Great review once again. I know a lot of people really enjoy KC Bourbon, but it has not been something for me. I was interested to see if the Ryes were different. Mary had a good idea. When you have a planned review, perhaps have a simple cocktail using it at the end. Old Fashioned or Manhattan or even a highball. Keep up the great work and good luck in Temecula
Thanks! We have another rye review planned for a Monday video so I will have a cocktail ready to go. Thanks again for the support. I have you down for 3 more entries in June. This brings your total up to 7 entries. Best of luck.
@@whiskeyisajourney I can be very wordy! Lol! Sorry! I am so happy to help a bit and to connect with you both!! You and Mary-Bridgette rock!! Have an awesome day!! 🙂
Genetic and environmental! It's amazing what kids pick up! My aunt could not tell her left from right and when I'd say, "Aunty take a right" when she was driving, yikes, we sometimes went left!! Lol! She would have to look at her right hand and left and take in which way to go. So interesting! I'm such a nerd - info geek!! This is a super fabulous video! I like the Knob Creek on the right, on Mary Bridgette's side! In addition to being a peat head with scotch I love a good spicy rye!! Pine, mint, herbal, ginger, pepper and proofy!! Oh and dill!! Hey Mary Bridgette you hair looks fabulous! Did you have it done?! Love the look! I like the Knob Creek on the right!! I typically prefer a 95/5 or 100% rye with a higher ABV but this one is a beauty, even at just 51 rye or so! Yes I did get the Maple Mary Bridgette on the left hand Knob Creek! I am all in for the 7 year old!!! Cheers you too! Fabulous video! I'm all in for spicey dill Love you guys!! 🙂Hey I love the idea of a drinking game!! Every Time We Say Cocktail!! Mary Bridgette and I are choosing the same one!! I didn't use water in either expression. 3.3 on the 7! 3.0 on the 10!! 🙂I agree - they are what I would reach for!! Wow 400 bottes!! There is something to be said for delicious whisky! Lol! Hey don't worry about the Temecula competition! You will ace Riverside! Oh do I wish I could be there to cheer you all on - and have brisket and burnt ends!! I love them - with a peated scotch. I admire you all for taking part and competing!! Oh no to the blown tire. Fire? What the heck? Oh my goodness - what a trip. My father-in-law was a fire captain when he retired - we always gave well working fire extinguishers for gifts!! I love you stories!! I am relieved you all survived the weekend!! Lol!! 🙂You placed in brisket!!! Awww sounds like a lovely Father's Day for John!!! Love Bardstown and I see there is a new Barrel Mizunara cask!! Yay!! Barrel is a huge fave!! 🙂
Hopefully when you are driving with your aunt you are not on steep mountain roads. One wrong turn would be bad. I am not a big rye fan, but we have a few rye videos coming out over the next few weeks and I am still trying to get her to do the Lagavulin video July 8th. Fingers crossed. I have way too many bottles. That is why I started to do the giveaway. Time to thin out the collection and STOP buying. Riverside here we come! Cheers!
You have a very sophisticated palette it sounds like. We are on opposite ends of the spectrum! But that's why bottlers make things that taste different, right? Thanks for the hair compliment. Nothing different other than I didn't straighten it. I have naturally curly hair, and monsoon season is among us in Phoenix. The humidity has shot up, so there is no sense in straightening my hair if it's just going to curl as soon as I walk outside anyway! Giving a fire extinguisher as a gift is a good idea. It's not something people typically buy for themselves. Although, they expire after a certain amount of time. We learned that from the fire inspector at the barbecue competition. I guess ours was last years model! 🤣🤣🤣 Cheers!
@@mary-bridgetfasciano9970 My palette has evolved over a long while! It's fun experiencing that! I have naturally curly hair too and it's very humid today in Vancouver so I have extra curls! Lol! Stay cool!! Love your reply!! Thanks so much!! Hugely appreciated!! I hope the next BBQ competition is fabulous!! Yummm!! 🙂
Wow never had the 7 but in a blind knob 10 beat out a wilderness trail rye SIB, Hughes Belle of Bedford Sib, and Bulliet 12 year. I loved it. Not as good as Old Overholt 10 cask but I was surprised how good it was to me.
You are the 2nd person that mentioned Old Overholt 10 CS. I have never seen it in my area. I do see regular releases of the Old Overholt but not the CS. I will keep an eye out for that one. Based on what people are saying I need to get it. Cheers!
i LOL at the right and left, my better half struggles with the left and right, she will say turn right but mean left, can get annoying when you are in a city centre lol. cheers
I'm a fan of Knob creek and a big rye drinker so I will pick up the 10 year but I understand your opinion on these. And hopefully you do better and yes it's a BBQ click and it’s the same everywhere across the country. Enjoy!! Yeah tire fires can be tricky water is the preferred method to fight them. Dry chemical extinguishers aren't great unless you have a big one over 60 pounder.
Yep, your correct. My wife does the same and sometimes I tease with saying, your other right. When I ask her which way is north, she says whatever way she is facing is north. 😊
Sounds like we are in the same boat with directions. North, South, East and West along with right and left. She gets it, it just takes a little time. Cheers!
I'm so happy to hear that it's not just my family with the right, left mix-up. It really is a female thing! My husband tells me "your other right" as well! Thanks for helping us out! Cheers!
Nice review! I have the 7yr and I like it alright. Probably skip on the 10yr because I have a Knob Creek 115 proof store pick that’s really nice. As always chaos like that provides long term memories:) Cheers!
So true! It's these types of situations that create long lasting memories. I'm sure my daughter will tell this story to her children, if she decides she wants to have any, as one of her childhood Father's Day memories. It wasn't funny when it happened, but I'm sure it will be at some point when it gets retold. It will become a fish story! Maybe by the time she has kids, the story will be that the whole trailer caught fire! 🤣Cheers!
Stumbled upon KC 10yr Rye at Total Wine when I stopped in a few weeks ago to get a jar of cocktail cherries and snatched it right up since I had never seen that old of an age statement on their rye. I liked it better than both of you, but I agree that it wasn't as good as it could have been given how much I generally enjoy Beam products.
I enjoyed it more the first time we had it. I got red apple skin notes on the finish that I really enjoyed the first time, but it was absent during this review. Maybe it will come back the next time I have it and I'll like it more. Cheers.
I just had the 7 year and what I’m finding out is 7 yrs is my bourbon sweet spot. Anything older it’s pushing the wood oak note that I’m not too big a fan of.
I give directions based on N-S-E-W because I trip over right-left. It's a thing. I think the Knob Creeks crush in cocktails! I pick other labels for sippers. I am super happy with the 7 year rye and seeing that I recently found a 750 ml on sale for $20, makes me even happier. Cheers! 🥃
Thanks for sharing. This makes me feel so much better knowing it's other women as well. I wonder if there's research out there that supports why some women have difficulty with this? It would be interesting to know. It's got to be about how our brains process information. I'm going to look into it and see if I can find some research! Cheers!
I will be doing a Monday review of the Bardstown in August and probable a First Friday Flight Fight in September if I can get 2 other bottles from them by the time September rolls around. Cheers!
Thank you for the review. I am not a big fan of KBs regular rye, so I'll certainly skip the 10 year. Regarding Bardstown, i would love your opinion of the Foursquare. So far I have enjoyed all of their offerings, especially the Discovery 11...if you ignore the price tag😂. Cheers!
Review of the Bardstown coming up in August and a First Friday Flight Fight in September if I can get 2 more bottles this weekend when we are in Riverside. Cheers!
Kudos to you Mary Bridget. Welcome to the ranks of the American Rye drinkers. As enthusiastic a rye person as I am, the Knob Creek (Jim Beam) peanutty/dusty nose and palate has always been a turn off for me. The Bardstown BiB Origin Series Wheated is a keeper..!!!
Well, don't pull up the welcome Wagon just yet. Like I said in the video, it's not one I would pull off the shelf to drink, give a choice. But, I also didn't hate it either. However, I am excited to try it in an Old Fashion. Cheers!
The old overholt cask strength 10 year rye (Jim beam rye product) is very good. This year I think they are doing a 12 year old overholt cs. 2 bad the kc 7 & 10 years aren't hitters.
I thought I liked them more the first time I had them, but I was disappointed that they did not hold up on the second tasting. Oh well. I will be on the lookout for the Old Overholt CS. Cheers!
Delinquent teenage boy that's dead inside. She went downhill quickly lol. 400 bottles?!? gotta get those numbers up ;) BBQ Cult lol. Bardstown also doesn't distribute in CT, every time I go into NY, I check for it.
I am heading back to Riverside tomorrow and I am going to see if I can pick up more Bardstown or anything else that I don't get in AZ. I have to up my numbers up! Cheers!
I couldn't think of the KC maple. I knew there was a bottle at 90. I just couldn't think that fast. Thanks for the information. I appreciate it. Cheers!

This is very generous of you. My sister and I appreciate the support and all the comments on the videos.

We men be saying righty tighty ,lefty loosey about a dozen times a day to ourselves.
🤣🤣🤣 I say that too then I have to screw something in! It totally helps.....one you figure out which way is left and which way is right! 🤣
when i first said that to my lass, she was amazed! as if id said something very deep haha
I really enjoyed your short soliloquy on your barbecue adventure. I have the 10 year rye. Going to have to give it a try.
Check back in and let me know what you think of it. See you get red apple skins on the finish. Cheers!

I need to pay attention to that the next time I have age stated bourbons. See if I have a preference. Cheers!

The Bardstown origin series area really nice inexpensive pours! The Four Square collaboration is a little pricey but I enjoy it on occasion! Cheers!

There are actual disorders associated with right left confusion. It's worth looking into.
That will make my sister happy to know that
Great video!
Thanks! Cheers.
I struggle with yesterday and tomorrow like it's some sort of temporal dyslexia.
Has that always been the case or is age involved? I've noticed a drop in certain cognitive tasks over the past year or so. Getting older sucks.
Interesting! I've never heard that before. I wonder if that is also common. 🤔
The old overholt cask strength 10 year rye (Jim beam rye product) is very good. This year I think they are doing a 12 year old overholt cs. 2 bad the kc 7 & 10 years aren't hitters.

kc smoked maple is 90, some of the ryes had cask strength that was 119.6 or so proof, rye store picks 115 proof...
I couldn't think of the KC maple. I knew there was a bottle at 90. I just couldn't think that fast. Thanks for the information. I appreciate it. Cheers!
❤🎉
Thanks sister!
I love nuts… 😂😂
No judgement here. 😜
