James E. Pepper 1776 Bourbon Review (and The Irishman bottle-age experiment)
ฝัง

- Rex & Daniel try a revival of one of the oldest marketed whiskeys in the U.S., and also run an experiment of a new bottle vs. a 4-year-old, half-empty bottle of the same release (for science).
Fun Facts: 1776 bourbon originally was produced in 1780 (mid-Revolution) and was popularized in the late 1800s by James E. Pepper, grandson of the original proprietor, renowned horseman/stable owner, and the man who supposedly introduced the Old Fashioned to New York City. This was also one of the first bottles of whiskey to use the "strip stamp" across the cork as a way to deter tampering and watering down, a dangerous con that was prevalent prior to the Bottled-In-Bond Act of 1897. During Prohibition, 1776 Bourbon was one of the few spirits that continued to be sold as "medicine" at roughly 6x the cost.
Big thanks to TITAN of Whiskey William Schappert for the bottle. All hail.
“I’ll go look” should become the new intro line. Classic
I'll be honest, if need be put 5 minutes of ads on the front, and for this I'll watch em twice to keep this going.
Speaking personally anything over ten minutes I just set down on the table and let play on principle. If you’re gonna sell your nutraceuticals line for an hour in a TH-cam ad go ahead. Give Google your money for no reason.
Bring on the ads. No more COVID casualties!
Save your bastard employees!!!! I’ll click on every add you guys have to help out! It’s the least we can do for these years of amazing free content!!
If you guys make a video loop for ten hours filled with ads I'll run that video overnight for the MBs.
That Titan animation....every time it just gets better and better!
WOOT! Thanks for the review you MB's... Keep up the good work... I didn't wait to try the bottle, I really liked it. That is all :)
sprayed my coffee at "ill go look"
As the titan intro between Rex and Daniel evolves, it had turned into my favorite thing on the channel.
"To lose 1/4th of your workforce is a problem" I hear that. Cheers we will watch the ads. Its worth it.
Ads yes. Keep fancy Dan employed!
“I hear things” and “I’ll go look” 😂😂😂
The 1776 Bourbon has become a new daily of mine. Loving it
Just let the ads be relevant to the channel and I am happy to take 1 min out for them :)
I'm thinking they won't have much input in the actual ads - that's all done by TH-cam.
@@ArcheryTalkVideo Yeah, I wish TH-cam would let creators match up advertisers appropriate with their content, like they let advertisers opt out of certain creator content. Or better yet, let viewers set their own preferences and the ad slot adjusts based on who is watching.
Please no political ads. Otherwise, do what you have to do. Keep the lights on and bills paid.
1776 is my favorite whiskey on the market. Well priced and great taste. Their rye is great too.
@ Carl Olsen... Went to get their Bourbon, the store was out. Remembered your comment and bought their Rye, glad they were out of the Bourbon. The Rye is an incredible value! Going back for a couple more tomorrow. Thanks for the heads up!
@@plane-o-1292 I went to total wine near me and bought 2 bottles of the regular rye and got the sherry cask version as well at $45. I hope it becomes more regularly available. But I'm glad my comment came in handy!
Better than Eagle Rare?
@@ADSCP just as good in my opinion and half the price. But maybe the price makes it taste better 🤣
I trust you all with the ads... besides, anyone who dresses like Rex can't be rolling in too much cash.
Question on the ads, is there more revenue generated if we watch the full ad, or is it the same when skipping them? Want to make sure you guys are getting the most from my inaction
I would like to know this as well
YOU GET PAID MY VIEW OR BY INTERACTION, THE LAST ONE ITS WHEN SOMEONE CLICKS DE ADD OR WATCH IT FULL, AND IT'S BETTER PAID
I am totally ok with you doing Ad's. If someone needs a paycheck, I'm all for it.
That was a good question & a good experiment 👍🏻🥃
You guys should start selling merchandise as well for some extra security
Please do anything you guys can do to save every one at your business. As a fan of not only the videos but the wizard acadamy Inknow im not the only.one who would love to help . Monetize the channel, put links in the video for donations , do what ever needed . You have a strong family base and yalls honesty and transparency is great. You have a crowd funded distillery USE THE CROWD we love you guys.
Guys, run ads, do what you gotta do. I love the channel and have learned quite a bit.
this is i think the only channel i will actively be leaving the ads to play, respect what you guys are doing for everyone during this year
Bring on the ads! don't mind at all. if LTT can have ads before the vid, at the start in the vid itself, motions of LTTstore throughout , a sponsor mention at the end and sometimes midroll or ads at the very end, you guys can turn on some ads. If there is anything else we can do please don't hesitate to let us know. I think I speak for the tribe when I say we want this thing to keep rolling and will support you as much as we possibly can. Cheers you MB's!
You guys are providing free entertainment and free information, bring on the ads, no arguments from me.
100% put that adds on ! The best TH-cam whiskey channel content deserves to be monetized!
Gotta be the best intro I’ve ever seen in my life!🤣Ending..
Cheers🥃👋🏽💀🇺🇸
TITANS OF WISKEY MUSIC.....Rex: "......What is that in the distance? " Daniel: "I'll go look!" wanders out of frame. HA! Funniest throwaway line ever!
Daniel’s excited indifference to a Titan is absolutely fantastic 😂
The 1776 rye in sherry barrels is incredible, just bought a bottle of it and it immediately became my favorite.
I believe it is from Bardstown Bourbon Company. They were doing work for James E Pepper when we toured
Just found out that yall are from Austin... This makes me so happy
Definitely a new sub
I’ll gladly watch adds to keep The Laphroaig Queen (Emma) employed!!! Also very sad it wasn’t on the wall😢
The Titan clip is definitely one of the best things I have ever seen on TH-cam! You guys are f@#$ing AMAZING! The reviews are good as well.😆
Wasnt aware that this channel was not monetized. Been watching since before I was even able to drink and recently fell back inlove with this all. Do whatever you can to stick around!
Wow. I'm just drinking this very fine bourbon, and Master Rex utters "it reminds me of Teeling". Exactly! Congratulations, I would never in my life fathomed that out.
Haven't had their Bourbon yet, but their Rye is fantastic
Best animation yet, bravo chaps
I have a special connection with that 1776 bourbon. We had picked up our 1st bottle of it the same week that my old dog passed away, so we drank through it with friends toasting my boy. Unfortunately, we don't find it often, but when we do we grab it and raise a glass to my boy.
I got sweet rolls/dessert bread on the front that has an oak body to it that rounds out. Very unique flavor. It reminds me a bit of the way a rum gets those cool, deep sugar yeast flavors almost.
Thats how you take care of your own, 100% agree
Could it be!? I'll go look. lol well played!
Add’s. No problem! Love this channel.
Sweet, thanks. Was waiting for this one 🤙🤙🤘
I will say I have had remarkably different experiences with the same whiskey between neck pour and after it opening up. Like there was no sweetness or fruit notes in the first pour but a week or so later and 2 or 3 pours it opened waaay up (happened with John J Bowman single barrel, and Baker's Single Barrel).
Would that go away when you flip the bottle once before you open it as to mix the neck with the rest?
Just a thought
@@TheHighlandSounds i think it has more to do with the amount of time (and the amount of whiskey) that has been exposed to new air and oxidized. So shaking a bottle before the first pour won't change it.
Man the titan intro never gets old. Love it
I commented on yesterday's video about being in a hotel with no whisk(e)y only having wine.
Tonight I am yet again in a hotel unexpectedly to me but..I have whisk(e)y! Its bog standard good ole Jack Daniel's but I've got it!
Cheers friends!
The Bottle Lord tune & the camera angle makes seem like we're about to on an adventure with Sir Chicken Digby Ceasar.
Just tried Pepper last month. Gotta say I was pleasantly surprised!
Once you turn on the monetization of this channel I'm starting at episode 1 and going to run through the entire catalog of videos.
I’ve been going though then all over lockdown. Shame the monetisation wasn’t on earlier
@@charlyreed7474 you will have to start them again and take more notes this time.
Adds will not stop any that watch you guys!
Super-interesting. I've always been a fan of this bourbon and it's definitely changed recently. It is WAY less rye-forward. I didn't know that they started distilling (actually I didn't realized they sourced from MGP).
Almost picked up a bottle of Pepper last week. I'll have to give it a try.
The Schap truly is a whiskey titan.
We need "Show Me The Proof" shirts for/from Rex. His top question asked per bottle!
Having some watching this. My bottle says Lexington KY.
They also produce Strong-Ale and Stout beers aged in their Rye Barrels. Very good Beers! High in ABV for beer.
Whiskey barrel finished rainwater? Your plants must love you.
Does it matter if we skip the ads, or do need to watch them through? I want to know what's best for you guys!
Ahhh, memories. Also, Irishmen! Nice and peachy.
I, for one, fully support you guys if you do adverts.
Fellas, if you make more money from unskippable ads, make em unskippable. I'll still watch just as much as I always do, I'll just take 15-30 second breaks.
Call em pour breaks.
I love the Rye. Cheers.
Finally! This is an awesome bourbon!!
The more I see the enormity of the vault the more I'd like to donate my time to the facility..I mean what's the downside..Texas weather, see Rex a lot(?), maybe Emma(:)), and whisky! Hello Daniel.
Bring on the ads, will gladly watch
Do the Rye gentleman. I Rep their brand and the Bourbon is tasty but the Rye is even better. Great video!!
You guys should do a comparison of westward American single malt and balcones Texas bock. Very similar I’ve found and both use an ale yeast!
I typically don't skip the shorter adds. From now on if it's a 10 minute add I'll go drop a deuce.
Monetize it all and the playlist shall run
Is there any benefit for us watching the entire ad? Like do you guys get more money if we watch the full ad instead of skipping?
So your saying we should turn off our ad blocker before watching The Vault.
Luv both of these expression. Always have a bottle of 1776 in the house. ?? Is you allow adds on the Tribe channel as well .. can we help 2 employees?? I'm willing. Luv this channel and community ❤️❤️
Greatest intro I've ever seen 😂
Non-chill filtered too if I’m not mistaken
The next time that Daniel forgets to wear the medallion, Fancy Dan should add it in editing....
Would it be possible to do Zoom tastings or... Twitch classes or something like that? I know some folks are doing live streamed classes. Idk about sending samples, but me thinx the community would ante up for a class.
Ads for everyone! Huzzah! No really, ads are fine! Thanks for the great reviews!
My wife and I do the same thing. "STOP STEALING MY LINE!" We also just had our anniversary on the 14th. Congrats Rex
Hey guys, sorry if this was asked already, but I haven't seen it.
You've talked about aging in Texas vs. Scotland, and the differences.
With age "rounding" out the rough edges, but the "fast" aging of Texas; what would happen if you started an aging in Texas, and let it finish slower in Scotland, or vice-versa?
Would you get more flavor, with more rounded edges...or something similar....or would it just turn to crap?
By the way, you BOTH rock, but Daniel needs to do a video in hot pink one of these days...Rex, you're just a polished flipping skipping stone,or a polished turd....not sure which, keep it up!
youtube channel I like turns on ads after four years of not only free but ad-free content? yea that's fine guys thanks for letting us know.
What would you guys want us to do with the adds to optimize the revenue?
Also, have you considered Patreon, and/or merch? Would totally support you, and buy Glencairns with your logo etc. I would love to have some option to support you through this Rona thing, if possible within your non-profit.
That intro...is this an anime now?
Awesome video. Bring on the ads
Would help if you lads could put your Patreon information on the show notes under the video. My ad blocker won't let me view your ads.
My wife just slapped me, I asked her what an illery is, she asked why and I told her there is a nudist illery opening near us and wasn't sure if we should go...
I said I won't mind ads but I pay for TH-cam premium anyway so I guess I really don't care lol. Whatever is best for the channel, I love you guys!
I been eyeing up the James E Pepper ryes lately.
Let the ads commence for the magnificent bastards and we will keep on watching. 2020 has done weirder shit haha
Guys do you not sell T shirts? To generate cash? love the channel no problems with the adds
When I saw James E. Pepper on the shelves; when it first appeared as a sourced indie re-imagined brand; it was pretty rough. Pepper was appropriate.
I like this bourbon and their rye.
Do you make more money if we watch the ads all the way through? I’d Chromecast a playlist overnight to get those revenues up
Long live Whisk[e]y Vault! Go ads.
You guys need to try their 100 proof rye
I love this intro omg XD
Im surprised you guys haven't monetized already tbh. When it comes to any sort of alcohol review channel on TH-cam a lot of people don't have the subs that you guys do.
Hmmmm....may have to hunt some down for the hubbie. 🥃
Rex says "steel trap". Yep, nothing in and nothing out. LOL
Any chance or way to “auction” off that Irishman- the original bottle? Could be a great charity raffle or used to support the Academy
If you take and keep one bottle from the vault, what would you take?
