    I've noticed a growing trend of MGP sourced bottles finding their way onto my shelf. And I have said on camera numerous times, I really like MGP whiskey. Thus I wouldn't be surprises to see them attempting to branch out. 🖖😎🥃

    MGP buying Lux Row and then other good former customers like Penelope makes a lot of sense. "Jesus, these guys are making bank just reselling our stuff. We should buy them and just supply the barrels, less overhead."

    The Old Gran Dad Bonded 100 proof is a pretty good whiskey in my book!

    Oh, dude, you missed Mull; it's the most beautiful of the Scottish islands. The distillery is okay, but Tobermory, where it's located, is incredible. Calgary beach resembles a Caribbean beach, and the seafood is really good. Even the takeaway food truck at the port is great.

    I haven't had this one, but the barrel strength (bonded? cast strength? can't remember now) was great!

    The high rye mash bill is great. I think Cowtown Bourbon Club did picks a few years ago that were phenomenal. Could’ve been DFWWC.

    George Remus Bourbon is the most cherry forward Bourbon I've ever had. It tastes like cherry pie in a glass with a touch of cinnamon and oak

    Quiz show? 1st to slap the table answers these questions three. If you answer correctly to all three, more whiskey for thee. If not off with thee.

  • @89sooner
    @89sooner 8 месяцев назад +2

    I think this one is a blend of the regular 21% and 36% rye mash bills. The single barrel sample kits these days have one each of the 21%, 36%, and the 49% rye mash bills.

    • @89sooner
      @89sooner 8 месяцев назад +1

      …and sounds like they really paid up for Penelope. You’ll know it’s getting really real when they buy Smoke Wagon or Barrell/Stellum. Baby steps would be Nashville Barrel Company,

    Hey guys, love the show and thanks for the review. If you haven't tried our new Remus 6yr Highest Rye please do. It is our LISV mashbill (51% corn, 39% rye, 10% malted rye) and its delicious.

    My question is; How many years after MGP is no longer sourcing and the middle men have all run dry, does MGP distilled whiskey become rare and sought after by the sentimental whiskey snobs just because it's from a bygone era?

    MGP just bought the penelope brand that used mgp as the source for 106 mill

  • @umami0247
    @umami0247 8 месяцев назад

    May take is these brands that R/S have bought will now have new age stated bottles coming out in the coming years and they will continue to purchase NBP and grow and become a giant. So instead of sourcing to them they will just buy them. Good time to invest in some of these companies. Just saying.

      First off, I am NO Expert here but my bottle of Bulleit Rye has 'Distilled in Lawrenceburg, IN' as a hint it's MGP ... I'm not sure about other brands/labels based on their arrangement. Cheers 🥃

  • @sandmonjones8004
    @sandmonjones8004 8 месяцев назад

    I was under the impression that excellent bourbon would cost $80 90 dollars a bottle. I just Google GRB whiskey at $40.00 a bottle which I think is a good price for bourbon.

    Luxco and MGP merged, and MGP has been renamed to the Ross & Squibb distillery just FYI

    • @vishnu79
      @vishnu79 5 месяцев назад

      It has not. Ross & Squibb is the new name of the old Seagrams Distillery in Lawrenceburg. Prior to the rename, the plant itself was just referred to internallyas either "Lawrenceburg", or "The Old Seagrams Distillery", which the corporate types figured wasn't exactly good branding. MGP itself still owns Ross and Squibb (the old Seagrams plant), their Atchison plant, Lux Row, the Middletown and Sunman storage facilities, and the smaller distilleries outside DC that used to make Green Hat, although that is in the process of being shut down and the production moved to the Ross & Squibb plant.

    OMG. The story about Remus is sooooooooooo much more involved than Daniel's explanation. If you look into the entire story of how his wife screwed him over, it was a just verdict.
    I'd have agreed with the jury, lol....

      @@jj9363 Yep. And it took a jury of his peers 19 minutes to find him not guilty, and the courtroom erupted in cheers after the verdict was read.
      Look up the story...

    MGP was making bourbon when nobody could sell it. Whiskey is hot now and and they have the product. People like the taste adn accept MGP Bourbon as a quality product. MGP has figured out, you can make a lot more money at retail than wholesale.
