It’s quite delicious you should love it

Haha I just can’t do single malts or blended scotch haha this solidified it’s not for me. Thanks again though Ralph this was great knowledge going into Matt Madness

Thanks Jake

I hope it isn’t a lot of cash lol

@@bourbonbill You have to work on those foreign whiskys LOL. If it was just Bourbon and Rye I'd easily put a C-Note on you!

@@100puremustard5haha yeah I’m pretty bad on those I’m niche you know a lot of knowledge on the bourbon and rye side but that’s about it

Haha I hope that I don’t get any single malts in Matt Madness

@@bourbonbill bro. Expect the unexpected. There are politics, everyone is nice on camera…. the big dogs stay the big dogs by design. I love everyone’s videos. I’m just saying.

I’ll do my best to

I had a great laugh filming it lol

Thanks it was a challenge

Haha it was a lot of fun filming too

Thanks I hope so!

Actually no idea even though some of us know we made it we haven’t been contacted or given any info

Haha by the show here it’s going to be a short run lol

Haha if I had some of this sample left I would send it to you lol I’m not an Irish scotch or single malt fan apparently of any country of distillation

Haha I guess ruined my palate before I got to it maybe

Haha yeah I mean heck if you liked the redbreast you might like some of these I couldn’t do any of them

He's being a big baby, James. These are all highly reviewed, high quality pours. But if you don't like malt, then yeah, your reaction will be the same. Lol. Cheers.

Yes absolutely send me an email thanks

@@bourbonbill will do brother!

HC211 is the best Hardins creek hands down no competition

Where I got these is long sold out

Thanks it’s an oldie but a goodie. And yeah I’ve found it to be almost more age and floor dependent vs recipe as the years go on

It really is

I heard that rumor to that it’s getting low hopefully they do a batch 2 or something

Yeah I made that wrong assumption as well that all their cask offerings were older but for now that’s just the picks this first “shelfer” if you will is certainly not old fairly young. disappointing really when you consider they only released 7k bottles of it sure that’s double the double oak release qty and a lot more than the picks they have been doing but you think for that young they could have released greater numbers so they were actually shelf available

Haha yeah you can tell right away from the color

I haven’t but that’s mgp house brand for that price it’s a buy it won’t be bad

@@bourbonbill Yes, it's an ID Rye, Ross & Squibb as printed on the label. Was just asking because I have not tasted much, if any, of the whiskeys you did here, but I do have that & Rare Breed Rye. So wanted to hear the opinion of someone who has had all of them... Did buy a bottle of KC Rye 115P Store pick 8-9yr from floor 4 for $45 + tax. Have not tried it yet. I'm hoping it's as good, or close to, Knob Creek 10 year

@@motohead077I’m not sure how that store pick would be of the KC rye but the 10 seems a little special it wasn’t that close between it and the limited cask strength rye from 2018 that was 9yrs old. flavor profiles differed more than I expected the KC10 is oak heavy for sure

@@bourbonbill Ok, thanks! Btw, loved how you kept bringing out relevant 'surprise' bottles to compare!

Yeah I agree there limited offerings are great but what they are putting out as cask and shelters are just okay and in some cases a little overpriced. Agree too that the model of perfection is sagamore their shelf bottles are killer and their special releases are amazing and they don’t break the bank on either

I’m not sure I’ve seen anyone actually get one yet so not sure if they are out I’m definitely interested in getting one though

Yeah I skipped that too for what I expected would be a let down. That felt like a cash grab because they used the same bottle and similar name to their expensive 12yr option

The 2024 cask Dave or a store pick? The store picks are out of this world good

@@bourbonbill not sure. I have been traveling this week and have not looked at it.

I mean those prices are not much above msrp so don’t blame you there but yeah these new young cask strengths from Them are not the same caliber as the double oak or the 15th anniversary bottle

@@bourbonbill sadly it had no age statement I believe figured 7 to 8 for that price. Sadly it is lower.

@@durzagon88yeah when I first heard about it I also assumed probably 7-8 and was shocked when they said 5-6

We swirl everything here! Sometimes I even shake the bottles

Of course

Yep I think the picks can be special and the double oak but these 5-6yr offerings even at cask are nothing special

Completely agree, James

Thanks

Its dang good stuff for sure

I had heard that rumor it does have a good older profile so it could be true

@@bourbonbill its not a rumor, info was released to the press

@@YoJimBo851610it didn’t say how much 17yr though was in the blend did it? Percentage wise

@@bourbonbill unfortunately no

Thanks! And I literally don’t know I heard I got in but so far no email or details of any kind I don’t even know the dates it starts haha

@@bourbonbill, I think the competition is running behind the original schedule that Matt had in mind a few months back. If I'm not mistaken the original plan was to have the tastings start in June and conclude in July. In the video I saw where Matt announced who was *in* Matt at one point alluded to being behind schedule and he said the reason it was behind was because of *him* . I think you're 5th seed. There is a 6th seed and Matt said that the 6th seed people are starting at a disadvantage to the 5th seed.

@@BeThereAgain_BestServedNeatwell hopefully being further down I get more samples lol but it would be nice to know when this thing kicks off I got vacations coming up lol

Haha hey hey I do plenty non sagamore lol

Haha I’ll find a suit maybe. And yeah Jacob’s well batch 2 is unstoppable it seems

Those are both great bottles! Congrats on those

You never know it could be cheaper depending on the exchange rate!

@@bourbonbill very true!

Yeah that’s for sure it’s top tier stuff is Beam didn’t have nearly as good products cheaper would probably give it a fair value compared to what others charge

Haha you threw out $85 right away with the box lol. I don’t keep boxes either no room for that one the shelf

Same, I was also hoping for a Jacobs Well but no dice on that

Yeah I get that it’s splitting hairs comparing them the problem is they have a lot of awesome offerings like KC18 and the Hardins Creek at $165 it makes the $250 steep for a box

Agree 100%

Cheers! And of course it’s delicious stuff but you are definitely paying for the box!

That is sad hopefully you find a backup!

I think it’s at the distillery if you walk in

Haha yep she joined for that one

Haha nope I remember saying in the video it was crushable guess it was lol

Thanks again Mike for your help

Next time I’m there I can see if any are left not sure how fast they will go. Some sell out within a couple weeks and some last a month
