Yeah! I can't figure out why Kurt is so surprised. Starting with a foul whisky will throw off your palate. So the fact that the others were wrecked isn't a surprise at all to me. But fun show!
I have a barrel proof bourbon that’s really hot. The rye I have is awesome, one of my best but also it’s 132 proof where the bourbon I have is 136. I’ll probably try to buy a lower proof bourbon, around 130, when I need to refill.
I bought a bottle of their standard BPR and it was good. Found a store that has SP of it and it's AMAZING. I have 3 bottles of it at $65 a pop. I'd pay $100 for them
My current JDSBR is 133 proof and it is incredible. I haven't had a bottle like yours but dang, that's disappointing that it wasn't the runaway favorite. Blind tastings are wild! Cheers!
Okay, I’m loving this blind. Unpredictable, not hampered by pride and preferences. Dalton did a great job laying out a series that makes it difficult to hone in on one direction. He should do a semi-regular blind for you. P.S.- I think it is a great idea to revisit whiskeys we haven’t previously looked forward to; did our preferences change, evolve, etc.? Doing such in a blind also helps eliminate biases up front.
I bought 3 Evan Williams single barrel s about 3 years ago or so before they went Kentucky only and came back they are really good. Bought them at a local small liquor store only 3 left on the shelf paid around 34 bucks a bottle 👍

Pretty new to sipping neat and I have to thank you. I enjoy watching you guys very much I watch a lot of whiskey you tubers but your guys are very helpful and a pleasure to watch. Dude enjoy the time you have with your dad doing this I wish I could of done something like this with mine ❤
Evan Williams SiB is still about $34-35 out here in TX. Love the channel, guys. Been watching for a few months now, and y'all are hand down my favorite!
Fun blind! Couldn’t agree more on the all proof not much flavor of the JDSBBP Rye! Nice job sniffing that one out! Evan Williams SB is a variable just like Henry McKenna 10yr there’s good and bad. Cheers!
that clermont steep was my first ever bottle of whiskey or hard liquor in general that I bought not realizing it was a single malt, not good at all. Then I started watching you guys and bought some normal stuff like four roses single barrel and other classics that I love and my collection has almost become an addiction. Ive gone back to that clermont steep a few times and it doesn't get any better
I agree with your assessment of the JD Barrel Proof Rye. Drinks insanely hot which makes it difficult to get any flavors from. Still waiting to have one that’s not like that.
I agree with many of the comments I’ve seen about the first glass,. Having any bottle be that crappy can absolutely wreck your palate for a blind. I think once you decided not to drink it anymore your palate came back. As far as the JD barrel proof rye I also agree I have one that’s 136.8 it’s too hot. Most of the whiskeys I’ve been enjoying these days are between 90 and 110 proof too. I can still enjoy some stagg sr and a few releases of ECBP but for the most part my sweet spot is low 100’s now Very entertaining though! Cheers!
JD SBBP rye used to sit on shelves in my area now it’s allocated for some reason and I see it sitting on shelves in other states?? Had one and it was a very good bottle had notes of horseradish on the palate and it was a good thing.
I have been appreciating lower proofs alongside high proofers lately. Started with Michters and Blantons (I didn’t like it before) as recent pours that surprised me.
Hey guys . It's funny I baught the wild turkey today .. I like it ok . The EW single barrel, I've been drinking them for a while .. I agree some are great some so so . Once 32 ish bucks .. preaty good value till they disappeared. Now for 50 plus bucks. Not happening. Jd single barrel rye .. one of my personal favorites.. usually so dam good even with its high proof. Great blind .
In a Whiskey (March) Madness bracket I got a seaweed note off of Clermont Steep. Guessed it was Currach Single Malt Irish Whiskey Atlantic Kombu Seaweed Cask.
Sure, let's have another Dalton blind. Watching y'all suffer is tremendous fun. ❤️ 22:40 When the only criterion is that it has to be brown, you're liable to get a real mixture. 🙂
I recently picked up an Evan Williams that was “put in oak” in 2016 for $27. For that price it’s ok but there’s a 0% I would pay over $35 for one in the future
I cracked that Clermont Steep open last night and had to email Jim Beam on the second sip. I don't think I could mix it and would rather have a bottle of white label.
I think that first bottle sent your senses down a weird road. You said some super random things the first time through and then corrected as you went back through.
I love your videos, but you two are nuts (In a great way). Keep doing blinds. Its fun to watch how left field you can get on some and on the nose on others. Thanks for the videos.
Fantastic show as always. Just please go back to the clear glasses. We work like to see the Color variations of the whiskeys. How dark/ light is the liquor yall drinking. Cheers🥃
My uncle got a bottle of Shimauta Ryukyu 10 year Japanese whiskey and it was horrible, tasted just like soy sauce, so I feel your pain on the clermont! Also the only store here in NJ that I’ve seen the 70th anniversary they wanted $100 🤯
@ my first was regular buffalo trace then I got wild turkey 101 then I recently found a eagle rare and so far I enjoy all of them my favorite would be the eagle rare

I love the picks from Carlos and Dalton. Do more.
Yes have Dalton pick again. He got you guys guessing. A lot of fun to watch the struggle bus.
Yup! Agreed! 🥃🥃
We need a tour of the basement bar!!
LOL, That single malt f'd your palates and the JDSBBPR blew them out.
I love when you have different people pick blinds
You were thrown off because that first sip of Clermont Steep ! LMAO!
Yeah! I can't figure out why Kurt is so surprised. Starting with a foul whisky will throw off your palate. So the fact that the others were wrecked isn't a surprise at all to me. But fun show!
you guys were so stumped haha. More Dalton blinds !
This is a classic example of how confusing a blind can be. Great job, Dalton! And a lot of fun to watch.
My bottle of JD Barrel Proof Rye is loaded with flavor. One of my best bottles
Same. Every time I go on base, I get a bottle of the Heroes selection picks. I got one that’s 1.4 proof from a hazmat.
Mine are the same. Wonderful flavors.
I have a barrel proof bourbon that’s really hot. The rye I have is awesome, one of my best but also it’s 132 proof where the bourbon I have is 136. I’ll probably try to buy a lower proof bourbon, around 130, when I need to refill.

@@jasonczfan8658 best findable BP Rye on the market IMO
My current JDSBR is 133 proof and it is incredible. I haven't had a bottle like yours but dang, that's disappointing that it wasn't the runaway favorite. Blind tastings are wild! Cheers!
So far the strongest JD SBBP I've had was 130.9. The one I have right now is the lowest one I've had - 126.9. At whatever proof it's *fine* whisky. 🥃

I think it helps to sip a familiar budget whiskey a little before finding tasting notes on a different/new bottle
I don’t think I’ve ever seen Kurt struggle like this haha
The no theme kitchen sink blinds are very amusing. Yes more Dalton picks.
I bought 3 Evan Williams single barrel s about 3 years ago or so before they went Kentucky only and came back they are really good. Bought them at a local small liquor store only 3 left on the shelf paid around 34 bucks a bottle 👍
Wild Turkey at Costco in CA is $39.99.
More Dalton and also Carlos blinds! Chaos rules!!😂

I loved it! Absolutely a random choice of whiskey. Loved it that you guys were stumped.
Trenton was fighting for his life after Kurt made him laugh while taking a sip. 😂
Pretty new to sipping neat and I have to thank you. I enjoy watching you guys very much I watch a lot of whiskey you tubers but your guys are very helpful and a pleasure to watch. Dude enjoy the time you have with your dad doing this I wish I could of done something like this with mine ❤
Absolutely love watching the twisting on this.
Trent nailed that JD
That was a fun blind.
I was ready to pull Kurt's wild turkey fan boy card until his second tasting!
This was one of my favorite blinds! Dalton has y’all so confused haha
Evan Williams SiB is still about $34-35 out here in TX.
Love the channel, guys. Been watching for a few months now, and y'all are hand down my favorite!
Being on mushrooms and them talking about bourbons smelling like sushi has me trippin 😂
More Dalton picks!!
That was a fun blind!
Fun blind! Couldn’t agree more on the all proof not much flavor of the JDSBBP Rye! Nice job sniffing that one out! Evan Williams SB is a variable just like Henry McKenna 10yr there’s good and bad. Cheers!
The names.....Dalton.
- Name that movie!!
"You got a skinny little runt named Dalton working here?
Pain don’t hurt!
@@ryannorman6965 😆
Only half way through, but Dalton needs to return for another blind.
This was fantastic!
Dalton is the man. He did a great job with some pretty common whiskey. That makes for a very fun blind for the audience.
I have that Jack. It’s an absolute flamethrower 🔥 Good blind guys.
Damn Trenton. A full 360? LMAO Great video.

This blind had an insane proof range
evan williams sib running about 36 beans around me good stuff
Same in Texas and Oklahoma.
That Evan Williams is in the 30’s in Massachusetts

Loved the show. Bring back clear glasses. I like to see the color!
I ran out and got a backup bottle of the 70th yesterday. I love it. It's well worth it.
The autozone note comment took me out. I love it how Kurt lost it. Hahah outrageous
My guess is the Clermont messed up your tasters being first.
happy weekend, legends :D
Happy Friday from Australia Gentleman, Merry Christmas to you all.
We need a short mash up of all the Turkey trash talk
JD SBBP rye used to sit on shelves in my area now it’s allocated for some reason and I see it sitting on shelves in other states?? Had one and it was a very good bottle had notes of horseradish on the palate and it was a good thing.
A really busy week yep just tucking in to a glass of Garrison Brothers Guadalupe Bourbon 😊
I have been appreciating lower proofs alongside high proofers lately. Started with Michters and Blantons (I didn’t like it before) as recent pours that surprised me.
These are my favorite videos!
I’m with Trenton on high proof stuff. Not enjoying it as much as I did for awhile. 100-120 is the sweet spot now with some exceptions.
Dalton! Dalton! Dalton!!
Hey guys . It's funny I baught the wild turkey today .. I like it ok . The EW single barrel, I've been drinking them for a while .. I agree some are great some so so . Once 32 ish bucks .. preaty good value till they disappeared. Now for 50 plus bucks. Not happening.

I would sell my right arm to see these guys do a cognac blind
“C” is awesome! lol! Surprised Kurt got it and Trent didn’t. Well Trent said Jack, but Kurt got Rye. Surprised by the poopoo by Trent.
I feel like at $50 I would rather grab a michters or maybe Makers. They are both just so solid and reliable.😊
Sure, let's have another Dalton blind. Watching y'all suffer is tremendous fun. ❤️
22:40 When the only criterion is that it has to be brown, you're liable to get a real mixture. 🙂
Those Evan Williams SiBs are under $40 at Binnys
$30 at Total Wine up here in Brookfield, Wisconsin.
Do another Dalton Blind!
Smokehead scotch blind? They have so many interesting finishes, it would be interesting to see
Clermont Steep is absolutely horrible. It probably wrecked your palate. Happy Thanksgiving guys
Go Dalton!
I recently picked up an Evan Williams that was “put in oak” in 2016 for $27. For that price it’s ok but there’s a 0% I would pay over $35 for one in the future
The Jack SBBP is a monster of flavor - tell Trenton to add a drop of water and it improves tremendously.
In the bottle reveal i would like to see you pull all the bottles out and try to pair them to the glasses before opening the envelope
luckily those EW SiB are still $33 around indy, great starter pour for the night
The EW SB 2007 was excellent
I cracked that Clermont Steep open last night and had to email Jim Beam on the second sip. I don't think I could mix it and would rather have a bottle of white label.
Y'all need to try/review Saints Alley Nobleman's Rye. It is the best whiskey ive had yet. Absolutely fabulous and only $75
Yes I like these blinds picked by other people
I vote that they get poured and then put back on the shelf to curb eyes wandering around to see what's missing (I'd do it too).
I think that first bottle sent your senses down a weird road. You said some super random things the first time through and then corrected as you went back through.
So the tuna and raw fish tastes....sounds familiar 😅
Dalton's great. This one is fun
I love your videos, but you two are nuts (In a great way). Keep doing blinds. Its fun to watch how left field you can get on some and on the nose on others. Thanks for the videos.
Fantastic show as always. Just please go back to the clear glasses. We work like to see the Color variations of the whiskeys. How dark/ light is the liquor yall drinking. Cheers🥃
Guys, how do you do 2 blinds in a day? Ven at 1/2 a shot each that’s 5 ounces, I would be bagged. Love Daltons picks, this was fun to watch.
My uncle got a bottle of Shimauta Ryukyu 10 year Japanese whiskey and it was horrible, tasted just like soy sauce, so I feel your pain on the clermont! Also the only store here in NJ that I’ve seen the 70th anniversary they wanted $100 🤯
So how long until Dalton finishes his work, and do we get to see the Basement Bourbon Bar when it''s done? TonyB
I see all the videos and love your blinds! ❤..
Still have yet to see the WT 70th in NorCal. 😢
Trent is really good
I really enjoy these blinds picked by non-"bourbon geeks"
Is sazerac rye a good first rye to start with l?
I think so. It’s actually one of my favorites
@ thank you I just got into bourbon I bought three bottles and looking to try a rye next
@@kevincarrillo6039what three did you get? How have you liked them.
@ my first was regular buffalo trace then I got wild turkey 101 then I recently found a eagle rare and so far I enjoy all of them my favorite would be the eagle rare
If you can find Rittenhouse Rye, I like it better than Saz. And if you can find a Redwood Empire white label rye, it's even better.
New Riff single barrel rye
I think that first one was so trash (tuna lol) that it threw you both off. That messed up your palates for the whole blind.
Dalton do the blind again please sir
wild turkey 70th finally showed up in a nearby store....$100....too expensive
Yes let’s see him blind another.
the evan williams is only $40 here in ny
Trent, try low sodium soy sauce.
Tamari is low sodium soy sauce
I got the new evan williams release the other day for 35.
I think you guys got bamboozled by glass A. Seemed to have thrown everything else off. Normally T would be loving on the JDSiBBP.
I’m with Trent I love sushi , but don’t like soy sauce it’s too salty.
