Round 1) Neither would know anything about the products and rank them Round 2) Match the 10 ranked sips…. From 12 on the supplied list…. 2a) compares their individual listings of correctly identified sips…. Enjoy these surprises❣️
You guys should consider this same exact blind say 4-6 weeks from now and see how everything plays out then - I’d love to see how different/same they would end up.
my sentiments exactly. how subjective are the results? or if you run this again with just 5 or 6 will they hold the same relative positions in the ranking?
Only eight minutes into this video.... This is a blast..... I'm thinking 90%of the drinkers out there drink at this price level , but still have that special bottle or two in the bar.... So far I've seen at least 4 bourbons I've tried but you are adding to my list... Great Show..
All I can say is WOW!!! I give both of you a lot of credit for even trying this blind, much less finishing. Nice job. I can't wait for the next super blind. Cheers!
As a guy who recently fell in love with Maker's Mark Cask Strength, their Wood Finishing Series, and their Private Selections (store picks), this video put a smile on my face.
I think it goes to show that you can't sit there and taste 10 bourbons and expect your palate to not be skewed. Maybe 4 or 5 but 10 is just way too many to call it.
Nothing like starting my morning watching a bourbon blind. I stayed to the end. I don't mind the length at all. 10 bottles in a blind is insane, just cracks me up you tried it. Mayhem ensued.. I'll have to try Very Old Barton 100 proof and the Benchmark Single Barrel. Here in Kansas City, OGD114 is $26, OGD bib is $21. At our local grocery store, all three Redwood Empire core releases are $29.99. Keep up the good work....of course, I'd watch your channel if you were commenting while watching paint dry.
Watched the whole thing and I gotta say the ending was kinda funny when Kurt had to ask what Trenton’s top 3 was even though they were directly in front of him in order 😂
This was very interesting and informative. It seems to me to demonstrate in spades that it all depends upon the order in which whiskies are tasted. Every single taste affects and alters the palate. It doesn't mean anything more. WT 101 is still terrific. It just tastes different when you imbibe other whiskies first.
I've been fortunate to avoid retail jobs most of my life, but I can definitely understand getting flustered and having trouble focusing on exact change when you have a bunch of impatient customers eager to get to the next store.
Watched to the end. Great video. It was a lot to follow but it was interesting. This goes to show that depending on the day, what one person picks can vary wildly from what they might another day! Love Early Times BIB, glad to see it won in Trenton's lineup.
I haven't had WT101 in nearly a long time and the bottles I had were from 8-9 years ago. Back in the day, before my bottles, it used to have an age statement (7 yrs?). Maybe they're resting on laurels and releasing younger stuff to push out more product. OGD BiB did so-so in a big BiB blind I did. But OGD 114 was next level. It's worth the price bump. I'm glad MM did so well with Kurt. Consistent, delicious products from a distillery with an unmuddled, genuine history. And Beam Suntory seems to have left them to remain awesome.
Coool vid! I have a question: What do you guys do with the remaining bourbon in the glass when you’re finished? Do you drink, pour out, infinity bottle it, or put back in bottle? Thx Cheers! 🍻
I’m not a fan of videos over 30 min HOWEVER I loved this video. You all are so entertaining!!!! Love my makers, had my first one in 1984 or 85. Consistent excellent taste and available everywhere at a good price
Great video. The looks were classic. I love ET BIB and OF 100. Surprised there wasn't a EC Small Batch in the mix, but I understand you can't include everything.
Making me appreciate entry Makers Mark again. I recently finished off a bottle of OF100, and the Makers offers a nicer coating of the mouth. If we were talking oil viscosities, Makers is heavier than the high proof Old Forester and therefore enhances the experience for me 🎉 All these bottles hit so close to home 😅
I've bought nearly all of these at one time or another, but I'm not a collector so I seldom have more than two or three at any given time. I'd love to do this blind because I honestly have *no idea* what my ranking would be. It would be nice to find, say, my top three with different taste profiles and then keep those on hand.
I really enjoyed this! It wasn’t too long mainly because you guys are entertaining. Definitely do the Top 5 blind too! Then the bottom 5. Take the top two from each of those and do a “final four” shootout!
Nice job! Watched until the end! I’m not much into the lower end bottles but I do like the 1783 occasionally. All the other bottles I gave away:) Cheers!
Great content guys!! 101 is my most reached for bottle, and I will say in the last year it seems like the 101 has gone inconsistent. Ive had a bottle that wasnt bad but I did notice I didnt reach for it much, and my most recent bottle I feel like is the best 101 bottle I've ever had.... and its going quick lol.
Had my first bottle of WT101 because every TH-cam channel had it recommended and it is the worst whiskey I'VE ever tried. It is bitter and no sweet notes at all.
Great video, surprised your guys were still standing at the end. I have the bottom 6 of Kurt's list, cannot get Early Times in my area. Not that crazy about Very Old Barton, good for the price. Love the Beam 7, Buffalo Trace and Old Grandad bonded
Def wanna see a top 5! I poured 7 of these 10 from my own stock and had the Mrs. Mix em up. Typically, my tastes tend to side with Trenton. This time I was more Team Kurt. And I TOO ranked 101 last and I love that bottle. Thanks for another cool show. Cheers boys!!
I hear ya. Rough state for bourbon fans. Mostly just standard release juice and very little in the way of allocated. I've never seen Early Times BIB here in Bama. Luckily, I'm close enough to TN and better offerings.
Kurt and Trenton: Sorry it's so confusing, we won't do this again.
The audience: Do it again...
Agreed, push yourselves, 12 next time. 😆
… but don’t give Trenton shrooms before the next one!
We need a blind of 10 cask strength bourbons!!!! Things would get wild during that blind
Love this! Talk about zapping your palate 😅
Round 1) Neither would know anything about the products and rank them
Round 2)
Match the 10 ranked sips…. From 12 on the supplied list….
2a) compares their individual listings of correctly identified sips…. Enjoy these surprises❣️
Agreed
10 cask strengths…😮
After the video's end what happens to all the left over Whiskey? There is 20 glasses on the worktop lol
You guys should consider this same exact blind say 4-6 weeks from now and see how everything plays out then - I’d love to see how different/same they would end up.
my sentiments exactly. how subjective are the results? or if you run this again with just 5 or 6 will they hold the same relative positions in the ranking?
And maybe with a couple fresh bottles. Great idea.
Yep, same lineup, fresh bottles. Would be a hit video especially if they reference this one in it first.
Amen! Do it again, you know for science!
Almost agree, it should be a double blind of same thing so they aren't tempted to try to guess or alter lineup
This can’t be your last 10 bottle blind! Loved this format ❤
Kurt's face when 101 was pulled out for last place 😂😂
That's just some good television right there 👌
Only eight minutes into this video.... This is a blast..... I'm thinking 90%of the drinkers out there drink at this price level , but still have that special bottle or two in the bar.... So far I've seen at least 4 bourbons I've tried but you are adding to my list... Great Show..
love the longer form video!! you guys are such a good duo it's always entertaining
All I can say is WOW!!! I give both of you a lot of credit for even trying this blind, much less finishing. Nice job. I can't wait for the next super blind. Cheers!
Absolutely LOVED this video! Thanks for getting my Friday kicked off with a bang!😂
As a guy who recently fell in love with Maker's Mark Cask Strength, their Wood Finishing Series,
and their Private Selections (store picks), this video put a smile on my face.
FAE-02 was one of my favorites
@@joel-amold Thanks! I've got one, that I still haven't opened yet. Love BEP, and a couple Private Selections best.
Wow, blinding 10. Not the best idea y'all have had, but one of the most entertaining videos ever.
Hung in there the whole time with you guys. Thanks for the laughs.
Wow, both you put my two favorite budget bourbons (cocktail bourbons) dead last.
This was one of my favorite videos! You guys are a great pair!
It may be opposite day, but this just goes to show that palates can be different based on the day and the time of day and a host of other variables.
I agree 👍
I think it goes to show that you can't sit there and taste 10 bourbons and expect your palate to not be skewed. Maybe 4 or 5 but 10 is just way too many to call it.
Oh my god! Bartender just gimmie a bottle!
I know this was tough to pull off for you guys, but this video was one of the most entertaining you guys have done😊
Great fun guys! Results always vary. Tomorrow is a new day. Just enjoyed hanging this morning!😂
Kurt’s face when Trenton said he was a professional! lol 😂
Nothing like starting my morning watching a bourbon blind. I stayed to the end. I don't mind the length at all. 10 bottles in a blind is insane, just cracks me up you tried it. Mayhem ensued.. I'll have to try Very Old Barton 100 proof and the Benchmark Single Barrel. Here in Kansas City, OGD114 is $26, OGD bib is $21.

I loved this video. Loved the longer video and seeing Trenton become an extrovert haha.
You guys are almost always my breakfast at work watch every Monday,Wednesday and Friday
Awesome episode! Thank you for doing what you do!
Great show! Liked the longer video! Can’t wait for the crown royal distillery review 😂😂
Hilarious and fun video guys. Thanks for the entertainment and really showing how things can change in your pallet from day to day
Watched the whole thing and I gotta say the ending was kinda funny when Kurt had to ask what Trenton’s top 3 was even though they were directly in front of him in order 😂
he was so distraught he couldn't think straight
Loved the long video and a surprise ending is always entertaining.
Definitely feel like the numbers got switched around a bit
Barton and Early Times are consistently tops in our house! Enjoyed this! You guys are hysterical! ❤
Great Video Guys . I look forward to the Top 5 blind..
This was very interesting and informative. It seems to me to demonstrate in spades that it all depends upon the order in which whiskies are tasted. Every single taste affects and alters the palate. It doesn't mean anything more. WT 101 is still terrific. It just tastes different when you imbibe other whiskies first.
Big fan of 1783. It’s the cheapest of those available in PA, but that’s just a bonus. I like it better than EW b-i-b too
I agree. I think it's a better sipper. BiB is better for cocktails, IMO, but 1783 is a solid cheap daily sip.
Loved this video and like you guys an blown away at the bottom 3 picks.
Yes to blinding the top 5. Tough video for yinz, great video for us fans. Great stuff guys!
I washed the whole thing and do agreed that Trenton and was partially responsible for the downfall of Bed Bath and Beyond going bankrupt😂😂
I've been fortunate to avoid retail jobs most of my life, but I can definitely understand getting flustered and having trouble focusing on exact change when you have a bunch of impatient customers eager to get to the next store.
You guys did the work for this one 👏👏👏👏
Watched to the end. Great video. It was a lot to follow but it was interesting. This goes to show that depending on the day, what one person picks can vary wildly from what they might another day! Love Early Times BIB, glad to see it won in Trenton's lineup.

Great video. I really enjoyed it. 😊
That was a wild ride! Great video. I really enjoyed this one. Cheers🥃
Coool vid! I have a question: What do you guys do with the remaining bourbon in the glass when you’re finished? Do you drink, pour out, infinity bottle it, or put back in bottle? Thx Cheers! 🍻
Watched the whole shooting’ match…well done gents 👏🥃
Have you ever did a top 5 or 10 Port finished or Sherry finished Bourbons?
long format videos are the way to go!! Really enjoyed!!
It's real damascus, factory made stuff. We have one of the chef knives from a wedding wish list. Thank you Laura. It's a great knife
1783 was my entry to bourbon bottle. i need to go back and try my old buddy. great vid!
Kurt's going to have to change teams - the blind has spoken...! Welcome to Team Makers Mark !
I’m not a fan of videos over 30 min HOWEVER I loved this video. You all are so entertaining!!!! Love my makers, had my first one in 1984 or 85. Consistent excellent taste and available everywhere at a good price
Great video. The looks were classic. I love ET BIB and OF 100. Surprised there wasn't a EC Small Batch in the mix, but I understand you can't include everything.
I love Very Old Barton I am so happy to see it getting some love
All the way to the end! Really have enjoyed watching you guys.
Also, I love the long video format. Also, what happened to the picture Trenton? Lol 42:32
I would like to see a blind of the top 5. Great video guys thank you.
Making me appreciate entry Makers Mark again. I recently finished off a bottle of OF100, and the Makers offers a nicer coating of the mouth.

Great blind, very enjoyable! Keep up the great work.

I'd love to do this blind because I honestly have *no idea* what my ranking would be. It would be nice to find, say, my top three with different taste profiles and then keep those on hand.
I love your guy’s videos you both do a great job. If you ever need a novice to be a part of a video let me know.
This was great fun to watch!
Tonight's show ended up as Hurt & Trenton 😂
I really enjoyed this! It wasn’t too long mainly because you guys are entertaining. Definitely do the Top 5 blind too! Then the bottom 5. Take the top two from each of those and do a “final four” shootout!
Nice job! Watched until the end! I’m not much into the lower end bottles but I do like the 1783 occasionally. All the other bottles I gave away:) Cheers!
Great content guys!! 101 is my most reached for bottle, and I will say in the last year it seems like the 101 has gone inconsistent.

Good stuff! Just got a title of Old Tub BIB and it’s great at the price.
Great video. Maker's always does well in these type of comparisons.
Stayed until the end!! Loved it
I hope you all do the top 3 groups! Great video.
Thanks guys for the fun episode!
Great video, surprised your guys were still standing at the end. I have the bottom 6 of Kurt's list, cannot get Early Times in my area. Not that crazy about Very Old Barton, good for the price. Love the Beam 7, Buffalo Trace and Old Grandad bonded
Really enjoyed this. Got 2 new bottles to try from this. Maybe 3.
GOLF….not G-String😂💀
Watched the whole episode. It was great
I keep going back to your blind review of glass "E". Brutal!!!
That was great. I'm sure it was a bit much for you guys to taste all ten. I'd agree with Kurt's picks on this one. Thanks!
Great blind guys. Y'all are awesome
Def wanna see a top 5! I poured 7 of these 10 from my own stock and had the Mrs. Mix em up. Typically, my tastes tend to side with Trenton. This time I was more Team Kurt. And I TOO ranked 101 last and I love that bottle. Thanks for another cool show. Cheers boys!!
Trenton, my man! You came through with the ET BiB, my favorite
Loved the long video! Hilarious that y’all kicked Turkey 101 first thing!
very interesting....thank you...
Kurt looks ready to cry @35:00 😂😂😂😂
Trenton's sneaky stare at the camera after the @9:24 "dipped a teabag in the juice here" (while Kurt is trying not to laugh)... HAHAHA.
Not a bad bottle on the table. Thanks, gentlemen!
I love blending my favorites & come out with awesomeness 👍🏻
Love this video!!! Blinds sure screw with your mind and taste buds!!! 😂😂😂😂
there is nothing with your line up Kurt.... just happened to fall that way, great vid guys
made it to the end.... top 5 with 101.......
I never do blinds of more than 4, just for the reason you citied.
Sometimes, three is four too many ❤️🔥🤪
Sure wish I could get benchmark easily in Bama. It seems like solid budget.
I hear ya. Rough state for bourbon fans. Mostly just standard release juice and very little in the way of allocated. I've never seen Early Times BIB here in Bama. Luckily, I'm close enough to TN and better offerings.
Well my beloved Wild Turkey came in last place, I’m still going to keep drinking it, I’m also really feeling Jim Beam 7.
Yes I’m curious about that crown single malt. Let’s see a review.
Stuck in there till the end. I loved the WT 101 until I had the ET B&B. ET is my jam.
Wow, that’s all I can say! 😮
Great video, loved it!
Your thoughts on Forbidden bourbon whiskey? Made by the first female distiller. 75% white corn, 13% barley, and 13% white wheat. Thanks
What happens if you dump the tem leftovers into a mason jar and swirl it then pour out a "dram" to down...?
I made it all the way through the video. Well done gentlemen.
Have all of these on the bar but Old Barton. Hard to get that in the Atl market.
Trenton’s top 2 are my top 2. Now where can I find Early Times BIB?
Love this video! What a shocker, too
Can't wait for the top 5! No WT 101. Last place finish doesn't deserve a second chance.🤯
Watched the whole thing!!
OGD 114 is at Costco in my area for $19 right now. I wish I could find Early Times BiB though
Just curious, what state are you in? I found it selling for 19.99 in WI.
I'm in WI
I would really enjoy trying to do this same blind but 2 of the bottles are allocated and unattainium for us. The Barton BIB and the BTac
