable. And that 70th turkey SLLLLAPS
Wow, you put a target on the back of that Conviction bottle, Brotha lol Definitely going to try and hunt that bottle down
It’s so good. I CANT WAIT to do my barrel pick with them next month (March)
@ I’ll be in for that!
Suggestion: let us see the bottles as you talk about them and especially as you rank them. I know we can reference back to the beginning but the visual would be helpful.
This video made me get a third camera for that EXACT reason!! Thanks for the feedback, I couldn’t agree more
With you on the ER for sure. And then other go-to options currently: JDSBBP Rye, Kirklands SiB 🫣(it’s so good for $40 liter lol), KC12 just to name a few
Yeah that Kirkland is nice!!
umm yeah I think I'll stick to the DO for 58 bucks
That is the right call my friend
Just starting my bourbon journey and quite amateur. Do you have a top 5 or 3 that would be a good starting point? At this point I have a Woodson whiskey, Traverse City whiskey and a Makers Mark. Guidance would be appreciated 🥃
Hey buddy! Yeah I do actually! Just did this a few weeks ago 10 Bourbons PERFECT For Beginners ruclips.net/video/oJWnyYYtlr4/видео.html
@bradsbourbonreviews much appreciated! I think I'll try and hunt down the Knobs Creek 12.
And people wonder why the whiskey market is crashing. It's not about what the masses would enjoy, it's about what certain elitist people will pay for a single bottle.
I don’t think you have to be an elitist to buy a 200 dollar bottle, but I get the sentiment and agree with you
Best bourbon for $50. Beats a lot of the overpriced and overhyped bourbons.
Truth The better version is the non chill filtered It’s EVEN BETTER somehow
Double, or Double Double is not a regulated term and therefor has no legal meaning. You have to go with the distillery info. Anyone can claim double oaked no matter what.
Facts
I had a chance to try to Weller Millenium and all I can say was that it was underwhelming. Probably no better than regular Weller. Oh, and I am not worth 40 million either. It was provided by someone who had a media sample.
DAMN Well thanks for saving me 7500🤣
@@bradsbourbonreviews You are welcome. I asked to get the RR 15 but got the WM instead because of hype. It was so light and not much flavor.
I bought the Bardstown High Wheat and it’s great. Any reason to try the black label BiB at the same price?
It’s just my preference, it’s so damn good
$200 for a 90 proof and it doesn’t even have a horsey?!
🤣🤣
