    I actually like the idea of a unicorn blind. If we decide to really splurge on a bottle, it’s nice to know what we should lean towards to maximize our bar priced bottle purchase 😂

    • @oldmantwofour5561
      @oldmantwofour5561 9 месяцев назад

      Yeah, but they'll probably pick the wheater so just buy the one you can find. That's probably a Maker's product at this point.

    • @paulhendershot111
      @paulhendershot111 9 месяцев назад +2

      I agree. Just because I probably will never have a bottle doesn't mean I don't like to learn about them. And you might have a chance to try one in a bar.

    Shout out to Weller 107, my favorite sipper. It almost brought a tear to my eye it was like seeing one of my kids coming in first place. The editing on this video was fantastic I love the part where Kurt said I'll be back in a minute, it was brilliant😂😂😂

    Kentucky for $79, that is at least findable

  • @Gogreenoo3
    @Gogreenoo3 9 месяцев назад +8

    Love the blinds, great series. Trenton, I think you handicap yourself by always trying to guess the bottles. By doing that you bring in all of your preconceived notions about each bottle, and which one you think should win. I like Kirk’s approach, just judge by the flavors you experience in the moment.

    I won an Antique 107 at a raffle (about 30 bottles of every EH Taylor offering, 5 bottles of every Weller offering, a couple Blantons straight from the barrel, regular Blanton’s, Elmer T Lee) The buy-in was $20 for a gallon of Fireball lol, so I was like what the heck, let’s buy one. I quickly realized there were about 60 people, many of whom had 10-15 tickets per person, never thought I’d win. But alas, I waited an hour to hear my name drawn for a single barrel select of Antique 107, price was $90 plus the $20 buy-in. 😂😂 the feeling of winning on a single ticket and also enjoying this 107 slowly is pretty wonderful to say the least 🙃

    Yes! Finally Bourbon, Whiskey, Armagnac, Cognac season has arrived!
    I'm not much of a drinker and 1 bottle of anything can last 1 year in my home. I prefer Gin and Tonic in the summer. But I've been watching you guys and made my first Bourbon purchase in May and have been waiting for 50°-60° weather to arrive.

  • @AJWoS26

    i think im a little more traditional in my palette when it comes to bourbon.. typically really enjoy the nuttier, full bodied bourbon over the fruity more "complex" flavors.. and i LOVE eh taylor small batch.. quite a bit more than weller 107. eht barrel proof is one of my all time favorite pours. batch 12 is next level awesome.

  • @Futureguitarist15
    @Futureguitarist15 7 месяцев назад

    Glad to see Weller antique regarded so highly by you guys. The restaurant I work for bought a barrel so they're only charging $10 a pour. It's been on my radar since we got the bottles in so I'm going to have to try it on my next shift.
    Also, I'm really glad I found you guys because I feel like mine and Kurt's pallets are extremely similar. It's making it easier for me to transfer from scotch into the world of bourbon.

  • @enochthewitness-2023

    @SLB Drinks - a Unicorn blind would be exciting to watch. I know what you mean about most people cannot get those bottles, but trust me, it is exactly the type of content people would enjoy. It is fun to get to see all the unicorns, especially together in a blind. Its fun to watch other people enjoy and describe them. It is the closest most will ever get to experiencing it ourself.

    I finally got a bottle of weller 107 after years of literally never even seeing on a shelf i just paid secondary and had it shipped ($130). It was the first "hype" bottle that I thought lived up to the hype amazing pour I already ordered a second bottle hope to always have one on hand. It's on the short list of "if I could only have one bottle..." contenders

    Kurt, I found something a bit interesting in taste. Being a Virginia Resident, I normally like to sample VA made bourbons. I recently ran across a bottle of "Reservoir" bourbon, of course, Made in Virginia product. If you see a bottle in your area, Pick it up and give you thoughts on this. It is surely a taste like I have never tasted before. But its certainly not bad.
    And Glad to see the Elijah Craig BP on your blind, Those BP's have been some great tasting pours this year.
