Mmm love Carlyle. It's such a perfect Holiday scotch with tons of baking spices, and an apple pie to me. Haven't done the 12 yet, but the base is great. Hmm...I never got sour on these bottles at all.
Great question. With 3 upvotes so far, this question is demanding an answer. Or better yet, an episode discussing climate vs barrel size vs using more/less head/tail cuts vs length of time in barrel vs other techniques to either overcome the "cons" of Texas aging vs the "pros." Maybe purely as a matter of cost and business cash flow, keeping whisky in a Texas barrel for a shorter length of time is better.
I picked up two bottles of this for $11.99 each at a local Total Wine. I am not a fan of peat flavors and this had none that i could fine.. I find this slightly sweet, some spice, oak, hints of vanilla, but all very low key. A smooth drink worth the price point.
Didn't know George Remus was an MGP house release. I'm 2/3 though a bottle and it's quite good (with a kick). Overripe banana, caramel, and light brown sugar
I ALMOST picked that bottle up today at Sam’s ($20)…but they had their own bottling from Bardstown that beat them out ($18). Definitely going to get G.Remus on the next trip…thanks for the info!
What would be nice for the viewers if you guys put the tasting notes in the description because some times you guys rush through them or don't really go into what you're tasting. Suddenly boom the video is over and it can be missed from time to time. Great video as always.
So, basically, you're talking about your own recordings from a few weeks back that had a snap crackle pop the entire way through the audio for the week?

omg - the mechanic dude from Wings is awesome. I remember liking him and that show. What's the wine channel he does? . btw - I am proposing a topic for an ongoing series of videos that can or should be done with another friendly distiller in a different climate. The goal is for the same new make from one run from one distillery to be shipped to two different climates. Exact same new make. One big container, then divide it in half into 2 containers and ship one to Texas and the other somewhere else. Try to eliminate other external factors besides temperature. Such as sending it out to sea on a long voyage (isn't that a thing?). Or one location being coastal and one not. The goal would be for each "age-er" to try to create the same end result, same flavor profile. Essentially one has to do tricks that the other doesn't in order to overcome the difference in age that will result from the difference in climate. Barrels have to be the same wood, same char level, but can be different sizes. OK so maybe one might have to let the other get more tails or less tails (to go along with what Dan was saying), so how about one or two more extra barrels as "controls." but definitely same mash bill from the same grains and same farms. Everything that can affect the flavor and nose must be as absolutely the same as possible. The only thing different would be where on earth was it aged and for how long. Or some variation of the above . Or not. Have one of those hobbyist weather gizmos that can track historical weather data, porting live data to a website, and archiving past data for analysis. ok bye.
What would happen if you aged a distilled spirit in a non-wood container for several ;years in Texas and then put it in an Oak barrel? Does age alone change things, or is it all wood impact.
Aging is not just about time. It's also about the liquid interacting with the container. If the container is steel or glass or some other similar material, time won't change anything.

Hey Daniel, don't knock Rex's tan leather dad jacket, Mr. "Episode 51 leather dad jacket." Just to twist the knife a bit, my grandfather had one damn near identical it back in the late 70's/early 80's! But, to be perfectly honest...when I saw the jacket I first thought of Grampa and then thought "wow, that's actually...I mean...kinda somewhat cool."
Snagged this for a few hot drinks for Christmas and HATED the neck pour…then went back to it and also (like Rex and the Hobbit) found it dramatically improved. Wouldn’t consider it a sipper, but a great soft, raisiny Scotch for a mixed drink.

Blended whisky huh? Did you guys ever get the green label Sheep Dip? It's supposed to be all Islay malts. Y'all were all about the standard Sheep Dip but have NEVER even mentioned the Sheep Dip Islay. Peat heads? Hmmm. I know you have a bottle in there somewhere. Now go grab that bottle, the camera, and a glass for Rex.
"This is Schappert." "Damn it!" lol too funny. Mr Schappert is the gift that keeps on giving.

Good morning gentlemen!
Good Morning MB's.... Woot a review... hope they like it :)
So, now i get to open it and try... Lets give it 3 Irritated Grundles out of 10 Tiny Weenus's. Thank you for the review
A great MGP rye is Roseville Union. They make a BiB, 47% and cask strength. Fantastic stuff. And it’s an MGP label.
Good morning - all most afternoon (EST) MB's.
Rex: *shakes bottle*
Also Rex: "Where are the bubbles coming from?"
🤭
It's like the sleeping dog that farts, then wakes up wondering where the sound came from.
@@TheBradWhittington hehe 🤣
And at 8:47 we see the professional level of Rex mooching as he wears his pilfered splash home for later!
I recorded both the Trout Fishing guys on separate projects. Both a pleasure to work with.
GOOD MORNING YOU MB'S.... 🥃
oh man... whisk(e)y again?
Fun times
If Texas distilling requires a shorter time in the barrel. Could the whiskey be moved into a "new" barrel to lengthen the process?

Trout Fishing in America has one of the world's greatest kid's albums.

Most likely, the band's name is a reference to a Richard Brautigan novella published in 1967 also called Trout Fishing in America.
I mix Carlyle with Glenmorangie 10. It works well.
After watching this video I just had to look up the band Trout Fishing in America, Thanks Daniel Proper Cup of Coffee is my new theme song.
Yeah you can tune out some distracting noises, except for Daniels ingK's, those will always live rent free in our ears
They said $20 a bottle? It's $20 for a 1.75L bottle at Total Wine here in California.

Thanks for the review 🥃
Given the comments about its youth it would be interesting to compare it with the 12 year old version at $27.
Thank you very much for the MS warning
Isn't Redemption bourbon also MGP ?
It is indeed.

So, how tall are Rex and Dan?
One leg is shorter than the other that isn't.
Youngk.

@@TheBradWhittington Probably why once bottled, the whiskey doesn't change. Thanks Brad.
Smoke Wagon is another really good MGP bourbon.
Eight and Sand is a good mid-priced MGP release.

Blood and Sand - MGP release
In a blend with 20 distilleries I am not sure you can pick up cuts in a whisky. Unless you're solely referencing just youngness.
It’s the youth. Age will definitely smooth out the stuff that wasn’t cut in distillation
"Damm it" lol
Just tried Monkey Shoulder for the first time this week. Bottle gone already.
I was most improved in school. That hurts my feelings.
Tastes like Dewars 12.
Snagged this for a few hot drinks for Christmas and HATED the neck pour…then went back to it and also (like Rex and the Hobbit) found it dramatically improved.
Wouldn’t consider it a sipper, but a great soft, raisiny Scotch for a mixed drink.
I recommend delicious 🎉

LOL. NECK POUR!!!!
Astringent is how I'd describe the tartness in pear, as pretentious as that sounds 😂
LOL threatening to be pleasant.
You know your an alcoholic when….
A whiskey starts out smelling like crap, 2 mins later, hey this ain’t bad. Lol
Carlyle NAS is not 95% grain; not even close.
