The Truth About Old Pepper Bourbon | Bottled-in-Bond Review
Welcome back, whiskey lovers! Today, we're diving into the rich history and bold flavors of Old Pepper Bourbon Bottled-in-Bond. This video was recorded at the end of 2024... but was kept on being pushed back to promote other videos. Hope to see you soon in the New Year with some new bottles!
Join us as we explore this classic bourbon, purchased from one of our favorite stores in Maryland, Angels Share in Crofton. If you stop by, be sure to mention Wilderness and Whiskey to Sam Chaney - he might just hook you up with some great recommendations or let you taste their amazing store picks!
As we nose and sip Old Pepper Bourbon, expect to encounter a symphony of flavors. The initial aroma greets you with warm vanilla and caramel, followed by hints of oak and baking spices. On the palate, you'll discover a robust blend of sweet corn, cinnamon, and black pepper, true to its name. The finish is long and satisfying, leaving you with a pleasant warmth and lingering notes of toasted nuts and dark fruit. Is this worth the price? Or even better than the decanter series that Tom loves so much!
What's your favorite bottled-in-bond bourbon, and how do you think it compares to Old Pepper? Let us know in the comments below!

WT101 is my go to under $30 bourbon.
Can’t wait to see what new bottles you will find and review this year!
Thanks! We’ve got a few bottles we have got already. Even our first 🦌! Stay tuned!
Blantons Original Single Barrel? Absolutely! Gold? Competes well. SFTB? Absolutely not! Ha!
Haven’t found SFTB at a price I like to try it out. One of these days I’ll see. I’m sure it’s delicious!
Nice vid guys! I also found our Estate 9 year and Marshmallow Toast in NJ! Haven’t cracked the MT yet, but the 9 year was just ok for us, and preferred the standard Penelope Toasted. I did hear the 10 year was better than the 9 too. Cheers! 🥃🥃
Marshmallow Toasted was our favorite bottle from 2024. We recommend that you open that bottle up.
Have a few of those Penelope bottles and they are pretty good, Love my Architect store pick, have a 10 year Estate bottle also (105 proof) Cheers 🥃👍
Didn’t know they also have a 105 proof!
i remember the guy on the left from Deliverance
Looks like someone's been binge-watching classic movies! Just remember, not every guy with a great beard is from Deliverance. Sometimes they're just really dedicated whiskey enthusiasts who got lost on their way to a bourbon tasting.
Did you ever try it in an old fashion?
I’ll have to bring over a bottle to your house and we will try it out!
It is really good
Highly recommend it!
Where did you find it?
Outside of DC in Landover!
This is the best $50 bourbon of the year for me! I need find the 8 year asia version to compare. I can probably buy one at Neat Bottle shop in Louisville but they charge $100. I agree with your tasting notes comparing to WT101. It doesn’t have the same bite as standard 101 , and the extra aging does give you a smoother feeling on the palate. Being a Turkey fanboy, i have back ups to back ups. And it’s definitely better than BT! Thanks guys!
I doubt we will come across the Asia version but we are happy with this bottle. This is one bottle I would imagine that will be in some liquor store museums already.
They was selling that in Total wine for $37.99 !!!!!!! On Long Island in Westbury Nassau county, New York
That’s a great deal and would buy that for sure!
I have tried it and actually enjoy it. However, can't find a single place that sells it.
I can’t find it anywhere now. I’m looking for another bottle of it too!
Good stuff!❤ Cheers!
Thanks the video of that store! Keep on exploring the goodness!
First
First? Well, in the famous words of Ricky Bobby, if you’re not first your last.
Shake and bake
Now you see me, now you don’t! The Magic Man!
14.99 and I'm going for more and mix it with lemonade
It’s came down in price here and is a great mixer for drinks!
Guys great video, thank you but leave all the bottles out on the table.
We will do that next time!
Can’t wait to try it
It’s delicious and was surprised by it. Ashley might even like it!
Nothing can kill the original Rio release
I think if we did a blind I would enjoy this one more. Might need to send you a sample!
Nice meeting you guys. Hope the tickets helped. I agree that it was a cluster and the extra bottles they pulled out was really dishonest. Don’t advertise 4 bottles you need to buy because it sets an expectation of a limited number of tickets, then bring out some random (and cheaper) bottles after selling out.
It was great to meet you as well. We totally agree! We did get some other great deals in Ellicott city at Pine Orchard and Petite Cellars.
Buy a bottle of something I don't want to enter a raffle to buy something I would want? No thanks.
There were a few bottles that I wanted… But so did everyone else and they were within the first 10 miles to go. We’re happy to at least get that rare character and not be stuck with a generic Blanton’s or High West.
what a label
Seriously! Kinda fun there are doing their own thing!
Thanks for your review! Just picked up a bottle and can’t wait to try this eve.
Hope you enjoy it!! They also make a decent Caribbean rum that has good flavor too
Got this recently made my think of brandy i enjoyed it I got it for 50 after tax in New Orleans
@@WildernessandWhiskey thanks! Will be on the lookout for it!
Yes, it has the BT profile and is better than Blanton's SiB. It's easier for me to get Blanton's at close to MSRP (I won't pay more than $70) than it is to get John J Bowman SiB at all.
That’s crazy! I’ve heard the same depending on what state you are in.
Heaven Hill and Take 5 are incredible on their own, not surprised they paired well!
I’m sure all the bourbon taste great with a take 5!
It’s not even close. John J is superior.
I’ve had single barrel Blanton’s picks that have been better than John J Bowman. But that’s the exception. Otherwise it’s John J. Bowman all the way.
I feel like something would need to be more available than Blantons to kill it personally. JJB is better, but still not something ill ever see. Definitely have seen way more Blantons than JJB
I feel like see more JJB because people are less familiar with it.
They are both Buffalo Trace juice. Bowman sources it from them.
Three years ago, a Bourbon Pursuit podcast interview with Bowmans revealed they use BT's "high wine" with their own mashbill percentages. They redistill this using pot stills, unlike BT's column stills. Both source barrels from the same cooperage. These factors contribute to Bowmans' similar taste to BT.
Great review. Keep them coming
Thanks for tuning in! Our live on Friday should be a fun one pairing Halloween candy with whiskey!
A Blanton's cork is notched to prevent the cork from popping off the bottle due to the pressure inside, essentially acting as a mechanism to help securely seal the bottle; this notch is a design feature intended to address potential leakage issues with the wax seal.
Wonder why other companies that have a wax seal don’t do the same!
First
Is the words of Ricky Bobby “If you’re not first, you’re last! Shake and Bake!”
"crack the zero steve" lol
You like that sniff from the bottle?
where did you find the jim beam maple?
Not sure where you live but this was found in Cheema Wine and Spirits in Southern Maryland.
@@WildernessandWhiskey i am in north florida...we get nothing here
¡ AMONGST OTHER RESPONSIBILITIES, i HANDLE "RECEIVING" AT my JOB & i HAVE FOUND THIS TO BE THE MOST USEFUL TOOL I COULD HAVE FOR OPENING BOXES AS WELL AS BREAKING THEM DOWN, THE PRY-EDGE IS INVALUABLE !
Nice to hear that the pry edge is an excellent tool for you!
$30?? It's $17 everywhere here.
I would assume it has gone down in price since then but haven’t searched it out! The 9% MD alcohol tax doesn’t help.
Work for the distributor in Michigan and they told us about this coming out in April 2024. We actually got cases of invengory in July. Our state minimum is 19.99
Working for the distributor?.. any future releases that we need to keep an eye out for?
@@WildernessandWhiskey there's a 70th anniversary wild turkey coming really soon that's in honor of Jimmy Russel.
I’ve been very happy with their lineup. The Rickhouse proofs definitely bring some spicy characteristics with them, but can compete with the big boys. Their wheat grain adds a slightly different profile compared to traditional wheaters. I usually let the rickhouse pours sit for about 10 minutes before drinking and they open up nicely.
I’ve been happy with their lineup too. Hope to try some more of theirs soon.
@@WildernessandWhiskey Recently bought a hand pick Rickhouse Wheat from Seelbach’s and it’s excellent. If you can find a Rickhouse hand pick I’d recommend giving it a try.
I got 2 in NE Oklahoma yesterday $16 each. I was sipping it neat last night...interesting and pretty good. I was getting some oak as in their double oaked.🥃😋👍
I will have to get a new sip of it and see if I get the same flavors!
I just got this bottle yesterday in a small liquor store. Just sitting on the shelf. Gonna crack it open this week
Happened to pick up the same barrel at Esquire in Oxon Hill. This is really unique - smells like a bourbon but much spicier on the palate. Rare Character is on my list now for really good picks from legacy distillers - MGP, Heaven Hill, etc.
We are 2 for 2 of great Rare Character profiles. I’m looking forward exploring more of their stuff. We also got our Fortuna from Esquire. Cannot recommend that store any more! Top quality on customer service and products!
@@WildernessandWhiskey I'm a big fan of Esquire! (Not a fan of the Fortuna, though - tried one at S&W and it is just hot MGP.)
Honestly it is not great at all. It's very heavy in my opinion, and I like turkey 101. I was very disappointed
It’s decent for what it is.. not my go to mixer but a very easy mixer. Would be a great rail mixer at a bar!
$16 at my local in Northwest Florida.
That’s the right price !
Hats and t-shirts! Looking good!
Thanks! We’re trying out new designs and hope to have an online store soon .
yup i got one from mexico. however this is available on some military bases. Its pretty damn good, and taste better imo than jack bonded sold in usa normal stores
Haven’t seen it at any military bases. But did recently buy a JD Barrel Proof Rye Heroes Edition at 130 proof
Got one today, well see how it tastes later.
Mine is finished already! I really enjoyed it…. Obviously
Look on that bottle it should say sour mash Usa version does not say sour mash
It does say sour mash on it!
Aruba, Jamaica, ooo I wanna take ya
Can’t wait to go back. Not the best selection of whiskey on our resort but did find a great bar with old fashioned and manhattans on our last night!
Wow you guys REALLY know your stuff holy smokes
Thanks for the compliment! Hope you’re just as impressed with our future videos!
In CA, you don't need a membership to purchase alcohol
I did not know that! Hope the selection is better than what’s usually here in DC
If you dont have a costco membership what are you doing??? Lmao😅 ....i agree! Great video
Thanks for the comment! It’s totally worth the investment! Especially if you can get alcohol there!
Not the costco guys I was expecting
