I worked as an aginging warehouse technician out at buffalo trace for 3 years. Pappy Van Winkle special reserve is actually hand selected W.L. Weller barrels from the Pappy family. With that in mind, save your money on Pappy. It's just weller with a high price tag and longer aging.
Because there are without a doubt better Whiskeys/Whiskys out there. The best whisky I have ever had was a 26 year aged Glen Fiddich, and I didn't even pay for it. That bottle runs north of $500 these days. Jeffersons reserve is around $55 dollars a bottle. That bourbon is hands down better than any of the bourbon he tried here. To sit there and say there aren't better bottles of Whiskey/Whisky out there is just plain false.
I remember my 1st time tasting Old Forester. I tasted it blind next to an $80 Wild Turkey product. The Old Forester 100 is always in my cabinet. It's great to sip, and makes a mean old fashioned.
Old Forester 100 and Wild Turkey 101 are hands down, the best bang for your buck if you're looking for a quality bourbon under $25. OF 1910 & 1920 are truly phenomenal, but they'll also run $60 a bottle.
@@samn5362 Obviously, which is why I said, "the best bang for your buck if you're looking for a quality bourbon under $25." It's not about comparing 101 to Rare Breed.
Knob Creek 9 and 12 years, Four Roses Single Barrel, Wild Turkey Rare Breed, OF 1920 & 1910, WR Double Oaked, Rittenhouse Rye - my go to’s Old Grand Dad 114 - barrel proof bourbon at a great price and it’s a high rye mash bill. Right around $40 - absolute banger
If you can find the Elijah Craig Rye it's delicious! There seems to be a shortage of it in Michigan currently. I went to 3 stores tonight looking for it and couldn't find even a single bottle! I still have a half a bottle so it's not panic time yet. After tomorrow with the in-laws will be panic time lol.
Try the 1792 whiskey, it’s ONE OF MY FAVS… you did pick 3 of my favs tho!! Buffalo trace, old forester, and Elijah Craig.. but definitely try 1792. It is amazing.!! I’m glad we agree on taste. I’m a huge bourbon fan.
For under $30 the new Jack Daniel’s bonded rye is phenomenal! Ryes are generally 2 categories. Straight or finished. Finished ryes are fun to try because there’s so many of them. For a finished rye I’d highly recommend Barrel Seagrass. It’s not cheap but it’s worth it.
@@evanwigerYou would be surprised. Old No7 sucks, but their Single Barrel, Barrel Strength in both the bourbon and the rye are great. I’ve been hearing good things about their bonded line as well. Plus, you would be surprised how many brands of whiskey are made from JD barrels.
The Old forester is my favorite out of this line up. Their 1910 and 1920 are phenomenal. Johnny Drum to me has some herbal notes that throws some people off. Surprised you liked it.
I think the Old Forrester is the an excellent value. It can be pleasant and tasty even neat while it’s price makes it a good choice for cocktails where you want quality but are creating something else.
I bought a bottle of Benchmark Bonded last week. It was ~$19 in North GA. It is a pretty darned good bourbon. I still prefer Evan Williams bottled in Bond, but the BM was a nice change. My go to splurge Bourbon is Larceny, most of the time it is under $30.
Can't wait for your future Rye video! I've heard nothing but great things from the Sagamore Distillery. You should also try some from the American Malt Whisky category and Texas Whisky as well.
I like Old Forster so much , one time i got the bottle as present, shame that is not available in Europe, is so hard to get here , but i would buy it everytime over Johnnie ,jack or Jameson
Couple things, definitely do a rye edition and also do a cask strength edition. You seemed to like higher proof so Cask Strength seems up your alley. For ryes, sagamore double oak is amazing, Rittenhouse rye, rare breed rye, Sazerac rye, all good options Also, if you want to smell less alcohol, when you go to smell it, open your mouth slightly, it should be less harsh.
One surprisingly good rye, is Crown Royal North Harvest Rye. I tasted exactly what they mentioned, and it has a sweet, fruity, sorta floral smell it. Almost like it's trying to be the "apple pie" of rye whiskey, with apple being the lower taste. It ain't that bad, at all.
I am more of a Woodford Reserve Evan Williams myself, but love all bourbons. If you want some rye in it, Woodford Reserve has some. I want to say 30%. Not under $40 though I don't believe, more in the $45 range. The Double Oak is the bomb, but definitely not under 40, more in the $55-$60 range, but worth every penny. Of course any bourbon is not going to be all rye, or mostly rye, as in order for it to be called bourbon it has to be at least 50.1% corn. Pretty sure Woodford is 55% corn, 30% Rye, 15% barley. Been awhile since I have been there. They do make a Rye Whiskey however.
Basil Hayden's Dark Rye, is a pretty decent one, so is Knob Creek small batch Rye. I would pick 4-5 Ryes you might like, I would do $60 and under, and do a blind taste test of them head to head so that way, there will be no outside influence at all on which one you ultimately like the best.
@@frogmanpipes9561 both of your “daddies” will definitely kick you out of the basement if you get on the computer again without permission. And don’t worry about drinking and shopping. Puberty is much closer for you to worry about!
Evan Williams is the best for the buck. Here lately been drinking 99 peanut butter whiskey .Tastes great but very harsh. How about reviewing little bottle booze?
Personally I am a fan of the Benchmark Full Proof. Here local its about $25 a bottle and comes in at 125 proof. I had low expectations from it and was pleasantly surprised.
@@Ratedred i recommended three ships ,5 year old , bourbon cask,10 year old ,Bains cape mountain whiskey, and I like you to try three ships mash tun ,it's a sweet whiskey, all really good I think they are available in America
Hey Boss you want the best Rye try "Jack Daniel's Twice Barreled Rye" or their" Single Barrel Rye" both good. Also "Michters Single Barrel Rye" is a top contender from and more affordable then the other 2.
Bought a Weller's 12, the other day for $43.95(hard to find, lucked out), but my go to sipper and everything else is Old Forester 100 proof, and old grand dad 114 will beat most in the $50.00 market.
Rich & Rare Reserve has been my go-to the past decade. I should own stock in the company. If someone were to give me a bottle of Crown Royal, I would be quick to trade it for R&R Reserve. I'm not drinking it right now. But that's only because i finished the bottle i had late last night.
In my opinion if you can find Weller in general then congrats because in PA you can't find it for sh because all the bourbon snobbs around and everybody goes crazy for it
You lookin' for rye bourbon? Get yourself some Bulleit Bourbon. Also get some Field of Dreams bourbon, just because Field of Dreams(the movie) corn field corn was used.
Ol Forester 86 is the best bang for the buck bourbon hands down! I've done the research and have the documents! Cheaper than the 100 in the video and better in my opinion.
![Blox Fruits Dragon Rework Update [Full Stream]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/EqDAp8udhm0/mqdefault.jpg)
There are plenty of good Rye's under 40 bucks. I don't even know where to begin. More Bourbon Boss videos please.
I see the Boss, i click the video
Man, we need a Alabama Boss and Brewzle collab. 2 Alabama boys, and brewzle’s entire channel is bourbon.
Make it happen!! The world needs it!!!
Been seeing a lot of comments like this...
@@Ratedred I think it’s a sign. TJ has both a stupid extensive and stupid expensive bourbon collection. My man will treat ya right!

Aginging?
@MrScottsearles Aging warehouse technician is the warehouse role aside from Regauge(bourbon extraction in filtering troughs.)
Four Roses single barrel is really good. Also I do like the Buffalo Trace as well.
I really like Four Roses small batch
Both are my go to
I love four roses
That’s the one that Paulie likes in all the Rocky movies. I have yet to try it.
Yeah, that Single Barrel is unbelievable for the price.
I never understood why people need to drink expensive whiskey when cheaper stuff like this can be just as good or better😊
Cuz when they have money they spend it on the most expensive thing possible, same when broke people get a extremely big check, yk.
@@leandrepicklesimer2378 yeah that's true
It's there ego

Lagulvin 18 year. Pair it with a nice cigar.
Old Grandad 114! Best bottom
shelf and it packs the proof.
Yup. The only other bargain bourbon I like nearly as much is Jim Beam Devil's Cut, but that's only 90 proof.
Ive always stood by Wild Turkey 101. But I've got a bottle of that 114 too, it'll get you where you need to go.
I remember my 1st time tasting Old Forester. I tasted it blind next to an $80 Wild Turkey product. The Old Forester 100 is always in my cabinet. It's great to sip, and makes a mean old fashioned.

Old Forester 100 and Wild Turkey 101 are hands down, the best bang for your buck if you're looking for a quality bourbon under $25.
OF 1910 & 1920 are truly phenomenal, but they'll also run $60 a bottle.
Wild turkey rare breed 116 proof blows 101 out of the water. I have found it around $50-$60 a bottle. It is the best bottle out there
@@samn5362 Obviously, which is why I said, "the best bang for your buck if you're looking for a quality bourbon under $25."
It's not about comparing 101 to Rare Breed.
I like your no nonsense and unpretentious approached to tasting, the way I would do it.
😊
watching cuz's buz go up while tasting bourbon is worth watching whole video
Old Forester 1920 is a delight.
I have that, and Heaven Hills BiB sitting right in front of me as we speak! Both are great bourbons for the price.
Go to for sipping or for an old fashioned. Good stuff!
1920 and 1910 worth every penny!
But not under 40 dollars 😢
Tasty but 2+ times the cost of the 86 proof.
Jack Daniels, Nashville Barrel Company, and Sagamore Spirits are making my favorite Ryes. Loved the video!
Yes sir!!! More of this!!
Knob Creek 9 and 12 years, Four Roses Single Barrel, Wild Turkey Rare Breed, OF 1920 & 1910, WR Double Oaked, Rittenhouse Rye - my go to’s
Old Grand Dad 114 - barrel proof bourbon at a great price and it’s a high rye mash bill. Right around $40 - absolute banger
DO ANOTHER ONE WITH THIS LIST

I still have a half a bottle so it's not panic time yet. After tomorrow with the in-laws will be panic time lol.
That's my old, reliable rye. Seems always available in California for like $23. Damn state needs to ship u some!
A review of Bottled-in-Bond bourbons/whiskeys from different price points. That would be cool. Great work!
Elijah Craig was my late brother-in-law‘s favorite. Old Forster, I saw an article “the most underrated alcohols”, and it was one of them. I like it.
In the rye category, checkout Sagamore Double Oaked Rye. It’s north of $40, but it’s darn tasty.
Try the 1792 whiskey, it’s ONE OF MY FAVS… you did pick 3 of my favs tho!! Buffalo trace, old forester, and Elijah Craig.. but definitely try 1792. It is amazing.!! I’m glad we agree on taste. I’m a huge bourbon fan.
I tried to get into ryes and I just didn’t like them…. Until I tried Old Forester’s Rye, that stuff is delicious!!
Where is Very Old Barton?! You have to try that. Most underrated bourbon!
I made fudge with the OF 86 proof. Tasty!! Now I might try with the 100 proof, which is what I am drinking right now.
Number one suggestion for your request for tips, ask Ashla! ✌️

Angels Envy has a great rye whiskey. Perfect for the cold months
When I was broke I use to drink Old Crow lol, it use to be about 7 bucks a fifth and it tasted similar to Jim Beam.
I bought a bottle of Benchmark Bonded last week. It was ~$19 in North GA. It is a pretty darned good bourbon. I still prefer Evan Williams bottled in Bond, but the BM was a nice change. My go to splurge Bourbon is Larceny, most of the time it is under $30.

Consider yourself fortunate my friend. Here in Michigan, anything Weller has a 3-digit price tag if you can even find it.
Old Forester Rye is definitely your best bang for your buck. About $22 a bottle and one of the best out there. Period.
Buffalo Trace was a favorite of mine, but I also really enjoyed Elijah Craig too. 👍
As for a good rye, try Knob Creek.
Ur doing us proud BOSS
I am more of a Woodford Reserve Evan Williams myself, but love all bourbons.
If you want some rye in it, Woodford Reserve has some. I want to say 30%. Not under $40 though I don't believe, more in the $45 range. The Double Oak is the bomb, but definitely not under 40, more in the $55-$60 range, but worth every penny.

They do make a Rye Whiskey however.
Definitely want to see more bourbon tastings. Give James Pepper or Henry McKenna if you want a good rye bourbon
Old Forrester makes a really fun rye for like ~$30 actually, it’s my go to when I give up tryna buy whiskey

No matter what I try I keep going back to the Wild Turkey 101. For me, it’s number 1 followed by Jim Beam, Jack Daniels, and Evan Williams.
Jim beam black
So you definitely shop at Walmart and get your liquor at Kroger

Where does Kroger sell liquor??@@frogmanpipes9561
Michter's cask strength RYE is the best on the market, runs 150 a bottle, hard to get but worth every penny
Good choices! Try Old Tub, 4yr and 100 proof for only $25 in Ohio. Rebel 100 only $20 and Jim Beam Black for $20. Have fun!
Evan Williams is the best for the buck. Here lately been drinking 99 peanut butter whiskey .Tastes great but very harsh. How about reviewing little bottle booze?
Double bullet is my favorite don't know how much it cost a bottle was given to me from a friend it was soo good
I got Elijah Craig at a family dirty Santa a couple years ago and it's really good imo. Especially for the price.
I like these bourbon and whiskey videos.
Have you ever tried Japanese whiskey? If not you definitely should give a few a try.
More videos Boss!!! My suggestions are as follows;
Eagle Rare
Early Times Bottle in Bond (blue label)
Angels Envy Rye
E.H. Taylor
Willett Rye
Not a bad list.
Personally I am a fan of the Benchmark Full Proof. Here local its about $25 a bottle and comes in at 125 proof. I had low expectations from it and was pleasantly surprised.
Buffalo Trace is real good cheap burbon as well as Elijah Craig I like both for sippin dirty. I have a bottle of Elijah on the fridge right now.
Very partial to Coopers Craft 100 or Knob Creek 120 around that price point, may be a couple bucks over or under depending
Need more videos like this asap Boss 🤘 do a 20 dollar one. Ezra Brooks, Evan Williams, Heaven Hill, Old Crow, call it Rot Gut Reviews.
I definitely want to see some review s on the south African whiskeys that are available
Share some recommendations!
@@Ratedred i recommended three ships ,5 year old , bourbon cask,10 year old ,Bains cape mountain whiskey, and I like you to try three ships mash tun ,it's a sweet whiskey, all really good I think they are available in America
Look like you got it down! Strait up to the point. Rare breed rye and Emerald Giant from Redwood empire are my current go to ryes. Cheers!
I love where you guys are headed
Glad you're along for the ride!
Hey Boss you want the best Rye try "Jack Daniel's Twice Barreled Rye" or their" Single Barrel Rye" both good. Also "Michters Single Barrel Rye" is a top contender from and more affordable then the other 2.
Evan Williams bottle and bond is my go to 100 proof. 1.75L $37.99
Bought a Weller's 12, the other day for $43.95(hard to find, lucked out), but my go to sipper and everything else is Old Forester 100 proof, and old grand dad 114 will beat most in the $50.00 market.
I’m getting the Weller SR for $22.99 at my ABC. It’s my daily sipper along with RR10.
You covered my favorite dailies. Nothing bad here.
🙌🏼

A great rye whiskey would be angels envy rye by far my favorite
High west campfire. Try it you won’t be disappointed
In my opinion if you can find Weller in general then congrats because in PA you can't find it for sh because all the bourbon snobbs around and everybody goes crazy for it
My recommendations for ryes under $40 would be Wild Turkey 101, Knob Creek 7yr, Rittenhouse, and Old Overholt Bottled in Bond
I didnt know yall had a show again!
That’s is for watching! We’re excited to be back. Please spread the word.
Sit back with some decent bourbon and a J or two ( in my case, my bub), hell yeah brother!
James E Pepper 1776 Rye is my favorite
I’d like your opinion on Texas ranger whiskey
You lookin' for rye bourbon? Get yourself some Bulleit Bourbon. Also get some Field of Dreams bourbon, just because Field of Dreams(the movie) corn field corn was used.
Good video. If you do a Rye comparison, definitely look at JD Bonded Rye, Old Overholt, and Rittenhouse for under 40.
Wild Turkey 101 is also fantastic for the price
Evan Williams bottled in bond is a great one under $40
Wild turkey rare breed rye is my go to for rye
Higher proof typically comes with more flavor. Probably why you like them more.
Bulleit rye, wild turkey 101 rye, and angels envy rye are all really good
Ol Forester 86 is the best bang for the buck bourbon hands down! I've done the research and have the documents! Cheaper than the 100 in the video and better in my opinion.
I agree
Elijah Craig will always be my #1 go-to.
High proof and cheap try old grandad 116. My favorite rye is Old Forester Rye when I can find it
The best Rye bourbons sound like a good video although I'm not a drinker myself.
Why's Boss's shirt have sleeves? Is it winter time?
Pendleton 1910 rye is a must
New Riff rye, New Riff Single Barrel Rye, whistle pig piggy back and Sazaracs should make the list for Ryes.
whistle Pig Rye is my Go to ... around 80 bucks but worth it imo.
Zero reaction your the man.
Buffalo trace
Russels reserve 10year
Wild turkey 101
All great choices under $40
You should try Old Grand Dad Bottled in Bond. Or... Old Grand Dad 114
Old grand dad 114
If you wanna try a really good rye, it's $40, but try Echo rye whiskey
My opinion the best sipping Rye for a bourbon drinker is Pikesville
You should try Old Elk
Elijah Craig rye one of my favorite
I love this video aaahh❤
We love that you love this video aaahh ❤️
