Thanks for having me on the video, really enjoyed it! 🥃
Thank you for the local knowledge!
Great seeing you on the video Marshall!
The word is "embezzled" not embelished. But made for a wicked good ROFL. Thank you for that as i needed it today.
Thats the second comment on the style of labeling 😂 You’re welcome I reckon
Dude that new Maker's release is great, I don't care what anyone else says. I think it's a great pour when compared with the other license plate stuff.
Freaking great to drop a video to watch while at work! Thanks and keep it coming.
Thanks! Will do! Are you working hard or hardly working?
@@Bourbon_Hunter unfortunately busy. Have to watch inbetween ambulance calls. Much needed break from the world.
Thank you for your public service! Keep up the good work!
Just picked up a half gallon at city liquor! Store owner is great and very appreciative of the plug!
Great to hear!
I know you hate Amburana but that Rare Character Rye Amburana is the cream of the crop. No notes of hot tamales. Just sweet cinnamon toast crunch!
You were right. JW Dant is a major sleeper for the price
100%
Heck yeah!
Ok, so I love Marshall and his channel… great video! That looked like a lot of fun! But that Makers Mark Wood Finishing snag at the end was crazy! Can’t wait to hear how good it is!
Also, that JW Dant is legit for the price. The JTS Brown is also a bottom shelf banger too! 🥃
Right on! PANDAAAAAA thank you for watching my friend!
Great concept! Ever come back to DC, happy to give you a tour of other DC stores.
Nice snag on the MM ❤ Release! My buddy was in KY a couple of weeks ago when they were released and got me 3 from the distillery! I’m a big fan of their Wood Finishing series so super excited to crack one open!
Liked to see a man take a look at the rebel 100 that stuff is solid
Love listening to Marshall and Alison on their channel. I wish them the best of luck. Love that Belle Meade Reserve.
Marshall’s a cool cat for sure
I finally tried makers cask strength for the first time pretty recently and i really enjoyed it tbh. Excited to try their other higher proof stuff
Glad you like them! A whole new world is open now!
@@Bourbon_Hunter just picked up some 46 cask strength and a private Select. I'm gonna taste all 3 next to each other to see what I like best!
Everything that Woodinville has put out is gold and worth the price IMO. I do live in the PNW so I could be biased but when I have buddies come over and try their limited stuff they agree with me it's damn good.
Great vid- my old college stomping grounds. I used to live off of Rosewood Dr where my whiskey world consisted of Makers, Beam and Evan Williams. Never any fancier than that but created a good foundation. Cheers to the formative years!
You and I took a page outa the same book! Cheers! 🥃🤙🏼
I have a Belle Meade open in my collection right now. Good stuff.
Good choice! Its a solid pour to keep around
I love it that you have Marshall on this video. I watch, but this is the first time commenting. I agree, I am not a fan of Oak & Eden. Nice deal on the Buffalo Trace. Buffalo Trace makes a very good Old Fashioned. That Peg Leg Porker is really good. Marshall found it! Russell's Reserve Single Barrel Store Pick is soooo good. Hirsch and The Murray Hill are both really good. Thanks for the fun video. You always do a nice job.
Thank you! Happy to know you’re watching! Marshall is cool and it was a pleasure to have him on!
That Angel Envy select is actually really good. Picked one up last week, really unique
They are good no doubt! Worth $110 after tax? Idk about all that
@@Bourbon_Hunter yeah I don’t blame you there, I got mine on a military base, so only walked out paying $89.90
Tried the RC Exceptional Series at a bottle share. Drank way too hot
I have found six bottles in one store in Kansas. I bought two of them. I paid $49.95 for each bottle.
The Rye that got me onboard was Knob Creek7 y/o .. Wished we had the Sagamore's to try down here :( And the answer to what is better the 12 or 18 yo Knob Creek the answer is the 15yo knob creek ;) Im assuming its small batch not cask strength.
I recently found an Elijah Craig pick in DC that was 10 years and 129.6 proof 🔥
JW Dant is a definite sleeper for what it is
Heaven Hill Sauce
We have a ton of the Black Label Belle Meade here in Mid-TN.
i used to hate makers mark, now it is one of my fav's
So true. I used to think it was hot now its soft and sweet
Found a Belle Meade Reserve at a hole in the wall shop here in town and was only 60$. Snatched it up and LOVE IT!
Heck yeah!!!! Congrats on the solid pick up!
It's a great bottle! One of our favorites.
Anytime I find a 1.75 of Weller SR or BT for 55 or less I grab it. Makes great cocktails and they’re solid low proof pours. Cheers y’all and congrats on the finds!
Thank you for watching! 🥃
The New Riff Single Barrel ($55) is better than the $200 bottle of 2XO
I love both! One is a Double Oak and the other is a straight bourbon but they both have their place on my shelf!
Damn picked up The Heart. I'm looking for that one
I opened it last night is freaking incredible!
Firefly is actually owned by locals in Charleston. I believe Sazerac has the license to produce some of their products outside of SC
There are 2 belle mead reserves, the 108 "regular" and one that says cask strength and has a written proof.
Ahhh! My bad ive never seen the hand written label
@@Bourbon_Hunterthe hand written ones were older releases and the proof would vary. All sourced MGP
I could never just walk into an ABC here in North Carolina and find a Blantons sitting on a barrel
Blantons is good but not worth a dime over $85-90
I do it all the time one time in Winston the manager asked if I wanted a Blantons
@@Bourbon_Hunter honestly not a dime over $70
In Australia its in abundance on every shelf in every store and its msrp.. wished we had Weller !
Great video! I found a 750ml of that embossed Maker's Mark Cask Strength at a mom and pop store in Memphis. Bottled 2016-03. 🥃
I've got 3 bottles of the Belle Meade Black label. 1 that is open with 1 pour out of it and 2 backups!
Geeeesh!! I only have one and its half empty! Might have some
Tonight
that's good info about the higher floor jdsbbp 375's. will start looking at the labels better
I had no clue! Thats why he is the bourbon nerd
@@Bourbon_Hunter did a little digging online looks like barrel houses #8 and #13 are supposedly the highest ones in lynchburg. but coy hill is from the upper tiers of those warehouses.
You really should try that RDOne Oak & Maple double finished (brown label) since you love Widow Jane Decadence. It's a fantastic maple finished bourbon, and the double finish makes it have great depth aside from just maple-y sweetness.
And affordable and finable! I’ll give it a try at the next bottle share! Thank you for watching!
Felt like a setup to find that bottle on an “audible” call to stop at your old store but maybe it’s legit. Doesn’t really matter because the exiting is engaging and I enjoyed it. Your videos share some of the better ones out there as of late.
Marshall I need back up! You shoulda heard the phone call! “You’re gonna pass a publix on your right and theres a BP gas station. Next to that is a liquor store pull in there on the way to bottles and lets check” totally random loved how it worked out tbh! Thank you for watching!
@@Bourbon_Hunter I can assure you there are several cars on the road that can attest to me swerving into a BP looking like a total maniac to get to that store😂
@@StraightUpSips 😂 yeah. Straight audible
While traveling through Tennessee last month found a store with cases of Belle Meade sitting on the floor. I walked out with a case.
Letsssss Goooooo. Did I hear you say you have not cracked the black top ET😮
Not yet bro! I need to buy the blue cap a film a Patreon Video!
I picked up that Belle Meade 108 proof in Sumter SC a couple of weeks ago
Sumter! Heck yeah! Great scoop 🥃
how do u stay so positive lol love ur content
Listen to a lot of Reggae
@@Bourbon_Hunter secret weed channel coming soon?
I do not partake lol
That Belle Meade is very good. I have it and the New Nelson Green Briar Reserve and it's no contest. You can taste hints of them being similar but one is like a B+ and the other is a C. The older Belle Meade Reserve with higher proof are actually A+s but I've only ever seen the 108s. You can find them at 40% of the stores around St. Louis and the price ranges from $55-75. I've actually put a big dent into the one I have. Hoped that the Nelson Green Briar was close but it's not so I'll have to head out and get a bunker bottle of it in case there is ever a run on the remainder.
Love the Prez in the background in Bottles
Elijah Craig must of held bottles of the ECBP B523 because I saw it on the shelf out here in SoCal last week.
Thats crazy! I wonder if they are artificially flooding the market with delayed releases
Good times, good friends and good bourbon!
You got that right!
Was that Jack Rose in the back screen? Lol
Awesome vid again! I'm 90 mins from Columbia, do you recall what floor the RR SiB store pics where?
Ahhhh no I dont you can probably try and pause the video on it tho
@Bourbon_Hunter I tried lol, but the light was too bright today. Oh wellz. Keep up the amazing work!!
Love your channel. I really enjoy you pointing out bottles that aren’t just unicorns, however, we need to talk about your method of payment. Stop using debit and only use credit cards.
Second comment about my payment method. Why is debit so spooky?
Belle Meade Reserve is excellent, I see it I buy it! I found a store with probably 8 bottles on the shelf so can grab it at will. I recommend it folks, it's done for! Nelson Bros Reserve is the replacement and I have yet to A/B them but have seen people who have and it seems the new release doesn't hold up to the BMR.
True. We've blinded them and the BMR won for both of us.
That would be hall of famer Ed Belfour, hockey player lol
Made in NC too! Crazy! Im not a hockey guy so excuse my ignorance
@@Bourbon_Hunter ha! No biggie. I think his stuff is overpriced. And I didn’t think he was hall of fame caliber anyway haha
Yo I bought that 12 knob Creek 12 for $48
No freaking way
KC12 is $64.99 all day here in CT everywhere. Sometimes less!
Man I thought I got a good deal at 60 lol
Yeah and it was right down the block from my house at a place I would never go to. But I happened to go in there and I looked and I saw that and I grabbed that a few about a week later I saw 1792 he had three bottles at $49 a piece I bought those. They were great! I think it was fulll proof and one other single barrel f@@phatkidd100
I hope this taught you to always wipe your camera lens before recording 😂
I had the foresight to grab 8 bottles of Belle Meade after the announcement when they were plentiful. Haven’t seen a bottle on the shelf in about 3 months
Thats why I thought this challenge was impossible
I would’ve grabbed that woodenville moscatel finish 😅
Can't believe you passed on that Rare Character " The Exceptional Series " its bomb-diddity 😢
Ive had a few of them and they are so darn good! Just wasn’t in the budget for the day!
Driftless Glen is very good
9 yr TYK RR I'm buying that in a heartbeat!
I have 4 picks and really don’t have any space for more! I did try it and can confirm its amazing!
my total wine had those belle Meades a few weeks ago on sale for $53
Woulda backed the truck up to take them off their hands
We would have bought a case at that price.
That Sagamore DO is so good.
Its the bourbon lovers Rye!
Also blended with MGP 🤣@@Bourbon_Hunter
Mike’s the GOAT!
Magic Mike!
$70 for a Russel’s pick is great. They are $92.00 here now.
Gooooooodnesssss! Where are you located? Thats tough
@@Bourbon_Hunter About 2 hours from the distillery. Funny the closer you get the more it costs. I’m in Owensboro Ky.
Old dom is fantastic too! Missed out!
Definitely give that Stellum Fibonacci Blend a try. It’s a great rye whiskey and now that the price is coming down on them a bit it is even better. One of my favorite ryes. If you didn’t buy that Belfour for $38 I’m going to riot. 😂 It’s a solid bottle that I would buy at $38 every time.
Is Belfour that good? I want to get it to support the Eagle but it's so young.
@@rrkaminski9I really like their Single Barrel options. The main offerings are decent but due to being more on the craft side they are a little overpriced but not horribly. I usually have at least one bottle on the shelf at all times. Yeah I’m probably a bit biased as a Stars fan but Eddie and his family have done a great job with this venture in my opinion.
You don't want the Old Dominick BIB - you want to find the Barrel Proof. The BIB is fine but the Barrel Proof are excellent - but impossible to find now. About a week after the Brewzle video I headed over to a store I knew had one hidden on their shelf with Jack Daniels (they are in a bougie neighborhood so no one looks at that shelf). It was still there and I bought it for $65. It's actually great - he got that one right. I'd tried their BIB earlier in the year and thought it was terrible but maybe I tried the Tennessee whiskey and not the bourbon. The one I bought is the bourbon.
Gottcha! Thank you for the heads up!
But can we really talk about the “FU all the time” bourbon?? What the heck. Lol. How did you not talk about that one lol
Furman University
Something’s going on with heaven hill because I also just found ecbp B522 on my shelves locally which is super bizarre.
Crazy because thats like 2022 which is like an eternity in Bourbon years
26:29 How is that Hirsch a single barrel with a blend breakdown on the label?
Didn’t notice that till now. You’re onto something
I've had the J. Rieger Monogram - yeah it's a HARD pass at the $170 price (and that's basically retail). It is a HEAVILY wine finished bourbon. Basically you get the sherry and malt and not in a pleasing scotch way. It's super harsh and play doughy. It's weird. I'm glad I tried it at a bar for $10 just to remove all curiosity. J. Rieger has a 6 year BIB bourbon and Rye and those are decent buys for $50. Problem is they are located 25 minutes from Ben Holladay... and yeah Holladay BIB is now 7 years and it just demolishes J. Rieger. Holladay doesn't have a rye so I guess they win there.
Bro, I know you know like Penelope but if you try Valencia and Rio, you might like it
Rio isnt half bad just impossible to find for MSRP and not worth Secondary. Valencia is alright. Not worth the $90 its fetches on shelfs tho
JW Dant is a great bottle!
I found a Buffalo Trace 1.75 L for 44 dollars at Kroger earlier this week! Insane
Should grabbed 2! Lol! 🥃
Dant is the truth. It's Heaven Hill distillate. Guys at Justin's House of Bourbon recommended it to the sound guys for Katy Perry when they came in looking for bourbon.
Everybody talkin about that dant! Its a sleeper! Thank you for watching!
The woodinville moscatel fininished bottle is not an easy one to find!
Is it worth $100 tho?
@Bourbon_Hunter doubtful, but Ive never seen it to try.
24:31 Redemption bourbon 🤤
So I'am told James E Pepper 1776 is the same juice as the Decanter for a lot less ?? Would love to come across a Belle Meade never ever saw one ..... Thanks
I think they are indistinguishable to most people
you skipped on the old soul blue label store pick! (18.07) i was yelling at the screen! dude, you missed out big time!
Ive had a few of those and they are soooo good! I just need to buy another one day 🥃
Bro, I go to Orlando to location last week and I found double eagle rare in the bar nice bar and they won 500 bucks for 1 ounce. What do you think about that?
Lame. Don’t do it
Great pickups on this MMs. Hirsch Sib last year was in my top 3, Willett.
One guy made a great point. Is it a single barrel when its a blend of those two on the back label?
I read why but can’t remember exactly, but it was along the lines of 2 single barrels combined I believe. Kind of like the Lux Row Double Single Barrel.
Either way, it sat at Big Red Cask in Indy for days and I’m really glad I grabbed.
Clean The Lenses bro, thanks for the content
Thank you for the heads up! Sometimes lighting in stores can make it look a little wacky too but i got you!
Can’t go wrong with Maker’s 🥃😎
This bottle is so darn good! Thank you for watching!
@@Bourbon_Hunter plan to crack mine tonight 🥃
Just picked up 2 bottles belle made 56 bucks each
Hunter said he would have bought you any bottle.and you end up with Buffalo Trace. Don't get me wrong a good bottle but no limit was set. Go back and get that KC18😂
He said he never see’s buffalo trace in town so figured we’d strike while the iron is hot
1:54 Another great tube. Scored the Tater Trifecta last week : BT$25 ER$33 Blantons $67
Absolute steal! Well done!
I bet anything he paid 125 for the Blanton’s :)
BT 25, ER $33, BL$66@@jeremywarren5748
Why why why why would Angel's envy make the back of their single barrel bottles flat. That is such a miss. That bottle looked sexy from the front.
Im just as disgusted as you
