    Campari owns Appleton as well. These casks didn't cost them anything outside of their original procurement. This pricing is getting out of hand regardless of how good it is.

    • @andrewnesbitt2523
      @andrewnesbitt2523 Год назад +2

      I agree that the pricing is out of hand, but there's still a production cost of selecting the barrels, shipping them to Kentucky, transferring the bourbon to the rum barrels, etc. Just saying, it's not "free"

      @alanpawlowski1202 Год назад +4

      @@andrewnesbitt2523 ok I'll give you that. Greatly reduced, minimal cost. I don't buy the story about them being "specially selected" though. American whiskey is 90% lore/marketing and 10% what's bottled in 2023.

    Passed it up at $300. I just couldn’t justify it. Bought a 9+ year RRSB pick for $70 instead. I can’t believe the price. I’m out of the MK loop. They’ve priced me out. I bought last year’s for $200 and that was pushing it, but it was excellent at least. Thanks Jason for the honest assessment!

    @nateduncan7089 Год назад +9

    I love a good rum finish, but the price increase on this one on top of a market saturated with other rum finished alternatives this year's was a pass for me. If they maybe finished something with a little higher age statement of maybe like 12-13 years it would would be an easier pill to swallow. If I saw this in a bar though I would try a pour for maybe like 20-25 bucks though just to say I have tried it.

  • @robertshay9235

    I love the idea of this (ie high quality rum-cask finished bourbon), but man, $275 is a lot--and that's assuming you can even find it at that price and not a jacked-up secondary price. Hopefully I'll be able to try it at a whiskey bar at least.

    • @zerodynamic
      @zerodynamic Год назад

      Depends on what you are into… if you want a similar profile, Mount Gay is solid, especially the XO. I’d also recommend looking into El Dorado. The 12yr is a good starting point, then the 15, 21, single stills, etc. Appleton 12 Rare Casks is easily available at my local Total Wine and is a great sipper. If you are looking for some thing with extra history, Pusser’s British Navy rum blue, black, or 15yr are all solid choices. Stay away from sugared nonsense like Zacapa. Fat Rum Pirate and Rumratings are great resources to research before you buy. Cheers!

    • @zerodynamic
      @zerodynamic Год назад

      Also I should add that if you are into Foursquare like me, they make several other rums, so you don’t have to hunt the ECSs releases all the time. Doorly’s, R.L. Seale 10yr/12yr, Old Brigand, and Probitas are fantastic Foursquare offerings that should be easy to find if you have a Total Wine near you and are relatively inexpensive.

    When are they gonna get serious and stop calling this bourbon? It’s whisky. There are some good whiskys out there that are finished, but most of them are not great. Nulu is a prime example of finishing whisky to hide just how bad it is. I was at Willett in May to pick a barrel and was lucky enough to get a fantastic 10yo bourbon. I was going to buy two at $350, but now with a hard pass on the WYMK, I’ll get three. Thanks Jason for making that decision easier 😂

    Inevitably, I will buy one. That may be it for me for the series if they keep pressing their luck. Ironically, WTMK sat for years because they really pushed the pricing. Then the 17 year BiB came along. They could end up in the penalty box again.

    I'm guessing pricing boubon is not a easy game to play as prices keep going up and up, especially secondary prices for rare and hard to get boubon/rye whiskeys. Sure the distillers want to make as much as they can (it's the American way!). I guessing it galls the distillers to see people (the hated secondary sellers) sell their bourbon/rye for 2 to 3 or more times their retail price. Of course the distillers rightfully thinks " if my boubon is selling on secondary for 2/3 times my retail price "we are pricing our product to low".
    ( l didn't sip bourbon in the 2000's but it must of been a grand, affordable time for lovers of great boubon).

    I was bummed when I couldn't get Unforgotten last year since I've owned all the previous Master's Keeps. But after I tried a sample, I felt more at ease with missing out. Not a fan of the rums I've tried, and haven't had a rum finish I like, so my interest in this release was already low. Then the press release came with the price bump and I made like Hank in Breaking Bad, "not falling for it buddy, I fold."
    Also to my surprise, ZBiotics actually does seem to help. Tried it for the first time at the Orlando Whiskey Festival in March (on St. Patrick's Day nonetheless), so we had plenty to indulge. Still felt hungover the following morning, but I felt like I could at least function.
