You should do a similar video where you pick the top 5 bottles that you could actually buy throughout the country. No store picks, no allocation, and no regional releases. The top 5 bottles you could step off a plane in any random US city and know you can walk into a random liquor store and buy.
Love this idea! It would be good to compare. Great video guys
Beat me to it. None of these bottles are really attainable.
I’m pretty sure they have already done top 5 under $50 which is pretty much the same thing as what you’re talking about.
@@nickflohr811 They've done something like that but no, limiting it to $50 is not what I'm talking about. There are plenty really avaliable whiskeys over $50 that are very good.
@@dronepocket325 Searched and... no. Thanks for commenting, remember to like and subscribe!
Guess I'm hunting Four Gate batch 19 now. Thanks for blowing up my budget, buds.
I've been favoring this sort of "collection" for a while now. I used to do the shelf full of bottles thing but I decided I had too much stuff that I didn't like (unfortunately it's not "content" when I do it) so I spent a year or two not buying anything and just killing bottles. I now have a cheap bourbon that I keep a decanter full of on my desk and coffee table, then I keep one nicer bourbon, one rye, one Irish, one peaty scotch, one sherried scotch, and one Japanese whiskey on hand at all time. All of the nicer bottles change frequently, I almost never buy the same one twice in a row.
I'm working to get to this point right now myself, and it's hard... I think I peaked around 50+ bottles ranging the full gamut of price points and styles (mainly bourbon then scotch), slowly trying to work down to a dozen or less. The only bottle I've re-stocked this year, is a handle of EW BiB to replace a WT 101 handle that is mainly used for mixed drinks
@@rhendog7 Yeah, I also consider cocktail spirits to be separate. I do technically have another bourbon, rye, and scotch that I use only for mixing. It's a nice way to do the collecting thing without ending up with bottles they just sit around for a long time because you don't really love them.
Great list, and I was so pleasantly surprised by your Islay picks at the end! I love Compass Box as well, my favorite is their Tobias & The Angel and it would have to be in my list of 5 bottles. Cheers!
I agree with Seans Four Gate Batch 19 but I agree more with Dans choices. Joseph Magnus, Blue Run and Compass Box choices are absolute hitters. The first Compass Box I had was the Peat Monster and Dan is right that it’s like an angel from heaven comes down and just envelopes you in a soft warm embrace that heals your soul and makes everything oh so much better.
I’m with you on the Elmer 100: it started my bourbon journey. I have an ETLC in my bunker because I couldn’t find the 100 anywhere, and Elmer at the slightly higher proof than normal is amazing!
Guys I loved this video! There is something about watching people show off their collection/monster bottles that truly get me excited and remind me why I got into bourbon/whiskey in the first place. I felt so giddy haha.
Also, the way Dan talked about Peat Monster Arcania was absolutely poetic. Damn near made a believer out of me. Thinking I might have to run down to party source and pick me up a bottle 😇 cheers junkies!
Loving Sean getting the Bruchladdich head rush.
Wild Turkey Rare Breed, Old Forester 1920, Old Grandad 114, Michters and Chattanooga Whiskey 111.
Hey guys, nice job making this particular video - I actually enjoyed the banter. Regarding the lists, I hate to say it, but the difference maker for me is that I'd choose the Compass Box over the Octomore 6 days out of 7. Keep up the good work
Fun list and great choices! I've got seven of those eight bourbons and ryes on the list and also feel that those are some of the best bottles I have. Cheers guys! 🥃
Thanks for this. I have never had any of those. But if they are your picks, I know they are amazing bottles. I’m on the hunt again.
I was waiting for the peat to come out at some point! Great lists, great video as always.
Absolutely love these types of videos, the Reddit you only need 5 bottles is what brought me to the BJ channel and haven’t left
Dalmore 15, Booker's, Woodinville Triple Barrel, Woodford Rye, Laphroaig 10...In that order for me. Fun lists, guys.
Sean with the win .. great choices, but the Parkers Heritage 8 year Heavy Char takes the victory for him, along with the OF117.
I feel like I have to live vicariously thru you gents cause I won't hunt that hard for those unicorns..... Never seen any of them in the wild in SE NC 😞
I freaking love Four Gate batch 19! Was getting very sad because the bottle is low and randomly walked into a store on vacation and they had batch 19! Bought two more it is fantastic!
Oooooooh...Sean! I need one of those whiskey Wutang shirts. Nice!
Yo me too
...it's for the children
you can find them on www.whiskeyambitions.com
Redbreast 27, GTS 2019, 4R2020SmBLE, Bardstown Discovery Batch 4, Old Forester barrel proof Rye.
That KO batch 01 rye is the best bottle I've ever had. I did not think batch 2 or 3 could hold a candle to it and I've not opened my batch 4.
Great list guys! Loved this concept of having a whiskey collection but having to pick your favorites to survive. Some would be impossible to find again, some are your favorites flavor profiles, and some are sentimental. Cheers 🍻
we went straight off the whiskey we want to drink the most
I’m shocked…I actually have one of the bottles! Got to try the 1910 Extra Old a few times and loved it. Managed to get one in trade for an OWA and EHT Small Batch. I can find those retail from time to time so it was a no brained for me.
oh I'm going looking for the Four Gate Kev Collab IIII NOW. It was a tie for me. Dan and Sean both had 2 I love on their list, and I haven't dabbled in Scotch Whisky so that's a toss up. I'll actually try it now.
Damn...Seans list "nailed it!!"
Great video guys.
fantastic list!
Seem like great lists. Only have had Magnus and a regular Elmer before…but I think I’ll have to go TeamSean on the 5 id like to try more. Also want that whisky shirt
Of my collection in no particular order
- antique 107 (boring)
- ocean voyage 17 (only one worth the money)
- yippee kye yee (spelling)
- desert jewell
- IW Harper 15
Solid! I would love to have any of these bottles!
GTS 2020
Jack Daniels barrel proof rye
Michters toasted barrel bourbon
Maguns cigar blend (Vader batch)
Dewars 32 year double double
surprised shawn didn't go with a brownforman Early Times BiB to take advantage of the magical refill... The WTWT list didn't include refills, which changes everything. With the refill, I'm keeping my GTS, ER17, EHT Marriage, RR13 (so I could finally open them, all bought at retail) and lastly 1792 FP store pick.
we don't own a bottle
i’ve never had any of these, but i know i like old forester, so team sean.
Nice lists! I'll give the edge to Sean because of King of Kentucky. I just had my first taste of it in Kentucky two days ago...Unbelievable!! Unfortunately, I'll never be able to own a bottle (insert frown here).
Team Dan on the list 👍 Never had a KoK so hard to go in on it without knowing if I like it
Im really glad I took Dan's advice and bought the Blue run 14y, even though i payed big bucks in Canada.
How much was it? I am looking to get one but if its too much I won't look too hard
@@betsypwnsyou I ended up having to pay like $350 cad to get it up here. Which is like $265 usd?
The selection here is terrible so it's basically all secondary from groups/people. So for that amount of $ in the US you can probably find better things.
#TeamDan all day but with Sean on the 1910 Extra Age that thing is amazing!
You just picked teams in dodgeball and Dickel is the kid with asthma and glasses.
Pick by pick as presented in the video, who won?
1. Dan's JMCB
2. Sean's KoK (and not just because that's fun to say. I have a bottle from that literal barrel and its a killer)
3. Sean's Parker's Rye (that rye is so good)
4. tie. wow.
5. have only had octomore of those two so I have no idea.
Sean wind shows over he just dropped the mic! Octomoreeeeeeeeeeee!
Good stuff. I hope I can find a regular Elmer some day.
Bro - the like button sounds is ssssiiiiccccckkkkkkk! Thanks Dan!
Great choices from both of you. I just question, why no BTAC or WT? Forever is a long time 😅
I’d say it was a tie for me. Even though I’m and thought at first his list would win for me with the four gate pick. with that Kentucky owl Batch 2 Rye and that compass box Peat monster might’ve just edged a little bit ahead. Awesome video
You need to review Barrel King. Life changing
That's a large bottle count of I suspect 80% great bourbons. I believe the best 5 whiskies I have owned a bottle of are - Middleton Very Rare 2016, Stagg Jr, EHTBP, Heaven's Door cask strength (MGP), and Redbrest 12 year. Cream of Kentucky 13 year would replace Heaven's Door, but I only had that as a pour at a restaurant. My honorable mentions are Yellow Spot, ECBP, JDSBBP, and John's Lane release. I dig Sean's list over Dan's. Sorry Savant
My picks are with Dan. He started with a great one
Don’t worry Dan, you’ll win Matt Madness next year. Cameron had a great run and you’ll come back stronger
Can't say who's is better, never had any of the choices!
Should do a top five list on, the whiskey room is on fire and what bottles do you grab out!?
Nah... bad JuJu...
We need a Compass Box lineup video.
No Mario sound but I’ll try again tomorrow! Also Dan don’t you have a OF birthday bourbon from the year your son was born? I was just curious because of the sentimental value of sharing that one day where that would rank! Cheers guys
Good times
They folded some monsters!
Not a bad list....I can get down with it
whoah this is a real cool heart badge
(btw, how much does that Arcana go for over there?)
Team Sean vote. KoK and octomore are straight hitters! Both solid lists but the ETL 100 for Dan is when I knew Sean won it for me
I want that 1910 extra aged!
What the heck! So far nobody has picked Fireball! And God's sake give Dickel some love too! For no. 3 Wicked Pickle. If Dan was able to make a list for Greeze they'd be on that list!
My 5 would be:
Aberlour A’Bunadh
Redbreast 12 Cask Strength
Riverset Rye Cask Strength store pick
JD Coy Hill (mine’s 141 proof)
Balcones Brimstone
They’re all high proof, which I was concerned about at first, but I figured I can add water if I need to. I wanted one of each of my favorite categories. I’ll miss peat tho. If I could add another it would be Laphroaig 10CS, but I’d drink that less than the others.
see I thought about adding blue spot, but I didn't know what I would vote of the list
How can I know which list is better if I’ve never heard of any of em?🙂
Pretty hyped to be the 1/2 that got the beta
I’m in NC and can never find the 1910. Finally found me a bottle while in Florida and now trying to figure out if I want to open it now or wait til I get another bottle. 🤯🤷♂️
Oooopen
Sean WINS!!!!!
thank you!
I have an extra batch 78 cigar blend for Dan that I’m looking to trade. Cheers from commifornia
I got the mushroom eating sound.
You should do a video where you pretend you’re getting a “divorce” and then do a “draft” of what bottles you would pick to take with you after the separation
Bro you guys got to do the mammoth 12 year 56% abv since you live here in Michigan.
We do not
The odds of anyone seeing these in the wild is still far greater than Dan getting a state capital correct.
So don't complain.
This divorce is the equivalent of Sean getting the kids on weekends, holidays, and summer vacation while Dan gets the kids Mon - Thurs and has to go to all the PTA meetings and do all the homework with the kids.
Ugh, I'm never going to remember these bottles to spot them at any liquor store. I mean, not like I actually expect to get lucky and find one, but damn...there are so many I want to try and not readily available.
Hate to say it but sean had a way better list. Dans only win was the cigar blend.
I want that shirt that Sean is wearing...
Also I don't think he meant "magically refilled". More like "what are you saving from a house fire".
well we're selfish and made our own stipulations because I'm ripping shelves off the wall and carrying them out in a fire
If you stopped receiving/buying bottles, how long do you think it would take you 2 to drink your entire collection?
What number would Sean have picked the finished Green Spot
I think blue spot was my #6 in the draft
Gotta go with Sean's picks.
🔥🔥🔥
Hey guys, I live in Australia and would love you're opinion.
I've found an online seller for 1792 Full Proof for $149 AUD (103.20 USD). Cheap compared to other sites.
I really like Wild Turkey Rare Breed (72.73 USD) but want to try the 1792.
Is it worth forking out the extra dollars or just stick with Rare Breed?
Thanks, love the channel!
Nobody picked the 33 year Midnight Marmalade from SMWS? Thought for sure that was making this video
see I almost did to cover some scotch and a low proof, then picked up blue spot for an Irish, but I panicked
Just because i'll never see a KoK in NewJersey, im with list teamDan
Sean wins on the Octomore!!
Any 5 and no WLW?
Did you have an opportunity to pick up the Octomore and went w Arcana? Sean wins and it’s not even close.
This ^
yea when people can pick it up for $30 it also changes it a lot for me too
When Sean and I get divorced 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Ok
Lagavulen 16 yr
George t Stagg 144 proof bottle
I w harper 15yr
New riff balboa rye
Parker’s heritage promise of hope.
that promise of hope just hits different
Thank god I have 3 Bottles of Blue Run 14. I will make sure it lasts YEARS
If I join do I get access to any barrel picks you do?
Yeah
Both great lists but for me it’s 100% #teamsean
I thought the original premise was more emotional and sentimental, and less about quality or rarity, like with the Elmer bottle. They don't refill and you can rebuild the collection, don't have to 'round out the selection'. Let's say there's a tornado or earthquake (insurance covers the losses), which specific 5 bottles would you be most heartbroken to lose? You guys wouldn't keep one of your barrel picks? A specific gifted bottle? I don't disagree with your lists, legendary unicorn ambrosia is obviously worth keeping, just wasn't the angle I expected, at least the way you talked about it.
I can't tell you whose list is better because I haven't had ANY of those bottles. LoL
I'm curious how neither picked WLW after the reviews y'all gave?
We didn't own a bottle at the time, only had samples to go off of.
So far for me sean is winning I’m at 4!
Hey you two never pick a non-kentucky style rye. No one ever chooses a rye of 75%or higher.
Any reason why????
I think we prefer the sweeter ryes, but we also love a lot of 95/5 ryes too
Such a tough list to try to narrow down. I can't imagine not picking Stagg Jr. Or a Makers cask strength for cocktails. Or an EH Taylor single barrel BiB, as an homage to the colonel. Or.... crap, I need more than 5!
Sean's KoK is the winner those.
Team Sean due to the Octomore!
#teamdan
The drip sounded more like a slurp when I hit the like button
Yo Dan didn't pick a High West Mid Winter?!?
Dan's hair is growing back even more grey than it was before it was shaved off...
1000%
Ok I seriously thought Dan was kidding about the like button…
Scotch … come on guys 🤣
