    Sagamore is just knocking it out of the park lately with their finished ryes. The Sherry, Port and Rum cask finishes were fanfreakingtastic

    For a non-finished Sagamore, go with the 8 Year Reserve Series. Cask strength 8 year rye for $75 is hard to beat.

  • @kyleslusher4642
    @kyleslusher4642 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    I really like Dans list. Even though all but one is finished, the finishing can add such complexity of flavors to the whisky that is just an experience. Also like how he threw in a few cheaper options like Top Floor. That’s my go to crushable whisky.

    Had the Bardstown orgin bourbons last September when I did a tour. Really enjoyed all 3, but the high rye was my favorite. Tried them all straight from the barrel at about 126 proof, and they were great.

    So the double barrel on the fort Hamilton I believe is a bit of a misnomer. It is the blending of 2 different barrels not rebarreled. I sampled some of their rye distillate sent to me by the owner for a barrel pick and it is pretty good.

  • @richmcelmeel5430

    @johnadams427 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    @Dan you pronounced Boordy Vinyards right (board-ie). I drive by Boordy on my way to work each day. A lot of folks (wine snobs) don't like Boordy cause their wines are particularly very sweet and are often compared to basically being Welch's grape fruit juice. That being said, I can 100% see how that would lead to being solid barrels for finishing whiskey.
    Love the lineup on this video. Keep doing great things, fellas. I'm cheering you on.

  • @bourbonbill
    @bourbonbill ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Dan the Sagamore port 2022 release is amazing I love it. It’s alot better then batch 10 of MWND. That being said I think it’s basically distillery only this year not nearly as wide as the sherry finish which is also fire

  • @karl0318
    @karl0318 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I am in Texas and appreciate fine whiskey from all over - but especially Kentucky - and love Rebecca Creek (with the exception of their BiB which I think is overpriced at $50 for what it is). The Double Barrel Spanish Oak from Rebecca Creek is so good, I'm on my 3rd bottle! Absolutely delicious desert whiskey worth every penny!
