Nice review of the category. Only caveat would be that in my experience, toasted barrels / double oaks seem to be the whiskeys that can really open up / change the most with a couple weeks of airtime. Playing field was even tonight using neck pours, but I wonder how revisiting the same lineup in 2 or 3 weeks might change the profiles and perhaps even the results?? Just a thought. Jaime jumped all over the 1910 like a pro and loved the Michters too. She's moving along on her bourbon journey !! David benefits too - the more she likes, especially bottles like Michters TB, the easier it will be to get some of those $$$ bottles with her blessing. Happy bourbon wife, happy bourbon life!
I agree. I dont like when i see ppl ranking blinds with neck pours and some half bottles. Its not a fair shake for the bottle on the neck. With all neck pours it is more fair, but still should wait til at least a good bit into the shoulder before compairing and ranking so they all have the full potential and opened up
Definitely shows tasting notes are subjective. Haven’t tried the other three but I do have ECTB and 1910 and I don’t even think it’s close. My opinion is the Elijah is head and shoulders better than the OF. I get an astringent over oak’d note from the 1910 that isn’t there for me on the ECTB.
I just realized David and Jamie . That's the old bottle of 1910 . You guys might need to run it back . In my opinion the new bottling of 1910 is even better . Try them blind on your own when you get a new one . Curious to see what you guys think .
Another great show again. love it that you show all the bloopers and blunders and don't try to hide anything. also dose Jaime want to put Maple in all the bourbons like a lot of us want to put bacon on our food???
Out of those the only one I can find locally that's not hard to find is the 1910 which I've been wanting to try for awhile, just tried a store pick up Woodford DO and sadly it didn't live up to the hype for me. Love the content David and Jaime helps keep my wife entertained with the videos as well so I definitely appreciate her involvement! Lol your content has been shaping my growing bourbon journey the past few months, seen dozens and dozens of your videos. Thank you!
Awesome review! Easily becoming one of my favorite bourbon reviewers. I’ll be headed to bardstown in eight days with a group of army friends. Any suggestions?
I've come back to watch this a year later as I just opened up my Nulu Toasted. Jamie has grown so much in this year and funnily enough, just saw the video where Jamie knocked over a glass and you knocked one in this video.
Have a couple Nulu picks down the street from me and I held off but this is making want to grab the toasted if it’s still there lol. Oh and she’s getting good!
I loved my local store's Nulu toasted rye pick so much I bought 4 at $119.99 a pop. Since then, state minimum has gone up to $139.99. They are literally pricing themselves out of the market. Who is going to buy 4-5 year old rye whiskey for $139.99, regardless of the finish? If the bourbon wasn't $119.99 as well I would have given that a shot long ago. It's just too darn expensive here. Cheers!
Finally managed to get a bottle of Nulu Toasted here in Colorado, and it’s absolutely a winner (from someone who typically prefers toasted or double-barrel bourbons and ryes). I grabbed a bottle of the French Oak ages too, so I’ll open that at some point. I hate dealing with wax-dipped corks, but whatever.
It’s funny I immediately opened my last george t stagg but i’m having a hard time deciding to open my Masters keep toasted or just selling it and getting more bottles. lol
Fun vid! Did you say $40 for the EC Toasted? Haha, what planet would that be? Let's just say for what they want in NY I'm happy it came in last. Been curious about that Nulu. I see the Straight Whiskey batch 5. Any thoughts? (can't get the Toasted here). Jamie is becoming my favorite side kick/bourbon wife. Her happy disposition is infectious and offsets your even keel/chill manner. Keep throwing shit, Jamie! 🥂
From the outside looking in, it would appear that Michter's are pricing themselves out of the market. Both M10 and Toasted have become available in my state on highly allocated and took a HUGE jump in price from state to reseller. Sadly, at these prices, I will likely not add any to my collection.
I paid $70 and agree, it’s weirdly underwhelming. It wasn’t all that much better than the standard US1 bourbon for me, and I’m pretty sure I think 1910 is a better spirit
@@EscobarStyle agreed! I don’t think they’re overhyped I just think they’re a bit overdone at this point, feel like every distillery is putting one out
Man, a whiskey bar opened by the house I lived in in 2014. I would always get the Michters Toasted Barrel. It was $12. I took a whiskey break and now I come back and its impossible to find and $400 on secondary. wth...?
Penelope makes a toasted barrel. I haven’t had anything by them but I’ve seen it on the shelf. Has anyone ventured into that. I’ve wanted the WT One but alas it’s impossible to find here in MD

So impressed with Jaime’s abilities to pick out scent and flavor! Also, thanks for already including me on the Patreon page. That was fast!

I prefer the older labeled bottle.
I just scored a bottle of Michters 10 year, I won a drawing to get a chance to buy it, I never thought I’d get one I’m stoked to try it
Another great show again. love it that you show all the bloopers and blunders and don't try to hide anything. also dose Jaime want to put Maple in all the bourbons like a lot of us want to put bacon on our food???
Forgot to mention that I have an unopened NuLu toasted that’s a barrel pick from “It’s Bourbon Night”. Definitely gonna crack that one now.
Props to Jamie for picking out the 1910. I've got one of those Nulu toasted, doubt I'll ever get my hands on your #1 & 2.
Great video! Made me want to get a Masters Keep more.
Love that you left the paper towel incident in the video.

🙌🏼 Thank you both for watching!!
Dying to find that Michter's TB or EJTB...just haven't had ANY luck on either of them. I'll keep an eye out for the NULU though. Sounded really good!
Hi from NY. Just try 1910 and elijah craig. I preferred 1910 soon a will get a nulu and give a try. great video
Big fan of the Elijah Toasted Barrel. Just purchased OF 1910 bc yall recommended it. Have to say. Yall are right it's delicious.
My heart sunk when David knocked over the glass….but I saw it coming and cringed lol. Good episode guys!
FYI Blue Note Crossroads is the same as Michters Toasted but not limited.
Think I saw you guys at Fahrenheit late last year. Keep the good content coming.
One I’d like to see against these would be Blood Oath Pact 4. One of my favorite toasted bourbons.
Replace the 1910 with a Penelope Toasted at Barrel Strength and you will give MTK1 and MTBB a run for their money. Cheers!
Jaime, you are a natural! 🤩
I want to try the Mitcher's Toasted soo much, everything they put out is amazing!
Seeing your comment is almost a year old, if you haven't tried it yet it's very very very good. Highly recommend
I just got the limited release toasted sour mash. It is very good

TW bye has 3 NuLu picks. Double Oak, Toasted and Toasted Rye and now you're making want to go get all 3.

Sir, that is insane!!! I would not pay those kind of prices for Nulu. I like it, but that is crazy talk 😂😂😂
Great episode guys. I do like my toasted bottles.
You guys are awesome. Love your channel.

Nice, glad you got one!
Great video. Look out, Jamie may need her own show!!! It’s getting harder to find any of these. Even 1910 is hit or miss now.
I see 1910 all.over the 1920 on the other hand haven't been able to find for 3 months
Just picked up a Penelope barrel strength toasted store pick. Haven't cracked it yet but can't wait. Haven't been able to get a Mitchers yet.
I wonder how would WR Double Oaked do alone with all these…?
Great content. Enjoyed watching 👍🥃
I'm going to do a true double oaked double blind soon!
Husband and I new to your channel. OMG love. So fun to watch. Thanks for doing these videos👏👏
Welcome to our channel Laura! So glad to have you both 😊
It’s funny I immediately opened my last george t stagg but i’m having a hard time deciding to open my Masters keep toasted or just selling it and getting more bottles. lol
Just open it with some friends, it’s fantastic stuff that deserves to be shared. IMO one of my favorite releases from last year
Nice video I never had any toasted bourbon yet.
Great lineup… great video.. that 1910 is hard to beat!
Jamie's paper towel toss 😂
Great, great review! Been waiting for you to do this one. Cheers from Sweden! 🇸🇪

Thank you so much for the sweet compliment!! I’ve really grown to love the bourbon community! You all are awesome!
I have to get me a Nulu. I have all the others. Great battle choice.
Great blind 👏🥃
Jamie said "and I'll let you", My wife let's me buy bourbon too! 😆 🤣 😂
Jaime will be knocking back some spicy cask strength bourbons one day and reminiscing about when she like flavored whiskey 😆
I found a single bottle of Elijah in Lavonia Georgia a couple days ago. $100. Knew it was overpriced but bought it anyway.
People rave about ECTB and I got one bottle last year very unimpressed. Gave it away didn’t even bother doing a review on it. 1910 is far superior
Toasted episode, nailed it!😂
I just got the michters limited release toasted sour mash for $100. Its pretty damn good. Idk if id put it over the 1910, but still at the neck pour
Jaime is an awesome wife. Solid video as always, bud.
Thank you so much for your support!
Great video! So, it was the 1910 you spilled? Trying to decide how horrified to be.
I was HORRIFIED.. trying to decide what Davids punishment should be 🤷🏼♀️😳😆😂
The last few times, I had a nightcap of the 1910 or the Woodford Reserve DO, I wake up during the night, dying of thirst.

OF 1910 is sooo damn good. Just picked up a Nulu toasted which is also awesome.
best video ever thanks .
I wasnt blown away with the Mitchers toasted. AND I paid secondary here in the state. 🤦🏻♂️ now it’s collecting dust
I paid $70 and agree, it’s weirdly underwhelming. It wasn’t all that much better than the standard US1 bourbon for me, and I’m pretty sure I think 1910 is a better spirit
@@mattb6617 I compared it to the EC toasted and it was SLIGHTLY better but not by much. Toasted barrels might be over hyped in my opinion 🤷🏻♂️
I'd love to take it off your hands!
@@EscobarStyle agreed! I don’t think they’re overhyped I just think they’re a bit overdone at this point, feel like every distillery is putting one out
@@mattb6617 definitely! AND everything is “limited edition” now which everyone boost up their price 🤦🏻♂️
Angels envy rye in rum cask is a maple bomb
Ohhhh nooooo. Don't spill it....ouch!
Geez, at least when Jaime knocks over a Glen it's empty.😊
RIGHT!! Lol
Has Jamie tried a bourbon Maple Old Fashioned? If not sub the sugar for Maple syrup. Enjoy!
We haven't got a shot of Jaime's shelf recently. How do we know if it's not filled with sweet / flavored whiskeys anymore?
Have you guys tried Widow Jane Decadence. It's aged in Maple barrels. Really good. 😋
Nothing more beautiful than a lovely lady adoring her man! Luv you guys!!
1910 one of the best noses out there
Man, a whiskey bar opened by the house I lived in in 2014. I would always get the Michters Toasted Barrel. It was $12. I took a whiskey break and now I come back and its impossible to find and $400 on secondary. wth...?
Great stuff 👍
I need to find the NULU in Portland Oregon i have not had much toasted barrel .
Nulu for the win!
Great vid, keep jaime
nulu is $125 a bottle here would loveto get it for $70
Love the video! But you say "alittle bit" alittle bit to much. Still so much fun to watch.
It would have been nice to have a enter link to your giveaway from here.
I rove Nuru!
Does Woodford Double Oak count as a toasted barrel?
Yes
Wooo
Penelope makes a toasted barrel. I haven’t had anything by them but I’ve seen it on the shelf. Has anyone ventured into that. I’ve wanted the WT One but alas it’s impossible to find here in MD
I have. I think it is great but it is the most extreme char I’ve ever experienced it is super unique.. I’d def say try before you buy if you can
5 seconds in , money is on 1910 . Atleast top 2 .
In my blind it would be 🏆
@@Beyondwhiskeyrow - I'm with yah Jamie !
woodford double oaked??? its only the most popular by farrrr lol
No Basil?
'Bleach' often... LOL😆
why do you always have a jacket on. ?? Must be cold at the bar(:
But David, why didn’t you put Basil Hayden’s Toast in the blind?….. I kid, I kid 🤦♂️
Your review of each one verse ranking makes no sense lol
