@@williamblank2213 you may have gotten the rip off ones, unless you get a Glencairn in a store or license Glencairn Crystal vendor you're not going to get the actual Glencairn glass going to be made of a different cheaper material
Flavored whiskey is actually a great entry way. I got started with birddog and pie hole. I moved onto straight bourbon pretty quickly. But I never judge.
To be fair I did warn you about that when I dropped that off that it was exactly like the syrup for Coca-Cola out of the machine when the carbonation goes out or flat Coke terrible terrible terrible drink but it was my gateway I have moved on to a much better things now and it was it was great bring that down and drop it off for you guys on my birthday and I’m really appreciate you guys and you’re very entertaining and I will come down to the distillery again to see you guys no need to make anything up to me this review made me laugh and I needed a laugh since I just got out of the hospital for cardiac stuff
Excellent guys. I've had a shit awful week and your videos just cheer me up!! Having my Thursday dram (this week Tullamore D.E.W) and watching the VAULT has made me......smile!!
LIes aside, I'm still gonna try it. Haven't had a one of Not Your Father's products I haven't enjoyed. Just might peel the labels before I crack it open to feel better about myself.
Not Your Father's makes flavored alcoholic beverages that are in the beer category as well (like Root Beer and Cream Soda), and they are way too frickin sweet too
They use the root beer in adult root beer floats here in Chicagoland. Makes them even sweeter. The company is based in a northern Chicago suburb. I wouldn't say it's a small town.
@@TheRealWilliamWhite right, I only mention them in the beer category because that's where they can be found. They are indeed an actual alcoholic soda. And I actually work with quite a few beer/wine vendors and merchandisers. The Not Your Father's company was making a killing a few years ago when they started to hit shelves. At least here in NC they were. The demand was massive. So I'm not really surprised they decided to dip their toes in the liquor market.
tell us how you really feel Daniel. i absolutely love this! and i'm not even kidding. yes, the whiskey you like rule stands firm but, its good to hear honest opinions.
Can I make a request? I would love to have a moment to remember Dave Pickerell. He was a huge influence on the world of whiskey and had an inspiring life story. I would love to see a review of all his products or at least all the whistlepig line up you guys have as he worked on a LOT.
Glad to have you gentlemen back from your vacationish (cough Daniel cough). Daniel your rage at not your father's bourbon explains why it is so warm in Oklahoma today. Thank you we needed to thaw out a bit.
The very 1st whiskey I ever drank was back in 2001-2002 Jr. High 7th grade (middle school). Being able to leave the campus for lunch, a few friends and I came to my house. On that particular day, I don't know what it was that gave me the idea to pull out the Wild Turkey, but we all took a shot of it. We all had that "stink face" look after we took the shot. In retrospect, we were all giggly on the walk back to school lmao. Good times....good times ~Your friendly native South Texan~
I'm with y'all. No sugar in my whiskey much less added flavors. I've experienced that unpleasant surprise a few times in the past few years. Also, deceptive labeling irks me as well. Lots of fake "Texas" whiskey out there. I played the Water Works in Waco way back when. Interesting to hear that place mentioned. I've played The Speakeasy a few times as well.
my first time trying whiskey was around 15 or 16 years old, i was exploring in my basement and i found a Wild Turkey limited edition decantor, i still have one at my grandmothers with some in it as well, cork is sealed. but my grandfather poured himself, my buddy brian, and me all a shot of this wild turkey that was at least 20 years old at the time. and all i remember is that it burned, and then i was very warm for the next hour. after that i drank the schnapps that was in the basement, still looking for a good peppermint schnapps since then, dr mcgillicuddys mentholmint is close.
I just started my path down The Whiskey Road this past year and have and trying to branch out of Speyside and into lightly peated whiskeys. I'm finding it difficult to pull out any other flavors after I hit the wall of peat, wondering if you have any suggestions. Thanks and keep up the good work!
Try and look for flavours you know well and ask yourself if you can find them in the whisky. If you cant find a flavour look for something else. Highland and Speyside commonly have a Butterscotch or honey note for me. Islay may be a bit salty etc..
Hello there guys, here is one for you from a Swiss distillery SANTIS EDITION DREIFALTIGKEIT. (Which I believe is Trinity?) It is a great smokey, peaty treat. It is a little tough to get here in the States but well worth the work and reasonably priced. I have a bottle (2 to be honest) of each of their whiskeys on my shelf at all times.
Angels Envy is my definite go to *whiskey Reasonable price, great taste, great bottle design, and a pretty cool history with Lincoln Henderson being the one starting the thing. Definitely would recommend.
I love you guys in general but hearing your rants about flavored crap really made me love you even more Daniel. I work at a Feldmans (Specs owned chain here in texas) and it makes me really happy they place the fireball I'm the liqueurs aisle where it belongs with the jager and baileys and fruit liqueurs.
I recently had the opportunity to buy this whiskey. I passed because it reminded me of Not Your Father's Root Beer, which I thought was good for like 3-4 sips and then was way too sweet. So I decided to try something new and cheap and bought Evan Williams bottled in bond instead
0oooooo I had a small sample of Not Your Father's Bourbon when I was looking to buy a bottle at Total Wine. I did not enjoy the sip I had. Watching this brought out that memory. Too sweet for me. The "finish" lasted a good ten minutes. I feel your pain guys.
I have definitely had one be in the mood to shatter, and one be in the mood to be safe. On the topic of flavored, have you ever tried vanilla, maple, or salted caramel crown royal? They were a bit of a gateway for me, and I don't think I'll ever go back because they taste so weird to me now that I've moved into real unflavored whiskeys.
first whiskey I ever tasted was "pinch"...Christmas 1963 under the dinner table with a cousin, from a my grandfather's glass. gramps was already drunk then...I actually liked it.
A dessert Bourbon type whiskey type spirit, cool. My first whisk(e)y experience was in sixth grade. Dad had part of a bottle of scotch left and I grabbed it and put it in my bag. Went to the church yard next to the school, my cousin and I finished it and went to school. The entire day the bottle was in my bag. I didn't feel any different that day and went home. Smashed the bottle and buried it with the label and hadn't mentioned it to my parents, ever.
Flavored whisky is a cordial or liquor depending of where you are. Flavored whisky is clasifide depending on where you are. I think in texas it's a liquor by law.
Angels Envy isn't just a sipper. It's downright drinkable but still obviously a whiskey. It took me forever to find a bottle and I really want to drink it but I don't want it to be gone.
Hey I have a question: I just bought a JP Wiser's ten year tripple barrelled which is sold in climate smart plastic bottle instead of glass. Would you say that could affect the taste and/or the longevity of the whiskey?
Hey guys you said you are not allowed to ship whisky in the US...does this law also applies to oversees? So is it possible to get you whisky In Germany? Amazing as always
Can confirm glencairn is the most durable glass, obviously made from old Nokia phones or something lol I have dropped my only glencairn twice on concrete recently, and it still lives!!
I found a bottle of wild turkey 101 hidden in the back of a kitchen cabinet when i was about 10 I remember that I thought it was the nastiest thing I ever tasted at the time and for many years wouldn’t even try it again it took another 25 years before I did
Saw the fire in this one and got me remembering a salesmen awhile ago. They were trying to convince me that putting budget whiskey in a small barrel ~5 liter was going to age it in a few months. I know you've mentioned that isn't exactly true, but my question is how hard should in explaining them the shortcomings there of. I know a salesmen doesn't necessarily know any better but still I feel I should let them know.
So. I've been watching for almost 5 months now, I've seen every episode in this chanel and the Whiskey tribe, and it feels weird to have to wait a whole day for an episode to be upload, I usually watch like 5 while im at work, now I might have to actually work apparently. P. S. Grate show, love the Rex month mooch story arcs
When you described heavy sweet vanilla I went 😱 oh well it's the thought that counts . Do you think he was attracted to the label or the description of the product . That might be a good topic if not yet covered. Have you ever purchased bourbon or whiskey by the looks of the label and was it good or bad . Once again enjoyed your review
My first whisk(e)y was when I was 8, had been sneak drinking my mom's liquor, as punishment she made me drink 304 shots of Canadian Mist.... for my first choosing to drink it was Jack Daniels when I was 16 or so at a house party.... the joys/follies of youth!
Rex I need your help... my wife(not a whisky drinker save for fireball) has a bottle of bourbon she got while in Wisconsin from a small distillery, it has remained painfully unopened for almost a year now despite my attempts to get her to open it(and find out she doesnt like it so it'll become mine). Do you have any tips/tricks to mooching this mysterious bourbon?
There is a new release whisky from a local craft distillery that I am still trying to figure out how they are legally allowed to call it whisky on the label... similar to this one... KAVI Reserve Cold Brewed Coffee Whisky, labelled as Coffee Blended Canadian Whisky, bottled at 36.2% ABV. I bought this from the rep, they add cold brew coffee into the barrel with the whisky, which sounds interesting... I remark how sweet the nose is, saying the whisky must have a strong caramel-vanilla note from bourbon barrels (she argues that the unblended whisky has no caramel notes, just strong vanilla, which fools your nose into thinking sweet... okay, sure). The samples were on ice. So I get home, taste the whisky, and find it is far sweeter than I was expecting... I start reading the back of the bottle, trying to learn more... they’ve added cane sugar and vanilla extract as well as the coffee! WTF... this should be labelled as a Liqueur then! Especially being bottle below 40% ABV, you can’t call it whisky... you’ve added flavour to it... this is basically a bottled cocktail (I recommend adding bitters and calling it an old fashioned), I’ve also since met one of the owners and he confirmed to me the whisky is sourced, theirs is still aging... the whole thing makes me a little angry.
14 years old. At a family gathering I was drinking a coke in a red solo cup. A rather inebriated uncle came up and ask what I was drinking. I said coke. He asked what was in it. I said nothing. He asked what I wanted. I looked at the table the choices were Jack Daniel’s and Jim Beam. I picked the Beam. I’ve been a Bourbon guy ever since.
From my experience, a lot depends on the people who select them. Liquor stores often have a specific person who goes out to the distillery to try different variations of whisk(e)y. If there is a liquor store you go to often, just ask them who it was they sent to pick out what would be their "private select" or whatever they want to call it. Then ask that person what whisk(e)y he likes, and if it runs along the palate you like, then it's gold.
my first whiskey was four roses single barrel, pretty harsh first experience but i still enjoyed that more than the 1792 small batch I was convinced to buy from an employee because they didnt have eagle rare. yeah "its very close" they said.... lies...
I have never gotten the big hype over Fireball, people act like it is some new great invention that changed time and space lol. I was drinking Dr. McGillcudy's Cinnamon Whiskey 20-25 years ago, same taste, same concept,,and same horrendous hangover.
I tried that "whiskey" at Total Wine once, absolutely hated it. Hard pass for me. Also I broke a Glencairn about a month ago by accidentally knocking it off of my drying mat in the kitchen. It wasn't knocked off very hard and only fell a few feet, but when it hit the tile floor that thing exploded like a bomb. The entire kitchen floor was covered in tiny shards of foot killing glass.
every time I see Fireball on store shelves it is in flavored liqueurs/Schnapps/imported brandy/Jagermeister... etc. section ...not in the whiskey section
Technically.......First whiskey was Jamesons when i was teething as a baby, first consenting whiskey I think was Jamesons too or maybe Bushmills but I cant truly recall which one
Such cool guys, even with horrible sounding bourbon, I'm new to the channel having watched the vault for at least a month binge watching episodes, whisky beast are awesome lol, I'm very interested in alcohol, vodka , whisk(e)y , I'd like to try more brands but usually the budget favors a 20$ drunk, Smirnoff or Wisers Mickey lol, but seems that my inexperience in tasting whisky leaves me not knowing what to buy, I know I do not like crown Royal I don't mind Wisers whisky but at the same time don't care for it's rye taste, I would like to drink straight whiskey, I mostly mix with coke, but I'm looking for a enjoyable drink, if it leaves me plastered it's so nice that is fine, corn whisky seems to be where I should try next maybe a bourbon, I'd never even tried jack Daniels but I don't like coconut from the videos, from watching videos it sounds like a whiskey that would leave Daniel out to sea blackout drunk with no memory how he got there, if Daniel knows a good tasting whisky I'd like to hear what tastes good
Ok everyone. I want everyone to take one of your glencairns and throw it on the ground. Tomorrow's video all I want is for people to type broken or survived. Let's do this. And all I want Zirpoli to do is type 1st. 👍
My first time, I was 11 too, when I asked for a Rob Roy and meant to ask for a Roy Rogers at a fancy hotel lobby bar in London. Yuck, but oh how times have changed.
Ok... I have an idea, make rum cake but with whisk(e)y's, like straight up caramel bourbon and an Irish that's all butter or short bread and maybe a smokey scotch, it could be a tribe episode or for dry week since you cook off 99.9% of the alcohol

Now someone needs to send the Hobbit a shirt that reads "I'm Pappa Oscar'd" for him to wear when there is a whiskey comes up that he hates. :P
Me: accidentally elbow glencairn off of table --> completely shatters.
Daniel: smites his glass down to the pits of hell --> completely fine.

Lol. Can't remember the last time I saw a glass smited!!
dude! tf is right. I have broken 2 of these damn things just hand washing them in the sink when they slipped and shattered into zillions of pieces. then Daniel spikes his into the friggin ground and it just bounces around. friggin hobbit magical powers or some ish
When he threw it I think it hate base first and sense so thick it absorbed most the shock
Bought two of these off amazon and broke both within the first week...literally not exaggerating
@@williamblank2213 you may have gotten the rip off ones, unless you get a Glencairn in a store or license Glencairn Crystal vendor you're not going to get the actual Glencairn glass going to be made of a different cheaper material

Reminds me of all the "I can´t believe it isn´t BUTTER" margarine you can buy at Walmart. It seems to be the same naming trick.

Not Your Father's makes flavored alcoholic beverages that are in the beer category as well (like Root Beer and Cream Soda), and they are way too frickin sweet too
I thought that label looked familiar. Lol
They use the root beer in adult root beer floats here in Chicagoland. Makes them even sweeter. The company is based in a northern Chicago suburb. I wouldn't say it's a small town.
I like the Not My Father's Mountain Dew...added with vodka or gin. 😂
If you think of them as beer yes, but as a soda they aren't actually all that sweet. They do make a good float.
@@TheRealWilliamWhite right, I only mention them in the beer category because that's where they can be found. They are indeed an actual alcoholic soda.
And I actually work with quite a few beer/wine vendors and merchandisers. The Not Your Father's company was making a killing a few years ago when they started to hit shelves. At least here in NC they were. The demand was massive. So I'm not really surprised they decided to dip their toes in the liquor market.

Fireball is cinnamon spirit with whiskey flavor
I agree with what you are saying about Not Your Father's Bourbon and this is how I feel about all NAS whisky.
my first time trying whiskey was around 15 or 16 years old, i was exploring in my basement and i found a Wild Turkey limited edition decantor, i still have one at my grandmothers with some in it as well, cork is sealed. but my grandfather poured himself, my buddy brian, and me all a shot of this wild turkey that was at least 20 years old at the time. and all i remember is that it burned, and then i was very warm for the next hour. after that i drank the schnapps that was in the basement, still looking for a good peppermint schnapps since then, dr mcgillicuddys mentholmint is close.

If there is a liquor store you go to often, just ask them who it was they sent to pick out what would be their "private select" or whatever they want to call it. Then ask that person what whisk(e)y he likes, and if it runs along the palate you like, then it's gold.
my first whiskey was four roses single barrel, pretty harsh first experience but i still enjoyed that more than the 1792 small batch I was convinced to buy from an employee because they didnt have eagle rare. yeah "its very close" they said.... lies...
First time I was 12 and it was either black label or glenlivet 12.
never seen you try southern comfort
I have two questions.
What are the 5 bands Daniel only talks about?
For Rex: Did you know Stan Lee passed away ?
Polycarbonate Glen Cairn?
Are glencairn that strong?!? ... or is daniel that weak... ; )
Yea, This is one I asked for months ago!
how many bottles kills do you have?in the Vault
Good lord! Was that Glencairn made by Tupperware?
Daniel, wouldn’t all that saltiness affect your palette?
I have never gotten the big hype over Fireball, people act like it is some new great invention that changed time and space lol. I was drinking Dr. McGillcudy's Cinnamon Whiskey 20-25 years ago, same taste, same concept,,and same horrendous hangover.
First whiskey ever-an unknown bourbon, mixed with root beer, out of a metal canteen, on a Boy Scout camping trip. I was 12. It was vile.
I need one of those glasses!
Just curious did Rex forget to take off his shoes or is the wee man actually getting shorter
Do you gas your whisky?
I tried that "whiskey" at Total Wine once, absolutely hated it. Hard pass for me.
Also I broke a Glencairn about a month ago by accidentally knocking it off of my drying mat in the kitchen. It wasn't knocked off very hard and only fell a few feet, but when it hit the tile floor that thing exploded like a bomb. The entire kitchen floor was covered in tiny shards of foot killing glass.
One of my glencairns exploded from a small fall was crazy 1million pieces
every time I see Fireball on store shelves it is in flavored liqueurs/Schnapps/imported brandy/Jagermeister... etc. section ...not in the whiskey section
Technically.......First whiskey was Jamesons when i was teething as a baby, first consenting whiskey I think was Jamesons too or maybe Bushmills but I cant truly recall which one
Such cool guys, even with horrible sounding bourbon, I'm new to the channel having watched the vault for at least a month binge watching episodes, whisky beast are awesome lol, I'm very interested in alcohol, vodka , whisk(e)y , I'd like to try more brands but usually the budget favors a 20$ drunk, Smirnoff or Wisers Mickey lol, but seems that my inexperience in tasting whisky leaves me not knowing what to buy, I know I do not like crown Royal I don't mind Wisers whisky but at the same time don't care for it's rye taste, I would like to drink straight whiskey, I mostly mix with coke, but I'm looking for a enjoyable drink, if it leaves me plastered it's so nice that is fine, corn whisky seems to be where I should try next maybe a bourbon, I'd never even tried jack Daniels but I don't like coconut from the videos, from watching videos it sounds like a whiskey that would leave Daniel out to sea blackout drunk with no memory how he got there, if Daniel knows a good tasting whisky I'd like to hear what tastes good
Ok everyone. I want everyone to take one of your glencairns and throw it on the ground. Tomorrow's video all I want is for people to type broken or survived. Let's do this. And all I want Zirpoli to do is type 1st. 👍
That angels envy sounds pretty good
You guys haven't even tried Heritage distillings Brown Sugar Bourbon which is quite possibly worse than this.
If there’s a bottle of bourbon or any other whiskey I want to send y’all but I don’t like in the area how do I do that?
How do I get invited into the vault and drink with you guys?
My first time, I was 11 too, when I asked for a Rob Roy and meant to ask for a Roy Rogers at a fancy hotel lobby bar in London. Yuck, but oh how times have changed.
What's worse this bourbon or Mr Boston Rock and Rye?
Ok... I have an idea, make rum cake but with whisk(e)y's, like straight up caramel bourbon and an Irish that's all butter or short bread and maybe a smokey scotch, it could be a tribe episode or for dry week since you cook off 99.9% of the alcohol
I bought a bottle because after the rebate my cost was $1.98.How do you pass up whiskey that is that cheap
