Knob Creek 12 changed my mind completely about Jim Beam, one of my favorites.

First time on this channel. Great job! I bought this to take on a trip to Maine. Got it for $54.99 and it ranges up to $69.99 in Central NY. Haven't tried it yet but crack it open before I leave on my trip.

I came over from the land of Islay single malts and also started with Buffalo Trace distillery products. Cheers.

I didn't like KC the first time I tried it years ago (KC 9yr. 100 proof). Love it, now. KC12 is very good.

64.99 in WV. I have 3 uncracked and one cracked bottle. Best bourbon ive ever had

ET BiB would win for me in the lineup you had for this video. So much value (and volume; 1 liter bottle) for the money. Benchmark is an interesting brand. I haven't had the Top Floor version, but have tried the others ("standard", Bonded, SiB, FP). Every one I've tried has been at least OK, and the FP is my fave (tremendous value for the money, IMO).

Blind tastings are fun and a great way to find out what you really like, without prejudice. When GF and I did something similar, our winner was <insert drumroll here>... Kirkland Signature Single Barrel (made by Barton 1792). Beat out things like Blantons, Eagle Rare, EC, WT Rare Breed, etc.

ET BiB takes this round for me. Great value for nice bourbon.

For me, this round is a tie between OF100 & WT101 (I'm not a fan of Jim Beam mashbill(s)). Both punch well above their price points.

SRP is $69.99, if you find it for that price BUY IT.

I wasn't a fan of the 18, the 15 was fine but the 12 is perfect and more available

Underrated channel bubba! Cheers!

I'm working on my first bottle of Knob Creek 12 year, and I swear it gets better with every glass. It may even be better than the KC store pick that I love so much. The first glass was nothing but oak, but it's opened up right well. 3:12 I *hate* the Knob Creek seal. I've found that if I twist the tab a time or two before I pull on it, the tape comes off a ton easier. 5:11 The first bottle of Knob Creek I had, which didn't have an age statement, I didn't much care for. A year later I tried again - the 9 year age statement was back, and I loved it. Experience with whisky had taught my palate in the interim. 🥃 7:25 The 12 year is easy to find here in Albuquerque, as is the 9 year. 7:38 Knob Creek expressions are the 9, 12, 15, and 18 year bottles, plus the Single Barrel Select and Single Barrel Reserve.

Great vibe to your videos partner! Keep on hunting!

It looked like Japanese whisky in the thumbnail.

Well that certainly is a list. A Green River or that Buffalo Trace sitting in the background (I know hard to find... but not impossible) would be a better pick and cheaper than that Basil Hayden.

I have a bottle of orphan barrel ,barterhouse 20 yrs..it was a gift,,but the problem is that i dont drink..

Stop hating on Woodford. I still consider myself new to bourbon. Ive got around 50 bottles, probably tried 50 or so different ones over the past 3 years. Woodford is by far my favorite for bourbons I can find in any store. I like the sweet stuff. I get why the bourbon snobs don’t like it, it doesn’t smell like gasoline, its not high enough proof to power their model T, and it doesn’t smell like house fire. In all seriousness, great video and good luck with the channel!

Rob , Great video on this as many channels focus on seasoned and/or haz mat , not many are for the tenderfoots out there ! There are a lot of starter bottles but you might have to dust them off from being on the bottom shelf but that is OK with me. I would add Old Fitz Prime , JTS Brown (80) and Quality House or if you need more proof JTS Brown BIB , JW Dant or EW 1783.

Double double oaked Woodford is a distillery only release I thought? Your bottle looks like a double oak.

My 3 favorites are 100 proof Old Grand-Dad (Basil Hayden is on the label, made in Clermont KY), 100 proof Early Times in the middle of going from Brown Forman to Buffalo Trace in Frankfort KY, and 90 proof Bernheim Original Wheat Whiskey for $31. The other 2 cost a little less, and are aged less than 7 years. For me, more about how I feel the next morning at 65 years old.

Thanks for doing a beginners' video. When I was getting started, not quite three years ago, I had a devil of a time finding basic information on whisky. That's why I started my own Thoroughly Amateur™️ channel - and one of the videos, which probably I need to update, is bottles I recommend for beginners. 🤠

Bombergers is one of the bottles that does not make it to Eastern Kentucky , might have to look for a bottle if we get to go out west (Bardstown) this year !

fyi there were different batches, my bottle is batch 23E1943

Great review!

NIce collection

Haven't seen a video of your for a hot minute. But I've been busy as well. Great that you got a Stagg its the only bottle of BT in looking for maybe this holiday season when it actually comes around my area. I know I'll never get a GTS or WLW. which is okay. I'm really not looking for those. Enjoy!!

heard of u from a buddy name bob he said u reviewed different drinks whats up?

I've picked up a few Penelopes and like them but I love this bottle!

Everyone who has tried Penelope has loved it , but I never have had any. Maybe one day !

Nice review of a great bottle. 🥃

Rob , Good to see Ya back. Summer is a busy time and YT has to wait. Great video ,,, Got to love Kroger`s !

Happy chew'n!

Cool man, I think the black label Old Fo Single Barrel is 100 proof and not barrel proof. I don't think the label changed to blue. Someone correct me on that if I am wrong.

Great video, buddy. Keep up the good work.

Nice collection and if I buy it hell Im gonna drink it to.

Benchmark Single Barrel is awesome especially for 27 bucks. Its better than Weller to me also. I’ve never tried the other two yet. Im in Texas the Benchmark is just about everywhere I look don’t think its caught on yet.

Benchmark is not available in my area. (Pennsylvania) I can get Old Forester 100, but definitely not at every store. In fact there are 6 stores that I frequent the most, and I can only get it at one of them. It’s a 30 minute drive, so not too bad. Pa is not great when it comes to bourbon sadly.

I keep both of these on hand. The BT is the one I lean towards more often I would say, but the Green River is what I go for if I'm in the mood for more vanilla forward notes. Both have their lane.

Old Forrester has some bangers.

Rob , A great video ! Weller SR over BT , OF over WT ,,,, WOW !! Can`t wait to get into Final 4 to see who can pull it out ,,, This is better than NCAA (Why Cal) and a lot tastier at that !

Rob , Old Bardstown is holding her own , Never would have thought it. I might put my money on her to come out of Final Four but she does have some heavy hitters to take down. Foot I bet Old Bardstown is in ever store ,,, might have to wipe the dust off to see the label LOL

You do you I’ve never had a ET so can’t say. I will say the single barrel benchmark is my favorite out of the line the full proof is ok but one dimensional.

Col. TAYLOR Rye. Nice!

Great collection! The Woodford Double Double was part of the Experimental Series but they decided to keep making it. The label has changed since your bottle but still very hard to get. Woodford Double Oak is less complex but is a wonderful daily driver. Weller 12 is excellent as well. You didnt miss on any of these bourbons. Subscribed.

I thought Green River would come out on top but I am not a BT fan. Now the Weller/Larceny was a good match up , but being a Heaven Hill fan I would have to lean to Larceny ,,, I even go Larceny over EC , but I have not tried Bernheim , heard it was better than Larceny. Buffalo products pops up more here but they are (some) a high secondary. I saw BT at retail but limit to one every 30 day`s. Now let`s see just how good things get`s !

EC is one of my favs. The taoated barrel is outstanding.

A local store by me has the SR and it’s one bottle per day if you into the BT juice. It’s 25 out the door so it’s definitely a budget buy. I’m just not interested in BT I would like to find a Stagg but again I don’t camp so around me I will never see one. But that’s okay. The brands I get are always on the shelf and affordable. This is turning into a Tater fest. Just saying. But it’s your palate and that’s what makes blinds fun. Enjoy!!

Too much bs. I just want to know your picks

im a little buzzed and totally thought you were seth macfarlane lol great video! very easy to listen to!
