    You said king of Kentucky but what is the name of the other bourbon? You never said the name.

    the best daily drinker is Old Forrester 1920 its also the bottle that impresses my guest the most!!!

  • @EEESRAINMAN
    @EEESRAINMAN 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    My list
    Daily - Makers Mark
    Mixer - Jack Daniel's (I know it's a Tennessee whiskey, but it meets all requirements to be called Bourbon, so deal with it)
    Friday night - Four Roses small batch select
    Impress - Blanton's
    Special occasion - George T Stagg

    I don't have or care to impress anyone, I just drink what I like.
    Buffalo Trace would be my daily if it wasn't so hard to find so I'll have it once in awhile. Knob Creek would be my daily right now. I also like The Duke, and never pass up on Stranahan's even though it's not considered Bourbon.

    I think that the EW BiB tastes great neat. For slightly under $20 a fifth it's a steal.

  • @StillLivinginthewoods
    @StillLivinginthewoods 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    My guests are usually much more casual whiskey drinkers than I am.
    I keep cheaper lower proof stuff like TX Blended and Jim Beam Extra Aged on the shelf for them,.. and nine times out of ten they actually prefer that stuff over whatever I am drinking, because they are not used to the higher proofs.

    • @bourbonkingdom

    Daily: Buffalo Trace / Old Elk
    Mixer : Woodford Reserve for my old fashions
    Impress: Jefferson Ocean
    Friday night: Woodford double oak
    Special: it's a single malt Stranahanns Cab Calloway. 117.5 proof. Only available at a cask thief. hard to find and refuse to open it unless for a real special occasion

  • @aklasishman3855
    @aklasishman3855 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Love your channel! Great recommendations! I’d do the WT 101 for a mixer because it brings more of a peppery balance than the EW

  • @MrThailand08
    @MrThailand08 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Decent picks. Benchmark works as a mixer. Do not sleep on EW BIB. Fantastic anyway you want. Best idea is to keep your Woodford bottle when you are done and fill it with EW BIB. All them bourbon newbies will come over and frontrun on the Woodford and never know the difference. They will think you are solid and bring wings, pizza and sushi every time they come over. Under the radar daily drinker? OGD114 and WT 101

  • @ventures1
    @ventures1 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    A question for you seasoned drinkers out there, as I am a newb to this arena.
    Am I wrong to keep my Bourbon/Whisky (everyday drink) in the freezer? Am I Stifling the full taste in any way?

    • @bourbonkingdom
      @bourbonkingdom  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      So I have never had any experience with putting whiskey in a freeze but technically you shouldn't. Putting whiskey in the freezer can cause it to lose flavor over time. Might be better off putting a glen in the freezer or using ice instead.

  • @patrickq7489
    @patrickq7489 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I've had both of those Evan Williams but I still prefer EW 1783...especially the new version at 90 proof.

    • @bourbonkingdom
      @bourbonkingdom  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Agree that ECBP is another great choice and yes is easier to grab that bottle then the other two. But my guy you got to crack open that RR13 is it literally one of the best bottles we have had all year(in our opinion).

    • @deepee1452
      @deepee1452 2 ปีที่แล้ว

  • @tnreloader8236
    @tnreloader8236 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I have been a Jack Daniels drinker my whole life. Single barrel select and barrel proof are my day to day neat drinks. gentleman jack and white rabbit saloon are my two mixers. I want to expand and I'm thinking a Wild turkey rare breed along with a Old forester 1920 for starters. Please if you have any suggestions of bottles in the 50 to 100 dollar range please comment.

    • @bourbonkingdom
      @bourbonkingdom  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      So first off I would highly recommend Rare Breed and 1920 all day. And we will sooner rather then later have a new video or two talking about some great bottles around that price.

    I agree with the Evan Williams bottles. It's just daggone good. I have two bottles of Stagg Jr #15 and that is awesome. The higher allocated bottles don't need to be in my house unless for some reason I get a GIFT!!! Ahahahahaha Nice video.

    Not impressed with Reddit or any other site that says this is all you need. Make your own choices per your taste buds and enjoy. Enjoy the trip getting to the most likeable whiskeys of your choice and who cares who does or doesn't like them. You know you will.
