Who Built A Better Collection?
#Dan won
Sean wins due to providing a better selection.
Dan.
Dan won cause Sean cheated and counted shooters as part of his “collection”. #cheater #TeamDan
#TeamSean Love the approach of smaller bottles to try before buying the big boy size.
Team Dan. He built a starter collection. Sean built a whiskey flight.
As much as I appreciate Sean's approach, I gotta go #TeamDan here. Rare Breed + ECTB + ER + OFR + BT seals the victory. Those are 5 great bottles that I'm happy to drink at any time.
Im giving it to Dan simply for the one liners lol "We have become an alcoholic in the middle of this collection" "Was it free?" "You should have got a Black Velvet pint. That would have really topped her off" 🤣
8 bottles of Dickel Tabasco. Mission complete 🎉
😂
Drive to Ohio and you can get more than 8. I think they are on closeout for less than $12 per bottle.
Bah gawd 🤣🥃
Winner.
Don’t forget Malort.
Gotta go with Dan on this one. Both really good hauls but the Rare Breed, Eagle Rare, and Old Forester rye completely did it for me. 3 of my favorites. I haven’t tried EC toasted yet, $90 where I live.
I cracked open my EJTB. It's a sugar bomb for sure. Loads of caramel and vanilla. Though, I prefer the BP 12yrs.
Dan - “Actually I bought three bottles… I found an Ardbeg Hypernova… what am I going to do, not buy it.” Ahhh the song of my people, and the song of my significant other’s disappointment in my spending habits. 😅
that emerald giant locks it for Sean. How Dan found a 375 of eagle rare and a toasted barrel is pretty amazing
I found them at the same store. Sean went into that store but left b/c their shelving is awful and you can't see anything lol.
Walked into a store while visiting my sister last weekend and picked up a Eagle Rare pint as well. Must be something in MI, here in IL I am always "10min late".
What store was it? Also last time I was in A&B liquor they had a a lot of early times with plastic tops!
You both did a hell of a job!! I have to say that Dan’s collection looks more legit with the (mostly) full size bottles, but I feel like Sean put together an assortment of bottles that would give a newbie lots of things to try and find what appeals to them. And for that reason alone, I’m #teamsean
Two extremely different thought processes for sure! That being said... You're wrong ;P. This is definitely not Dan....
Completely agree with the sentiment and the reasoning on Dan H.'s comment. I would have said the exact same thing for a new whiskey drinker, #TeamSean
Team Sean for more variety. I like this video style. Home there are more to come!
I would have to go with Dan’s lineup because I enjoy the whiskies in his a bit more. Although I do like how much variety Sean was able to get in his lineup - the variety made it a close call
I was with Dan up until EC Toasted. Never regretted buying a bottle more. Like drinking and smelling wood varnish with a sprinkle of brown sugar.
Both killed it. Love Seans approach with the pints and 375s. Bunch of variety on a budget!
First of all, I absolutely LOVE these types of videos. As someone less than a year into the wonderful world of whiskey, these types of vids give me inspiration of what to look for and try!
That being said, Sean takes the win for me because of the vast selection with the pints and shooters
#TeamSean
Pretty new to channel, but watching this video hooked me. Great stuff guys! Sorry Sean, but I gotta go with Dan’s collection. It’s more my speed. Look forward to more from y’all.
Funny recognizing the stores you all went to
This was by far one of the best videos you guys have made. Just a fun fun video to watch. GBR 🎈
Sean had variety, and his final bottle was a real winner, but I think Dan found really good bottles and he had enough to enjoy more than a single pour.
If someone offered me a choice of the two bundles, I gotta go with #teamdan. That being said, Sean’s picks were solid, and I liked the idea of small bottles to try.
Great video...and so many more good options out there. Same game and I'm sure next time there would be another 6-8 different bottles, all great.
Great idea for this video!!
Team Sean on this one. I’m a fan of the variety. This was a fun video! I like seeing you guys out of the castle every so often
Sometimes we leave!
I’m normally Team Sean but this win goes to #TeamDan by a mile
Great idea. Love this video
For anyone living in Virginia (ABC state), pretty much everything desirable is "allocated" and only released in randomly announced drops - for $200 I recommend (all are available): Very Old Barton 100 $13.99, Baby Saz $29.99, Russell's Reserve 10yr $39.99, Four Roses Single Barrel $44.99, Maker's Mark 101 $39.99, Old Grandad 114 $29.99.
Sean won by a mile with the variety. Without knowing it, he hit on a great way to figure out your likes and dislikes, your palate, and your store(s). This isn’t just about building a collection. This is about testing/exploring multiple whiskeys and figuring out your tastes without breaking your budget, especially these days.
Team Sean purely because I'm pro 350 and 50ml bottles. Every brand should carry those.
Thanks!
Holy shit.. thank you dude!
This is probably one of my favorite videos you have created. Both of your finds are great. #TeamDan for the close win!
Great video...interesting take on building a collection.
This looks like so much fun, I’ll have to try it with a couple buddies of mine. I give the nod to Sean, the two Jack shooters was a brilliant move. I think when one is starting out, the more you can try for your money the better! Happy bourbon drinking y’all!
I can’t believe you were able to find the Elijah Craig Toasted Barrel on the shelf. I was at the distillery when they released that, it was gone within 1 hour. And you find it on the shelf?? WOW
Cool video. Thanks
Sean’s $200 whiskey collection allows someone new to the bourbon world try a little bit more and start a solid collection. Sean wins!
Great idea and you both made great choices. I have to lean a bit to Dan for a starter collection because I think BT and ER are perfect for that and ECT is good too. I would probably pick Sean's choices though for the collection I would prefer.
Pretty cool that you guys did this. Some great finds, especially in the 375s. Both collections had some great choices. Dan with Eagle Rare (although did you really need a 750 of Buffalo Trace in addition?), Elijah Craig toasted, and Rare Breed definitely hit the quality mark. Sean's quantity of good low-budget but tasty selections is fantastic for giving a beginners a great variety of things to try and find what you like. Bang for the Buck goes to Sean I think on this one.
Going with Dan today! Nice job from both of you though!
Great video guys! I'll have to go with Dan's collection.
I got half way through the video before I realized that you guys are in Midland! I have a feeling that I know all of the places you stopped!
Toasted barrel and rare breed are two of my favorite bourbons currently in my collection so Dan has me there. However, my beginning collection probably looked more like Sean’s with the variety and a mix of pint bottles to explore different flavors.
Sean, and pints are a great way to try new things. Shooters /Nips are a great way to try things too.
You gentlemen did a fantastic job building strong collections with only $200. I think that Sean's collection is a little more appealing only because he was able to purchase more different items. Purchasing pints was a good strategy. Also, I really like the Early Times and the Sazerac bottles.
Dan for the win. The ER and the Rare Breed sealed the deal. Love that 50 ml Jack Daniels Select though!
Great video, great channel!
Great video!!
More of this please!!❤
#teamdan for me this time guys. The full bottles and variety you have is great. Elijah Craig Toasted and Rare Breed are some of my favorite bottles. Sean's is what I would do though if a group of friends wanted to come over and try as much as possible, but Dan hits it for a collection stand point. Great video guys!
Gotta roll with Dan on this one, but you both had great selections. Down here in Texas, we can't find Eagle Rare. I've always wanted to try it. Solid choices all around guys! Great video!
It was very close but #teamdan with the Eagle Rare and Rare Breed took it over ET BIB, baby Saz and WT 101. Great video. Love this.
10:28 literally started cracking up hahaha 🤣 Sweet collection of Barbie doll bottles of whiskey!
Thank you for turning me onto Benchmark and Old Forrester. Damn good picks!
Always interesting and fun.
Nice picks! I was just at Opps in Saginaw and picked up a Belle Meade Reserve. Mmm good!
Great video! This is the content I love. More vids like this guys!
Loved Dan's creativity with the smaller bottles and I would have voted for his collection, but he went over budget. There was 1 rule, and yet you still managed to get disqualified! 😂
Glad you guys like Buffalo Trace as much as I do. I've been telling everyone about Old Forester for the last two years about how its the best bottle for the price. Eagle Rare (10 year is only 45$ at my local market)
Dan in my opinion, the rare breed killed it. Back when I was 21 I found that stuff at a store in a discount bottle cart for 21 dallors with the tube and took me into the land of bourbon completely.
I'd personally go with dan's picks, but the approach sean took is a great idea. I wish when I was starting out I would have gone with 375's. I ended up with quite a few starter bottles that I quickky outgrew and don't know when I'll get around to finishing them.
Wanna hear ridiculousness? Elijah Craig Toasted the cheapest I’ve seen it here in NY was 99$ typically I see it for 120-150$ range. So yeah I’d love to start my collection with that as at the price of an ECBP or Larceny BP I’ll never get one. Awesome video. Really enjoyed it.
Based on that alone Dan You are the Winner. That Early lead held ya.
I found and bought 4 bottles of the Early Times BIB with the black cap 2 weeks ago at a store in Florence, KY.
Love the video! Should definitely be a series, but fluctuate the budgets a bit. I have to say that the Eagle Rare 375, BT, and Rare Breed were enough to sway me in Dan's direction a bit but I'm not much of a Rye drinker so it makes sense.
You're both winners today. This was a GREAT idea. Well done.
Best part of the video was Jamie and Sean in the background at Opps.
Love this video concept. Please repeat this every month.
Maybe by category.
I would feel more content with Dan’s collection. Love this video!
Sean by a small margin. Both great starts to a collection. Great video guys.
Dan nailed it. Some nice finds and at retail.
Really love the 1792, early times, and the variety in Sean’s but I’m #team Dan on this one with Rare Breed, EJ toasted (which I’m still hunting), and eagle rare. My favorite video from you guys this year. Do a second video with barrel proofs on a $350 budget.
Snagged 2 bottles of Elijah Toasted! Boxing Day sale for $53 Cad =$39 Usd. Alberta 🇨🇦🍁💪 thanks for the juice 🇺🇸
#teamdan two bottles that made it an easy decision was the old forester rye and ECTB. Love the video
Think Dan took this one! Great video guys
FYI, good winter tires are fun for RallyX if you get the chance. I use to run Blizzaks on my WRX.
Part of a "collection" if trying to impress. Dan's shelf looks legit! Sean's has definite value but I want Dan's collection on my shelf. Winner, Dan.
Huge shoutout for the Cork-N-Ale! I always stop there when I'm in town for work for bourbon and craft beer that are harder to find in Ohio. Got all giddy from that clip. Didn't realize you guys were that close. Awesome!
While I appreciate Sean's approach, I gotta give this one to Dan. That's a solid haul.
Dan in my opinion with the Rare Breed and EC Toasted alone. Some of my favorite pours as of recent, especially that Toasted!
Collector-wise, Dan wins. Best use of $200, Sean dominated. The plastic cap ETBIB really set him over the edge
As someone who isn't that into whiskey but likes trying different stuff, I'm very jealous of all the small bottles you have up there
Great idea for a video! Both collections had solid options and strategies but Dan wins by a landslide! WTRB and ER make it clear!
I need you guys to do this like once a year. Maybe twice lmao.
I think Sean just opened people’s minds to buying a 375 to try bottles. I did that recently with a JD gold label and was not upset about it.
#teamdan with the W hands down. Toasted barrel is a fun “hard to find” bottle. And then bourbon staples, BT, OF, and OF Rye. I actually thought Sean’s plan was so good (the best way to grow a collection is buy small amounts, find what you like and don’t over commit). I just saw didn’t like the execution😂 Love the videos! I’m in Rochester Hills, we have a few good spots just down the road!
#BoubonJunkies
Knocked it out of the park. Love both collections
Cheers
Really like this type of video
Going with Fan. But bravo to both. How you found a saz, toasted and eagle rare. Nice work.
Gotta say Sean won the contest. Surprised you like the toasted EC. I’m ready to give that crap away
Great video! Maybe more in this series? Like a hitter/unicorn quest - “24 hours to find the best single bottle you can for $200”?
Team Sean wins this. The variety and use of the budget to get MORE whiskeys. Plus, rye.
Fun video!
“We’ve become an alcoholic in the middle of this collection.” Team Dan for the win, not just the with the bourbon but with the quotes too.
Personally I'm #TeamDan on this one. Out of curiosity I looked around to the couple stores with websites in my area to make my own. I tend to keep one bottle each of a few categories, a bourbon, a rye, an Irish, a smoky scotch, and a sherried scotch. Usually I'd have a Japanese as well but that's obviously not happening on this budget. So mine would be Wild Turkey 101 1L ($30), Old Forester 100 Rye 1L ($34), Kilbeggan Single Pot Still 750ml ($32), Ardbeg Wee Beastie 750ml ($43), and Bunnahabhain 12 750ml (55) for a total of $194.
Yesssss that basil Hayden’s!!!!
Hello from the mitten, great work gents.
I apparently need to head up to Midland to do my whiskey shopping; way better selection than here in the 'burbs. Think you both did well, hard to choose a winner.
The award for best mini bar collection goes to Sean! 🎉 love you guys great content as always
I respect Sean's efforts but gotta go with Dan... Only thing I'd change is sub OF 86 for 101 and EC toasted for Old Forrester 1910
I couldn't pass having an allocated bottle in the collection for under $200! Cheers!
Four bottles of Cooper's 100, and two EWBIB. Spend the rest on airline bottles. Done!
Love the content guys, I have a few suggestions for vids, 1) full proof collection, best 5 bottles between $50-$99 that are 100 proof or more. 2) intro to Rye, I like many of your millennial junker followers have really began to dial in the collection of Bardstown discovery, wellers, rare breed, 1910 stuff and want to explore the “sweeter” side of rye but not sure where to start. Thanks guys .
Old Forester duo can't be beat for price, taste and quality. Period. Let your search end and settle for the best.
#teamsean, although you both did pretty good for a beginner for sure. the 375 bottle idea is very good for a beginner so they can try more pours and if they do not care for it, they dont have a full bottle.
Double rye i would say is a beginner bottle. tastes like earl gray tea
Team Sean for volume, variety, and even Early Times. The Rare Breed alone was pulling me the other way a bit, though.
