I will definitely get the WT Triumph when I get down to Kentucky later this summer. I would love to get the OF President's Choice. Other channels are raving about it. I've never had one so there is no way I would pass on a bottle for MSRP.

I'd predict that Origin Series to actually be #1 or 2. I love it and wrecked the bottle I had. Sadly it's not distributed in my state and my neighboring state has been light on them. The other bottles I'd expect in the top 3... Grizzly Beast and Maybe Early Times (but that youth is obvious to me) or Wilderness Trail.

1792 BIB has really been pushed in some states lately. In Missouri we don't see much of it but we got a TON of Full proof this year (compared to zero last year) and in IL half the stores you visit have a case of BIB and Full Proof ready to go. Henry McKenna is readily available in most stores in Missouri and Illinois now. Was always available in western states last time I traveled over there so I think people are just buying it much slower. It's a GREAT bottle and it's $55 in my area. I wish it was $45-50 everywhere but at $55 I'm happy to drink it anytime.

Redwood Empire Grizzly Beast batch 3 is insane. It's actually my favorite bottles that came out from a craft distillery in the past year. They stuff they are putting out with their own distillate is far superior to their stuff with MGP. JD Bonded is great. Smashes EHT small batch IMO. It's a complete whiskey.

Agree w you 💯 about that 15 year Penelope. Tried it and went out and immediately grabbed a backup.

We have the secondary market and inflation to thank for these outrageous whiskey prices. Distilleries are seeing people pay stupid prices on bottles in the secondary and are trying to get some of that revenue.

Knob Creek Rye 10 year for $70.. I'll take that all day! Hell, Little Book 8 for $150 smokes this!

Triumph is your favorite rye of the year? There have been a TON of ryes this year and that seems like a bold claim. Agnostic of price... it's maybe a top 3-5 (I haven't tried it) but when you factor in price I can't think of any 2 bottles of rye I've enjoyed this year that add up to the same price tag... and I'm including little book chapter 8 at $160. Basically there is little book at $160 and I can't think of another good rye that released this year for $90+. My 2 favorite rye's of the year, right now, are Planters 100% Malted Rye (Missouri only atm), and Old Potrero Toasted Single Barrel. Both of those bottles are around 75-80. After those, JD SBBP's are absolutely killing it still. Old Overholt 10year is great (it was $80 in my area), Still Austin BIB Rye ($75-80), RY3 Naranja Wine Cask Finished ($75), Bardstown Origin Rye (new in my area, $60), KC 10 yr Rye ($65)... Every one of those bottles is a killer. The first 2 listed are just a next level. The bottle of rye I haven't tried yet that probably blows all of these away is the EHT Barrel Proof Rye. The straight rye is the only EHT product I actually really like and some extra proof will probably make the rye notes explode. Won't be a profile for the non-rye crowd and that's fine with me. Main point is Master's Keep Rye could be pretty good but the value proposition with the quality of rye products, and ages, hitting the market this year really makes it a terrible option. If money is not an option (which clearly you guys don't mind) then sure, it could be okay. For most people it should be a pass. $250 needs to be life changing, unicorn level whiskey. If you can get 90% of the same experience with a $65 KC 10 year... then yeah that's a problem.

Why do you have so many bottles on the shelf with 1-2oz left in them? They are going to be oxidized to hell and back at this point. Good to see you drink these bottles but seems you have a REAL BIG fomo about killing bottles. If you want a cool looking set just do what half of YT does - refill them with something else and use them as a prop. But in the meantime it seems super strange to save that last 1-2 oz by letting it literally go flat. You could transfer it to a smaller vessel if you wanted to keep it for comparison sake. It's your whiskey, obviously, but I'm not seeing the strategy of keeping whiskey so that it goes flat and is off profile.

A buy or pass from this channel is pretty funny... considering you buy everything you can get your hands on. If you don't want it you buy it to trade (which is part of the downfall of the whole consumer experience)

The disco 11 is wonderful. Super smooth, great mouth feel and isn't one note...

Some good stuff there...my rotation as of late is Eagle Rare (both regular release and a store pick that's fruit forward), Old Forester full proof store pick I found at Gelson's in Santa Barbara, and Benchmark full proof. I've got some 1792 small batch and Heaven Hill 7yr BIB calling my name once a few of the previous bottles are emptied. Keep up the good work guys

At 9:00, David buffering

Well hopefully that means eh taylor rye will stop being $250 right… haha

MM throws a piece of wood in a $30 bourbon, increases the price by 150%, then calls it a limited release.

Rare Breed wins so many blinds against similar priced bottles it's insane. You have to enjoy the rye kick on the finish to enjoy WT products. Those that don"t enjoy the Kentucky hug and like more candy flavored booze wont enjoy this wonderful product....

Great video. But what's with the stingy pours? It's like a tease because I absolutely love this stuff.

You hit it with the last one - so enjoying 1924… dark, oaky goodness…

Johnson Brothers absolutely piss poor distribution in the upper Midwest tells me a case of this will hit at least 2 or 3 store shelves in Iowa or Nebraska. 😂

I can't wait to try this. Will camp for that bottle

I am surprised E.H. Taylor didn’t make the list. Good video. Thanks for the review.

Still 70$ flat for me, the sbbp that is. Havent come across the rye version but will Def pick it up if it's the same price.

My favorite BIBs right now are Holladay soft red wheat, and 1792

No Ben Holladay?

Would rather get secondary after the hype cools down a little Almost impossible to get it for rrp

EHT BIB

Awesome line up fellas. Hilarious video you both have to get a whiskey glow on more often😂😂😂

Before I watch I hope you don’t look at your watch 😂😊

About friggin time!!

I loved the Chattanooga BIB I had. It was so easy to drink. I killed it pretty quick..

Oh yay. Another buffalo trace product that you can't find...

The Benchmark series is just a great lineup of easy-on-the-wallet whiskeys. Thanks for the review - and for sampling so many. 👍🏼

Solid blind. I really enjoy the Chatanooga, but I missed seeing Old Tub in there??

Benchmark is solid, but Id take JD bonded over it 10/10 times. Benchmark tastes like 4 year BT at 100 proof. Not enough there for me to take it in the top spot. I think bardstown might give JD a run for its money, but if I could only pick one it would be the JD. Just too good for the money.

This is great! Finally Dave has to admit 1792 BiB doesn’t suck!!!! 😂😂

Love Rare Breed. Have yet to try out the rye

I scored two at $54.99 at TW….love old forester in general…some exceptions though…

I do have WT stuff on my shelf, but it's never really clicked for me. At about 50 bucks I'd much rather grab a Knob Creek 12 or Jack Daniels SiB BP Rye than a Rare Breed.

OK, I would place OF 1897 ahead of all of these. Given the OF fanboy-ism of Zack, how was this not in this blind? It is always on the shelf and is really tasty.

Evan Williams bottled in bond is crap

I wonder how many of the 4 EH Taylor bottles in the center of the video say Bottled In Bond...the Bardstown BiB possibly my 1st spot

I'm really surprised that the Evan Williams did so poorly. That and Benchmark are my go-to BiB.

I'm partial to my Evan Williams bottled in bond, but I need to grab some of the Benchmark. I always see it at Total Wine but for some reason I never bend down to grab it.

Damn 15. Would've never thought Benchmark would win this.

Watch everyday at lunch, love the channel. I'd love to see a video maybe taking about best places online to find bottles or any suggestions you may have finding bottles for people outside of where distilleries are. Also, a video showing favorite bottles, how much you paid, and how much you'd pay secondary. I'm typically stuck with ordering online and there stuff like 13th colony cask strength is 350-400 and thank goodness i heard your review bc I was contemplating buying that bc I've always wanted a 13th colony double oaked but those are $1kish. 👊🏻👊🏻🥃.

I’m not as think as you drunk I am! 🤣🙌

I am with you on the Benchmark Bonded, it is one of my favorite bonded shelfers. I am also a big fan of New Riff BiB.
