I, for one, am not concerned about video length. I'll watch all of it.
Always watch at 1.5 or even 1.75. Absolutely LOVE Kurt and Trent - they're by far my fave whiskey channel - but the guys talk too slow and include a lot of fun but irrelevant stuff. So I get to listen to their superb bourbon intelligence in a reasonable amount of time. 😂
This one is totally 2x-able
One Hundo amigo, I agree.
If I don't watch it all now, I'll watch it later. At just over half an hour, this one's about perfect for my lunch break, but if it went on longer I'd just finish watching it after work or tomorrow.
I don’t care what they’re talking about. The longer the better. 35 minutes of slb to start off my day means it’s going to be a good one.
Every time Trent says something like "I've never eaten a _____" or "I don't like ____" I can't help but wonder what kind of childhood he had LOL
I think he grew up playing in a trash dump. Always saying this one smells like an old moldy paper bag or this smells like rotten asparagus. This one tastes like chewed bubble gum that you find on the bottom of your shoe. This is definitely old mattress that aged in the sun 🤣
@@donfingers3320seeing as they are in the drywall business (at least I’m pretty sure) maybe he spent a lot of time running around job sites lol
Finally. Double Oaks are under appreciated in my opinion
THE LONGER THE BETTER
Another fantastic video guys, and I particularly enjoyed the tangents, keep em coming!
Thank you to taking your time with this one. I am a double oak "junkie" and have or have tried many of the ones you had in this blind, especially the Sagamore Rye! I paid about $130 for the Peerless DO Rye and love it but still would choose the Sagamore DO Rye for two reasons: 1) I love it, and 2) it is half the price of the Peerless!
FYI - The Peerless DO Bourbon is still selling for about $83 in San Antonio, TX when available.
A fun blind! Enjoyed all the nonsense. Perhaps that bottle of Peerless DO was left on top of the trash can or on Trenton’s back seat for a few days? Can’t believe it was last. In some respects it’s a blessing. It’s hard enough to find a bottle. Imagine if it came in first
It's my fave DO, but sadly the last time I had some it was off. I'm only about 1/3 through the bottle.
@@caninedivine that’s unfortunate 😩 Makes you wonder about mishandling at the store or in shipping. Perhaps it was a rare bad batch. Sorry to hear you got a clunker bottle. I had been searching all over for a bottle. I ended up finding a bottle while on vacation (at a grocery store!) and had to rearrange luggage to get it home under the weight limit. It’s a fabulous bottle. 108.4 proof Cheers
Great work Kyle, the unsung hero. Love the graphics work! Video length is fine, love the banter.
The Peerless, coming in last, really surprises me. I like it a lot. But, the Sagamore coming in first, doesn’t. It’s fantastic!
Congratulations to the entire crew on hitting 150K.
The Peerless DO is one of my current favorites! Picked up a few at $83.
Just picked up a Woodford Reserve Double Oaked. First time having and first double oaked. Dessert in a glass. Really fun getting into Bourbon, beer being our wheelhouse of course! Cheers gents 🍻
Whiskey aside for a moment, I agree with Kurt about not caring for the new country music. Give me Wille, Waylon and the boys! And throw in a tumbler of some of that Sagamore Double Oaked!!
Plenty of good modern country, you just have to look past the super popular stuff. Tyler Childers, Colter Wall, Sturgill Simpson, Charley Crockett, Jason Isbell, and Hayes Carll are all great
@@connorwilson4799agreed...to find good modern country you have to get off and awayfrom the country radio stations
@connorwilson4799 You are probably correct about that. For current music I lean more towards bluegrass like The Price Sisters, but I just love good music....and bourbon....
Amen👍🏼🥃🪕🎻
@@connorwilson4799 I'd add Billy Strings to the list
These guys entertain me more than any whiskey podcast ..FULL STOP!….thank you….
Double oaked finish might be my new favorite style - really looking forward to this.
The uncut videos are THE BEST
Definitely do not apologize for your video length/time. Also I’m a new subscriber but a long time Bourbon enthusiast. I’m pleasantly surprised to recently find a TH-cam channel that aligns with my interest in great American Bourbons. Thanks for your input. I love the backdrop and would love to hear what bottles are behind you guys.
Sagamore DO was described at the distillery as "a bourbon drinker's rye." I concur. Both me and my partner picked up a bottle. Damn fine juice!
Yup, and then I picked up extras!
I’m interested to see how the ceiling cam works. For me, adding the bottle images helped to follow this immensely. I’m not surprised on peerless. Very tannic, especially on the finish
Y’all don’t worry about video length. Go with the flow! Love content fellas…keep it up
Never apologize, love the longer videos!
It is so much fun to watch y'all. 😍
20:06 Y'all take however much time y'all need. If I wanted videos that rush to the end in just a couple of minutes I wouldn't be here. 🙂
28:07 I would've thought that uncontacted Indians in the Amazon jungle would know who Willie Nelson. There are people who've never listened to country music in their lives who know Willie Nelson. Next Trenton'll tell us he's never heard of Hank Williams. 😱
I for one love the longer videos!!!!
Have loved watching these vids since I discovered them over a year ago
The Sagamore Double Oak Rye is my house rye, used for all my rye-based cocktails. Love it!
WILLIE NELSON is LEGENDARY!!!! What is happening here!!! Trenton stop smelling your shoes on camera!
Not normally a rye guy. Watched this episode last night and coincidentally stumbled across a bottle of the Sagamore Spirits Rye Double Oaked today. It is fantastic! Probably would’ve never bothered with it otherwise so thank you for content that helps me broaden my horizons. 🥃
That double oaked rye from Sagamore is fantastic, my second rye after OF100 and it's much better as a neat pour.
The Peerless is the only one of the flight I’ve had and I thought it was fantastic. Very rich and flavorful, if that finished last then I need to have the others
Love the vids regardless of length, so long as it's you guys just being yourselves and going over the pours, that's what we're here for!
I did a tasting at Peerless distillery earlier this week and really liked the double oaked. I ended buying a single barrel bottle from them that was just awesome. All their stuff is higher proof and very small production. I highly recommend giving them a try.
For the first time a favorite of mine comes in last...I really enjoy the Peerless DO
I absolutely love Peerless DO and Toasted. They need to try a different bottle.
Same here...either their palates were off or they got a bad batch
I'm with you on this Peerless DO bourbon win my last double oak blind with 6x different DO.
Peerless DO is amazing
I have determined that my tastebuds align much more with Kurt than with Trent, I usually go out and buy what Kurt likes and that works well for me. I love this channel!!!
Trenton you are NOT living. No shake. No shake. Whatttt!!

Thanks for doing this on every video... first thing I do is search for it and read through your segment descriptors.
Super happy with this video. I love double oaked products, but I know of so few of them. Hoping to hunt down some more :) The Peerless Double Oaked is, in my opinion, very good, but $20 too expensive. It has some great tasting notes, but it just doesn't have the push I want out of a $100+ bottle. Peerless do have a double oaked rye that is fantastic. Highly recommend if you can find (and afford) it.
Long or short videos don't matter to me. I love seeing you both having fun doing what you do
Of course the Sagamore came in first. That bottle is spectacular
Love this video and the length ! You guys brighten my day and I look forward to each of your videos!
Trent, my son is 21, he knows Willie Nelson.
"Blue eyes crying in the rain" is a good start.
Love the longer vids
I was at a bottle share a little while ago and had Peerless DO for the first time. Back then I said it wasn't as good as the Woodford DO, especially at nearly double the price. So this doesn't surprise me much. I am pleasantly surprised at the Sagamore taking first!
I’m on the same page as the two of you for the most part with 2XO. I’ve tried three or four of them and have not been that impressed, with the exception of the innkeepers blend. Really love that one…enough to buy a back up. Not surprised you guys liked it today.
I get Peerless 2oak for $92 in Charleston SC. It’s wonderful, I think your taste buds are off today. The Sagamore is great though.
my dad used to work for bucyrus-erie. He'd bring home excavator promotional catalogues. Loved looking at those as a kid.
The peerless really surprised me. Been to the distillery they make a high quality product.
The fiddler toasted is my favorite bottle right now.
20-30 or so minutes is usually perfect for me. If you go longer or shorter by 5-10 minutes I will never mind and will watch it all regardless. Loving the new graphics too - double oaked bourbons are the bomb.
I toured the Sagamore Distillery for my last birthday, where I tried the Double Oaked for the first time and immediately fell in love with it. I'll echo the thought that it gets better as it sits, the nose too. Already on my 2nd bottle since January, hope it does well on Friday.
only time i stop having fun is when yalls videos end!
Trent wearing Apollo's shirt from training Rocky on the beach? AND he got one for Kurt too?!? HELL YEAH, LET'S GO!
Don't worry about the length of the video, we'll always watch to the end. The videos are definitely worth it, I'll be picking up the Sagamore soon. But, I thought Kurt said there wouldn't be ads during your videos? I had to skip through multiple...
Kurt, I knew you were a Southern gentleman at heart despite not having the accent. Your appreciation for Willie simply confirmed it. Have y'all considered doing a round up of Tennessee whiskeys, meaning actual Lincoln process whiskeys, not necessarily bourbons made in Tennessee? Keep up the great content!
2XO has become my favorite as of late. The American Oak tastes so much better a few months after I opened that bottle.
We need a blind tasting of the Sagamore vs. Fox & Oden.
My twin brother and I used to have crabapple fights with the big green ones! Now we throw each other bottles. It's a little bit safer🤣🤣
While at Cedar Ridge, be sure to sample their Double Barrel bourbon and their Bottled-in-Bond Rye.
Never had peerless before, went to the distillery earlier this month and was surprised by everything I had. Picked up the double oak rye and it what’s phenomenal!
I have only had Woodford DO and OF 1910 and like both.
I enjoy the longer videos! I say we should do pickle juice infused whiskey!!
The length isn't an issue because these are always lunch break videos for me 😉 I wish I could say I'm disappointed by my local distillery's product going out early, but ASW's toasted is not on my list of favorites either. Sagamore DO is a staple for me, I love their stuff and the DO in particular. If you ever run across a store pick from them and you like ryes, buy it.
I like the longer videos 👍🏻
The fact that Trenton even knows what Auto Zone is, is frankly amazing...
Ok since you keep talking about the length, in some situations I really prefer the long videos. Sometimes im at work with my Bluetooth in my ear listening to y’all and long videos help. Other times i might be sitting at my home bar wondering about what i want to pour when i see your videos. Sometimes i can pour what you pour, but most times not. All times are fun. You do you. Dont let anybody tell you how to freedom.
It's Wednesday night and Willie Nelson and Snoop Dog are on TV doing a song together... Roll Me Up and Smoke Me When I Die... lol
Nice blind! I’m 63 next month and I used to get chocolate shakes with double malt many years ago:)
Sagamore double oak is really nice! I also really enjoy my Art of the Spirit double oak! I haven’t had a Peerless that I’ve liked yet:(
Cheers!
Sagamore Rye DO is SO GOOD... I'm not surprised it came in first. I have been a fan of all the 2XO releases, and happy to see it in this line-up. I have been hunting for the ASW Fiddler Toasted for a while - ever since I had their Georgia Heartwood, and still haven't had any luck. Peerless DO just doesn't have the distribution to make it out to California, but I have been hoping against hope to come across one.
I really like the 2XO Innkeepers and Tribute blends. These seem to sit on shelves but they are great.
lol I used to drink dill pickle juice out of the jar when I was a kid. Drove my mother crazy. Fast forward - now it's the rage of athletes...go figure.
What batch was the Peerless DO? Maybe Cory can add batch/year info on the bottle pics he posts?
i would like to see it all. i dont like stuff cut out. it feels more natural.
So on your live stream for tomorrow the image is the top 6 bottles, so why would I watch tomorrows picks if I know who won it. Food for thought. I do love you guys.
Fellas, you need to try Oak and Eden bourbon. Holi moli! It's my second fave next to Woodford Double Oaked.
Yeah ya'll need to listen to the smart one in the room and put first place on the other end :)
I definitely agree the Peerless DO is overhyped. Got my bottle and given it a bunch of chances, but beyond a kind of muted interesting dark chocolate and way over oakedness I don't get much. That Sagamore DO though....! So good. Gotta try the 2XO still.... Great video guys. Trenton, I challenge you to just use freaking culinary terms to describe smells and tastes. I'm still waiting for you to say something tastes like outer space at some point lol.
I was just at Peerless for a tasting, and their standard bourbon beat out the double oak. Last time it was the opposite. Every batch is different.
The Sagamore Double Oak was an absolute banger for me. Loved it from beginning to end. The Peerless.......I am currently trying to love....but shes making it tough! And the 2XO I haven't opened yet. I'm more happy sipping on double oak offerings these days than a "finished" product. Cheers and great review!
Ngl that’s the first time I ever heard someone talk about a shake’s texture lol
Sagamore always delivers. All of their products just deliver.
I recently picked up the Peerless and was not a fan at all especially for the price. Give me Woodford everyday all day.
Wait, did i hear them say pickle blind? That would be a fun video. There are so many pickles. It could be an actual blind by blindfolding them!
Willie is a gawd damned national treasure.
3 different times have had batches of Peerless DO. Everytime have found something harsh about the finish
OMG! My dad always got Chocolate Malts too!!! Yay dad! Im a chocolate ice cream soda person.
That Fiddler toasted is one of my favorites, the ones I have are a pick...
Trenton - I will totally set up a line work session when you have an opening 😎
Great episode. Total fail on Peerless. You have to sneak into Friday’s blind!!!!
My wife and I finished our bottle of Sagamore DO faster than any bottle we've ever bought. Such a great bottle.
The only frustrating thing is the left to right and right to left. For the longest time, first was on our left, and then somewhere, it keeps changing.
Whiskey Thief double oak Rye is some of the best around. Hands down
As much as I want other people to appreciate Sagamore DO, its already not easy to find in my area and really dont want it to go from difficult to impossible. Its probably my favorite bottle of whiskey. Can't find Peerless DO anywhere in my area, their SB is pretty good but still hard to find around here.
Last month I was able to pick up the Peerless from the distillery after our tour. I think it is really good. It’s a little pricey $134, but I’m glad I picked it up.
Wow it’s much cheaper in TX
We visited Peerless a few weeks ago and noticed that all their juice is priced higher at the distillery than surrounding liquor stores. I picked up the DO in Elizabethtown for just under $100. Some of their single barrels at the tasting were AMAZING, but I wasn't ready to drop $140 after already getting a bottle of the DO for much less.
I've been in a few rock fights. Sagamore Double Oak curb stomping!
Trent said it, that 2XO opened up, and thats exactly what it needs, some time and some air. I want to love Peerless, can they get some more age on things to justify the price please?
What batch was the Peerless Double Oaked?
I'm wondering this as well...I have batch 10 and 13 and both are great
There is a difference between a CHARRED double oak (2 different barrels) and a TOASTED oak barrels, Where a char is a 40 to 60 second burn of the interior of a barrel, a toast is, well, a toast. The barrels are subjected to less extreme temperatures for longer durations than a barrel char.
I'm curious. What camera and mic option do you guys use? I love the quality.
Cedar ridge is one of my absolute favorites right now
Glad to see Sagamore DO win, I get a nice cola, orange, and barrel vibe from it. Never cared for Peerless DO, overpriced and way too coffee/bitter forward
23:28 Trenton gathering notes for future videos
I like Woodford double and OF 1910. But I like the Sagamore DO rye even more!
