    Nice list! Love that 70th Anniversary WT. I hope to finally get some ASMs this year, Cedar Ridge and Virginia Distillery products are at top of my list. Wish you guys the best for this year. Cheers!

    Thank goodness for a list that DOESN'T contain all of the same whiskeys that everyone "hunted" this year. This is a fantastic 'think-outside-the-box' Top 20.
    And if anyone unsubscribed after watching this, that unsubscriber is soooo STUPID!

    Kudos for your recognition of Wild Turkey 70th. It is a beautiful pour and I think many people wrote it off before even trying it with it being “only” 8 years old, 101 proof and $50 dollars.

      ⁠@@deankruse4491bourbon distribution seems to have no rhyme or reason. My local Costco in L.A. had tons of bottles for $40. Supply seemed endless - appeared in early November and lasted until the week before Christmas. This is one of Costco’s top 2-3 stores by sales too, which typically doesn’t count for much as far as bourbon offerings go - the selection has been subpar since about 2022. Hope your luck improves in 2025.

    Phil and Julie, great list - not because I have, or finished, 7 of your 20. I guess my palete is close to both of yours. My top 5 for 2024 are: 5) Burnt Church Anita's Choice 6 Grain Bourbon (SC); 4) Cotswold's Founders Choice Cask Strength Single Malt (England); 3) Pursuit United Double Oaked Bourbon; 2) Westward ASM Rum Cask Finished; and 1) Glenmorangie Signet. All the best in 2025. Cheers!

    Hello, I saw your 1 whiskey of 2024. I recently saw a video from the Bourbon Note. He did a blind tasting with Wild Turkey 101 vs your number 1. He chose 101? He said they were so similar in flavor. Anyway, have a happy new year. Adam

    The Cedar Ridge Double Barrel Rye, Batch 1, is fantastic. The Double Barrel Bourbon, Batch 4, is good also. Cedar Ridge has been doing different finishes with their Single Malt. I picked up an Armagnac finished one the other day. Enjoyed your list. Would like to find that 70th anniversary bottle.

    Nice list! I agree that American single malts are on the rise, but there are still some clunkers out there. Thus my 2024 favorites are SiBs-your Whiskey Del Bac pick and IBN’s Rare Character Exceptional pick-chosen by trusted palates. As for bourbon, my surprise favorite is the 2024 Woodford Reserve Batch Proof. It’s not a WhiskeyTube darling but won every blind for me against heavy hitters, so I have to give it the nod.

    • @TheBourbonVan
      @TheBourbonVan  Месяц назад

      That Del Bac Single Barrel Selection was a thing of beauty. We're glad you enjoyed it. We have passed on the last couple Woodford Batch Proofs, but maybe we need to give it another shot.

    Will the channel be renamed - Single Malt Van (SMV)? JK. Great list! I still struggle to get on the SM train but will keep exploring. Surprising #1 but such a great bottle for the $$$ and for a Turkey fanatic, very exciting! HNY and safe travels.

    The Corbin Cash Merced rye this year introduced store picks. That may disqualify them from many people's top 10 lists, but if you ever see one of them on the shelf - BUY BUY BUY!! 😺
    In 2025 Corbin Cash is going to start releasing more bourbons, similar to the Lost Lantern, potentially at Hazmat level. Looking out for those.
