I just recently got around to picking up the Sagamore DO, and it’s really phenomenal. The fact that bottle is readily available for $60 or less is crazy.
Nice video idea! I really enjoy the ECBP B522 and have a backup. My local store still has about ten bottles on the shelf. The Sagamore DO and their other offerings are so nice! I have a four square indelible that’s really nice and the Bardstown collaboration 4[] is great also! Jack Daniels squat bottles are all great:)! Cheers!
Love these videos and the work you put in. 500+ bottles is a cool accomplishment. Question for one of you "answers" videos: What method do you use to keep track of your tasting note, scores, inventory, etc.? I've come across a few apps that seem good but love learning how others do it. Do you use an app, notebook, nothing? Thanks!
Just last night I was having a pour and thinking that I need a way to track my personal ratings on bottles. Recently started having the wife blind pour me a sip to really analyze them.
Great question. We with the answer were more elegant but it's just a Google spreadsheet that we add to weekly with the pour, price, proof, type, our scores after price is taken into account, and a link to the video. We don't tend to track scoring (or score things at all) off the channel.
My 2 👍 up bottles would be Hardins Creek Boston, I didn’t believe in buying allocated hard to find bottles until I tried this Jim Beam gem, it’s my special occasion pour that I hold onto now. Another more common pour is definitely Rare Breed and Peerless DO both in my regular rotation. My favorite international pour has gotta be the Powers John’s Lane 12 it’s one that doesn’t get the hype but man does it hit up there with Red Breast and Yellow Spot!
The JDSBBP bourbon and rye are my favorite bottles I own. Rare Breed is in my top 3. The Laddie is in my TW shopping cart right now and Amrut is on my shopping list to get eventually.
Thanks for the great video! I love what y'all do for the whiskey community. I suspect that the reason for y'all having a slight preference for the Rare Breed Duty-Free Exclusive over standard Rare Breed comes down to yours being a slightly better batch, rather than for any difference in production. In an interview with Whiskey Advocate, Jimmy Russell said every single rare breed is un-chillfiltered. They just put it on the label in duty-free areas because the international whisky market cares more about seeing it stated explicitly.
Batch variance is very fair. Eddie and Bruce are more involved in operations at Turkey than Jimmy these days and have said that his statement on NCF Rare Breed in that video isn’t true, for whatever that’s worth.
I am not a fan of Jack products but them two bottles there are fantastic! I have both and the double barrel bottle is at 131 proof. Only a very few around the table are able to ask for a second neat pour. Not for the faint of heart. Will always stock these. Good show all, be safe, Cheers!
At my local farmer's market, the Welsh butcher brings Welsh whiskies and I truly enjoy the single malt. The country definitely has something going well. Bruichladdich is fabulous! And now I know what to buy when I head to India (probably within a year).
I agree the ECBP B522 was a stand out for me as well. It was easy sipping, crushable BP. The JDSBBS rye changed by mind about Tenn whiskey and ryes. Just an amazing pour. GJ guys!
I know alot of people recommend rare breed but yall made my mind for me on it. I honestly only ever had 101 prior and absolutely hate it, but now I always buy rare breed whenever I see it on base. Thanks for the video!
Thanks for the video…Made a note about that Penderyn. The classic laddie is just darn tasty, I get like a corn bread drizzled in honey. Received my double trouble dangerously delicious PU pick from y’all today and super excited to crack it. Cheers!
Definitely 👍👍on the Sagamore double oaked rye and WTRB. The JD single barrel select is a good mixer too, but I just tasted some vs the Woodford 121.2 because I picked up the char on the Woodford. After that sip, the JD felt so thin. I may need to get a barrel proof JD instead. Another 👍👍for me is an 8 year + Baker’s 7. I have an 8y6mo that is delicious.
Those JD’s are fairly easily available and reasonably priced. It’s good stuff. I chase bottles but always question myself why when I drink a nice JD or woodford dbl oak. Great vid
Alright ya got me..... I just popped my Nashville Barrel Company single barrel Barrel Proof Bourbon and Straight Rye barrel proof and yes they are definitely worth the hype yoll be talking since I been watching... thank you for putting me on to this hopefully I can get more in Australia 🥃💖🥃
Next month I am traveling to South Carolina from Illinois. Hope to find some decent bottles. Interested to see the difference in cost. Love your reviews as always 🌀🥃
I agree 100% on the jd bp rye. My local brewery has it and I was shocked at how much I enjoyed it and it's been on my radar for a few weeks now. Not super easy to find, but worth hunting for sure. Thanks guys.
I don't think Sagamore Spirit can make bad whisky. Their regular bottle was the best rye I'd ever tasted, until I tried the Cask Strength. Now I've had the Hard Truth Sweet Mash Rye, which is *fine* whisky, but I think the Sagamore Cask Strength still beats it by a bit. I've not had the Sagamore Spirit double oak - I'm not sure I've seen it here - but I have to believe that it's fantastic. 🙂
Love the JD SBBP Rye!! Have you guys tried Smokeye Hill Barrel Proof? It won Bourbon of the year at the ASCOTS over ECBP C923 and GTS. It’s fantastic for a 5 year old.
I bought a case of JDSiBBP rye, when I was at the distillery. We have that love in common. It was, at the time, hard to find in my area. Some of my honorable mentions: Augusta 8 (Old Route 8) and 10 yr.(Buckner's) A. Overholt rye Peerless DO Hard Truth Four Grain Bib Knob Creek Bourbonxrye
Watching all these whisky videos from youtube reminds me of my fragrance jouney like 7 years ago. When i see the same liquor recommended on multiple chanels, im buying it and trying it. lol. If even a bottle tastes kind of bad, itl eventually get drank so im up for the try. NOt really waisting money. If i hate it, il drink it last after other better drinks cause by then i wont care lol.
i still have the 13th colony double oaked first release. everybody i knew in georgia had a bottle or two at one point now we can hardly find a bottle lol
Is that NBC pick the one that dropped at Whiskey Weekend Batch 5? Or was it the next one? Regardless, it was in the top 3-4 whiskeys I tasted all weekend, which included WLW, Stagg, 2(!) ECBP Pirate bottles, a Willett purple top etc etc. It makes me happy that it made unicorn status with the others 😊
I always wonder if what I consider the best stuff I've tasted would hold up if I had been able to A/B it against something I'm familiar with. So often it's hard because they were one offs and it's hard to separate they experience from the spirit. My current top stuff would be: 2006 Pappy Van Winkle 15 (Stitzel-Weller, none of the more recent ones I've tried have held up to the memory of this) 2005 Noah's Mill 15 year (I should have bought cases of this) 1947 Colonel Taylor Booker's Rye Four Roses Al Young Kentucky Owl Batch 1 Rye Wild Turkey Traditions 14 Russel's Reserve Single Rickhouse CNF Bruichladdich Black Arts 9.1 Red Breast 27 Heaven Hill Heritage 20 year corn whiskey 2014 William Heaven Hill Bottled in Bond 11 year Doc Swinsons 15 year Batch 9 Four Roses LE 2015 Four Roses LE 2019
Fantastic list! Funnily enough, some of our favorite tasting whisk(e)y may not actually get two thumbs up in a double blind format simply due to value being off, but a Top 10 Things We've Ever Tasted would be an interesting video. I've thought about it several times and it would be a tough list to put together.
Wife and I played a drinking game and got pretty tipsy. Drink every time Erin plays with her hair. Killed a Widow Jane 10 year during this video. Thanks for the videos, knowledge, and entertainment!
I (Josh) like Stagg a lot more than Erin. She usually finds Stagg overly hot and harsh, and some batches even come across sour for her. Good ECBP batches are usually winners for both of us but a lot of lesser ECBP batches can be hot as well.
It is fascinating how different tastes can be. I’ve picked up a few bottles after your videos and my wife and I loved them (SagamoreDO, Michter’s Toasted, Elijah Craig Barrel Proof). We like the Penderyn too, but are much more single malt fans anyway. My wife and I have over 200 bottles of Scottish single malts and the classic laddie might be our least favorite. We may have a bad batch because I see a lot of favorable reviews, but my wife and I describe the tasting notes as rotten fruits and lactic baby puke. Similarly, we dislike Rare Breed. It reminds both my wife and I of artificial cherry flavored cough syrup. I don’t think you two even noted cherry. We’ve even tried both the Laddie and Rare Breed in blinds and disliked them. Whisky is fascinating in how different it can be perceived, but sometimes completely aligned in perception. I like your videos a lot particularly to see how differently you two can perceive things. I thought the premise was sound that if both of your palettes aligned that it would be good for the general audience. However it was interesting to have two of our least favorites be in your top (but I did expect Rare Breed based on past videos).
Those tasting notes in The Classic Laddie do make me think it might be a bad batch or tainted bottle, but it’s always so hard to say. We certainly don’t get those on ours, and it’s a whisky that’s been well reviewed elsewhere too. Definitely could just be that whisky and your palate not jiving too. Either way it’s certainly interesting as you said!
Absolute monster of a video! 22 GTS is the best pour I've ever had. Swagg Jr is definitely up there for best bottles I've ever purchased. I've blinded it against Stagg Jrs as well and it's always come out on top. Cheers guys!
What I think is funny about the ECBP is that they don't seem to care about criticism ... they just do what they do, and they get people to talk about their booze anyway 😉I've never had one that I thought wasn't worth the price, but that's just me. In the spirit of full disclosure, though, I don't buy them all. Just most of them. I also think that, top to bottom, Jack Daniel provides the most value for the money as well. They may have been caught a little flat-footed by the bourbon craze we're in now, but they sure caught up in a hurry.
It hasn’t scored highly for the both of us double blind, but we’ve only had a limited range of bottles double blind as well. We’re big fans of Redbreast cask strength.
The video was the best scoring bottles blind. We’re just relaying those scores. Hard for us to know availability everywhere but over half these are available in most markets and/or available online from retailers that ship direct.
With all due respect, I don't "let her talk." She talks as much as she wants to. I'm the whiskey nerd and she doesn't commit whiskey to memory, which means these types of episodes are more "play by play" from me and "color commentary" from her. It's our dynamic, what she likes best, and what works for us.
Whether you can or cannot get them, it doesn’t change the fact that they scored what they did completely blind. To say otherwise would be dishonest. Shame you didn’t stick around as over half the bottles on the list are readily available. The fact that those also scored great along with these allocated bottles speaks volumes to how good they are, hence why the list was presented in the order that we chose.

I can't believe that you've now tasted over 500 whiskies! Congrats and Cheers to your next 500! Great video!

Love your content !!!
Tons of work put into this vid! Great job and congrats on the success.

I love the JD Single Barrel Selects!! Also love the Barrel Proof version..
I'm onboard with your list and agree, the last pick JDBP Rye is scrumptious. Got about 1/3 left in mine after 2 months-trying to savor it.

wait a minute. Bruichladdich is not Welsh, but Penderyn is. Very good single malt.
You can buy Amrut here in the US

What watch are you wearing, Sir?

@@stuffandwhiskey cool watch! 👍
Love the JD SBBP Rye!! Have you guys tried Smokeye Hill Barrel Proof? It won Bourbon of the year at the ASCOTS over ECBP C923 and GTS. It’s fantastic for a 5 year old.
When I heard Traveller Blended Whiskey did well at the ASCOTS it makes me wonder about *anything* they say.
Haha! Very true!
We haven't tried it yet but have a line on a bottle. Very interested in seeing what all the buzz is about.
The 94 proof Jack Daniel's SiB ryes are another great shelfer nobody is talking about. Love your takes on international spirits!👍🏾👍🏾
Still have EG BP A122, B522, C923 ;-) need to revisit Rare Breed. Love Sagamore double oak and sherry finish. JD BP Rye is one of my favorites as well
I need to try Rye, so thanks for these recommendations.
You should try out the tumblin dice double oaked!
Great video and some awesome bottles represented. Nice job! Love the watch. What is it?
Thanks! It's a Seiko "Turtle" reference SRPE93 on an olive drab nato strap.

Knob Creek Bourbonxrye
So the travel stuff - if I'm in Europe and find a bottle in Duty Free, can it be carry on (unopened) if you have a few hops before you get home?
I’d check airline regulations there just to be safe. We fly very little.
Watching all these whisky videos from youtube reminds me of my fragrance jouney like 7 years ago. When i see the same liquor recommended on multiple chanels, im buying it and trying it. lol.

Completely agree on JSSiBBP Rye. I'd take the EC C923 as my #1
i still have the 13th colony double oaked first release. everybody i knew in georgia had a bottle or two at one point now we can hardly find a bottle lol
Great to see Penderyn, Bruichladdich, and Amrut on your list. Try Paul John Brilliance for another good unpeated whisky from India.
I have a mammoth Rye single barrel pick that is one of the best I’ve had
Four square was everywhere in Chicago as of last week. Binnys even had a SP.
Do you guys always drink pure? or also sometimes on the rocks?
I (Josh) am not a huge fan of cold whiskey. Erin will get low proof ryes on the rocks if we’re at a concert or bar but never really at home.
@@stuffandwhiskey Good to know thank you! 💪

IIRC we had two there and it was one of them!
B5/22 is my fave the only one I have a backup for
Never tried any BTAC bottles. From the ones I've tried on your list, the Amrut stands out.
From one Hilltopper to another, don’t be a bore, Josh. Respect Erin.
We'd have to rewatch to catch the reference but there is no shortage of respect from either of us toward the other.
Love the Seiko watch 😍

I am surprised Stagg did not make your list. The Elijah Craig Barrel Proof is like fire water compared to it.

My wife says JD Rye barrel proof is the best bottle that we have. I have to agree it's possibly the best.
What are some of the other Foursquares you like better than the Nobiliary?!
Touchstone may be my top choice and Erin has enjoyed Isonomy a ton. We’ve also really enjoyed the yearly vintages as well.
It’s funny, that in one of the latest shorts, Erin said that WLW tasted like a rubber tire!!
I will say I’ve been on the Jack Daniel’s tour and they say about 100 times “we’re not makin’ bourbon today” etc 😂
😂😂 to be fair, tour guides reciting the sales pitch vs the master distiller himself saying it’s bourbon are two different things.
What I think is funny about the ECBP is that they don't seem to care about criticism ... they just do what they do, and they get people to talk about their booze anyway 😉I've never had one that I thought wasn't worth the price, but that's just me.

Josh - do I spy a Captian Willard ? If so I salute you sir.
Wish it were a Willard! It's just a Turtle, which is Willard-esque, but not quite the same thing. This is a SRPE93.
That’s a lot of tastings and reviews!
It definitely is!
No Irish whiskeys?? Red Breast?
It hasn’t scored highly for the both of us double blind, but we’ve only had a limited range of bottles double blind as well. We’re big fans of Redbreast cask strength.
For me a two thumbs up is Widow Jane Decadence
Double blind or bust!
WHISKEY CHEERS 😎
Don’t sleep on Westward American Single Malt!
I love you two now. Handsome boy and pretty girl🎉
I keep looking for the Non-Chill Kickin Chicken everytime I go to Japan and they never have it. #sadpanda
Our first bottle ever came from Japan duty free and we recently stocked up in Canada duty free. It's a moving target to be sure!
There's only two bottles on this list that I could even find or afford. Not very useful to the average bourbon drinker.
The video was the best scoring bottles blind. We’re just relaying those scores. Hard for us to know availability everywhere but over half these are available in most markets and/or available online from retailers that ship direct.
So….4 thumbs up?
Dude, you talk too much. Let your wife talk more. I like ryes and want to hear from her more!
With all due respect, I don't "let her talk." She talks as much as she wants to. I'm the whiskey nerd and she doesn't commit whiskey to memory, which means these types of episodes are more "play by play" from me and "color commentary" from her. It's our dynamic, what she likes best, and what works for us.
Sooooo in the first 10 minutes you give us whiskies I or the general public can’t get!!! You lost me. I’m not watching anything that is fiction to me.
Whether you can or cannot get them, it doesn’t change the fact that they scored what they did completely blind. To say otherwise would be dishonest.
Shame you didn’t stick around as over half the bottles on the list are readily available. The fact that those also scored great along with these allocated bottles speaks volumes to how good they are, hence why the list was presented in the order that we chose.
