    Love you guys. You’re the first whiskey channel I’ve seen that doesn’t use those sissy glen cairn glasses and sniff and describe it with seventeen adjectives before they even taste it. Down to earth regular guys is what impresses me.

      Hell yeah!! That is exactly what Talking Whiskey is all about! Hell yeah!!! Excellent comment!
      We wanted to do a show that says “ anyone can enjoy whiskey. “
      Over the years of filming TW we filmed with Brew Master, Master Mixologist, Master Distillers, Liquor store owners, Distillery Owners and even a Keeper of the Quaich. All of those amazing experts are able to tell you if the whiskey was made properly but none of them can tell you if the whiskey is good or not. Whiskey is art for the tongue and the only opinion that matters is your own. That’s what Talking Whiskey was all about. Thank you so much for understanding that. You made my day.
      P.S. we love you too.

    I got a bottle of eagle rare as a gift, I love it! I'm stingy with it tho, I only break it out with other people that appreciate good bourbon & a cigar.

    • @talkingwhiskey1507
      @talkingwhiskey1507  4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I enjoy impressing them with a quality bourbon.

    My wife and I toured Buffalo Trace last year and fell in love with the place. It’s a must do if you hit the Ky Bourbon Trail. That’s where we bought our first bottle of Eagle Rare 10 year. Absolutely love it!!! Thanks for the review guys!!! Cheers 🥃

    @alxbrooks 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Completely agree. I do like the Four Roses small batch, but eagle rare has more action. I think the FR small batch is good to keep around for guests that are new to whiskey or if you’re looking for something a little bit lighter, and I think it has some potential as a mixer.

    • @talkingwhiskey1507
      @talkingwhiskey1507  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Well put. I have found that you pay more for more complexity. So to have a bourbon that has a great flavors and is in the $25-$35 dollar range is a welcome treat. Thank you very much for watching and leaving a comment.

  • @mikem4432

    Update 2021 Eagle Rare is rare at MSRP is 33$ but good luck finding it(at any price). on the other hand, you can get 4-Roses anywhere anytime.. simple choice.. 4-Roses anytime.

    • @talkingwhiskey1507
      @talkingwhiskey1507  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Excellent point and very true. When you can find Eagle rare I suggest buying multiple bottles. Four Roses is a great bourbon. Thank you very much for watching and leaving a comment.

  • @drewnapoleons4569
    @drewnapoleons4569 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Yea I always tell people the best starter bourbons are
    1. Buffalo trace
    2. Four roses small batch
    3. Elijah Craig small batch
    4. Woodford
    5. Maker’s
    Then the next step up is
    1.four roses single barrel
    2. Eagle rare
    3. Angels envy
    4. Maker’s 46
    5. McKenna bottled in bond

    • @talkingwhiskey1507
      @talkingwhiskey1507  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      That is what we wanted the show to say. No one can tell you if the whiskey is good. They can only tell their opinion. I’ve tried to like Scotch but I just can’t. I’m not sure if I’ve had McKenna yet.

    My shelf agrees with your conclusion I have 3 unopened and 2 opened bottles of Eagle Rare and only 1 half full bottle of Four Roses SB. One exception is when I am manning the smoker or BBQ pit on a hot day, the FRSB just goes oh so well right then!

    • @talkingwhiskey1507

    Just bought my first bottle of Eagle Rare ($49.99 here, ouch). Really looking forward to trying it. Have a bottle of the Four Roses now, price was much closer to the video price, but I just don't like it very much. I'm a newbie and can't really describe all the scents and flavors, but I can tell that different whiskeys taste different (some genius level insight there huh?). Was disappointed with the Four Roses after I'd read/seen/heard so many good things about it.

    • @talkingwhiskey1507
      @talkingwhiskey1507  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I expected more from the Four Roses myself. That Eagle Rare is amazing for the price! If you are new to whiskey and you are wanting to learn to enjoy the nuances of the flavors stay away from ones that are Barrel Proof or proofed over 110. Save those for later. Also watch our episodes with the guys from Chattanooga Whiskey and the one with the JE Kelly guys. Those guys know their stuff. Thank you very much for your support and your time is appreciated.

      Single barrel comes from just one barrel. If you opened a whiskey barrel at a rick house stuck your head in the mouth full you got would be single barrel. Small batch would be from a smaller number of very similar barrels mixed together and then bottled.

      Single barrel dose taste different from barrel to barrel. That’s the great thing about whiskey. Where you place the barrel how you rotate the barrel in the wear house. What the weather did while the whiskey was in the barrel. The quality of the barrel how long the whiskey was in the barrel. How much air got in the barrel....what are we talking about? Oh yeah. So many factors go in to the taste out of a single barrel. So when you get a single barrel ,especially from a smaller distillery, the taste can be noticeably different from barrel to barrel.

      Eagle rare is the same distillery as Buffalo trace by the way, and a pretty obvious step up if you have developed your palate at all. Four roses is good for the price, about the same price as Buffalo trace and so far id say a tiny bit worse but maybe ill warm up to it as I work through the bottle.
      Both four roses and Buffalo trace have thinner bodies and a more dry spicy woody character that overwhelms the other flavors that so far i would say I don't see in bourbons at higher price points. To each his own, but I would say eagle rare is almost objectively worth the like 20 bucks more than both 4 roses and BT.

    • @talkingwhiskey1507
      @talkingwhiskey1507  4 ปีที่แล้ว
