Whenever I get a new bottle of bourbon I always wonder how it compares to Wild Turkey. There is something about the flavor profile of Remus that reminds me of WT. Maybe the spice?
Great episode as usual! I've had a few bottles of the newer 101 bottle style, usually great for the price. But the 101 I got a month ago was not good. Not sure what happened but it was a big step down from the previous WT101's I've had.
Talk about a review at just the right time! Had a chance to get the Remus VIII at $80 for Black Friday. I did decide to pass but, of course, put the cash towards other whiskies 😅
I like the price at $80. Monday is another review. This time with the 2024 Gatsby and the Remus VIII. BIG month more me in December. Stay tuned. Cheers!
I never had that older Wild Turkey but been hearing that the new stuff isn't even close in quality. I use WT 101 as a mixer only. This blind shows that some bottles are way over priced.
I have always felt Remus and WT had similar profiles ever since I tried Remus V. Not everyone feels the same, but palates are different from person to person.
I was wondering why this would be a matchup. Looking forward to Monday's video.

You are not the first person to say that the older bottles are better. I wonder if that will be a trend going forward. Cheers!
Thanks!
I've got you down for 2 entries in November. Good luck!
Love this match up. Can't wait for the Repeal Reserve / Gatsby. Thanks!
December is going to be a BIG month for me. Stay tuned. Cheers!
🎉🎉🎉
Thanks
@@whiskeyisajourney you're welcome
Again, your solo assessments are focused and more informative! Thanks.
Glad you like them! When my sister is on she adds a different vibe. I like to change it up, but I understand that some like it some don't. Cheers!

I've seen both the Remus' reserve and the Gatsby at Meijer stores in Bothell Michigan, $120 for the repeal and $250 for the Gatsby.
Northern Michigan
Those prices are on par with Phoenix. Thanks for sharing. Cheers!
WT 101 and Old Forester are great bangs for the buck. Pretty sure we don't have Remus in Ontario, Canada.
Great value, good tasting, and versatile.
im in ireland and picked up a bottle of wild turkey 101 for 30 euros today which is a very good price where i live
WT 101 is a fantastic value bottle. Very versatile and good flavors. Cheers!
For rhe price, WT101 everyday.
It is hard to beat the value and flavor in WT 101 that is for sure.

WT 101 can go head to head with a lot of more expensive bottles for sure! Cheers!
Just goes to show , bourbon mostly the same.
I have always felt Remus and WT had similar profiles ever since I tried Remus V. Not everyone feels the same, but palates are different from person to person.
these 2 bottles are not remotely close in taste profile - MGP v wild turkey. done with this channel.
Thanks for the feedback. Sorry to see you go, but if that's what you need to do. Cheers!
