    This format is just so great. Most whiskey channels will give you the 10-minute history of the distillery and process of making the whiskey, but sometimes I simply want to hear why I’d want to buy a bottle, how to drink it, and what other whiskies are like it. The rest of your channel does a great job of filling in those other gaps. If this series isn’t already in a playlist or place in your site to see the star ratings and drinking preference (neat, ice, cocktail), it would be awesome to keep a running list.

    Brianna missed a perfect opportunity to say “you gotta check yourself before you Rex yourself”

    I like how you guys did, “if you guys like this, try this!” Gives us different options to go try that we might not have thought of. Please do more of that!!

    I would love to see them do this with Green Spot just to see if other people get the coconut note that Daniel gets out of it. #try

    Did not expect only 3.2 stars. Personally it´s my fav within the more accessible whiskey category (incl. price). Great vid as always. Cheers guys

      One of my favorites but I think for some people it's a little too sweet and not peated.

    Aberlour 12 is one of my mainstays on my shelf, affordable and delicious

    as an islay man i don't usually get speyside but aberlour is amazing despite the sweetness. Also their tasting in their distillery is amazing (and pretty cheap too!)

    Ideas.. Balvenie Caribbean Cask 14 years old single malt.. or Balvenie Doublewood 12 years old, if the 14 is difficult to get a hold on..

    Shout out to the Cooper who built that barrel. True craftsmanship to handle that kind of abuse before breaking.

    Hey, fellow MBs and folks at Crowded Barrel! I'm an American in Hong Kong who has been journeying down the Whiskey Rabbit Hole since Christmas 2021. I've just put in my order for some awesome merch from your store and I cannot wait to receive it. I also referenced this video when deciding between the Abelour A'Bunadh versus getting a Glenlivet Nadurra cask, and I am happy to have picked the Abelour. Just as an aside for all of you living in the USA, if you're ever worrying about the prices of things like.. the above-mentioned Abelour 12, don't fret too much. Average prices in Hong Kong tend to double US prices for most whiskey. Example: Laprhoaig Lore cost me $130. Buffalo Trace costs ~$60. Eagle Rare ~$110. Ardbeg Corryvreckhan ~$130. The list goes on... As much as possible, gratitude should be felt for if you can find good drams at decent prices. :) Looking forward to the next episode! (PS: I don't use the standard Social Medias, so I'd love an email address or something to send some photos of drams being enjoyed at some cool sights in Hong Kong) ALSO: TRY - Glenlivet IPA Cask Experimental Series.

  • @theaxemanoffire1
    @theaxemanoffire1 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Another great Whiskey Tribe video. Y’all always make me laugh. One Scotch I’d recommend is a Glencadam 13 or the 15 if you’re feeling fancy.

  • @paladonis
    @paladonis 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    That barrel was CLEARLY Blessed by THE CHAAAD. How about something Bonded for the net whiskey? Like an Evan Williams. OH! Or even better Do Rittenhouse Rye! As always, a big thanks to you all and a Slainte Mhath to all you Bastards

    I'm interested in hearing your thoughts on the "Arran 10" which was top Scotch of 2021 by that Ralfy recognized site where folks voted via the Internet... Keep in mind the votes are from the general public, not necessarily experienced whisky taste experts. (I'll try to find the title of that whiskey community rating site.)
    Cheers!

    • @TheOriginalRaster
      @TheOriginalRaster 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Also by the way I see a review of Arran 10 from The Whisky Vault channel: reviewed 3 years ago by Daniel and Rex (I almost wrote Rex and Daniel... wow, major typo!)

    • @hakarthemage

      A good Arran single cask is my favourite and I usually prefer heavily smokey Ilays.

    I tried Aberlour 12 and liked it. I would definitely go back to it, but I'm still hunting for a decent replacement for Highland Park Einar. Sherried Scotches are my faves, for sure, but I like just a touch of smoke. That's the hard part.

    It's not exactly easy to get outside of NC, but Defiant Single Malt and Defiant Rye are legitimately good enough that if I were restricted to one product for the rest of my life, either one of them I would take without a second thought. No other whiskey even comes close for their flavor profile. I don't know what they are doing to get such a strong walnut profile but I LOVE it.

  • @fretless05
    @fretless05 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I have to call out the people who put "ardbeg" in there. I've had quite a bit of Aberlour, some 12, but mostly A'Bunahd, and can't say that I've ever caught any of the peatiness of anything Ardbeg puts out. BTW, does a bit of water still count as neat? Speaking of Ardbeg, the next whiskey should be Ardbeg Uigeadail (another of my favorites).

    @advaitkamat1940 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I seem to be the only one who saw this, but @ 4:09 Brianna turns around in celebration, where she very easily at least has a peripheral view of the flavor cloud. No way she would have said Ardbeg otherwise, it usually has a way smaller font.

  • @123mandown
    @123mandown 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    "Fruity" and "fruit" flavor is the same to me. To me it means the "brighter" fruit flavors like, apricot, melons, pickled cherries, raspberry, lemon/lime, orange, etc. Unless you specify "dark" for fruit, then its the other "common" "bright" fruit flavors. My opinion but Mooch got it just as right.
