Yeah if im out looking its basically never for buffalo trace products. I just find most of their stuff very lacking in comparison to most of the stuff on the shelf, and benchmark fullproof smokes most of the harder to get bt stuff anyway
I really like that you hunt out small distilleries. These are whiskies that everyday people can actually come across, and your reviews are helping me decide which ones to pick up.
Worth a note. In Atlanta you have Five Points, which is downtown and sketchy and not a place to be after dark, and you have Little Five Points which is kinda hipster and quirky and can be a fun hangout place. Mixing up the two can lead to some ... interesting moments.
When budget permits, you should come to South Africa. There isn’t a lot of SA whisky but there are a few like Bain’s Cape Mountain or Limpopo Reserve. Plus beyond whisky it’ll make a fantastic holiday for your family. Bains is from the Cape Town area and Limpopo Reserve is from close to Kruger National Park, which is where everyone goes when they come to SA
Thank you for supporting small operations!! This is the kind of enthusiasm I hope for the Arizona wine and liquor industry we have here. You have my comment and like.
New southern revival is good stuff made in Charleston SC. The distillery literally brought back a type of corn called Jimmy red corn (grown in the low country) back from almost extinction and began distilling the grain once they had enough yield. Jimmy red corn used to be used to make whiskey in the past and is now back. Very good and unique pour
@@Ticonderous1 That may be but you have to remember $100 AUD is equivalent to about $66 USD, we're talking the equivalent of spending about $151 AUD on one bottle at the $100 USD mark. The prices over there are also likely higher due to transportation and import tariffs.
Love what you are doing. I’m new to the bourbon world. You have definitely inspired me and I’m learning as much as can from you. If you ever want to come Chipley fl just north of Panama City let me know. Keep up the hard work.
You were close to Elemental, which is a cool shop that doles out their allocations fairly (announced in advance, first-come first-serve) and does a good job of having interesting stuff for a small shop. Also close to Greene’s is Pitch & Putt. It’s a *tiny* shop that punches above their weight. They get Wellers, Eagle Rare and a ton of hard-to-get stuff. They’re actually reasonable for daily-driver bourbon but can get pricy on the truly hard-to-find issues. Cheers!
Enjoyed the video. I've been to Elemental a couple times, neat shop. I understand why you picked up and put down the MGP Tumbling Dice, but I think that's a great bottle. I have or had 5 of their store pick Tumbling Dice bottles. Its a good one. Keep it up brother.
Milam sources, if you in central TX, you need to do the run from San Antonio to Hye, reverse, you have Garrison but then going down 281 S you hit Andalusia, then further south, you have Milam but across the street is Real Ale and they do a few whiskeys, then further south, you might want to bypass Rebecca Creek, but in San Antonio you have Ranger Creek, they do a few stellar whiskeys, they do bourbons in large and small cask, a rye, and a mesquite smoked single malt, plus some distillery only releases
I know this is way out of the way for you, but if you ever get an opportunity, try Driftless Glen. They’re a small distillery in Baraboo, Wisconsin. Other good choices from J Henry & Sons Bourbon and Limousin Rye.
Revival is making some good juice out of South Carolina. Yeah I agree with you about Tower its hard to get a rapport with someone. They have a great selection.
New South revival is here in my city of Charleston, SC. Yes the distill their own product. If I may recommend one, their Jimmy red Corn! It’s a young bourbon, however it’s an organic nearly extinct corn that was brought back by local farms here and it’s what they use in their product! Peanut brittle and honey. They are pricey, but unique and delicious.
If you’re ever in Texas, I suggest MKT Red Lantern Bourbon. Small distillery out of Katy, TX. Rich, sweet, but still very complex. And a part of every sale goes to charity, great distillery and very very good bourbon at an affordable price. Paid around $45 in Houston TX at Total Wine.
I AM cracking up every time you say you are over budget and still have more places to go. I do the same thing all the time. You have great content and i love the exposure to the small guys getting it done. Keep it coming my man!
around your 14:50 mark, you ask about "New South Revival". That is a grain to glass/farm to flask 100% Jimmy Red Corn Whiskey out of Charleston, SC. We just picked a barrel 2 weeks ago, and they celebrate their 10th year this weekend. They are releasing their first BiB this fall, and they make incredible 100% corn and 100% Rye. If you trust Julian Van Winkle, he liked it so much that he sent for a sample of the distillate to run through their machines in Kentucky. He couldn't believe the flavors they could impart with a single grain. If you like cool whiskey, I hope you don't pass it by next time. Consider getting some of the later batches as they began blending some older whiskey in the that same label you saw. Enjoyed the video!
Would love to see Leiper’s Fork bottled in bond make a feature on the channel. Farm to bottle, cool stuff going on over there. Haven’t tried it myself but planning a trip to the distillery soon.
Next time you are in town give My Friend's Bottle Shop a try. They are a little closer to the stadiums/downtown and dont charge above MSRP however allocated is handled through the rewards system. They do some store picks that you might be in to that are easy to get your hands on. The staff is top tier, very friendly and helpful.
You gotta try Myer Farm Distillers from western NY. Hard to beat their John Myer New York Straight Bourbon Whiskey - Single Barrel. Notes of black pepper and cherry blossom on the nose; lemon verbena and fresh-rolled barley on a plush velvet mouth-feel; red raspberry and a rich butter caramel finish. What more do you want?
It's som much better when a trend begins and it leads to social networking everywhere you go! It is so easy to start and carry on a conversation in the BOURBON aisles or with staff at local stores and stores you visit when you travel. Lot of great AMERICANS still around!
Love your channel! I honestly was not that into bourbon until I started watching your channel. Funny enough I live in KY and my sister had her wedding at Buffalo Trace. Thanks for the good content. I had some crazy shit happen to me in Atlanta also like 2 years ago, I witnessed a robbery lol pretty crazy.
Just got back from The Kentucky Bourbon Trial. Did Woodford Reserve, Castle and Key, Buffalo Trace, Whiskey Thief, Angels Envy and Evan Williams. On the way out of town, spur of the moment, we stopped off at Bluegrass Distillery on Lexington on the way to the airport to kill some time. Really small operation, super cool employees, super cool story and really good bourbon. Our favorite stop for the whole weekend by far!
A shame that tower didn't make a bigger impact. Living in ATL, I've learned that Tower is the place for allocations. Especially on black friday, where people camp out for msrp selections of about 25 different allocated bourbons. Everything that's hard to get, they get their hands on
East Rome beverage in Rome ga is good spot to check for allocation they have all in corner some in boxes for decent price lots left in box for u to go thru.
Found you in the channel just a couple of days ago and think I’ve watched most all of the bourbon hunting videos. I’m pretty sure if you don’t have it already we need a shirt with, “I need to be more selective” on it. Lol
Revival…You missed a small distillery opportunity. We visited High Wire Distillery in Charleston, SC last week. They use Jimmy Red Corn instead of Yellow Dent. interesting story. The Jimmy Red Classic’s mash bill is 100% Jimmy Red corn.
Love what you do man, Im from Fairfield,IL store over here has everything even pappy & wellers full proof, but marked way way up, but if you ever get around Effingham,IL good stuff around there if you look some, good pours in the bar/restaurants, stay safe & have a great day.
Next time you're out in GA stop by Minks Package on the north end of the city, nicer area of town and really great selection, including barrel picks (I'm not enough of a bourbon guy to remember any specifics, but their scotch selection is top notch)
Greetings from the Left Coast! Enjoyed the vid. Since you’re asking for suggestions, give our Pipe Dream from Redwood Empire a pour before it’s $70/bottle. Curious what you think…. Keep up the fine work.
Green's only does random bourbon drops during the week anymore. They used to do raffles but its almost impossible to get anything these days from them unless you are lucky. Elementals prices are high but they are a very small shop. One of my favorites here.
Nice to see you hunting in my area. Good call about going around at night. I live in the 'burbs of the ATL and I avoid the city as much as posdible. That's some craziness at the hotel!!
I think that New Southern Revival from High Wire Distilling in Charleston SC was their rye, but if you ever see their Jimmy Red straight bourbon, definitely worth picking up. Excellent bourbon and their use of Jimmy Red corn is a great story.
Shout out to that woman for knowing her stuff. True connoisseur behind the counter.
You should check out Sprayberry Bottle Shop in Marietta, GA. You will be pleased with their selection.
Brewzle…you are a national treasure!
this is a fact
*International treasure
Exactly
Agreed 👍
My favorite part is when someone says they're looking for the harder to find stuff. Then they just name buffalo trace products. 😂
Can't find any of their products near me in FL
Yeah if im out looking its basically never for buffalo trace products. I just find most of their stuff very lacking in comparison to most of the stuff on the shelf, and benchmark fullproof smokes most of the harder to get bt stuff anyway
In the West, it is hard to find anything Buffalo Trace, so I get where these guys are coming from
They are fucking good though.
@@craigstuckey319 just most of them are just ok.

If I had the chance to Bourbon hunt with you, I would buy lunch, or at least let you pick the restaurant. Great video.
yeah that guy had some plans he wasn't willing to state on camera to skip out on lunch and bourbon hunting like that.
Everything Leopold Bros. makes is amazing! Their distillery tour is the best I've ever been on...worth a trip to Denver alone!
Live not a mile away from them and agree. They have tapped into gold and are just making incredible spirits.
Man, any bottle over $100 gets hard to justify. I rather have 2-3 bottles when spending $100-150.
Facts I'm not doing it anymore
I just buy $10 101 proof and mix it
In Australia , any bottle worth a taste is over $100 ...

13th Colony Southern Bourbon is delicious! Try 3 drops of water per 1 ounce. Flavors are magnified and balanced.

Georgia is an underrated place to hunt whiskey. Great video. Be safe
i'd personally rather buy some lower end bottles (wt101, EW BIB, etc) than a higher priced bottle.

Gotta check out Moonrise Distillery in Clayton, GA. Cool little operation up in the mountains!
Wish I had known you were in Atlanta! I could have recommended some great spots. Next time you're in the ATL you HAVE to eat at Fox Bros BBQ.
I'm Active Duty Navy and spend a good amount of time at NAS Fallon Nevada. I've always enjoyed getting some Frey Ranch when I make trips out.
Thank kings county barrel strength was so good
Sprayberry bottle shop.. Other than that the markup get real and good luck with allocated bottles
I drive a truck for Walmart out of Arizona and have been to our Walmart DC in Opelika a few times this year. It's beautiful out there!
Oh my! You’re at Greens? Nooooooo! There were so many others. A little short drive but worth your time.
If you ever make it down to Colorado you've gotta run by Pueblo.
We have (or at least had at one point) the most liquor stores in the nation.

Opelika! Hey i grew up near there in Columbus/Phenix City
ASW and Old Fourth are still mostly putting out finished MGP juice. Might be good, but I wont touch them until they are putting out their own stuff.

Dude. The family traveled to Florida this last week and motivated me to hit spots on the way back to NE. Keep them coming.
Just got a Bulleit store barrel pick in Maryland. I am truly impressed how good it is. Esp at $60. Amazing!!!
Good call staying off the Watershed apple brandy barrel. It was a big let down for me. Hopefully the 6yr and BiB are good to you.
Mac's in midtown ATL is a must. Got some eagle rare last week for pretty much MSRP!

I’m a new viewer and newer bourbon lover too. These videos are awesome. Thank you for posting these!
Watershed is a few hours away from me, I got a employee pick barrel a few months back, good stuff.
You will not be disappointed with the watershed. I've got both barrel proof bottles they sell and they are amazing

Been wanting to try the Fiddlers. Haven't seen it down here in Central Florida, but I do have a trip to Savannah coming up in a couple of weeks
Awesome video. Love the hunting videos and commentary.
Great video! Really enjoying these
East Rome beverage in Rome ga is good spot to check for allocation they have all in corner some in boxes for decent price lots left in box for u to go thru.
Luca Mariano is a solid choice if you find it. Not sure what states it is in, but I saw it in Kansas last.
If you’re ever back in Georgia, try Lazy Guy Distillery in Kennesaw
Two great MN Ryes: Studio Distilling Rye & Rocknar Maryland-Style Rye.
At 19:18 this just cracked me up. Glad I watched the whole video. I've had similar experiences in Atlanta. Stay safe.
2nd store, I saw an Old Pepper barrel select rye - those tend to be VERY good
was so happy when you grabbed the old fourth, Greens had a barrel pick of it that i still have little bit left of and its fantastic.
Love your stuff and I’ll continue to tell my friends about you.
Im in the uk for the next 3 weeks whiskey hunting found some i never had jw kelly kentucky straight bourbon 94 proof batch 1 really nice
Traverse City Whisky Company Barrel Proof Rye is top notch. I haven’t tried their barrel proof bourbon yet but it’s in my liquor cabinet.
Tumblin Dice, Red label....great stuff. Yea, it's MGP, but anything from Proof and Wood (mark on rear label) is going to be outstanding.
Hunting is part of the fun that feeling when you score something you have been researching and looking for is amazing

I like watching Brewzle bourbon hunt almost as much as I enjoy bourbon hunting myself! Easier on my budget for sure!
Leopold Bros is great, see if you can get a hold of a bottle of their collaboration whiskey with George Dickel.
Highbank Distillery in Columbus OH has some great picks,
I’m from Atlanta I’m going to put a list together of places you should visit. The outskirts are better.

Blessings hopefully you had fun here

Talk to Steeple Ridge out of Iowa. They are a true field to bottle and make some delicious juice.
Dread River is an awesome distillery out of Birmingham
Watching this on my lunch break
Old Soul and Cat Head from Mississippi might be a good choice and Old Soul seems to have decent Distibution
