** What's with the necklaces?
Rex is a whiskey mooch. His necklace is a manifestation of pure glory - forged from the irradiated bones of eagles and wolves. Also a tube sock.
See the origin story here: goo.gl/JMc2Hr
Daniel is a whiskey sommelier. His necklace is a token of his sommelier level, and he trains whiskey sommeliers at The Whisk(e)y Marketing School in Austin Texas.
**A Whisk(e)y school?
Yup. Here are a few things we believe.
** You don’t have to be a snob to appreciate and love great whiskey.
Whisky and Whiskey (it depends on where it’s from) have been an important part of cultures around the world from time immemorial. Whiskey is a part of the very fabric of Western society, and in most places, is as common and accessible as beer.
Like Jazz and wine, snobs have predictably hijacked whiskey appreciation, spoiling our natural, common connection with it and creating a false dichotomy of “good whiskey” and “bad whiskey.”
It’s time to break through the emotional bias with facts and science. That’s what this school is about.
** The only valid definition of “good” whiskey is “whiskey you like to drink.”
Learning how to share your love of whiskey in a way that connects people to the history and the story has more to do with public speaking and storytelling than it does with facts and tests.
The best way to learn about whiskey and share that love is to drink whiskey and talk about it with friends. Study the history, find the stories, and discover the culture and the methods that have been developed over hundreds of years. That’s what you’ll do when you attend The Whisk(e)y Marketing School.
** You don’t need a marketing degree to learn how to share your love of whiskey with the world.
There's an old saying, "In business, it's not what you know... It's who you know."
Regardless the industry you're in, most people are clumsy and ineffective when it comes to "networking" because they ignore a very important rule - Relationship First, Business Second.
There's a tremendous amount of curiosity about Whisk(e)y today. It's a great excuse for you to gather a group of people who want to have fun and learn something new. The Whisk(e)y School teaches you how to tap into that curiosity, and share your love of whisk(e)y in an unpretentious way. You're demonstrating knowledge, expertise, and an engaging personality - things valued by every gatekeeper, in every industry.
Or would you rather hand out business cards and cross your fingers?

I'm a Pewdiepie fan and a whisky fan. I didn't know of your channel but by some kind of RUclips algorithm your video on beginners whiskies was suggest to me. I saw this one on the sidebar, I've got to say it was really interesting to see your opinion in a non condescending way and just overall enthusiasm about whisky! Your channel is very nice/10.
Thank you! We strive to achieve the very nice standard.
O hope he does a bourbon whiskey vid. (Provided all of it comes from it Kentucky, the place where nearly all of it comes from anyway lol)
He just did a Scotch one and plan on doing a Irish whisky one so we can only hope. Hopefully @Whiskey Vault can make a review of his future videos too, that be nice.
My lead in to this channel was Modern Rogue's video with them. It was actually a really good Whiskey intro, too.
ruclips.net/video/M-rjtG_CHzU/видео.html
Same here. I just tried some stillhouse black bourbon. Got interested in whisky.
Watched pewds review, then found this channel. And now the merger between the two.
It's *VARRY NEYYES*
Very nice / 10
hahahahahaha. love it
WTF man. haha
oooh very nice
Veeeery nais
Dries Mockers now that's a signature right there! XD
I left PewDiePie a link to one of the WhiskyVault videos yesterday, fingers crossed that he gets together with you two!!
Rock and roll!
i saw your comment and here i am
When children have the means to purchase whiskey will your fallacious argument bear weight. In parting allow me to retort in song form.

Cheers, mate
Was not expecting the cork sound censor... vvvveri naeis
10/10 would listen to again
Christian channel!
I wonder if he'd come visit if you guys invited him. That'd be pretty cool.
Yes. Yes it would
Of course he will come, look at all those very nice whisky
Whiskey Vault just get your fans to send links to pewdiepie of this vid👌🏻
"pretty cool"? i think you meant to say "veny nice". Oh and pewds did saw this video!
very nice
actually so glad i found you guys through this video, both of you bounce off each other so well, love it!
Ha! Gay!!!
Grizzlyman MeinTeil Says the dude with a can of dip as his profile picture, fucking loser.
XeNick says the guy with meh dikkk ehn yer moufff!
Grizzlyman MeinTeil lol
When I watched the video I was impressed by him being so down to earth with it all. He didn't shit talk other types of whiskeys, he talked about the cheap whiskeys being nice alongside the more expensive ones. I was expecting it all to be a big joke to him to be honest.
We both really loved that video. Definitely our kind of anti-snob people.
0:11 👏 👏 WHISKEY REVIEW
I feel like I am about to enter confession here but . . . .
I have never tried a Japanese whisky. I have always thought I should. Now I feel like I have been missing out!
Awesome thanks man! Will keep an eye out for it. Actually I shal google it right now~!
Still It My son, you must do 10 Hail Marys & ... the "Gilligan's Island" theme
hmmmm at the same time or. . . . .
I had only tried mainstream whiskys and not really enjoyed it, but when I came to Japan and got Yamazaki (12 year) served I finished eight glasses before the night was done haha :D Very mild alcohol taste with a strong and slightly sweet vanilla taste that I adored.
Norwegian Reaper haha wow!
You guys need to conspire with PewDiePie. You should have him review your whiskeys when they hit the market. Instant demand. Great to see how you guys handled this. You didn't bash him like so many others would have. You just corrected a few small errors in a friend way. Very Nice.
This video gets 8 nices, and 10 for inspired opportunism
I think deserve at least 10.25 for inspired opportunism. But we'll settle for a perfect ten. Except Rex. He's maybe a 7 or 8.
Whiskey Vault=straight Scotch
Rex=Irish Whiskey over ice
DracoRogue1218 irish whiskey over ice is VERY NAICE 😋
Got here by pewds mention on his stream... He Watched The Video!
Not on stream but he said he watched it.

This is now one of my favorite channels. I watched this video and I had know idea you guys existed. I fucking love whiskey. I have never bought anything fancy, but I love everything from Texas.
I thought these guys were gonna shit-talk him. But this is some good/fun info. I am Corrected.
You guys sure have a really amazing knowledege about whisky . The way you run your channel is really amazing too. I hope you will achieve more in the future
thanks!

Thanks for the video, I loved the Pewdiepie whisky video and glad that you done this one and I was able to find it. You now have a new subscriber for life!
Glad to have you!
Looking forward to it! Oh, and in other news, i just found out that a whiskey bar has opened near me with +340 different bottles. Very nice!
Andreas Reitzel, man... Somehow you've managed to land in the nexus of epic cool shit 😄👍
I don't know how it ended up like that, but here I am :D But I will say, mooching whisky on the scale that you manage, that ain't bad either!
my favorite is nikka from the barrel. it's amazing for such a low price.
You guys are such good fun! I was blessed to live in Japan for almost ten years where I put together quite a collection before the Japanese whisky boom....I absolutely looooove Japanese whisky. Thanks so much for doing this, very much enjoyed watching!
"If you fight, may you fight for a friend
If you steal, may you steal a lovers heart
If you drink, may you drink with us". Perfect. Stealing it for a toast.
awesome! if you want to take it up a notch, you can start with. "if you cheat, may you cheat death." one of our regular commenters, Jason Fisk, turned us on to that toast.
Glad I found you guys, your channel is very nice. I'm not a Wiskey drinker but beer brewing fan (here in Quebec the crafting brewery are amazing) and it's a nice passion to share with internet friends !
Thanks for all the knowledge you helped me get my wife in to whiskey she really loves it now and her favorite is rye some Highland scotch and Bourbons. Thanks for helping me with my drinking problem!
omg how did I not found this channel.......I am a strong whiskey drinker. been drinking it for 8 years now. started with a blend chivas regal. and went to lagavulin and glendronach and all that sorts of whiskey. but I still have a quite a hard time. tasting and separating certain flavors. still I love your channel. very good info on everything and it makes me love whiskey even more
In recent years I've started to get a taste for whiskey (especially bourbon). Up until now I've mostly stuck to the big brands (Jim Beam, Jack Daniels, Four Roses, Canadian Club) and always the most basic versions. After seeing PewDiePie's vid, and about 40 of yours today alone, I've just ordered close to 300 dollars worth of whiskey (and 4 glencairn glasses):
- Highland Park 12
- Johnnie Walker Double Black
- Four Roses Small Batch
- Buffalo Trace
- Jameson Caskmates
and the kicker:
- Hibiki Harmony
already in my cabinet:
- Jim Beam White Label
- Canadian Club
- Forrester 86 proof
Hope you like my list, tried to get something of everything in there.
Michael Deckers, wow! When you go in, you go ALL IN. 👍 Thats a damn good list. Come back and tell us which were your favorites!
Michael Deckers #BallsDeep4Whiskey
Need to get yourself a bottle of Glen Deveron and Black Grouse!
Michael Deckers I
So which was your favorite?
As someone new to whiskey...have been drinking since January 2017, I fail to get the tasting notes that you guys talk about. Though the only one I could try that you talked about was Jack Daniels because here in India this stuff is nearly double the price. But you guys do make me appreciate and love whiskey more and more. Thanks a million. Also pewds is love and I hope he mentions you guys.
Satvik Shah, thank you for watching! The more times you drink whiskey, the more you acclimate to the alcohol burn, and begin to taste the flavors underneath. Just takes some time. 👍
If you think if you think your prices are bad let me make you feel better about your prices. In a US online liquor store a 750ml standard Jack Daniels costs $16.99. Here in my nation from the government liquor monopoly a 700ml bottle of the same is $54.33.
These two guys are legends.
Super helpful. I only wish you had wide shots of the bottles when you were tasting them. I don't speak Japanese. Would've been great to compare the two videos.
The guy on the left is great I love the backstory of things like this. Guy on the right, you serve your purpose.
Yea he was being totally rude
you do actually do like Ragnar and Rollo
wtf isthis, I try not to betray my friends and family as much as Rollo. All the battle prowess? Yah, totally me... 😅
I kinda wish Rex didn't interrupt Daniel on the whisky history stories. Would have loved to hear more.
Never thought I'd subscribe to a whiskey dudes channel but here I am.
It surprises us too :-)
Whiskey Vault I've never tried whiskey but you guys made me want to try it.
I loved the back and forward you guys have, very refreshing to see!
the way you guys talk about whisky/whiskey is getting ito my head and now I want one haha
Satan Gunner, gah! Now I want one too. 'Tis a vicious circle indeed. 😜
Great to see you guys on a saturday afternoon!! Cheers ma frienddds
Yikes, the Yamazaki 12 today is hard to find and my only source is $195. I'm not paying $200 for "nice."
In Poland Yamazaki 18 costs almost 650$ :(
Ouch
in japan Yamazaki 18 470$
Adrian Grzemski O
800$ in mine
Bought for me as a gift. But one of the best alcohols ive ever had
I went out this week and got Toki, Yamazaki 12 and TAKETSURU pure malt. I had to search far and wide just to find them. Hibiki Harmony is no where to be found. I'm shopped in north and central NJ. You're closing comments about how Felix's video is affecting the Japanese whiskey market is absolutely true and anyone watching should go out and stock up while you can. Since watching Felix's video I'm starting down the path. Since watching your video in response, you will be my guide.
u guys just review whiskey all day? nicce
From South-Africa, a big Hallo, a friend of mine got me onto Whisk(e)y and I have never looked back. Great channel and keep up the good work
330 not very nices? Who could think this is not very nice?
That closing motto is very nice.
I dont even like whisk(e)y but I cant stop watching your videos.
Exactly how we've planned it.
Keith Harp, you're in good company. A lot of our viewers don't whisk(e)y, but we're glad you're here nonetheless!
Rex, can you and the Flava Flav hobbit make a video for whisk(e)ys ... to _cook with_ like Bourbon for Shrimp & Grits?
Don't know these guys nor anything about whiskey but I love these guys
That Nikka Coffey Malt is the nectar of the gods
The 18 year Yamazaki is 800 here in Australia
Love this video guys. I haven't tried a whole lot of Japanese whisky and been looking for more to buy. I have a bottle of Harmony (which I love!) as well as Nikka Coffey Grain, Nikka Tsakasuru Pure Malt, and Kikori but that's all. I've seen Yamazaki at a few small liquor stores around town but it's always really expensive so I've never bought a bottle. I see Hakushu all the time so I'll def have to pick that up and also try to find the Yoichi bc that sounded like something I'd really like! I recently saw the Togouchi in a local supermarket recently and was going to ask you about it bc I had no idea what it was. It was a NAS blend for $45 so prob nothing close to what that 18yo he tried is like. Might try it just for kicks.
It's a lovely journey to be sure
Great content guys! Love me some Japanese Whisky, and the history behind it. Spent a lot of time in the Philippines and Tokyo, and got to try them at a deeply discounted price. For me: Yamazaki 18 (still my top behind Lagavulin) > Nikka Yoichi (love most things I've tried from them [From the Barrel, The Nikka) > Hakushu 12 > Hibiki 17 > Yamazaki 12 > Hibiki 12. Haven't tried the other two Nikkas yet. Thanks again - cheers!
Rex: I see myself being slathered in butter and naughty things happening to me
Daniel (immediately after): That's so pretty!
😬😬😬
as intended... 😂😂😂
Nathanael Wiseman are they gay?
I'm so glad you guys covered Japanese whiskeys. We have the Santori here in our tiny rural PA liquor store. On a whim I tried it with a friend of mine, as we had never even heard of Japanese whiskey, and were blown away. It almost tasted like its own complete type of unique whiskey. Since then, I'll pick up a bottle every couple of months.
Another real unique whiskey I've found (and found not many discussing) is a French whiskey named Bastille. Very floral. Very smooth. With some smoke notes but more so as a part of the cast instead of the lead role. Highly recommended trying it if you can get it in your area
I don't personally like Japanese style whisky to be fair. I had a Nikka Single Malt with my dad that just had this very distinct spirit taste that is very reminicent of rubbing alcohol. This overpowered every taste that was in the whisky to begin with. I am more of a fan of a smooth, round and slightly creamy textured Scottish whisky.
Yeah, it's not for everyone. But Suntory is totally different.
Went back to the same bottle, to correct myself it was actually an imported Nikka Blended whisky but put it in a tulip glass instead of a normal half pint liquor glass and the actual taste of the whisky is so much better. Next time I buy a whisky I might consider the Nikka or the Suntory. Thanks for the tulip glass tip guys!
@@WhiskeyVault whats good japanese whiskey you can get for reasonable price. never tried japanese whiskey before ever
TBH I wanna hang out with these guys. Such a chill vibe
Subscribed. Awesome content.
J.P. Roulet, thanks. Glad you're here 😀
I fell in love with Yamazaki 12 when I tried some from my granny’s stock.
Nikka coffey grain was my gate way whisky, but now I find it a bit simple
stephend50, what do you like these days?
Legit my new favorite Whiskey Channel, great job
Glad to have you!
Do you guys like the Roger Moor scene from Lost in translation? Santori speaking.
It's perfect.
hehe i didn't saw the Pewdiepai video before watching yours, now I see that He likes Lost in translation to :D. Long story short, for me you are the guys to introduce me to PewDiePai content.
You have Hakushu 12YO. Pew had Hakushu Distiller's Reserve. They are very different i think.
loved that your video didn't end up being a buzzfeed style clickbait video.
on a side note, if at all... try checking out Pure Scot, i found that to be a very friendly whisky.
oh and their youtube video of the product is... interesting lol
ruclips.net/video/f8HuaL0S-kQ/видео.html
hahahahah. I love that video. I love how fast it is, how well cut, etc. Thanks for watching!
Collecting whisky is something I started slowly before watching this channel…now a new bottle a week is not unusual. Using the Nick Offerman method to drink whisky has insured my collection is still growing and I am only down a couple bottles since the beginning. Sharing a dram with friends has become a new thing but Rex has made me realize sharing just adds to the enjoyment. Thanks for all the episodes and keep them coming!
Sei Gesund!
At first, at 7:07 I swore Rex said, "Am I imagining the slightest bit of pizza?"
Jacob Sweat, haha. No, it was "peat smoke". I whiskey with notes of pizza would definitely be interesting though. 😜
Haha! After a rewind you definitely said "peat smoke." Maybe one of these videos you could troll Daniel about how you are totally getting notes pepperoni pizza.
I don't even drink alcohol but this video and the knowledge is very nice
On a Saturday!!! I LOVE IT
I got the Hibiki Harmony, very very good. Best whisky I've had.
Whenever I drink whiskey for now on, I'm just going to be saying "Its very nice." Thanks, Mr. Pie.
I love the Nikka Coffey Malt just because that whisky is so different. Slainte
great video love being educated on whiskey!!!
I was actually confused at first because I didnt realize Nikka had two different whiskys made with the coffey still. I loooove the coffey grain whisky.
Whisk(e)y - bringing people together since the first batch was distilled.
I already have 2 hobbies, my wallet can only take so much!!!
Would like to see you gentlemen do a review on michters small batch bourbon.
I lived in Japan for 5 years. Yes, most of the liquors there were.. very nice.
These two are surprisingly good youtubers
Cool video! what was the name of those tulip glasses??
dw just found it, and bought two!
nicely done!
whats whiskey if you can't share with friends?
Even i am not a fan of whisky but i still found it is really intereting to watch your video . Really well done guys
Thanks for watching!
A Saturday video?! Thank you!
Cory Vanderpoel, thanks for watching! 😀
Fun fact! The Glencairn glass was created and produced in my town. They also make pretty much every other whisky glass you'll see come across.
Shit, already past 11k...
I'm pretty sure PewDiePie poured all of those whiskies into the same glass... Don't just send him 1 Glencairn, send him a box.
I wouldn't worry about his fan base buying up all the Japanese whisky, 'cause I'm not sure 90% of them are legally able to drink it.
We can only hope.
Can you add the list of the Whiskeys you try? this is a big help for us trying to follow along.
I am a Pewdiepie sub and I purchased my first bottle of Whisky from his recommendation. Nikka from the barrel. I found this video from researching Japanese whisky. I have a question : once a bottle has been opened must it be finished by any certain amount of time or will it be ok if left for days/weeks/months etc
Great choice! You have a few years if you keep it sealed and out of direct sunlight. Once the bottle is down to 1/2 or 1/4 you may want to transfer it to a smaller container. If you plan on finishing the whole thing inside of 6 months, you're good to go.
Whiskey Vault Thanks guys
Whiskey Vault I had been meaning to ask that. Great to know.
@@WhiskeyVault i have never tried japanese whiskey ever which would you recommend. should i get the nikka from the barrel it doesnt seem to ship to the USA
A blended whisky can be a malt whisky, if I'm not mistaken. It just means there's no grain whisky mixed with the single malt whiskies that make up the blend.
Yes! Although a blended malt will usually say "blended malt". If it says only "blended scotch" it has grain whisky as well.
Right!
Honestly I thumbed you down thinking you were just trashing Pewdie Pie,but after watching the full video you guys were fair realizing Whiskey 🥃 tasting is a complex thing to comment on. Thumbs up 👍and a subscribe 🇺🇸
I just watched the PewDiePie video...WOW! I guess he has an audience, but for anyone serious wanting truthful information and unbiased opinions on whiskey, your channel is one of the BEST!
And wow this is pretty polite and well made video. quite amazed it didnt end up as shit talking pewdiepie.
good video friends, and it was quite very nice
These fantastic men discuss Whisky/Whiskey the same way, my friends and I discuss Comics and Comic Book Culture. And I appreciate that love and passion they have for Whiskey, and being a younger collector and have a passion for good whiskeys, they excite me for the future, when I have more money for these beautiful liquors
what do you guys think about the bullet rye behind you ?
it's tasty. I dig it.
NAZAHA it’s my favorite rye! Better than Templeton
Hey! Guys, what would be better for whiskey storing when a moderate and consistent climate isn't viable? Is a fridge better than letting it get over 95°?
Yes. Absolutely.
Sköl from Russia guys!
I absolutely love the vibe and attitude of this channel. (could have something to do with the slightly heavy alcohol consumption)
I really want to try these whiskeys no one around my area sells them are there any websites where I could buy them
Try out Master of Malt
Whiskey Vault, Link please?

Started back into whisk(e)y on Suntory products, specifically the Toki. My second purchase was the Nikka "From the barrel". I have yet to try the Hibiki Harmony, but I do have plans to get some. I can't seem to find the Hakushu and Yamazaki bottlings, and that's annoying.
emmm Veri Nais.. Veri Nais......

He's only acting like a mooch? Nooooooooooo
I'm a whiskey beginner and broke, but Suntory Red is pretty nice if you have it on the rocks and let the ice melt juuust a little. It's also dirt cheap, though. A decent sized bottle can still be under ¥1000
