Knob Creek 12 is solid! It’s readily available in Florida though.
I might need to take a trip!
Brother that was too cool. That price for blantons Gold was insane. I am pretty interested in that blackberry whiskey now lol. Nice pick ups though. Looking forward to that double oak you got coming out man. Congrats again brother.
Thank you Captain Drizzo
The Bowman Distillery is about 20 mins from me. Great folks there!! The lady did a tasting for us, and she turned me onto Tinkerman's Gin and Ginger Beer. Didn't think I'd like it, but it went way harder than it should have!!!!! The Port Cask is a great pour for the price!!
That sounds like a great combo! Might have to try it one day! Cheers! 🥃
You really should have picked up the Belle Meade.
I did! Check the end of the video🤙🏼
@@Bourbon_Hunter ok, I commented when you passed in the middle of the video.
Belle Meade reserve is a must buy. Near cask strength 6-8 year old MPG is almost impossible to find at a decent price now
Man I love your videos! Seeing someone still excited by a knob creek 12 yr makes me smile😀🤔😉🙏✌️
Thank you for the compliment! I appreciate you watching 🤙🏼🥃
Great finds, great video. Keep ‘em coming!
Thank you for watching bro 🤙🏼
How much was that Rebel 10? I’ve heard that is a buy on sight bottle, never seen or had it though.
Hello from New Jersey! Love me some KC12 (very available here @$65-$75), but you passed on Baker's 7 at $57 at this spot. You guys should do a blind on Baker's vs KC12 - you might be surprised. Love the channel - keep it up!
I like the idea! Thank you for watching!
All the bowman products are really good!
Have you ever had the John J Bowman from them? Is it that much better than their normal stuff?
Bro! Embrace the ‘Bourbon Hunter OUT’😂 y’all should team up on more of these
We will be soon! Thank you for watching!
Looking back at it WE EMBRACED IT 😁
Great video, imagine having someone named “HarryBallsonya” try to be somebody important. Love that drew found pure happiness and the edits are getting BETTER 🔥one other thing……..that blade and bow doesn’t deserve to be in a display case 🤮
Couldn’t have said it better myself 😂🥃
Another great video guys! Good to see the liquor stores getting into the secondary market game (insert eye roll). Let me know if you need RR10. I've seen it as low as $28.49 locally and I think it's hovering around $31 here now. Keep up the great work!
Thank you for watching! Man thats awesome pricing where you are at! You ever trued RR Single Barrel? Is it worth the extra $15?
@@Bourbon_Hunter HUGE fan or Russell's Reserve. I currently have 4 different single barrel store picks and they're all amazing. Spend the extra $$ for it and give it a shot. The RR13 is one of my top 10 all-time favorites, but it's hard to find. Someday I'm hoping to find a Rickhouse, but that will probably be.......never! Keep up the great hunts!
Cheers man! Thank you for the feedback I will totally have to get a bottle now!
I was able to stop at Gibby's a couple years ago and bought some of their store picks. They definitely did not let me down. My wife rolled her ankle in the storm drain in front of their store but I still enjoyed their store! They ROCK!
Dude what a story! Went from happy to tragic all in one sentence! 😂 Hope she is okay!
@Bourbon_Hunter she ruined some dirt on it and she was fine! Lol
😂 tough as nails
Those High West single barrels picks with the black label are instant buys imo. Also, that Fibonacci Blend Stellum Rye at the 9:50 mark, just got voted by Fred Minnick's Ascot Awards as the best rye of 2023.
Interesting. Didn’t know it was award winning
Great video, I just found your channel today and have been binging your videos. The George Dickel single barrel is very good, I don't think $55 is a good price but anything less than $45 is a great deal.
Man that means so much that you’re watching them all 🥲 Haha! What do you know about that George Dickel 15 for $54?? I feel like I should have bought that
The Dickle 15 you want the highest proof you can find the lower proof are not to great but the 150+ are outstanding!
Great finds! All of the Knobs are 🔥! You will love the 1792 full proof - tastes similar to Rare Breed w out the Turkey funk. Great bottle! -Russ
That turkey funk gets me every time honestly its so unique! Cheers!🥃
Coming from VA, it's funny for me to see normal Bowman products limited to "1 per person." Not a dig at the brand, just a comment on how radically different supply & demand is from place to place. The VDC's Courage & Conviction line is very nice, as is their VHW cask finished line. Try the Double Cask Reserve in the Courage & Conviction line.
Keep up the hunt! I found a few Knob 15s for msrp yesterday... i spent too much on them lol
Thank you for watching! I have the 18 and its amazing. The 15 is on my list!
Nice shop!!
That pikesville rye you moved over is a great bottle. Heaven Hill product 110 proof rye usually around 55$
I love Heaven hill. I will keep that on my list! Thank you watching!
Love these hunting videos. I went yesterday and picked up a knob creek smoked maple. And a weller 12 year first time Iv seen a weller 12 in a store!
You lucky son of a gun. I would kill for a Weller 12 what did you pay for it if you don’t mind me asking?
@@Bourbon_Hunter $289 honestly it seemed high but I wasn’t sure but I grabbed it anyway
i got a weller full proof store pick for 60 bucks
@@chris21eku that’s awesome mann! Yeah unfortunately I never go in this store and unfortunately I live in a tourist area. And iv never seen 12 year anywhere so it was a easy buy for me.
That Heavens Door store pick 👍🏻
Its good! Thank you for watching!
That Joseph Magnus bottle, is very good and worth the money.
The burning chair is a great bottle. Lots of flavor for a good price.
I’ve loved it last time I tried it!
Is Russell's 10 getting hard to find? Everywhere in my area under $40 but I'm willing to stock up if there's a run coming.
I believe so tbh
I think it’s getting hard to find for a good price, I’ve only seen the single barrel a couple times though
I shoulda bought the single barrel tbh
@@drewbeard21 The single barrel is definitely harder to find but the regular expression is still pretty common. Sad that it was $25 a couple years ago.
Its wild to me that Weller, BT, ER, Blantons and every bourbon in the world was 30-50% cheaper a couple of years ago.
Love your Chanel. Live up in Chapin. What is the best option in Charleston, Mt Pleasant to find some allocated?
Oh its so hit and miss pretty much anywhere you see in the videos where I find stuff. Orange burg had a couple good spots too thats not such a haul for you. Check out bottles in columbia too they do random allocated msrp drops too
Join the discord to talk to us locals about stuff here in SC if you’d like
Thanks so much, I’m in Mt Pleasant last 2 nights and will be hitting Orangeburg on way back to Chapin tomorrow. Got a buddy that Distributes 1792, will let you know when he gets me a couple 1792 12 year…My favorite
Please please please do!!!
You guys found some HITTERS 🔥 Awesome video
I appreciate you watching! We snagged some good bottles for sure! Cheers 🥃
Knob Creek is a great whiskey just got the 7 year rye. It’s one that will be on my shelf always. I have many that I have no unicorns I don’t chase that dragon and really can’t afford it anyway. Super nice picks y’all Enjoy!!
Thank you! I agree the knob rye is great! Cheers!🥃
Just came across video. Great work. I would have grabbed the Heaven Hill Bottled in Bond and everything else you took home. Looking forward to the next run 😎
Drew picked up one last episode!!
By the way- you’re lucky to have a buddy like Drew riding with you-none of my friends could give a damn-😉peace!✌️
Drew is one of a kind if you wanna call it that 😂🤙🏼🥃 thanks for watchin my videos
Awesome video! Love all the hunting videos. I will mark this down for my next road trip. I’m not that far away in the Charlotte area.
You’d be surprised what these small towns hold! I go to USC tailgates all the time hit me up if you come that way! Share a pour!
Congrats on that knob creek 12 find! I just picked up a bottle of that one and I love it.
I love it! Its a solid pour for sure!
Creek water is actually Yelawolf’s whisky, what the first store had was their cinnamon whisky. It’s like fire ball. The normal offering isn’t terrible but a lot better stuff for cheaper. I went to the distillery about 3 years ago they were nice but it’s not bourbon. Made in a small town in NC
Might have to try it out! Im am no stranger to fireball shooters
Also Drew is right…….Knob creek 12 is amazing! I love it
Recently picked up a HD SP here in Murfreesboro and it is a sleeper IMO. Let us know how you like the one you found.
I sure will I am excited to try it! Thank you for watching! Cheers 🥃🤙🏼
That Driftless Glen Wheated SP is something special. I got 2 bottles
✍🏼 wrote that down! Thank you for watching!
Good job guys, I went out today and found a bottle of, Maker's Mark 2023 limited release BEP 110.7 Proof.
Heck yeah! I got that in my other video! Reviewed it too in a Barrel Proof Haul Review and it stacks up right in line against the best!
How much was the knob 12 year?
$67
I think I found a small bottle of blanton's for $180, is that the going price?
😂😂😂
@@Bourbon_Hunter seems high. That's why I'm asking. But someone said that very high.
That belle meade at that price def worth it IMO
Heck yeah! Thanks for watching! Cheers 🥃
Its crazy how wild the bourbon hunting is. What I see on the shelf regularly is hard to find other places and things others find I could never find, and if I do its an insanely unreasonable price or in a crazy bundle.
Yupp its weird across the world
You zoomed right past Penelope. All good stuff.
Not the biggest fan of them 🤫 you’ll see in the other videos
Good haul guys 👍
Thank you for watching! Glad you enjoyed!
Are the knob creek 12 that good?
Its very good 😁 Thank you for watching! Cheers! 🥃
OMG those secondary prices are CRAZY!!!! WAY killer selections on the the east coast...👍👍👍
Thank you for watching! You west coast?
No I'm BFE Wyoming...lol
@@everardosalinasjr2812 That's awesome ive always wanted to travel out there and see the open land vs all the mountains we have here!
The rare perfection is a buy.
I just picked up an Old Elk 10yr Wheated Whiskey the other day. I can't find any info on it besides the basic bottle description or any reviews but it's damn good.
Wanna share? 🥺🥃
Its crazy how popular Crown is and up here in Canada we just sluff it off
I cant even recall ever seeing an aged one more than a couple years and the stuff is water up here
Thought I was pretty happy to recently get my hands on a 1792 full proof at a good price until y’all got that knob creek 12! Haha awesome stuff… let us know what y’all think of that green river if y’all pick one up, heard good things, haven’t tried it
Heck yeah! The full proof is awesome btw thank you for watching!
That Redemption 9 or 10 yr bourbon. Couldn’t tell which one it was. If High Rye, it’s a must!
I will take notes! Thank you for watching! Cheers 🤙🏼🥃
@@Bourbon_HunterIt's cask strength MGP and is a hidden gem.
Also don't pass up those high west double rye finished bottles. HW discontinued the program so when they're gone, they're gone.
I love these videos. Gives me an idea of what to keep an eye at for and also just always interesting to see what's going on around the country. I can find knob creek 9 for 28 at the Walmart down the road but I've never seen eagle rare for under 200. Strange times.
Thats wild! Strange world we live in
@@Bourbon_Hunter I know and I don't love knob creek but eagle rare is in my top 3!
need more hunting videos! love the vibe guys, keep up the good work!
Vibe ✅ Thanks for watching!
Courage and Conviction is from Virginia. I personally didn’t care for it, I got minis of both of their offerings. It was an easy pass, reminded me more of a super slightly peated scotch with little to no flavor.
Gibby’s always has store picks, so happy to see y’all went there!
Love gibby’s! Caleb is the best!
I would have grabbed both of the Tumblin Dice, the KC store pick. Along with about a dozen other bottles you walked by lol. My inability to walk away from good bourbon is my financial downfall 🤣
He almost sold me on those Tumblin Dice too! I try to set myself a budget but always get too excited and go over 😂 Thanks for watching! Cheers!🥃
Tumbling Dice and KC 120 store picks are my favorite bottles for price vs taste. Both are excellent and won't break the bank.
Yeah, the Tumblin’Dice is nice! I’ve got the SBBP on the shelf and really like it.
Just came across the channel and I’ll be moving to Ladson in early August. You guys ever do meet ups or bottle shares? I need to start getting familiar with the areas whiskey communities.
Heck yeah we do! Starting to put that together now! Join the discord to chat and learn more!
@@Bourbon_Hunter awesome! What is the discord link?…found it!
In Austin, TX i still regularly pay 27.99-31.99 for KC9, I rarely see it for more than 35, I always grab one at less than 30
Tumbling Dice is amazing and won't break the bank for a store pick barrel strength bourbon. It smells insane. KC 120proof store picks are also amazing for a great price. Highly recommend trying both.
I will! Thank you for watching 🥃🤙🏼
Plus Tumbling Dice is a killer Stones song! Lol
I read that the Belle Meade reserve is not being discontinued...It is just stopping being sold throughout the U.S. It will now only be sold in its home state Tennessee...or so I read in several online articles and info from the distllery facebook page (whether on not this is true remains to be seen). I guess from now on everyone outside Tennessee will have to order bottles online from retailers that will sell and ship it. I am sure the odds and ends shops around the U.S. will probably still carry it though. Some liquor shops have those special relationships and pull with distributors and like to aquire regional spirits and harder to get stuff to sell in their shops from many states away.
Good to know! Thank you!
Awesome video love it!
Thanks bro 🤙🏼🥃
You should have bought more than one of those bellmead they are smooth and buttery delicious and the new stuff is nothing like the old stuff I put a case away when I found out they were done
I agree.. an oversight on my part but my wallet thanks me sometimes 😂🥃 Cheers! Thanks for watching!
Got me a 1792 full proof store pick along with a Blantons at my store. Paid 120$ for both not a bad deal!
Thats a great deal! Cheers enjoy those! 🥃
Knob creek 12 is not everywhere and I feel the same way about it, my lower proof go-to along with OF 1910. Goes for $80 when I find it and it is my Friday Night pour
OF 1910 & 1920 are two very solid bottles have you ever though about trying Michters American? Its a staple on my shelf
the Old Elk Wheated Bourbon, Wheat Whiskey, and Rye store picks are typically more expensive than the 5 year Bourbon store picks, like $70-$90 range
Yeah thats what it seems like which im not sure $90 is worth it. Barrel Vantage is $90 and is one if my favorites
$29.99 Knob Creek Total Wine in Long Beach. Just found a Booker’s at $93, a 1792 Full Proof SB for $48 and a Knob Creek 12 for $64.99 at Total Wine.
Dude the prices where you are are amazing
I live in Charleston and y’all just popped up on my feed. Leave a trail of bread crumbs to the good stores!
Heck yeah! If you want to join the discord in the description of the video there is a lot of locals in there where we all talk about bourbon in our area! Also thanks for watching! Hope I can give you an insight to stores around here 🤙🏼🥃
@@Bourbon_Hunterwill do!
One of the perks of being in real estate is that I’m all over town, so I like to randomly stop in liquor stores and see if there’s anything I can’t live without.
Heck yeah!
@@Bourbon_Hunter for Father’s Day my neighbor gave me a 2oz sample bottle 2015 EH Taylor Cured Oak. Needless to say it was 🤯 He bottled and sealed the sample before finishing it and had been sitting on it.
Loving the vids dude!
Thank you for watching man its people like you that make this so fun!
Good score on 1792 FP, I need to get 1 as well.
I ended up going back up there and grabbing two more it was so darn good! Highly recommend grabbing it! Especially for that price
Don't sleep on The Representative. Very underrated IMO.
It seems like tons of stores near me have Representative store picks! Might have to check em out!
I have a bottle and it was decent, a little too much rye spice for me at 21%
Drew has a representative pick and he said the same thing!
Dev’s actually had a 1792 Full Proof store pick back in May when i went to Kiawah. They were so dusty too, could tell they had been there for a hot minute
Dev’s is a nice store I enjoyed going to his place in my other video and we picked up two store picks from him
@@Bourbon_Hunter just saw that video, that looks like a different Dev’s. The one i found 1792 at was down in South Charleston
Gibby's other location in West Ashely is one of my favorite stores in the Charleston area. They always have great store picks
Gotta love local stores! Join the discord a lot of locals in there!
Sazerac rye is great stuff
It's odd that different states have different bourbons on their shelves. The bourbon boom is still going strong and stores are marking up the most popular ones. I live in a state that controls liquor sales. Our selection isn't that great,but everything is sold at MSRP. The bad part is trying to find allocated bourbons!
South carolina has some great scores but also some crazy store owners that charge an arm and a leg… thank you for watching!
Sheesh! $112 for Sagamore Rye Cask Strength? $54.99 here in Ohio… I always get jealous of all the store picks in other states, until I see the price on the shelfers.
Ohio gets so many buffalo trace products its wild
rare perfection 14 bro a sleeper
From what I heard I may need to give it a shot
Did you miss JM Cigar blend for $99?!?!? Did I hear that right? Up in MD that’s easily $160-190
I’ve only seen the KC12 once in Wisconsin. It very good, I’ve been looking for another bottle for a while.
Its worth the hunt! Thank you for watching 🤙🏼🥃
KC 12 is near impossible to find in WI. If you ever go through Indiana, it seems to be quite easy to find there, and at around $60.
how much for the knob creek 12?
About $73
I honestly not a big fan of Sazerac Rye but in my area they can be harder to find and if you do the prices vary wildly. Well I was recently in NOLA, and they had it EVERYWHERE! Picked a bottle up at a grocery store in the area for $19.99 because the price was quite good and I will at least have a bottle if someone visits and enjoys it.
Good stuff man! I love NOLA! I have not tried it yet and am super excited! Thank you for watching!
It makes a fantastic old fashioned in case you don’t mind mixing it
You sir have caught my interest now
Creek Water is a whiskey Yelawolf the singer/rapper released. It taste like it has 6 months age with some color added. I think it is more of a mixer budget whiskey. The red bottle in cinnamon flavored whiskey like fireball.
Interesting… I listen to Yellawolf and never knew this thank you!
@@Bourbon_Hunterthe regular Creek Water might be worth picking up and reviewing if you are a fan of his. If is not expensive and decent for the price. I would say it is not age long but it is not bad. Fred Minnick did an interview with Yelawolf Wolf and tried the whiskey. He had pretty good things to say about it on his TH-cam channel.
@@Bourbon_Hunter th-cam.com/video/HitE8LxQzZs/w-d-xo.html
Thank you!
1792 FP is a banger!
Almost empty now Drew and I shared a ton with our friends tonight!
@@Bourbon_Hunter cheers 🍻
Belle Meade for 52.99!!
Can’t pass up on that!
keep it up blokes. be sure to wack a video out of trying your pick ups and letting us know how you like them 👍
You’re telling me I gotta sit down and drink 6 new bottles??? Awhh mannn! 🥲
Love the Knob Creek 12yr. Never see the 15yr
The 15 is every where here in south carolina for some reason
Should have grabbed the Jack Daniel’s Single Barrel Rye. Belle Meade is excellent.
I have a JD single barrel Rye at the house already! Looking for the new barrel strength version!
Soo smooth
You know it 🤙🏼😂
@@Bourbon_Hunter I love it hahah and am here for it!
One day I will do a video just for you where I try some Whiskey and try to drop “smooth” as many times as I can 😂
Those KC12 are great. Love that they are everywhere by me but hate the price increase to $70.
They are great, have you ever had the 18 year? Blows this out of the water I currently have 1 opened and 2 put up
I have a half empty bottle of 18 and agree 100%
@@lancebailey7359 no I foolishly passed on the 18 year when i was offered the chance to buy it.
You guys need to try Scotches
Drop me some you reccomend and i’ll check them out
Cool video , looks like you had a fun day
Its what I do instead of golfing 😂🥃
A Driftless Glenn wheated store pick?! Passed it up?? 🙇🏻♂️
I knowwwwww I didnt know much about them back then but ive seen the light! 😂🥃
i have had the big house but you need to get the big house 120 pretty damn good
They make a 120 proof????? 😱
Weller 12 lunardis Los Gatos California 90 bucks all day long
Bottle of Stagg - Try (finding) that in a small town 👀
the impossible task
You missed the 14yr orphan barrel Scarlet Shade. @9.50 minute mark.
Ima have to check that out! Good eye 🥃
Get the Old Soul Cask Strength store picks.
Yeah next store pick ima grab is going to be a old soul for sure
I'll send yall all the Russell's reserve 10 and knob creek 12 yall want for some of those henry mckenna! Can't find that in TX! 😂
Interesting! Join the discord and lets talk about it 🤫
Wish you would have got that rare perfection!
Ive heard mixed reviews of that tho
Don't sleep on the TX Bourbon (not the blended whisky). It's nice stuff.
I’ll keep that in mind buddy!
5:45 bellle mead is worth the 57 bucks
I quickly found that out after opening it so freakin good! Cheers! Thank you for watching! 🥃
KC12 for the WIN
Can’t believe we finally found it!
RR10 goes between 34.99 to 39.99 in Myrtle beach and north Myrtle area
Under rated $40 bottle IMO
Not sure if anybody commented but Creek Water is a whiskey made by Alabama-rapper Yelawolf.
Yupp thats what I learned after filming the video interesting to see celebrity brands try to do liquor
