A bit of fun background on these cheap scotch blends, you can literally go to these bulk white label companies and get custom scotch made. You don't really buy based on flavor, you buy based on malt content. Ranges for 5% malt and 95% grain to around 60/40 for some of the "high end" stuff. 10,000 bottle or more orders. The cheapest stuff gets down to 3 bucks a bottle wholesale.
"Why am I here?" "Wow" "Nope". "This is really Bad" "The cost to your soul" "Drink this before a colonoscopy" "Don't buy it". I laughed my a$$ off today, thanks guys!
Sometimes I have the feeling that all whisky's from the German discounters like this one, Queen Margot from Lidl and Old House No.1 from Netto are all the same stuff. At least Lidl has some good whisky's but sadly they sell the good stuff only online.
Good to see the Butch! Great advice on the Statesman. I would be interested in more about the award winning scotch that I believe is sold at Aldi Europe, definitely at Lidl. Queen Margot, Glen Marnoch and Ben Bracken Brands.
At Aldi's I've seen wine beer. I'm in New York in Florida. It was just wine and beer. Also trader Joe's is good. They got some good bourbon. The scottch I bought I didn't try yet !!!!!!
Dear big belly Scotchmen. Stop with the seed oils forever. You will loose weight. Stop with the soda, again loose weight.. Belly will go down. Then do some fasting. Dry or wet. You decide. Love the budget showdowns to know what not to get EVER. Ocho by your recommendation is fire.

Basically most of the bottom shelf stuff if the price is similar is the same repackaged garbage that's 95% 3 year grain.
The cheapest stuff reaches the point where the glass bottle is the major cost component.
@@davidm4255 the packaging is more expensive by a multiple. Correct
When Dutch asked, “How is the nose” and Dillon burst out laughing. 😆

Awe man I miss the Butcher from Bakersfield!!!
Flash back to the guild days.
The bourbon guild music at the end ❤
You are so right. Yesterday bought a bottle.. I bought a bottle of Cola with it. Cola is a must. It should be sold as a package.
I haven’t had a ‘bad’ whisky in a while, and I had a similar reaction to you guys when i tried a pour of Grants whisky at a supermarket😅
"Shotch" and "Dootch"😅
Jules looks different....what happened 😂

No hard booze at Aldi in the states; beer and wine only.

Replicated scotch… nice wink to the TNG episode “Relics”
Are you guys planning on a vegas episode again in the future?
Definitely hoping to in the future!
@@CuriosityPublic maybe a freemont edition
It might show up in the U.S. at Aldi's brother's store Trader Joe's.
Cooking whisky?
