Hey, everyone! Hope you enjoyed the video! Huge shout-out to Joseph for sending us a lovely engraved bottle of Blue Label! Also, it was mentioned in the pinned comments of last week's videos but for those who missed it, we're going to be having a mix of new content filmed without the divider and content filmed with the divider for the next while. So, don't be surprised if you see the divider screen show up again, it's just from content filmed earlier in the year! Sláinte! 😊🍻😁
That Blue Label is literally priced the same as my month's rent, including the electric, gas and water bill! ... Thank you Joseph Madden for this!!! This was the coolest video EVER!!!
@Trucker Kev The Paid Tourist Unfortuately, no. Still can't guarantee a package arriving safely if it has alcohol, sadly. To be honest, unsure how Joseph managed to get it to us - it was quite the surprise when it showed up! 😅
Blue label was my dad’s favorite scotch. He passed away last week and we had a shot of it at the funeral home and put the rest of the bottle in the casket with him.
I'm with you. Black is the baseline of what a solid scotch is for me. Green is outstanding. Blue is very, very nice - but yeah, way too much $$. I'm more of a bourbon guy for the most part - a bit because I feel like you can get a better quality whiskey for the $ by far.
Im a bourbon guy myself and have a pretty nice selection of bourbons. But I also keep some Canadian, Irish, Japanese and scotch whisky’s as well. The scotch I keep in case i have a guest that prefers scotch is green label. It’s good, but I got a small sample blue label and will be switching out the green for the blue as i only have room for one.
@Aphabet21 same - always have at least 2-4 good ryes, a Canadian, a couple Irish, a handful of scotches, maybe a Japanese and 10-20 bourbons - whiskeys are probably half the cabinet.
The tryers seemed surprised and touched that someone would appreciate them enough to send them an expensive gift. I don't know about anyone else, but I thoroughly enjoy watching (most) of the tryers experience new foods, beverages, etc. Over the course of many videos, the viewers have come to look at the tryers as friends and maybe even family members. Sharing the experiences will bring hearts and minds together. Kudos all around.....
Many RUclipsrs get gifts from their viewers and patreons. Given the nature of their channel, I think they could easily be flooded with various kinds of alcohol by people who want then to try it or enjoy it. Likewise various snacks and candies from different countries. They just need to put it out there.
@@macmcleod1188 the Try Channel has long been receiving food and drink products to try in a video that were donated by Payrins if the channel. They briefly had to halt this during the pandemic last year but they have since resumed the practice. While most items sent aren’t as expensive as the €200 JW Blue whiskey in the vid, people are still sending in gifts to try, though sometimes the producers also procure some items to try for some videos too, that come from local establishments, especially for the videos featuring ethnic cuisine served hot and fresh or British items easily procurable in Ireland (or via a short trip to the UK.).
Bought the Red, Black, Green, Gold and Blue labels for my Dad’s 50th birthday gift years ago. I particularly remember the gold was wonderfully smooth and velvety. Rest easy, Dad.

For one shoot, we need to change the Try Channel to the Tri-Channel so we can get a whiskey shoot with Dermot, Martin, and Ciara together. They'll all be in suits a la Reservoir Dogs and every one of them can get a 10 out of 10 without any worries of copyright infringement. And I don't have to struggle with which Tryer pairing is best. I'd throw Clisare into the mix but Tri works better as a pun than Quad.
As of this post 21,958 views and 3.1K likes but no one would watch, The two of you drink. Guess that you don't know your viewers to well. Just kidding great content, well done.
I agree that Martin should have been here. However, the best part of the Try Channel is seeing the negative reactions to food and drink. Martin would not have given a negative reaction in this video.
Joseph Madden, you're a good and generous man for sending Johnny's Blue label one of the best Blended Scotch Whiskeys in the world so others can enjoy it!
I was offered a glass of JW Blue Label for graduating university and I don't know if it was made sweeter by the occasion, but I literally moaned as I took a swig. That's quite a generous gift as a bottle, thanks Joseph for sharing.
@@supermom23 I dunno about that, I think Ciara is just one of those naturally flirty, handsy girls that enjoy a good night out. And she's comfortable with him (and he with her).

El mejor del mundo, el Blue Label de Johnnie Walker. Un Johnnie Walker etiqueta negra lo tomo, pero cuando es algo especial un Blue Label. Es un elissir. Y el otro es un whisky: uno se toma, el otro se saborea. El etiqueta negra para tomar fuerte después de las seis y el Blue Label para cualquier hora. Lo podés tomar a la mañana, jamás te va a agarrar acidez ni gastritis ni nada. Es un elissir.

Agreed Stephen!! It was very cool to finally discover the source of Ciara’s strong stomach and tastebuds... her sisters were evil science experimenters! Thank God they didn’t take their experiments too far... and it produced the IronWoman that is Ciara. ☺️👍🥰
@@davidroynewby Thank you David! That Blue Label effect on the Tryers prompted me to track down a bottle and found one locally that came in a set with two high-end whiskey glasses. It is a beautiful set and am saving it for Christmas. I wish I could share it with the folks in the video. 😎
Is funny how slowly they became whiskey experts as the video progress, at the beginning was like: oh is good I like it!, and towards the end is like: well from this one you can taste all the edges and tones, plus the taste of the barrel... haha great video guys! love it 😄
I love seeing that progression at whisky tasting events. People turn up saying "I don't know much about whisky..." and by the end they're joining the club because "...well we can't miss out on the 18yo sherry cask next month."
Yeah well, I grew up the youngest of six in an Irish family. They didn't make me eat anything, but my sister Maureen tried to drown me when I was four. And everyday they told me I was ugly and stupid. Uh...yeah I think I would have preferred eating dirt.
This was one of, if not THE best of the drinking videos that I've watched on the TRY channel, and there's been a lot of them. Actual good wit mixed with sincerity? That's a solid eleven out of ten.
@@AlexSadof 100%. I tried the Blue Label in a tasting set of all bar the Double Black. It was pleasant but I would rather go out and grab say an Ancnoc 24 for the money
This explains soooo much! Ciara has always been one of my favorite testers, mainly for her ability to drink almost anything short of gasoline and find its delightful bouquet. Now we know she's been training since childhood. If there was an Olympic event for cast iron stomachs, she'd be a gold medalist. :)
such a beautiful and fun woman, love her in the drinking segments. She gets tipsy easy because she isn't a large person and after a bit she gets a bit sleep eyed and smiley and red cheeked lol. But she does down it very easy and obviously isn't new to the drinking game.
Joseph Madden the MVP. I've been hoping a set of glens would finally show up in these whiskey videos! Donating a blue label on top too! I hope Martin gets to experience a pour before the bottle is empty.
Ok, so THAT'S why Ciara is the way she is! 😳 Dermont was correct, we finally found the answer! 😂I'd never have picked that on a BINGO card of options! 🤣 Sláinte!
8:51 She finally got her smoke! :) These are a bunch of fun people. I think hanging out with them, and with Mr. Peaty Nuances would be a blast. Great video.
When Ciara rests her head on her left hand, and looks straight into Dermots eyes, and flutters her eyelashes. How does he not melt. I would be speechless!
I loved watching the lot of you! Ciara and Dermot get so much attention, which is deserved, but you all were a pleasure to watch! My wee glass of Macallan 12 enjoyed the video as well
Not a big fan of the old Johnny Walker even though Scots whisky is my go-to. But to be fair, the differences in aging are very apparent with this line. As blends go, Johnny Walker Blue is very good but I would prefer to play in the single malt field. And also a big tip of the old hat to Joseph Madden. That was a very generous and very considerate gift.
Totally agree. Didn't think I liked Scotch at all because all I'd tried was blended Scotch -- then I had a decent single malt and it opened up my world. For me these days, the only thing I'd use JW for is in a mixed drink. Although I will admit I've never tried Blue -- at over $200 a bottle, it's nothing I was ever that tempted to buy -- but it's possible that I'd find that palatable to drink on its own.
@@DJHolte someone had to say what I was thinking. Not much a fan of JW. I picked up a small bottle of the blue from the duty free. My friend and I both tried it same time and agreed “Meh”. Good but too expensive when you can get better single malts for less. Gimme an Ardbeg or Laphroaig 10yr. Or any year Balvenie. Or Aberlour A’bunadh. Or many other great single malts
I have been waiting for a TRY every flavor Johnnie Walker video for some time. Awesome! Christmas came early!!! 😂🤣 BTW, Black Label is not that much more expensive than Red.
It's a shame they left out the best 3 and in my opinion the only good ones from Johnnie Walker; Gold Label, Double Black Label, and the best one Green Label.
There were a couple of johnnies missing there and they are actually very very good. On top of my head i can name double black, green label and gold label
For anyone wondering, the idea behind smelling the whiskey while also inhaling through your mouth is that the extra air forcing itself past will stop the alcohol vapors from building up in your sinuses and burning your nose as quickly.
My Grandparents lived in Walkerville where Johnny was made. Granddad was a Scot and appreciated the benefits that strong drink could provide in troubling times, which happened to come quite often in them days.
From those selections, I can say that you like the smoke. I would highly recommend the Green Label as it might have been mislabeled as Green rather than Black because it is smokier than the Black and th3 Double Black, with fruity notes too. For the price point, I'd choose it over the Blue Label. Blue is overpriced.
Did anyone else think the silver Fox looks like Littlefinger? Did TRY do that on purpose? Lol these videos are GREAT. Thank you! Dermot and his eyebrows snorting the whiskey!!!!! Is everything
Actually, Dermot is probably spot on with his insight into Ciara's seemingly unique ability to ignore the tastes and smells of things that would be offensive to most other folks. There's nothing like being a young child with older siblings to deal out a bit of trauma; and if her siblings were forcing her to eat disgusting things, of course there would be a lasting ability that has morphed into something less traumatic.
Ciara is definitely unique and I agree with you. She doesn’t like being like everyone else. She is so entertaining to watch, especially along with Dermot.
@@nasferatu8461 do you mean torf? thats the "ground" in some scottish eras. they dig it up and burn it, that smoke gives scottish whiskeys their special flavor
I can just hear Martin somewhere watching this saying 'How DARE you.' Also, I love that you chose Dermot trying to sniff with his mouth open as the thumbnail. 😂 *chef kiss* Well played.
Wow. Didn't expect to learn Ciara's origin story today. She's has a true Irish heart because the country was literally force-fed to her. Far more compelling than Wonder Woman, if you ask me.
OOOOOHHHHHHHH..... DIRT! THAT's what you Irish folks were talking about. I had no clue wtf you were saying. All this time i was wondering what in all of God's realms of possibilities is "Terf".
I have been with the try channel since they started over 2 years ago and have slowly..... overtime come to love all of them and their idiosyncrasies that make them human. Each and everyone of the producers (ie Kellie, Seån, and Colin) and tryers make me smile and convert a crappy day into a great day!! You definitely seem to almost always show up happy and ready to have fun and it shows!! Keep up the great work!! Luv ya guys!!
Ciara is just lovely. A hell of a drinker, doesn't bat an eye at violently spicy food, hilarious, and a Spinal Tap reference! And it's alright, Jamie, I read epitome the same way every damn time.
I really like this channel! The reactions to the drinks and food are great. I will definitely stay away from anything with durian fruit in it. I am saving up to make a trip to Ireland for the summer.
I've been convinced with previous videos that Ciara and Dermot would be insanely fun to have drinks with, and this video solidifies it tbh. Love their energy. Also holy shit, not just a lucky bunch getting to try some Blue Label, but having an engraved bottle sent by a fan. Been a fan of the Black Label, but this really makes me want to save for a bottle of Blue. Great video!
Johnnie Walker Blue Label, now that is a gift fit for Kings and Queens! That actually makes up for the Durian Fruit episodes that you put poor Justine through. Sadly, she did not get to partake of the liquid gold that was sent to you. WAIT, you should do a second shoot with Martin, Justine, Clare, Callyann and Ciara (because I like Ciara, don't tell her).
I tried it years ago. My wife's cousin at the the time, asked me what I thought. I told him it was an old man's drink. Scotch is not for me. And my former brother-in-law was a conceited ass. He got it as a gift from a client.
Oh man. Lol please do Glendranoch, Aberlour, Glengloyne, Lagavulin, Arbeg, Highland Park or one of the other great Scotch whiskies out there next time.
Opened a bottle of Glendronach 33yo for my friends at a past Christmas party. To date, one of the best sherried Scots whiskies ever. Cannot fault your list at all but might add Glenmorangie Côte de Nuits and Dalmore 30yo Stillman's Dram. Scots whisky is such a wonderful world to explore.
@@joshholmes1372 in Russia they make whiskies and just call them "Glen something or another" (like Glen Forest or Glen Eagles) to make it seem as if they're Scottish.
The wee Scotsman in me is delighted to see this one. Red, black, blue, green and gold. I've not tried their Game of Thrones editions but Blue is amazeballs! Ballantine's 12yr old is my blended Scotch of choice.
I had the GoT Song of Ice one. It was very easy drinking. I'm not a big fan on Scotch, but that one was nice. I also liked Dalwhinnie's House of Stark. Not sure if that gives you a clue as to my usual taste profile or not. I recommend both of them.
Absolutely. I've been flirting with the idea of moving abroad. Greece has always been my choice destination, but this channel has put Ireland up there. If all Irish people are like the Try cast, then it's gotta be lovely.
As a Scot and a confirmed pisshead this vlog was a joy to watch. The intelligence and alcoholic knowledge of the reviewers was plainly evident...you sent me to the cabinet to pour myself a large dram. Also haven't laughed so hard for quite some time, great job guys.
I just discovered this channel for the first time, and binge watched ~20 episodes... Completely echoing Dermot's bafflement, Ciara's explanation about her childhood explains *_so_* much that was in question.
Dermot Ciara Martin and Leather Jacket guy need to have a "Whiskey Face-off" Tasting/comparing/guessing the whiskeys they drink 🙂 Love this channel and all of your guys content
What would be really fun to watch is mixing up the labels (without telling them) on these kinds of taste tests. Partially to combat the bias of expecting a fancy label to taste better, but mostly to f* -- mess with testers' minds.
Johnnie Walker Blue is my all time favorite scotch, then Johnnie Walker Double Black! Ive never enjoyed a scotch whiskey video as this one, these people are freaking amazing! Funny, interesting and very personable, Id love these guys as friends! Great video and I had to subscribe. Thanks for a great 14:34 minuets of pure fun ..
Johnny Walker Blue is flat out, the best, most fav whiskey I've ever had. Yes it's true you can drink about the entire bottle as it's so lovely. Highly recommend it!
@@Guilkdp I"ve had em. I've traveling and lived al over the world. In parts of the Middle East...you can get some way way cheaper than the west/USA.

Ok, so THAT'S why Ciara is the way she is! 😳 Dermont was correct, we finally found the answer! 😂I'd never have picked that on a BINGO card of options! 🤣 Sláinte!
There's nothing more fortifying than sibling-induced trauma...
This whole video had me laughing but Dermot's continuous pestering about the German accent and Ciara's animated responses killed me.
Of all the try channels that are out there this is absolutely hands down my favorite
Those video goes out to poor ol' Petey Nuances.
Paddy, when are u putting out new content on your channel????
@@jasonbroad5478 I have a bunch of content I have been meaning to edit for a while but I just got a new laptop so hopefully soon. 😅
RIP Petey, crushed by a stack of newspapers pushed over by his wife.
@@PaddyMurphy Good to hear. You definitely had a "voice" and your content was fun. Regards from LA
"If I was to go for an aged scotch, I'd probably go for Rod Stewart" I'm DYING. Dermot makes me so happy. Laughed my ass off
I had a brain fart and got mixed up with Rhod Gilbert for a sec and thought "he's not old and he's Welsh, not Scottish"
I got there in the end 😅
I was thinking Robert Carlyle, myself.
8:51 She finally got her smoke! :)
These are a bunch of fun people. I think hanging out with them, and with Mr. Peaty Nuances would be a blast. Great video.
When Ciara rests her head on her left hand, and looks straight into Dermots eyes, and flutters her eyelashes. How does he not melt. I would be speechless!
Dónal and Jamie are two kids in detention who found their teacher's liquor cabinet.
How much are teachers paid where you are??
@@extendoduck the teacher was gifted the alochol, lol. She won it in a raffle at the bingo...! 😆
Spot on!
A liquor cabinet at school?
@@2bitmarketanarchist337 they're Irish. Just roll with it
I loved watching the lot of you! Ciara and Dermot get so much attention, which is deserved, but you all were a pleasure to watch! My wee glass of Macallan 12 enjoyed the video as well
Not a big fan of the old Johnny Walker even though Scots whisky is my go-to. But to be fair, the differences in aging are very apparent with this line. As blends go, Johnny Walker Blue is very good but I would prefer to play in the single malt field. And also a big tip of the old hat to Joseph Madden. That was a very generous and very considerate gift.
Totally agree. Didn't think I liked Scotch at all because all I'd tried was blended Scotch -- then I had a decent single malt and it opened up my world. For me these days, the only thing I'd use JW for is in a mixed drink. Although I will admit I've never tried Blue -- at over $200 a bottle, it's nothing I was ever that tempted to buy -- but it's possible that I'd find that palatable to drink on its own.
@@DJHolte blue label is a whole different animal and is amazing
@@DJHolte someone had to say what I was thinking. Not much a fan of JW. I picked up a small bottle of the blue from the duty free. My friend and I both tried it same time and agreed “Meh”. Good but too expensive when you can get better single malts for less.
Gimme an Ardbeg or Laphroaig 10yr. Or any year Balvenie. Or Aberlour A’bunadh. Or many other great single malts
The green label 15 is a solid buy. But I'll take a single malt any day over the blends. Johnnie walker does what they do well however.
Same. Nothing against Johnny W, but I prefer the single malts to the blends. Such is the way.
I have been waiting for a TRY every flavor Johnnie Walker video for some time. Awesome! Christmas came early!!! 😂🤣 BTW, Black Label is not that much more expensive than Red.
It's a shame they left out the best 3 and in my opinion the only good ones from Johnnie Walker; Gold Label, Double Black Label, and the best one Green Label.
@@danielbeltran5763 the green is my favourite too
There were a couple of johnnies missing there and they are actually very very good. On top of my head i can name double black, green label and gold label
I love the Green Label from that missing list. :)
@@Nemanja_Stankovic regular or island green?
@@sheldontaylor4217 I haven't tried Island Green one just yet, so I was referring to classic/regular Green Label. 😀
@nemanjastankovic9282 might be only available at a duty free.
It feels so weird to say that I truly look forward to watching these drinking videos. Thanks for making my day
For anyone wondering, the idea behind smelling the whiskey while also inhaling through your mouth is that the extra air forcing itself past will stop the alcohol vapors from building up in your sinuses and burning your nose as quickly.
My Grandparents lived in Walkerville where Johnny was made. Granddad was a Scot and appreciated the benefits that strong drink could provide in troubling times, which happened to come quite often in them days.
Johnny walker is made in Kilmarnock Ayrshire Scotland,
Rough Price for the different types.
Red - $29
Song of Fire - $26
Song of Ice - $32
Black - $33
Blue - $235
Quite different from Germany:
Red - 13€
Black - 21€
Fire - 23€
Ice - 25€
Blue - 135€
For my state
Red-$25
Fire and Ice-$20

Ontario, Canada (CAD):
Red - $32.95
Song of Ice - $42
Song of Fire - $51.95

Blue - $309.95
I love how you all were ever so grateful for the blue label gift.
The Irish have always been delightful. My favorite people by far on earth!
Joseph Madden coming out of no where and treating these fine folks is the stuff of legends. Respect, Joe! Good on you!
Thank you Joseph for allowing the gang to Keep On TRYin' !!!!!!
My wife bought me the last year of the ox blue label bottle in Canada a couple years back....what a peach.
Martin, Ciara and Dermot should do an episode of just them enjoying whiskey all at the same table. Great episode but Whiskey = Martin always!
Definitely 😁😁😁
Martin, Ciara and Dermot for the 2021 whiskey advent calendar!
Johnny Walker blue is my dad's favorite. Good stuff. Great vid. I just adore Jamie and Donal together.
My favorites are black, double black, & blue label.
From those selections, I can say that you like the smoke. I would highly recommend the Green Label as it might have been mislabeled as Green rather than Black because it is smokier than the Black and th3 Double Black, with fruity notes too. For the price point, I'd choose it over the Blue Label. Blue is overpriced.
Love watching my fellow Irishmen have a couple of drinks and enjoying themselves.
“Sipping this in a library…throwing books into the fire” is what made me hit the like button. Haha
Did anyone else think the silver Fox looks like Littlefinger? Did TRY do that on purpose? Lol these videos are GREAT. Thank you! Dermot and his eyebrows snorting the whiskey!!!!! Is everything
Actually, Dermot is probably spot on with his insight into Ciara's seemingly unique ability to ignore the tastes and smells of things that would be offensive to most other folks. There's nothing like being a young child with older siblings to deal out a bit of trauma; and if her siblings were forcing her to eat disgusting things, of course there would be a lasting ability that has morphed into something less traumatic.
Ciara is definitely unique and I agree with you. She doesn’t like being like everyone else. She is so entertaining to watch,
especially along with Dermot.

What is terf?
@@nasferatu8461 do you mean torf? thats the "ground" in some scottish eras. they dig it up and burn it, that smoke gives scottish whiskeys their special flavor
I'm glad Johnnie Walker brought back the Green Label, for the price is one if their best options and I like almost as well as the Blue.
I prefer uppee tongue
Disappointed that we didn't see the green and gold label. They would have absolutely loved gold label.
Same thought that I had. And they're using Glencairn now, which is better for the experience compared to a regular rocks glass. Cheers man. 🥃😁
The green is my favorite of the Johnnie Walker’s i’ve had, blue the close second
@@kraziasian1 Agreed!
Royal salute is the smoothest whiskey of them all,
I can just hear Martin somewhere watching this saying 'How DARE you.'
Also, I love that you chose Dermot trying to sniff with his mouth open as the thumbnail. 😂 *chef kiss* Well played.
Wow. Didn't expect to learn Ciara's origin story today. She's has a true Irish heart because the country was literally force-fed to her. Far more compelling than Wonder Woman, if you ask me.
The land is literally in her bones! 😆
the country lmao
OOOOOHHHHHHHH..... DIRT! THAT's what you Irish folks were talking about. I had no clue wtf you were saying. All this time i was wondering what in all of God's realms of possibilities is "Terf".
@@name_dropper8112 spelled turf actually if they were talking about earth. Terf is another term that is derogatory. :) just giving you a heads up.
i really hope there's a trophy case with that engraved bottle at the studio. what a gift!
Once again, from laughing at Jamie and Dónal I got in my ab workout 🤣
I have been with the try channel since they started over 2 years ago and have slowly..... overtime come to love all of them and their idiosyncrasies that make them human. Each and everyone of the producers (ie Kellie, Seån, and Colin) and tryers make me smile and convert a crappy day into a great day!! You definitely seem to almost always show up happy and ready to have fun and it shows!! Keep up the great work!! Luv ya guys!!
Ciara is just lovely. A hell of a drinker, doesn't bat an eye at violently spicy food, hilarious, and a Spinal Tap reference! And it's alright, Jamie, I read epitome the same way every damn time.
Yes, the Spinal Tap comment was true gold for me too. She earned even more points there.
I really like this channel! The reactions to the drinks and food are great. I will definitely stay away from anything with durian fruit in it. I am saving up to make a trip to Ireland for the summer.
Martin is going to hunt someone for not being included.
Exactly what I thought. Poor Martin!
Poor Martin.
This is such a good channel! Great group of people. I've only had Johnny Walker Red and black label . Would love to try the Blue .
I've been convinced with previous videos that Ciara and Dermot would be insanely fun to have drinks with, and this video solidifies it tbh. Love their energy. Also holy shit, not just a lucky bunch getting to try some Blue Label, but having an engraved bottle sent by a fan. Been a fan of the Black Label, but this really makes me want to save for a bottle of Blue. Great video!
“His marriage is on the rocks” - Brilliant, Inspired… Neat !
My favourite wiskey is in fact a good old Jameson's...much love from Zimbabwe 🇿🇼🇿🇼🇿🇼
“We’re drinking out of candle stick holders”…loved it! Another great episode.
Johnnie Walker Blue Label, now that is a gift fit for Kings and Queens! That actually makes up for the Durian Fruit episodes that you put poor Justine through. Sadly, she did not get to partake of the liquid gold that was sent to you. WAIT, you should do a second shoot with Martin, Justine, Clare, Callyann and Ciara (because I like Ciara, don't tell her).
Grand idea. Also add in Leather Jacket Guy. The channel is sadly lacking without him and John
I tried it years ago. My wife's cousin at the the time, asked me what I thought. I told him it was an old man's drink. Scotch is not for me. And my former brother-in-law was a conceited ass. He got it as a gift from a client.
Justine doesn't really like whiskey, remember?
@@albval7778 I bet she likes it more than durian fruit!
We deserve a full panoply of. 'Try Regulars' during the Holidays 🎄.. get them tea sandwiches & deli noshes' for all the alcohol they're. 'testing'.
Seriously the chemistry between Ciara and Dermot is unreal! these videos are only possible because they are the consumate professionals
I can't tell if Ciara got Dermot's Game of Thrones reference...and BZ Joseph Madden! You're awesome!
I love Ciara but yes, that one slipped by her.
what did he mean ?
@@srivallabh962 He was in that episode.
@@robertthomas4633 I never watch GOT but I might watch that episode for Dermot.
"Your Grace, the trial will be getting under way soon"
Oh man. Lol please do Glendranoch, Aberlour, Glengloyne, Lagavulin, Arbeg, Highland Park or one of the other great Scotch whiskies out there next time.
Dewar's might be an interesting one.
Glenmorangie
Any of the glen's really
Opened a bottle of Glendronach 33yo for my friends at a past Christmas party. To date, one of the best sherried Scots whiskies ever. Cannot fault your list at all but might add Glenmorangie Côte de Nuits and Dalmore 30yo Stillman's Dram. Scots whisky is such a wonderful world to explore.
@@joshholmes1372 in Russia they make whiskies and just call them "Glen something or another" (like Glen Forest or Glen Eagles) to make it seem as if they're Scottish.
9:15 lol...... John Cusack's disturbed reaction is priceless
The wee Scotsman in me is delighted to see this one. Red, black, blue, green and gold. I've not tried their Game of Thrones editions but Blue is amazeballs! Ballantine's 12yr old is my blended Scotch of choice.
I had the GoT Song of Ice one. It was very easy drinking. I'm not a big fan on Scotch, but that one was nice. I also liked Dalwhinnie's House of Stark. Not sure if that gives you a clue as to my usual taste profile or not. I recommend both of them.
I already want to go to Ireland, this channel makes me want to go even more, love it.
Absolutely. I've been flirting with the idea of moving abroad. Greece has always been my choice destination, but this channel has put Ireland up there. If all Irish people are like the Try cast, then it's gotta be lovely.
Johnnie Walker is the only Scotch my father would drink. He has passed that taste on to me. Marvelous!
As a Scot and a confirmed pisshead this vlog was a joy to watch. The intelligence and alcoholic knowledge of the reviewers was plainly evident...you sent me to the cabinet to pour myself a large dram. Also haven't laughed so hard for quite some time, great job guys.
Ciara simply adds clarity and class to any alcohol reactions.
Donal and Jamie is my favourite pairing. I'm in tears after seeing Jamie read the black label box.
I hope Dermot gets more acting jobs. I watched The Green Sea and he was good in that.
So....another show i can't watch in the US? Figures. I guess I'll just have to add it to the list. 😞
@@kandipiatkowski8589 i looked it up.. it’s a film and it looks like it’s on Prime.
He was good in it, wasn't he?
It’s so sweet how thankful they were 💙
I just discovered this channel for the first time, and binge watched ~20 episodes... Completely echoing Dermot's bafflement, Ciara's explanation about her childhood explains *_so_* much that was in question.
Still waiting for the ultimate alcohol summit featuring Dermot, Ciara, LJG and Martin! 🙏🙏🙏
Johnnie Walker Blue Label is for special occasions. You drink that when you did something you never thought would happen. It is so GOOD!
Special occasions, like when you’re thirsty.
Ciara and Dermot, you two are the best pair. Thank you all though. Keep it up. From Phoenix Arizona.
LOVE you guys! Keep up the hilarious videos!
Dermot Ciara Martin and Leather Jacket guy need to have a "Whiskey Face-off"
Tasting/comparing/guessing the whiskeys they drink 🙂
Love this channel and all of your guys content
ruclips.net/video/ayniBXbBqQ8/видео.html
Absolutely!
Watched this multiple times and I finally notice JW Blue had “The Try Channel” engraved on the bottle.
BRILLIANT!!!
Sorry, I’m a little slow 😅
What would be really fun to watch is mixing up the labels (without telling them) on these kinds of taste tests. Partially to combat the bias of expecting a fancy label to taste better, but mostly to f* -- mess with testers' minds.
Blue would never lie to anyone. You could put it in a Milwaukee's Best can and it would still knock your socks off. Special brew
To Joseph Madden, in case nobody told you this yet: you're one classy lad.
Cheers, buddy, and happy holidays.
Sláinte Joe Madden!
Johnnie Walker Blue is my all time favorite scotch, then Johnnie Walker Double Black! Ive never enjoyed a scotch whiskey video as this one, these people are freaking amazing! Funny, interesting and very personable, Id love these guys as friends! Great video and I had to subscribe. Thanks for a great 14:34 minuets of pure fun ..
Johnny Walker Blue is flat out, the best, most fav whiskey I've ever had. Yes it's true you can drink about the entire bottle as it's so lovely. Highly recommend it!
You should really try other brands, the cost benefit of blue label just isn’t there. Try glennfiddich or Macallan.
@@Guilkdp I"ve had em. I've traveling and lived al over the world. In parts of the Middle East...you can get some way way cheaper than the west/USA. I had some bomb aged Macallan for about 1/3 of the American price...and also about every Glenn there is. Yes some was pretty close and excelelnt for sure...but JW Blue..MMMmm
Blue Label is wayyyy over rated and over priced. Try Green Label, Macallan 12 year Sherry cask, Glen 14 or 15 year.
Not a scotch but a Taiwanese whiskey called Kavalan. Simply amazing. I'm Scotch Irish so I've tried almost all the Irish and Scotch Whiskey
@@ricolaw1033 ohh cool. i"ll check that out!
