Since you mentioned Evan Williams, I'll add that Evan Williams Single Barrel Vintage is real solid sipper at 86.6 proof and I say that as someone who rarely sips under 90.
I completely agree. I grabbed a couple when Idaho stopped selling it and I can't bring myself to open them. I was literally pissed when I found out I couldn't get it again.
American Hero Edition is my favorite with the dusty barnyard peanut note. That Benchmark was originally marketed as a premium offering from Seagrams Distillery back in the day. I would say it’s still premium for a very fair price. ADHD is spot on in today’s video.
I'm glad I saw this. Before watching this I was in the mind set of anything under 90 proof is Bourbon water. I saw some Hancock in TW last week and past on it bcuz of the proof. I ll have a pour before I buy.
My go-to under 90 proof American whiskeys/bourbons both to drink and introduce others to the spirit are Michter's sour mash, EW single barrel, Old Forester 86
Picked up a bottle of the IWH15 for $80 after watching this and holy effin shartballs. Wow. A true flavor bomb for its proof. My cabinet is 75ish% barrel proof expressions, but this makes for a fantastic starting pour before climbing the proof ladder, or a pour-to-impress for someone who prefers lower proof bourbons - and that’s without taking the age statement into consideration. I would choose this over standard Blanton’s given the option.
IW Harper 15 year is awesome. Also Dickel 15 year single barrels are commonly 80 proof and they are absolutely the best Dickel offering that doesn’t taste like a flintstone vitamin kicked you in the face.
Thank you very much for the info. I have never tried Tin Cup but I will now. At the present moment I love old forester 86 and TX Whiskey as my go to whiskeys under 90 proof. If you have tried either of them I would love to know your thoughts. Thank you in advance.
I always just turn newbies onto the Elijah Craig toasted, rye and small batch. They are 94 proof but drink really good. Usually, one of those will be appreciated.
May be your most entertaining video yet. I live in the Communist state of Virginia where all the ABC stores are owned by the state. The selection has recently started to improve. I watch a lot of bourbon videos. I am currently visiting my brother is South Carolina, after helping move my daughter back into school. South Carolina has a great variety of bourbon. I’ve been in a couple of stores, but being that I will most likely have to wait for five more years of out of state tuition to buy a decent bottle, I picked up the perfect low proof starter bottle for $14 today. It was the very last bottle. Even Kurt at SLB started with a peach flavored whiskey. Me, I picked up a Evan Williams Cherry. It’s sweet, makes a great cocktail, and the price can’t be beat.m

I’d include Michter’s American Whiskey, Rye and Sour Mash. I’d also throw Wyoming Small Batch on the list.

Yup, it's got a lot of flavor. One of my go-to starter pours.
@@CarriageHouseCompany they went wide release again this year. I just bought my first one when they restocked about 2/3 months ago in California.
Couple I like - Old Forester 86 and Michters Sour Mash & American Whiskey
Evan Williams single barrel vintage is an absolute must. For $30 it's almost impossible to beat. Those marshmallow notes are so good.
Nice choices. Hard for some of us to remember that there are quality pours under 90 proof.
Evan Williams single barrel and Old Forester 86 👍
Glad to see tin cup 14er getting some love. Great bottle for the price and age statement!
Early Times BIB, EC small batch, Old Forester 100 and Redwood Empire Lost Monarch were my gateway whiskeys. And I still enjoy them.
"or you like it a lot" had me rolling. Rock solid list Matt.
😂😂 talk about relating to someone so much you watch them like a dog with it's head turned. Love it! Great reviews. Cheers.
The one I would add to this list is the Evan Williams single barrel that just came back into the stores. Those are wonderful for 86 proof.
Awesome choices, I’ll agree with the commenter who also recommended Evan Williams Single Barrel
The first whiskey that got me hooked was Evan Williams Small Batch.
Hancock is my favorite Mashbill 2 (other than Blantons SFTB). Its so crushably good.
I think woodford double oak should have been included, a great pour under 90 proof
“Are your French kissing me with a firework?”
OMG! Maybe I shouldn’t have drank this much on a Monday! 🤣🤣🤣
Benchmark Top Floor and VOB 86 are two cheap pours that never get old and never hurt the wallet.
American Hero Edition is my favorite with the dusty barnyard peanut note.

Herby Hancock’s…..too funny! Love that!

Love Top Floor! I just picked up Tin Cup 14 year batch 2! Looking forward to cracking it 🎉
I love the Tin Cup 10 year. Don't see it around much.
thank you for this kind of video.
Wild Turkey Longbranch is the ultimate gateway bourbon
I love these picks. I really love Tin Cup. Now I gotta try JW Harper! Thanks man!

old forester 1910 got me in!
“So we can scratch our ass while we are riding.”
So funny! Still laughing. Love watching your videos!
Evan Williams has the Single Barrel Vintage as well. 86.6 proof, 30-40$, delicious
There’s also Buffalo Trace 80 proof (available in UK) and Evan Williams Single Barrel 86.6 proof
Here in AZ the Hancock's is now $100. They tend to sit on the shelves for a while at that $.
Yikes!
Time to do an "Indiana sourced bourbon" blind. It will be fun to see who's aging process and blending pleases your palate.
Tin Cup 10 and Michters American Whiskey are the only staples on my bar under 90 proof.
IW Harper 15 year is awesome.
Also Dickel 15 year single barrels are commonly 80 proof and they are absolutely the best Dickel offering that doesn’t taste like a flintstone vitamin kicked you in the face.
I recommend Irish Whiskey. Great flavors many under 90 proof. Milam &Greene Sib is also good
Thank you very much for the info. I have never tried Tin Cup but I will now. At the present moment I love old forester 86 and TX Whiskey as my go to whiskeys under 90 proof. If you have tried either of them I would love to know your thoughts. Thank you in advance.
tried m10 Year Tin Cup Rye whiskey today
You tell'em Tommy Boy!!!
Just noticed the bowling light and bowling balls! Black widow is a great ball. Hammer makes some good stuff. What’s your average?
I always just turn newbies onto the Elijah Craig toasted, rye and small batch. They are 94 proof but drink really good. Usually, one of those will be appreciated.
Love the videos as always Matt! Is your garage climate controlled? Just curious if that affects the whiskey. Thanks again!
It is an attached garage under a bedroom so the temperature doesn't fluctuate to extremes.
Have you tried the new green river 1885 at 85 proof? I'm a big fan just cracked it a few days ago
I thought the green river 1885 was great as well
LOVE YOU!
Evan William single barrel is great for the price and age at 86 proof

Jim Beam Red Stag. Great to mix with a cola...an adult cherry cola. Also a good base for a sweeter Old Fashioned. Enjoy
@@lfd_eng9219 Opps, Evan Williams Cherry, my bad. Goes surprisingly well with Canada Dry fruit splash cherry ginger ale.
Bourbon and bowling
love both of those things
Matt are the Two Tin Cup offerings even enjoyable for experienced bourbon lovers?
Yeah, I really enjoy them
In my opinion, Hancock is very price for the juice though.
same, when i see it
Will you get better with those veneers as time goes on?
Matt, whats the diff in the two Evan Williams??
Grandpa Bane
Astrophysics.......? way above my pay grade :)
Mine too
Master Keep 17 year 88 proof, big miss.
🐻 seat 😆
Hint hint, don’t get the white label
Good 💩!!
Hmm I just passed on a fourteener. Guess that was a mistake!
Not necessarily. Some people love it and others cannot get past the low abv
@@ADHDWhiskey low proof alone is not a deal breaker for me. Especially low proof barrel proof. Which of course this is not.
Heck yah i am the number 101 thumbs up.
Woo Hoo
Third!
Where's the OF86?
Got it. Needed to fit the sponsor in so let’s make another video of low budget garbage 🫡
What type of videos would you like to see? I am definitely open to ideas
Your Chanel not mine. Just obviously what this video was about
