Great Video and haul!! My wife and I met you on Friday in line waiting to get in. Thanks for the nice conversation. We stood in the Heaven Hill line Friday and Saturday and got lucky enough to get two bottles of Old Fitz 13 and Heaven Hill 18 (Parkers Heritage sold out about 50 people in front of us). That was brutal but I really wanted the bottles. The festival was fun and like you said there was so much to try it was sometimes difficult to pick what to buy
It was great meeting you both!!! I am so glad when people stop and talk to us and have watched our little channel. We just love nerding out with other whiskey geeks!! We are all a different breed of fans. lol We hope to be back again next year!
Wow you two had a great haul. Thanks for sharing the bottles and experiences. I wish I could have went this year but it wasn’t in the cards for me. Hopefully 2025 will be my first year bc it sounds like an amazing place to visit. Thanks for sharing!
I live in Kentucky and have been drinking Bourbon for 30 years. I really like your channel and your videos. Good luck to you guys. By the way, I'm actually from Rockcastle Co. I ended up with a few of the bottles of Rockcastle from the 1rst and 2nd series. It's actually really good whiskey. Many people were late to the game on that one. I used to find them on shelves all the time. Seems many more people are knowing about it now. It's getting harder to find. I don't have the bottle you guys got. I'll have to pick that one up. I'm not big on finishes, but I like them when they're done right.
I haven't seen that Milam and Geene bottle. I think I'd really like to try that one. From my experience, I think women are excellent tasters and fantastic blenders. I don't know if their sense of smell is just better or what, but in my experience, if you find a whiskey that women find pleasing, it's always good. Bourbon, Scotch, whatever..if a woman is doing it and they honestly think it's great, it will almost always be great.
My wife would agree with you, for sure! ;-) We have a good friend, his wife has an excellent nose and we often wait for her suggestions on new bottles!
Thank you 👍🥃
Our pleasure!
Look Ma! I'm internet famous....that's me, the guy in red w/o a hat, by the tree!!!
😆 That's great!!! Love it!

Yes, we hope you get the chance to go next year!! What a great experience! Even if you don't buy a single bottle, there were so many pours to try!

The Rockcastle we got were festival picks only, I believe...don't quote me on that. It is delicious!
I brought back 3 bottles of the AE BIB Cask Strength when I was in Ky back in August!!!!!!! Freaking amazing pour
I think Tipsy sells that 15 Stars First West for $90. I might need to snag it! Nice haul!
I think you are correct! I know Tipsy has a lot of the 15 Stars but this was our first time trying it! Can't wait to try more expressions, for sure!
