Average Joe's Whiskey
เข้าร่วมเมื่อ 12 ก.ย. 2023
I'm Joe, a self-taught whiskey genius. I started this channel after my second heart surgery in 7 years, as I wanted to put more effort into what I’m passionate about. And what I’m passionate about is whiskey. I’ve been a whiskey drinker and appreciator for over 15 years and an enthusiast for around 4 years. I believe that whiskey is where science and art intersect. It has the power to bring people together and should be fun! Here we cover any and all whiskey related topics: nosing and tasting, hunting, experimenting, distilling and aging, blending, and appreciating it.

I Saved a TON of Money Bourbon Hunting in Miami
มุมมอง 2.8Kวันที่ผ่านมา
I just spent 5 days in Southwestern Miami and between family time, I went bourbon hunting at several local stores, without a guide or any recommendations. I had high hopes that I would find some excellent whiskey since Florida is not a control state like my home, Virginia. Find out how it went in this video!

Best Available Rye Whiskey Bottles You Can Find on the Shelf Right Now
I got mine for $170 via raffle at my big box store.
A good store pick beats 99% of these allocated bottles people spend time "hunting". Im starting to wonder if people actually like bourbon, or just scavenger hunts.
Just didn’t go to the right places. I hunt and find stuff here all the time. Sometimes even at MSRP
I love the video but terrible behavior from everyone involved. The vulture mentality literally waiting for the poor man to stock it on the shelf is some of the worst I have seen.
Great choices. I would sub OGD bib for WT 101 as a mixer, but all else are solid.
Opium is safer and of a better class
Congrats 🎉🎉🎉
Is this Burke?
Nah I need those 1792. Be in the area tomorrow but bet they’re looooong gone
Congratulations 🎊 Thoughts on Pappy Van Winkle? Just Curious
Haven’t had the pleasure unfortunately. I’ll have to find a 15 year for 5k subscribers I guess 😂
@@averagejoeswhiskey When you get to 5k subs, we can crack mine and try it out. I've only opened my ORVW and Lot "B" for far. Love 'em.
70th too expensive $100 here in ny
We got some in common lol. Cheap mixer - WT101 Daily drinker - woodford Double oaked (got it for my wedding as I was getting into whiskey. Picked from a groomsman, so it’s sentimental, also good) Friday night - Stagg Jr (one of my favorites. Constantly blinds and wins) Impress guests - Willett family estate purple top (mine is a 10yr) Special occasion - RR15 or 13 (if I don’t have a 15)
Happy Turkey Day Joe!
Getting a little sauced by that last pour 😂
Do you only drink bourbon by Wild Turkey? There are other distilleries too.
Rare Breed is perfect for a daily pour🥃🥃
It’s whiskey not wine. Drink it like a man, man 😊😊😊😊
I am more of a cheapskate, $21 to $37 a bottle. My 4 rebuys are 100 proof Old Grand-Dad, 100 proof Early Times, 100 proof Coopers' Craft, and 90 proof Bernheim Original Wheat Whiskey. For a special occasion, my wife paid for 6 tastings at J Mattingly in Frankfort, Kentucky and she bought my favorite for my 65th birthday, a $120 Open Doors bourbon at 122 proof.
Not a fan of the Turkey with the exception being the Kentucky Spirit. I recently picked up the 70th anniversary bottle so maybe I’ll crack that on turkey day.
I’m thankful for you
That Petite Sirah finish High West is sooo good
Looks like someone is gobbling the RR 15 for 🦃 day
Have another drink.
That's a lot of Turkey right in time for Turkey Day!! 😁 Hope you're all having a great Thanksgiving/Food Coma Day!
Was there a drop.?? You hear that they can’t even tell you anymore if there’s a drop or what’s allocated on the shelf so you don’t miss anything. The new drop system got even worse
No drop, just some ECBP leftover. What they’re willing to tell you seems to depend on the store and the employees.
@@averagejoeswhiskey i was told yesterday (when writing the comment) that they got direction saying NOT to say anything moving forward. apparently because people were hiding allocated bottles in the store and coming back later to get more.
🥃
John J bowman single barrel all day.
Congrats!!!! 😎
Correction: It’s a 125.00 bottle of whiskey.
Technically true. Please grab me a couple next time you see them at that price!
@ 😂😂 if only…..prices on secondary are coming down though.
Correction: just because you paid 1000 dollars doesn’t mean it’s worth 1000 dollars. Secondary had everybody messed up and I think this is why we as bourbon drinkers are in the predicament we are in. MSRP is what the bottle is. Secondary is something else. That’s awesome you have the bottle and got to enjoy it! Congrats!
Wanna know what smells even better to me? A thousand $1 bills. Maybe one day $1000 won't smell as good as a bourbon, but I'm happy that day has come for you.
Can’t say I’ve ever smelled a thousand $1 bills. Probably only strippers see that kind of paper. 😂 I get your point though, and truth be told, this was acquired via trade, expensive trade but at least I didn’t have to come out of pocket. I wouldn’t spend $1,000 on a bottle either. Except maybe a Double Eagle or Michter’s Celebration, would have to be worth many thousands of dollars.
Congrats brotha! Well deserved and wishing you nothing but success on the road to 5k
Atta boy!!!
Pocket change to a guy like me…
Sadly this was about a year’s worth of trade ammo for me 😕
Just copped one for $180 🎉
You may have paid 1k but that is not a 1k bottle brother
Fort Lauderdale has more. Also look in total wines
Wal Mart liquor has the goods at MSRP
Mega wine is terrible for bourbon ABC good stuff is behind their point system Publix get buffalo trace 2-3 times a year Total wine gets special bottles every now and then around allocation season. Their staff is trained to push there partner bourbons but they’re all trash There are mom and pop shops but most are hood liquor stores with minimal selection or completely overpriced allocations (100 eagle rare, 150 Blanton, 300 Stagg, 1k brac) Really just awful here in Florida for bourbon
Not the best representation of bourbon hunting in FL. Can’t lump one small pocket of Miami or wherever as that is how the rest of the state is. Talk to clerks, build relationships. Oh, don’t go to ABC looking to score allocated stuff. They have a rewards system. There is life outside of state controlled stores. 😂
For sure. It was an admittedly small pocket with no store recommendations.
Bro went to ABC to find allocated bourbons!
for the love of god, please edit out the Ring doorbell noise next time
Shit, I had a great hunting experience in Orlando. You should have checked to see if other bourbon hunters have been to Miami instead of asking a local discord.
The prices for Kentucky Owl have been dropping everywhere. You can find the Batch 12 for less than $150 some times. Florida is tough ScottW said it best a few comments below. I go to small spots when I'm in FL to find dusty bottles not allocated bottles.
We appreciate your reviews of LF Heritage Distilling (Limestone Farms) and look forward to seeing you in the future when we open.
pathetic
Coming from a big box liquor store, don't expect to walk into a liquor store and ask if there is any allocated bottles not on the shelf. Establishing a relationship with your local stores is the best way.
The key to Florida bourbon hunting in Florida is much like it is in Virginia. You need to know when the drops happen. Anything that’s allocated is gone that day. We have a very efficient Facebook page here for hunting Bourbons., much like your discord in Virginia For example today I picked up a Elijah Craig 18 and a Bookers 2024 reserve for MSRP at Publix. Buffalo Trace allocated is often gone in a day but when it comes into Walmart and other big stores it is near MSRP. ABC stores put their good bourbons in their vault program. Usually the only allocated they have is Weller Special Reserve. As you found out just showing up doesn’t get you much in the way of bourbons.
Joe you needed to find a total wine I go to them in Florida all the time and usually find some good stuff 🥃
I was in the ft meyers area recently. Publix had every allocated bottle but prices were outrageous. Had at least 25 bottles of Russell 15 and would not budge at all. Tried if I spend x amount but would not negotiate.
Haha. Saved a ton because there wasn’t anything worth buying.
