- A pretty interesting experimental line from Maker's which involves multiple types of staves used in a single aging run.
Big thanks to the new Patron Saint of Whiskey, Michael Schneider for the bottle. Praise be!
I feel so honored to be promoted, and thank you for the reviews over the past week. I hope y'all down in TX had a great time yesterday at the Ball. I will be there next year!
Congratulations on your installment Patron Saint.
The legend himself
Please do a review of your all-time favorite whiskey and bourbon, regardless of the price range; the very best of the best. I’m talking about the ones that you guys (as advanced whiskey and bourbon connoisseurs) absolutely couldn’t do without, and believe to be the most sublime (according to your personal preferences, obviously). Again, I’m interested in your personal opinions, and not the results of some magnificently popular survey somewhere.
Makers is my favorite bourbon! I love seeing that they are coming out with more special edition bottlings.
Anyone else feeling like we need to see a Glencairn "hand bell" orchestra?
That reminds me of the heresies kisses Christmas bell commercial
I've got a fever. And the only cure is more Glencairn hand bells.
This was released in KY everywhere with the name Generations of Proof. Great packaging and presentation from Maker's. Delicious whisky
I always liked the ending of the Titan video because it reminds me of an old Pink Floyd song from the 60s. The lyric that jumps to mind is: knowledge of love is Knowledge of shadow, love is the shadow that ripens the wine.
I was watching one of your videos during my lunch break the other day and got halfway thru the “titan of whiskey segment” (low budget version..) before I had to pause it and walk into a meeting with my boss. I slipped the phone onto my picket and started hosting the meeting when my phone unpaused itself and proceeded to play the rest of the low budget “titan of whiskey” reel. After much explanation about who the heck these magnificent bastards were we all had a good laugh. I’m pretty sure your Chanel gained a few new followers that day. I appreciate you guys! Cheers.
Good Morning Magnificent Bastards! Any significant hangovers this morning?
I mean, you COULD get that trio pack at costco... Last Christmas. If anybody has a time machine let me know because the Rob Samuels was fantastic.
I want your Costco
I finished my mini bottle too quickly, I miss it.
Bought a 46 and private select from a local store (Aquistapaces in Slidell, LA) for my brother for Christmas this year. Hoping it's a good mix.
They did this for two years and I was lucky enough to grab both! Damn good whiskey!
Way back when I worked at a bakery in Atlanta GA, I was making something with bourbon and asked the boss to go next door to the bar and get makers for me to use. She asked why it had to be makers mark specifically, there’s no difference in taste of bourbons. I told her yes there is and I needed that flavor profile. She proceeded to bring 6 glasses of whiskey from the bar and told me to pick out the makers. I did it from the nose alone. 🤣 She was not happy I was right
Maker's is the bourbon that made me love whisk(e)y, so I'm always excited when it comes up in a review.
Slowly working through my bottle. It won my personal 2020 blind tasting for my whiskey of the year.
That has been my all time favorite! It’s fantastic- the Rob Samuels barrel. Like Xmas cookies.
Baked staves, Seared staves, Spiced staves sounds like a three course meal for a termite. 😃
I love Makers Mark wood stave finished bottles. I have had a few store special orders that were great!
To the question you asked of the Tribe: I prefer ribeyes and t-bones
Rob Samuels is a crazy interesting dude. Got stories galore, including meeting the Unibomber early on.
This trio pack I've seen at a bunch of stores now. I know it was originally released at Costco first, but it's not limited anymore.
Yes! That was a great trio. Whish I would of stocked up, It went fast at my Costco.
Wow the handbell thing took me back in time 🤣
That was good technique, as I recall
Shock collars! They are harmless, but definitely adds some drama to a contest.
Isn't that whiskey more a Maker's Mark 46 than a regular Maker's Mark? I say it for how the bottle looks. Nice review guys!
The Bourbon Junkies Stroke Wagon arrived this past weekend and Daniel and Rex hopped on. Yea HAW!! Also, I would use the Maker's 101 for a closer flavor and proof comparison, or maybe a cask str 46.
As far as stakes for the guess the proof it could be a whip cream pie but not just any whip cream…. A fine cool whip blended with shots of Wild Turkey 101.
So, what you're saying is that the ending of the Titan's video is the Event Horizon falling into the Black Hole that is the Entrance to the Journey of Whisk(e)y Discovery?
Damn. That deep, man.
It’s the Laphroaig showcase on the back wall…
Guys, I'm hearing the Costco trio includes 46 Cask Strength, a limited edition, not just the standard 46. You've gotta review it! Would have a been a perfect comparison for this Private Selection, actually.
They atually did review the makers 46 cast strength a little while back. I donated the bottle
@@meesternibbles Woah you're right! Many thanks ya MB
I am pretty sure the 46 in the trio pack is 46 cask strength, therefore still in need of a review. The 46 cask strength is one of my favorite new releases.
They have reviewed the cask strength, I donated the bottle myself.
I have the samuels in a throw away pile lol. I do like the 46 cask the best
GOOD EVENING YOU MB'S.... 🥃
Stakes: if Rex loses he shaves his head, if Daniel loses he grows his hair out
Man...can't get whisky at my local Costco anymore.
Did try Maker's 101 which was insanely good.
you guys haven't done a Cragganmore 12 review before!! one of the 6 classic malts! consider doing next? :D
Stakes are required drinking of budget Canadian whiskeys, volume determined by how much you miss by
The Private Selections are some of my favorite, commonly available bourbons. Just an outstanding taste at an acceptable price for me. A better comp is the Maker's 46.
In Australia the "Classic" Maker's is watered down to 40%
Love the steaks idea. I say start with a ribeye or porterhouse. Both should pair great with whiskey.
You are just like the grocery store. The cheapest brands are on the top or bottom. Just food for thought. You have been programed.!!
I have been schooled in the mysteries of whisk[e]y-related astrophysics. 🥃🥃🥃
The stakes? Ghost pepper infused Silly Goose shots would really motivate people.
Or Malort.
I miss when this channel reviewed scotches
Thank you
Did I hear Rex making old man noises as he retrieved that Maker's Mark bottle?
MALORT! Furthest away from actual proof for each whiskey takes a sip of Malort
Ghostbusters ESP Test stakes. Briana in the Dr Venkman seat.
Cheers MB's!
Marks life
So I was watching You Season 3 on Netflix and they joked that some hippie winery 3-D printed their wine barrels. My brain exploded with whiskey nerd knowledge thanks to your channel. So if you had to 3-D print barrels, how would one go about aging the spirit? Is there a workaround?
Stakes for guess the proof game. Hook up a TENS device and crank the power to 11. First contestant to 3 wrong guesses gets fried.
When it comes to steaks I prefer a good mid-rare ribeye, but strip steak or a sirloin are good choices too...
Steak Stakes? Or... a glass of desired whiskey at their time of choosing (in another episode) like Macallan M or of similar status.
I hate the TH-cam bodily harm limit thing. Not that I want to see people hurt, but it would be helpful from a safety standpoint to be able to see things related to machine accidents in order to better understand the specific dangers.
Welcome to Monday. How was the party? We are jealous. Enjoy this episode. We get the full walkabout on this one. Ok stakes, loser pays for a steak dinner. Now I am hungry.
Porterhouse. That's the problem with a visual medium and homonyms.
New York strip steak if win, and You have to strip in the middle of New York if you lose.
I love you, whisky Shanes!
Stakes. Loser shaves his eyebrows. Winner draws in the new ones.
Yep checks out, closed captioning auto corrected "steal you lover's heart," to "steal your liver's socks."
Here is the game: Steaks vs stakes. Prize of wagyu or a special milkshake created by the editor.
Stakes for a guess the proof game? What about Steaks? Put a slab of A5 Wagyu Steak on the line
Instead of doing just one tribe episode where it is "Guess the proof" you can do a series of questions like "Guess the proof", "Guess the age", "Guess the distillery", "Is it MGP or craft" in some sort of Chintzy price-is-right style game show that is so absurdly complex to understand that nobody bothers trying to understand it.
It’s delicious 🤤🤪
The stakes… are slaps with steaks.
dropping the toilet is the stakes
Daniel and handbells. There’s a story there.
Guess, from past church life.
OK so the pie thing is good. Rex. Hear me out.
MEAT FOAM.
Meat, water, egg whites, food processor. Feel free to improvise, like a few jalapenos, or a scotch bonnet if you feel like really upping the ante
I SO wish Costco in Ontario sold whisky. We have stupid effing laws here.
hmmm, Steak.. 😋🥩
👍🏻🥃
Guess the proof wrong then you have to take a sip of FIREBALL MOHAHAHA
Porterhouse, medium rare
isn't the bottle empty by then?
Skirt steak or prime rib
7:30 the game would be good if you get 1 point for 1% ABV that you are off. Whoever gets the lowest score, wins.
How about if the pie is a cow pattie pie...
Question. What happens when that much B. S. and a bottle of whiskey fly into the sun?
5:57 The commenter, forced you to go full physics lecture. Just don't let Scott Gaunson see this or you'll have a law suit for ripping off his "science with Gaunson" segment🤣44
We need Brian Cox or Neil DeGrasse Tyson on an upcoming Whiskey Tribe. Or the Veritasium guy.
3:30 - I am TheProof
Bodily harm or bottle-y harm?
Stakes:
Before the contestants know what is happening, you should find out what their five favorite whiskies and five that they hate. You’ll want to do this in a way where they would not know that the information will be used against them.
If they guess correctly, they can have whiskey they like.
If the guess incorrectly, they have to drink the whiskey that they hate…and cannot continue until the glass is empty.
The trick is, they cannot know what they are drinking. We want to see disappointed faces.
Stakes... if you get 5 wrong egg smashed over your head for Rex because he hates them so much, and one of the many items on Daniel's hated list... apple sauce? That's on the list right? Lol
The stakes? Variant of squid games red light green light
STAKES: a shot of cheap, budget, bad tasting whiskey if you lose, or guess incorrectly. That's one way to get rid of the plastic bottle whiskeys, haha!
Gunge, if you get the proof wrong for the game you get soaked in gunge!!
Man I wish my state didn't treat its adults like children so I could find stuff like this. Let Costco sell liquor, dammit!
I can't wait for next year when the guys get to decide again what they review. This review of a whisky that 0.00001% of the viewers could get access to is not... really... relevant to the 99.99999% of us.
Strip guess the proof
I never considered you an adult man.
Daniel has to eat or do things he hates every time he gets a proof wrong
We need a version of you. An alter ego. A Jekyll-Hyde pedantic, self-centered, snobbish, presumptuous, classist version, in short a parody of all the defects and worst defects that a whiskey drinker can harbor within himself.
Halloween episode!
You've been asked to help and you are trying. I'm sure your Wives would say that you were very trying. But we probably should not argue semantics and just stick to the positive.
competition stakes =
unknown shots.. one nice, one not so much.. say Redbreast 12 vs Rich & Rare... winner gets the nice one... loser gets the ucky one... as the game goes on the stakes accumulate... will get ugly... bodily harm & bottle-y harm.. lol
Stakes? Loser has to buy the other a whiskey of their choice
The loser has has to drink the William rare whiskey Friday collection again and share feelings.
Daniel would have to taste things off the hate list.
Rex… I’m sure Daniel knows your list.
Loser has to do a serious review of canadian mist
Steal the hot ones interview format but with proofs rather than scoville
No wonder the queue is so long when this dumb stuff is being reviewed lol
Care to explain that?

Y'all are way past middle aged...
