Just saw a Remus Gatsby the other day… just sayin’… it’s out of my price range. 😊 Great list! I found a JD10 in 2023 and dang is it good. The JD12 is in my list for this year!
Awesome list. I got the JD 10 as I did last year, but the 12, they wanted waaaay too much for it and I refuse to spend astronomical amounts anymore for even the best of whiskies. I’m ready for the hipsters to start liking kool-aid with rum in it or something because prices are getting ridiculous. I’m damn near 50 and to get a great bottle, I have to cut my arm off. Not happening.
Lost Lantern Far Flung Bourbon and River Roots 6 year Port Finish Bourbon were the 2 best whiskies that anyone (was available for a while with shipping from Seelbachs) could of gotten their hands on but didn't. The Lost Lantern is a blend of Frey Ranch(5yr), Watershed(7yr), Boulder(6yr) and Still Austin(3yr). LL FFB had the taste of chocolate and vanilla coke for me. The River Roots is from an unspecified Kentucky distillery. The RR was a freight train of flavor with oaky chocolate and grape Jam flavors.
That JD SB BP rye is phenomenal! I was able to find two bottles. 1 in Dallas and 1 in Richmond, Va. I live a half hr from the distillery and none of the JD products in your list are anywhere near here although I did see a 10 yr for $550. I passed. Love your videos!

I would like to see you do a separate craft list of your favorites. Seeing how craft whiskey is growing like crazy. Great list and yes JD is killing it. I heard that they are doing a 15 year this year.
Excellent list. I haven’t had every one of these but I have had the JD 12 Year-not that I could find a bottle on the shelf, but I’ve seen it at a couple of bars (not just fancy whiskey bars either) and have bought a couple of pours. It’s exceptional-definitely one of the best whiskeys I’ve ever had!
I was I was watching your channel about that Jack Daniels Pecan Finished. Definitely like a Pecan Pie in a glass but not too sweet. Had a friend pick me up a few on his trip to Tenn. Wish I was able to get my hands on one of those L7 15 year didn't run across one this year. Overall great list!
Love your videos Matt! Always keep it real, fun, but never real fun. Kidding! One of the handful of creators I watch pretty much every video in its entirety! Cheers to a great 2024 for you and can't wait to see how many Barrel King bottles end up being on the 2024 list (by merit!)
I was fortunate to find Jack 10yr and Jack 12yr at my local Walmart, so ended up with 3 of each. Not to mention the SBBP rye, which finally showed up at gas station mini-marts and Costco. I think you know how good the Jack SBBP tenn whiskey is, and it could have easily made the list too, depending on the barrel. My favorites of 2023 would include a bottle of Smoke Wagon Malted Rye, Stagg 22a (released in 23) and a ASW Fiddler Georgia Heartwood store pick. 2023 Thomas Handy is pretty fantastic too, glad I got 2 bottles :P
Loved your list! My additions would possibly be bottles you did not have an opportunity to purchase. My suprising finds include BTAC Eagle, Pappy 20, Four Roses LE 2023, and Birthday Bourbon. Love the Stagg a23 and the EH Taylor Cast Strength.
Great video, Matt. Great information You're the absolute best at conveying a huge amount of information in a video that doesn't last 25 minutes. Love it!
Fortunate to get a pour of the JD12 at Cox's in Louisville earlier this year. My sample size isn't as large as Porter's, but it was the best pour I had all year. Cheers!
I was dying for JD 10&12 but never got either. I could have got the twice barreled, but i tried it and wasnt a fan. Big fan of lucky 7, i have the holiday toast and the frenchman. Great bottles. The only proprietor i seen was a 6yr so i didnt get it.
Thanks for you content in 2023, it has been a great year watching your channel. Hope to see more of the JD speciality bottles nationwide and more available, you would think they have the stock for it,.
Loving that JD is crushing it. Hoping that their production capacity allows for the 10 & 12 year releases becoming more readily available. Also love almost all their experimental releases (the tequila one is kinda average).
Awesome to see I have a few of them ...lol.. Remus Gatsby, Russel's rickhouse cnf, JD 10 &12, barrel proof rye, michter's 10 rye, and stagg. They are all awesome!
Heck ya Matt, my JD barrel proof rye bottle was a top 3 of 2023 for me too! (Realizing they all will differ a little yes) Honorable mention to their BiB rye release as well. For the price point & availability it’s amazing!!
I love the Porter order! I hope to acquire some more of these bottles in the future. I have a couple, but on the lookout to try Lucky 7 with those higher age statements!
This is a very well-considered list. I agree that blinds should be a factor, but not the only factor in creating these lists. I loved JD12 this year. I still put RRSR CNF in front, but lots of good surprises this year. I am sad you did not run down a bottle of the RR13 batch 4, which I thought was really good. Batch 5… I had last night. And while it is my least favorite of the series, it’s still great! Russell’s killing it!
My Guy ! How did you not put your Blue Run Chosen pick in this !?!?!?! That was my absolute favorite from 2023 ! Soooooo Goooood ! I wish I had another one 1️⃣
Great video Matt! I got to try a lot of these, I personally was disappointed in Disco 10 but disco 11 is wild! Looking forward to getting myself a bottle of gatsby 23. Also what barrel was your M10?
By some strange freak of whiskey nature, I scored two bottles of JD12 last year and a bottle of JDSBBPR. I agree that both are fantastic. That said, I don’t have many of the rest of your list. 😢
Hopefully 13Th Century Rye Reserve makes you 2024 list Matt. Bottle shipped today! That is if you're channel will be around? I remember hearing your moving on to another venture soon.
I have 8 bottles from this list and their all from the top half of the list, that means ALOT of these bottles are obtainable for regular jabronies... PS - Wow, WTWT finally did his Top of '23 list, and we love him for that!
I hate to tell you this but to produce more 12-year-old whiskey you had to ramp up production 12 years ago!!! Great video . I agree with a lot of picks I was able to taste and 2023 which isn’t much but a lot of agree with yours.
Bardstown discovery 11 has to be on the list! There is a store right down the street from me that has them for 120! If you want one let me know and we can work something out
🤦🏾♂️COME ON MATT, you’re my favorite bourbon TH-cam channel, don’t subscribe to that lame ass script EVERY CHANNEL HAS “ I have have acquired a bottle of my own” BS…Great is Great. If you’ve tried it and it was great mention that shit bro. You can discount a “ juice” because of price or allocation that’s goofy shit like saying,… Oh sorry Mr. Muhammad Ali, I know your great but it’s someone else’s turn to be the champ, so we’re gonna take your tittle this year 🙄🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️ you’re too good to follow these lame channel. All this price/ allocation whining, and bourbon flip flop is making the bourbon/whisky group boring corney and lame and boring 2024 will probably be the death of this category

Just saw a Remus Gatsby the other day… just sayin’… it’s out of my price range. 😊

JD gettin' it done! Nice list Matt. Thanks for all your hard work. Keep it up!

Looks like the LL is back in stock at Seelbach’s

I was able to get a few on your list. My favorite is four roses 135th limited edition.
Loved your list! My additions would possibly be bottles you did not have an opportunity to purchase. My suprising finds include BTAC Eagle, Pappy 20, Four Roses LE 2023, and Birthday Bourbon. Love the Stagg a23 and the EH Taylor Cast Strength.

Great list. Another great bourbon that not many people are talking about was Garrison Brothers Cowboy bourbon at 140.7 proof. It was just fantastic!
Loved it Matt. Having been a fan for a long time, so many on the list don’t surprise me one bit. Thanks for all you do.
Yes! I literally just picked up the Jack Daniels Single Barrel, Barrel proof rye today! First score of the Year!
Thanks for you content in 2023, it has been a great year watching your channel. Hope to see more of the JD speciality bottles nationwide and more available, you would think they have the stock for it,.
Very cool for them to gift you the KoK.
I’m looking forward to the Stagg review. I have the same bottle and hope you love it as much as I do.
Lucky seven had some great products in 2023. Looking forward to their 2024 releases!
Great list Matt, 1 missing that is a banger, Hard Truth…. Love all there products..
Loving that JD is crushing it. Hoping that their production capacity allows for the 10 & 12 year releases becoming more readily available. Also love almost all their experimental releases (the tequila one is kinda average).
Love it! Great list! I got lucky and got 2 Remus Gatsby Reserves. Opened 1 and it is a banger! Love it, keep up the good work.
I’m on board with the Jack 12. Absolutely unbelievable
A good list, Bro Porter. I’ve never heard of Boulder before, gotta put on my search shoes.
Awesome to see I have a few of them ...lol.. Remus Gatsby, Russel's rickhouse cnf, JD 10 &12, barrel proof rye, michter's 10 rye, and stagg. They are all awesome!
Great list matt..wish I could get at least half of them in the uk..many thanks
Heck ya Matt, my JD barrel proof rye bottle was a top 3 of 2023 for me too! (Realizing they all will differ a little yes) Honorable mention to their BiB rye release as well. For the price point & availability it’s amazing!!
I.W Harper 15 year review would be dope. Seems eh, but you’re the pro!
I love the Porter order! I hope to acquire some more of these bottles in the future. I have a couple, but on the lookout to try Lucky 7 with those higher age statements!
Great list. Agree on the Jack 12 and Jack SBBP rye.
This is a very well-considered list. I agree that blinds should be a factor, but not the only factor in creating these lists. I loved JD12 this year. I still put RRSR CNF in front, but lots of good surprises this year.
I am sad you did not run down a bottle of the RR13 batch 4, which I thought was really good. Batch 5… I had last night. And while it is my least favorite of the series, it’s still great! Russell’s killing it!
Thank you, Matt. Great video.
Great video!!!! look forward to your content in 2024.
Jack killed it in 2023! I really enjoyed JD twice barreled too 🤙
My Guy ! How did you not put your Blue Run Chosen pick in this !?!?!?! That was my absolute favorite from 2023 ! Soooooo Goooood ! I wish I had another one 1️⃣
I cant put my own picks into a best of list lol
Great list Matt!
That King of Kentucky is so good. Had it at a hotel last month and it’s now my grail bottle.
Need to check out the AD Laws 4 Grain cask strength. The specific barrel pick I have is phenomenal.
I got it from total wine in centennial :D
Excellent list Matt! Love the channel. Sagamore 8 year?
JD 12 was my pick as well. Cheers
You gotta try Sagamore 8 year. Best Rye I've had and a top 10 pour for me all time.
Great list Matt❤️
Look at Matt, defending the honor of A222 laser code owners across the country. You are an American hero!
Love that you restricted it to bottles you could easily get ahold of. Love the content brother, keep it up.
Great video Matt! I got to try a lot of these, I personally was disappointed in Disco 10 but disco 11 is wild! Looking forward to getting myself a bottle of gatsby 23. Also what barrel was your M10?
NIIIIIIIIIIIIICE! 2023 WAS EPIC 4 SURE!
Had JD12 at a Speakeasy...it was simply phenomenal. I'm chasing that bottle for sure as well as Camp Nelson F. I have Camp Nelson C and it's awesome.
I know they don't make bourbon, but what about Colorado's Talnua American whiskies? Give some love to your local boy Patrick Miller! 😊
Thse videos are pretty awesome. We need a place where we can buy some of these at MRSP or close! Lol. I've only gotten lucky once.
Agree that JD SB BP rye is phenomenal,preferably the 130+ proofs.
Did you review the KoK or just speaking off hand? I’d like an episode please!
We wouldn't need the laser code to call you out on the RR13, the neck tag is the giveaway lol. ❤
SO SO SO Happy that Holladay made your list Matt!! Wait until you get your hands on a seven year Rickhouse proof!! Might be a Top 10'er!!
Great list 🎉
By some strange freak of whiskey nature, I scored two bottles of JD12 last year and a bottle of JDSBBPR. I agree that both are fantastic. That said, I don’t have many of the rest of your list. 😢
I bought that bottle of Jack Daniel's toasted pecan in Memphis. It is so freaking good!
Was the 12 yr Jack Daniels anything like the 10 year that came out a few years ago?
I'm sad I don't have more, but at least i have 4 of the bottles on your list.
Swapped 20ml with port of a fresh crack SBJD Rye. Didn’t last the weekend. Been enjoying them on their own but wanted to experiment.
Hopefully 13Th Century Rye Reserve makes you 2024 list Matt. Bottle shipped today! That is if you're channel will be around? I remember hearing your moving on to another venture soon.
it was hard for me to finish that pecan chips Jack. dunno why but it had an unruly funk for me
Can you make a video where you say "Pecans from Colorado" over and over?
😂
Did you try RRSR CNC? I’d be curious how it stacks against the CNF
No Jim Beam white label? Lol. Great list. Wish I could get half of them! Love that JD is releasing tasty whistle again.
I'm just here to say hi to Dan from Junkies because Matt mentioned laser codes. Hey Dan!
I see the JD 10 and 12 all the time but for $300 and up. That's a hard pass for me.
I have 8 bottles from this list and their all from the top half of the list, that means ALOT of these bottles are obtainable for regular jabronies... PS - Wow, WTWT finally did his Top of '23 list, and we love him for that!
I hate to tell you this but to produce more 12-year-old whiskey you had to ramp up production 12 years ago!!! Great video . I agree with a lot of picks I was able to taste and 2023 which isn’t much but a lot of agree with yours.
Just curious. Why no Willet Purple tops? Didn’t get a bottle or just not as good to you as what’s on your list? Thanks
JD is in fire
Plenty of JD 12 in stores around me if you want to pay $250 and up.
Bardstown discovery 11 has to be on the list! There is a store right down the street from me that has them for 120! If you want one let me know and we can work something out
I'd take a couple if your offer is available to those not named Matt! We don't have Bardstown distributed in North Dakota.
Its cool jack Daniels has branched out so much on their name brand label. Jim beam needs to follow their lead.
Great list! JD12 is 100% the best whiskey of 2023.
Both stores I actually found JD12 in want $300 a bottle. I’d rather get 6 bottles of SBBP for that much money.
JD 12 was amazing
Barrel King all the things!!
Rare Stash batch 2
Penelope 9 yr 4 grain
What laser code is your ECBP A123?
I know it's a little tough to find, but did you ever try BlAnToNs?
I love KoK.
What about the best milk of 2023
Rabble rabble rabble
No Evan Williams bottled in bond, L O L.
Wow no way. Jack at #1?? You’re kidding
OMG... JDs? No, not the Lincoln County method.
🤦🏾♂️COME ON MATT, you’re my favorite bourbon TH-cam channel, don’t subscribe to that lame ass script EVERY CHANNEL HAS “ I have have acquired a bottle of my own” BS…Great is Great.
