    I’ve probably said this a few times but you guys are killing it right now. As a younger guy who’s been a bourbon drinker for a little over a year now you guys have been my favorite channel to watch. Bringing Trenton on half way through last year is why you guys are exploding in subscribers. The father son chemistry spews out of your videos and it’s great to watch

  • @ryandees6044
    @ryandees6044 ปีที่แล้ว +22

    You guys skyrocketed faster than any whiskey tube and it’s because y’all are so wholesome and have what all of us want with a father son relationship. Keep up the good work fellas

    Glad to see some Bardstown Bottles $50 and under. Bardstown Bourbon has been rapidly increasing production, and it's nice to see that lowering shelf prices of their bottles. Every time I pass by the distillery, it seems like there is a new rickhouse up.
    Great video guys. 😎

    Great video, fellas. I got to try the Bardstown Origin series a few weeks ago. Went to my local liquor store and a Bardstown rep was there letting the staff taste the two new bottles. They recognized me as a regular and invited me back to join the tasting-good stuff! Liked both bottles but loved the wheater. Cheers!

    It makes up for the expensive bottles they usually sell.

    • @jamesb.8201
      @jamesb.8201 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Well remember, their expensive bottles are sourced and then blended or rebarreled for a particular taste. These new great bourbons are their own juice.

    They both are keepers. The BiB is quite simply a bourbon must buy on sight. Fusion 5,6 and 7 were magnificent. The new Origin series continues the good streak.

    Hi Kurt, you made a cocktail for Trenton awhile back with Absolute pear vodka with spiced pear laqueur and some other ingredients. Found the st george spiced pear laqueur grabbed a bottle of absolute, but can't seem to find that video. Could you or one of your other subscribers point me in the right direction. Love your channel and happy new year.

    • @slbdrinks
      @slbdrinks  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I don’t think I mixed both of those in the same cocktail. The Absolute pear would have been in the Fallons Revenge and we did a Manhattan show where my original Manhattan had the spiced pear liquor mixed in.

    • @richardriggs4413
      @richardriggs4413 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@slbdrinks Thanks Kurt. I forgot that was a Manhattan you made. Made the Fallons Revenge. The misses and I really liked that. Actually used the spiced pear in the Fallon Revenge on the 2nd drink. Still good. Thanks Again.

  • @noahsmith6466
    @noahsmith6466 ปีที่แล้ว

    Trenton, I just saw the vintage vs modern WT video. Had a thought of a blind tasting video. Prank Kurt by having 4ish glasses of bourbon of a non-expensive bottle like a early times or OF100. In glass 1, having 2oz of bourbon. In glass 2, having 2oz of bourbon, with a drop of water. Glass 3 - 1.5oz of bourbon with .5oz of water. So on and so on adding more water. I think Kurt would go crazy and it’d be pretty funny

    A distillery in Weston, MO just released their second bottling of their barrel proof that is a high rye I believe. I'm not sure if it's classified as a "high rye" honestly.
    Its called Ben Holladay Rickhouse proof. The distillery is Holladay. I recently started watching you guys at the end of last year and have been very pleased with every video I've watched. Although I feel like I can't yet call myself a "bourbon guy", I plan to buy many bottles because of you guys. I do work at the distillery I mentioned as a tour guide but I do feel like you guys would enjoy this if you haven't seen it anywhere yet.

    The white label bourbon 6 year is excellent the high Rye mash bill punches through with a touch of mint and chocolate. It's a bit reminiscent of Old Gran Dad Bonded it's very good.

  • @Anfwon
    @Anfwon ปีที่แล้ว +1

    If you go to bardstown and do the tour you will understand how they are going to be one of the most dominant players from here on out. They are one of the most transparent companies on the market. They have everything down to a science over there and have a great master distiller who worked at makers for decades.

    As always, great show Kurt and Trent. I don't have any Bardstown on my bar because of the price point for the Discovery Series, so I'm happy they're offering these for a more reasonable price. Now I just have to hope I can find them in Rhode Island because I'd like to give them a try. See you tonight for the live show!

  • @karl0318
    @karl0318 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Nice review gentlemen! This Bardstown BiB is one of the best BiBs I've ever tried! I appreciate an really good "wheater", like Old Elk and Weller Special Reserve. So I'm adding this one to my "Get-It-If-You-Can" list.

  • @TheWhiskeyNerd
    @TheWhiskeyNerd ปีที่แล้ว +1

    That Plantation Rum finish does sound lovely, but at that price point, it can be hard to justify it sometimes, especially when for the same price, you can get two (or three) really great bottles

  • @flavorsavior
    @flavorsavior ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I’m glad to see them put out something under ten a year. I’ve passed on discos because of the price point.

  • @mgrego2
    @mgrego2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    @davevogelsang6791 ปีที่แล้ว

    Love the price point on these. I picked up the Origin BIB, but held off on the White Label. I want to try the Disco 7 and 8, but hard to justify the $150 per bottle price. I’m a big Bourbon County Stout beer lover, so I did splurge and get the Bardstown Goose Island Bourbon County collaboration bottle for $170. It is only available in Illinois.

    Love the show. If I had seen this show a couple days ago I might have changed my selections this morning. Just came from a family/friends visit to Indianapolis. Yes my family are also friends. While there I picked up a bottle of Buffalo Trace and Woodford Reserve Double Oaked. We were at a Total Wine and More store and loved the great selection. Had to get the Buffalo since it is almost impossible to get here in my part of Ohio. Great show! Keep up the great content and the family connection. Didn't catch the live stream last night, but I'll watch it tonight while enjoying the Buffalo, TonyB

    Re: the higher barley content in the wheater, the 68-20-12 mash bill is the same as Larceny and Old Fitzgerald. At one time we might have suspected that this was Heaven Hill juice but my understanding is that it is Bardstown's own distillate. Keepin my eye out for these.

    Car aged! LOL..now that's funny! I actually used to always keep a bottle of Vodka in the freezer. I don't remember who started me on that but it worked for me. Again, I'm new to bourbon and I'm wondering what is the best way to break into this. Should I drink bourbon neat, with a tiny bit of water or on the rocks? Should I consider the proof or even the mash bill when making this decision. I generally don't care for mixing bourbon in cocktails because they always seem too sweet or sour to me. HELP!!! Great show again gents and looking forward to the live show tonight!

The Distillery Collection bottle I purchased at the distillery has been my favorite, but as good as it was, the $200 price tag may cause me to think twice before picking up another. These two sound promising!
