Sorry but a 5 year finished in wine barrels…for over $100. What a joke. People finish young whiskey in wine because their whiskey isn’t good. I bet that bottle is pure crap but they are trying to capitalize quickly to pay PE funders
Finished whiskey isnt for everyone. I like and dislike certain finishes
I enjoy checking out what grocery stores have. Pretty good selection of special bottles for how small their section is!
Its crazy how they can have hidden gems
Agreed !
If you ever want a Ben Holladay Rick house (soft red wheat or bourbon) cross over into Missouri. You can find them almost anywhere for $75 or less.
Good to know! Thank you for watching!
That Ben Holladay is legit
Iowa is probably second to only Utah when it comes to disappoing whiskey availability
These are all my favorite stops as a local in Cedar Rapids. Thanks for spilling the beans 😂
Oh shoot im sorry! 😨 Everybody I met was really nice tho! Thank you for watching and sharing! 🥃
Cedar Ridge getting good reviews. I picked up the Barrel Proof for $35 on sale. Saw a Single Barrel that I am going to pick up. Love JM Cigar Blend. Have bottle killed batches 93 and 141. Currently have batch 181 open and backup batches 189 and 267. Just picked up the JM Murray Hill Club Special Reserve Batch 4. So good. 🥃
Bourbon 51% Corn 49% Marketing
Thanks for the visit!
Thank you! Hope you enjoyed
Should have got the cedar ridge..its on my list to get
I have plentyyyyyy of Cedar Ridge on the way
Should have snagged that Cigar Cut of the Jmag.
I'm in Iowa and generally find a better selection across the river in Illinois. Fareway is hit or miss but as you found out some HyVees can be pretty good. Benz is OK and people there are nice.
I didnt have a driver so sadly I couldn’t explore too much
Man, I hoped you checked out a few more places. These are some decent spots in cedar rapids but most of those bottles at those 3 spots get held for raffles or bars. There are a few other honey holes you missed where you can see some harder to find bottles and decent prices.
Great video! I would have had a hard time passing on a few of those bottles! Some great finds! Never had Cedar Ridge…. Going to have to do something about that…. 😂
🥃 Hunter!
I think the Panda has spoken!
I just scored today. I was able to get a Blanton’s Straight from the Barrel and an EH Taylor Barrel Proof for $275.
Out here in CA, all grocery stores carry liquor. Raley’s, depending on the location, has the best stuff
Thats wild to me
Can’t even buy sodas or tonic water in S.C. liquor stores only spirits and wine
ayy Nob Hill/Raleys is my go to, always hit em up when they do closeouts at the end of the quarter. Snagged some Garrison Bro Black label for 39.99 and grabbed 3 bottles of Barrell Seagrass for 39.99 as well.
The Luca is wilderness trail juice. Cask strength is really good
Is it really?? Thats pretty cool. Thank you for sharing and watching!
if you're ever in Chicago, we have one of those grocery store whiskey sections in a local meat market. you can get great whiskey and great sausages at the same time
Whats the name and location! I am interested!
Cedar ridge cask strength is great. Shoulda grabbed it
Oh haha I got plenty on its way 😁
Love the laughing horse. I wish I could find an Obtainium. 🥃😎🇺🇸
Im upset at myself for passing on it
I’m in the Cedar Rapids area and Benz is the place to go to find great stuff. I also go to Westside once in a while. They also have some good stuff. The Fairway you went to is ok, but mostly when they do a raffle.
When you are in Iowa you really need to check out Marshall B.W.S. in Marshalltown, a small town but a great store.
I asked the Discord about it but that was not a recommendation! Maybe next year!
@@Bourbon_Hunter Marshall BWS is definetly a great spot and a great experience. 100% a place to check out. It is about 1.5 hours away from CR though. Still worth the stop though. There are also a few more awesome places around Cedar Rapids but you gotta know where to go.
I can't believe you passed on the slipknot No9 you're really missing out
You know anything with Cody in the title is smooooth as hell.
My man Cody always been smooth. Since day 1. Appreciate you bro!
In Iowa u can be in a store that sells liquor and guns
Are you freaking kidding me😂
It's the USA, of course you would be able to do that lol 😂
I'm about 80 miles front Benz. Will have to pop in.
Cool little spot for sure! A few spots in Cedar Rapids that are worth looking into!
Im addicted, legit Carl bot said hey Hunter uploaded a vid and here I am less then a min later. Also congrats on another barrel pick. So this is officially “yours?” Not just one that you partnered with?
Its my first official single barrel 👉🏼👈🏼
@@Bourbon_Hunter good for you sir! Can’t wait to read the details on the Cedar Ridge pick!
@@Bourbon_Hunterhow were you able to do a barrel pick? I thought you had to have a retail license in order to do barrel picks? Basically only stores and bars/restaurants. I know some youtubers get to do picks, but assumed they had retail licenses. Or have a distributor go with you that gave you their right to a pick
I thankfully have an online retailer that is willing to work with me on this process.
If you are feeling adventurous. starks sport shop in Prairie du chien Wisconsin. 1 stop shop. liquor, craft beer guns, ammo. pretty nice selection of whiskey. ask for Alex
Pew pews and liquor!!! Thats my kinda store!
@@Bourbon_Hunter Another great store. They do a bourbon event in December with tons of bottles. One to keep on the radar and the bottles are at or below MSRP during this event.
This is my hometown. You also should have gone to tiffin,and iowa city,marion areas. Bout 20min drive from where you were.
I didn’t have the time! I had to uber everywhere so it was as much as I could do!
@Bourbon_Hunter o fair enough! For the same price as all those ubers you could have rented a car on turo and had it dropped off at the hotel by the airport. I've had to do that a few times locally
@@Bourbon_Hunter I woulda played taxi had I ran into ya tho. There was a brewery worth checking out down the st from Benz that makes some dam good beer as well.
@@Bourbon_Hunter you need to get a local escort. If your ever back in CR, I offer my services and my bar for some pregaming XD
Pre-boom many people considered ETL bottom shelf filler. It’s still nothing special - just a fomo bottle
Yeah ive had it. I’d never pay over $100 for it
This guy knows his shit 🤝
Learn something new everyday
I live in Texas and the cheapest I’ve seen Balmorhea was $155 and it was on sale. At $119 I would have bought a case
Yeah I wish I knew the MSRP when I was there! Thank you for watching!
I hate how holladay uses twist tops at its price point
Its kinda crazy honestly I agree
@@Bourbon_Hunter good product. I just hate opening it.
Btw I think that Balmorhea was just in the wrong spot behind it was single barrels and $120 is top $ for single barrel.
Upon further review I believe you were right
Only thing stopping me from buying Balmorhea is that 200+ price tag. But for 119$, I couldn’t pass that up.
Yeah If I knew at the time it woulda been in the luggage on the way home

How much was that EC Toasted Barrel on Sale @ the grocery store ?
EC Toasted all around Cedar Rapids is generally about 60. When it is on sale it goes around 50. I have seen it at 45 though but that was a crazy sale.
Let’s goooooo
LFGGGGGG
Rittenhouse is a tasty pour that would have been a nice pick... The yellow wax screamed tater bait to me initially but good to hear it may be a good blend ! great work on this episode !
Cheers PJ 🍻
PJ! Thank you for joining the Patreon mate! Cheers from the USA!
I appreciate the bourbon by the lawyer with the yellow wax. He knows Markers owns the dripping wax trademark but wont bother to sue him if the dripping wax isn’t touching the bottle neck. Classic.
Thats so funny! Do you think their trademark goes that far into detail?
Their trade mark only has to do with red wax as far as I’m aware
@@Bourbon_Hunter It refers to the use of "artistic wax tendrels" which those are, but maybe not touching the bottle.
Have you tried Cedar Ridge?
When are you coming to Tampa to hunt?
Soon to FL not sure quite when! But soon!
obtanium is crazyyyy
Crazyyyy good? Or Crazyyyy bad?
@@Bourbon_Hunter for me personally, it's crazy good. I have two bottles of the light whiskey, 13 years 137.4 proof and 14 years 140.2 proof and love both. Just missed getting the 26 year blend that you saw but have heard great things about that too.
so the 44 year old Canadian club is terrible?
Yes sirrrr
😎🥃
Westside had Ollie the dog when I was there
What’s Ollie the Dog?
@@Bourbon_Hunter an actual dog named Ollie. He is friendly and awesome.
O no what did you leave on the shelf this time lol
You 🥵
Zoinkies the reply

If you aint first your last carl
Just buy the bottles and ship them back home lol
bUt tHaT IilEgAl 😂
Poison The Well?????
Hahaha!!! Someone saw it! I was wondering how long it would take
You were down in IA and didn't hit me up?!?!
And I'm local. I grew up 3 miles from Benz hahaha. Currently live in Des Moines. Family all still lives there. I'm sure you saw the Nassif name around
I didn’t know!!! Im sorry 😨
@@Bourbon_Hunter next time you're up, you can tour or just hang out. I've got a few whiskies around my house too in Des Moines
Say it with me: BALL MORE RAY
How tall are you? I feel like you played d3 volleyball.
D3 Cricket actually
Come on im from WI and Driftless Glenn is not great bourbon.
You ever try the stripped pig
Yeah its not for me sadly
@@Bourbon_Hunter I have a barrel pick 7 year
Don't know how good Rittenhouse is, but the fact they slagged on Kyle when he was attacked is good enough reason for me not to buy it. In fact, Heaven Hill being as woke as they are as a company tends to keep me from giving them any of my money. for any of their products.
In my opinion, Rittenhouse ryes are some of the best budget ryes out there. Especially if you can find a good store pick
This was one of only 2 private barrels the State of Iowa got this year.
😫😭😫😭😫😭 wahhhhhh scary skateboard man
Thanks for letting me know where their politics stand. I won't buy from them either now :)
@@derpnowitzki1766one of them had a freaking gun lol
