    I'm laughing because I went to the optometrist last week, and I just realized that watching you guys do these blind tastings is like going through an eye exam.
    "Which is better: A or B?"
    "Man, it's hard to tell..."
    Merry Christmas guys!!!

    Great, great video! The first rye that I ever tried was Old Overholt. I completely agree with Trenton's comments on that bottle and brand.
    I just want to tell you that a friend of mine asked advice for what bourbon to get her boyfriend for Christmas. I shared two of your videos that covered the price range she was considering. She loved them. Keep up the great work!
    Also, I am in my 50s. My dad just passed away this year. He was also old school regarding drinking. Kurt, when you described your mom, it reminded me much of my dad and his folks. I think the fact that I didn't start drinking until I was an adult and that I drink responsibly gave him peace about the issue. God bless you all, especially your SLB mother.

    ?Thoughts - when you are doing things like Ryes could you please provide the mash bills ? I tend to lean into very high rye products and I tend to agree w/Trenton a lot of the time, so if I want to try something you guys like, that may well play into that decision. Thanks for all you guys do.

I would recommend to not put scotch in the mix. I know Kurt was thinking of it. That will stand out way too much and not do it any justice. At least with the Bib, it might bump out one of the others in a surprise turn.

    If only Old Overholt 10 becomes more available... Its a $100 bottle already trading up above SRP. When you compare it to the price of JD SBBP that's not great. Sure its a 10 year age statement but I find Ryes to hit their sweet spot at the 6-7 year mark anyway, like the juice in JD SBBPs. If the mashbill is heavy corn then a longer age statement does help because it really takes on more of the sweet tannin and kills more of that corn graininess leaving you with a sweet and spicy rye as compared to the younger ones that are mostly spice (low corn) or rough/grainy and spicy (high corn).
