My liquor store guy said he should be getting in Russell’s Reserve 13 batch 4 next week. He is holding one for me at MSRP. Cannot wait! 🥃
Just got batch 4 yesterday
You lucky bastard. 😁
Consider me jealous! 😂 That said, I can't complain too much. I've thankfully got a guy now who holds bottles of things like Stagg, EH Taylor, Larceny BP, etc. But Russell's 13 is still high on the priority list!
is the new RR13 that dropped on Reserve Bar last week the only one from this year? Or was there one already released as batch 4 and then this recent one will be batch 5?
@@bryanmacke Not 100% sure, but think there is one release per year.
Looking at both of those bottles sitting in front of me. Got the JD a month ago, and the Russell's about 6 months ago. Been hesitant to open either - might not last long after seeing this.
Gonna have to pull the trigger !!
Weekend and Father's day - what the hell?!
Great match up. Have to do it again in 3 weeks or so to allow them to open up. Another weekend to look forward to!
no reason to not open em dude! including BTAC, these are 2 of my top 5. The JD12 might be my all time favorite
Two very special bottles! Love them both, but I lean towards the R13 as well. Cheers Jason and Keep rocking 🥃
Did this head to head the other night. Russells took it by a slim margin for me. Different profiles but an awesome head to head! Cheers
We actually just did this comparison this afternoon! I think the JD12 beat the RR13 from this year hands down. I think the other RR13 LL/JL I compared to the JD12 the RR13 won that battle. Crazy how different the newer batch of RR13 is from the other releases.

@@bryanmacke seems like the batch 4 and 5 were both released at the same time.
@@mattpaulmorris what was it about the new RR13 release that u didn't like as much? if you don't mind. thx
@@bryanmacke I still really enjoyed it don’t get me wrong. It was pretty obvious that the new batch didn’t have near the volume of higher aged barrels in it. It was apparent by comparing the color side by side and the flavor profiles were totally different.
Nice show ! So hard to pick one of those over the other! I have the JD bu5 not opened, will wait till I get RR 13 to do a blind as well! Have a great Dad Day!
Bro it's like you made this for me. I've been hunting my ass off for a decent priced (not even a good deal, just not an insane $400+ bottle) Russell's 13 and then got a JD12 bottle and OMG it's my new favorite bottle.
So this is like my dream team comp.
Freaking awesome brotha!!!! I need that Kelvin Collab 3 vs old Carter B14 ….let’s goooo!!
I totally agree about the neck pour, I was so disappointed and was so happy to go back to it.
Great review. RR13 is one of my all-time favorites but I have yet to see a bottle of JD12 here in the Rhode Island/Massachusetts area. Bums me out but I'll keep looking. Cheers.
I’d love to see a double bass between Knob Creek Single Barrel 9yr and Russels Reserve Single Barrel! Both single barrels, both similar ages and just a slight difference in proof. Both killer bottles and killer values. 🙌🏻
Never even seen a RR13, but I do have the Jack 12 and that bottle is one of my favorites. Love the sweet butterscotch oak notes.
Calumet 16 v Jack 12 would be a great double bass too.
You’ll never see a RR 13 on the shelf, or if you do it’ll be $500+
@@johncannon3593I just found a bottle today for $160 on the shelf...
Neither of these have anything on the Benchmark FP I’m drinking 😂. Thanks Jason!
I saw both of these in the wild up here in MA today - $500 for the JD12 & $400 for the RR13. I need a new job.
Lol. Yikes
I’m dying for your take on the new 2023 batch. I just got a bottle. I have two of the original 2021 release, one being nearly empty, and one of the 2022 release (not sure which, since that seems to be the only year of the three with two releases).
So I at least have one from each year but no idea what to expect of the new one.
Which batch is the Russell 13?
Hell yeah, scored both bottles last week at MSRP in NC! Turned down the EHT Rye.. think I pick the right 2 bottles! Good luck tonight Jason!
OGD 114 v. Barrell Vantage
It would be nice, if you got all the bottle in bond labels that are available, and do a royal rumble of the bonded labels.
Just started the video have them both, I’m team Russell.
Russell's 13 is also double the price if you find both at MSRP. But sounds like the Russell's is well worth it
Just picked up the JD12 today for 90. I need to get a back up RR13 tho! Great video!
Good luck tonight - really whatever the result, you have already won!
Unfortunately can’t get the Russell’s 13, just missed it in a wheel drawing today. This allocation game is exhausting! Lol
So glad you did this double base!! I flipped out when I see the thumbnail.
Oh wow, didn't realize the Russell's had increased in price so much. First two releases were around $70 right?
Yep. Just went up recently
yeah i got a bottle in december for i believe 70-80? Something like that
Kinda sucks that the SRP on RR13 got so expensive.
Jack Daniel's 2020 special release rye Vs 2023 single barrel Jack barrel proof
Hello Jason, what is the laser date code on the back of the RR13? (Batch 3?)
I blame RR 13 for RR Store picks drying up. Those where everywhere and, while popular, still mostly available when released. After 13 came out, anytime someone drops a RR store pick, they are gone in a minute.
I (somehow) got a bottle of the new Russell’s 13 in the pre-sale Russell’s announced. I think they sold out in literally a minute
You’re crushing the content bro!! Woooooo!!!
Good luck tonight on Matt Madness!
I would love to see clermont vs jacobs well! I killed my jacobs so I won’t be able to compare them. You could triple bass with the knob 18, but I think it would end up last.
When you're tasting do you prep your palate for higher proof tastings?
Dude that hat is killing it! Great review.
Thanks for the great DB episode. I was hoping the RR13 would win because that's the only I've got out of these two lol Cheers!
You mention the butterscotch a lot. Off topic, but curious if you have ever tried American Brick Bourbon. It is the most butterscotch-ey bourbon I have had by a long shot. Never seen any reviews of it, and curious what an aficionado like you would think of it.
Thanks for the great review.
I will check it out. Never had that one.
I spy some a new Hardins Creek back there! Where's the review? :)
Just got it. Monday or Tuesday will be the review
Nice comparo! Old Ezra 7 CS and Barrel #34 CS
Russell 13 being stocked on shelf to day at local store & was excited until I saw the price at $300. Pass
Wish I could get either… Have the Jack 10.
Solid matchup right here. Well done.
How do you tell what bach of RR13 you have? Just got a bottle and can't tell what bacth it is.
I’m going to say Russell 13 before even watching the video. 13 is amazing
WT fan boy 😇
My two favorite bottles.
JD12 vs RR13.. life ain’t so bad, eh? Lol
Turkeys always good, but im pretty happy with the 2 jack 12s i got too
Wish I could say that! I would love to find one.
Living here in Columbus Ohio, i was wondering if it is worth it to chase these releases or if getting s.b. b.p. release from Watershed Distillery or Highbanks Distillery is the better option. It seems like you can rarely ever chase down the rare allotted bottles here. Any thoughts Jason? How well do you think they would compete with the big boys?
Unfortunately they are quite in different leagues. Watershed just doesnt have the aged up stocks yet but I do think High Bank can go head to head with other blended whiskys on he market. I think its super impressive
Hoping to find a JD12 soon
Two probably I'll never see... Enjoy!!
LL/JL or LL/KE?
Those are the two I’ve owned and both are very similar imo. The new batch I tried today that came out this year (don’t remember the batch code) was completely different! Side by side the color was darker on the JL and the profile was darker and more enjoyable on the JL.
@@mattpaulmorris i just got a KE yesterday even though its from '22. JL was great looking forward to a side by side soon
Which batch Russels was this one?
Call it a Rusty Jack
Which batch is this RR13?
More than redeemed yourself from yesterdays Booker's video!
Thanks for the head to head.
No need for redemption when youre right
@@LeatherDaddy97 I certainly didn't question the outcome of the Booker's tasting. It was almost a non-review 😆
Alberta Premium Cask Strength vs Jack Daniel's Single Barrel Barrel Proof Rye
I like them all ! Good juice 👍
I've got both, havent opened either yet. Got the jack for 140 and the RR13 for 155. I guess the real question would be, which is better at their actual msrp, since there is a $70 difference there. I had to overpay for the JD12, but apparently the msrp on the new RR13 is 150. If the trend continues it will be a 200 bottle for next years release. ugh. I expect the JD 12 retail to go up next year too.
Thanks for this comparison battle video. Been trying to figure which one I should get seeing they will be a little over msrp.
Wild Turkey by a Kentucky mile.
Great video.
Can you imagine if the Jack Daniels 12 was cask strength? Ohhhh buddy.....I think the finish would Excel at cask strength!
Has JD 12 been released in Ohio yet!?!?!?
JD and RR are so distinct, that doing a blind is futile.
I mentioned that in the video. It was more of a comparison to see how they drank. Not to try and tell which was which.
Russell's 10 vs Rare Breed
RR13 just is not worth $150
Like it a lot but over hyped atm
Did you just 150.00 for the Russels??… just picked one up for 70.00
They announced an MSRP hike
@@TheMashandDrum I got a steal then. Must not have updated their system
Jason did Ohio get the JD12 in 750ml or 700ml? We got 700ml in Michigan.
It's 700
They were all 700 ml
@@LeatherDaddy97 No they weren't. It depends what state your in. Minnesota got 750ml. Even the secondary market lists 750ml.
@@leeknowlton7303 i live in minnesota and got two bottles. Both are 700 ml. They were all 700 ml. Across the board. The people on secondary probably just didnt read the label.
@Aidan I am also in MN and mine was a 750ml.
Great review. Although I choose not to support Jill Daniel's any longer with their drag shows, what weirdos
More for us. You're the weirdo, bub
Jack Russell 12 and a half
You can win MM man. Beat that fouled mouthed Shook…
