A little more available and quite a bit less expensive, it's a nice alternative. I actually prefer it at the higher proof. I'll keep a Blanton's, but I drink the EHT.
Love Blanton's when I can find it, Elijah Craig and 4 Roses Single Barrel from different liquor stores are staples in the house but Old Forster is my go to. Whether it's Statesman, Single Barrel or regular 100 proof. I don't mind New Riff but only ever see it at 70+ a bottle and not worth that price IMO
@@frederickglass1583 I've never seen a SFTB Blanton's sadly. I have a couple bottles of original Blanton's that comes out on special occasions, (one was actually bottled on my birthday) but that's it. I haven't bought a bottle in a few years since in the Metro Detroit area I can only find them at over $120 mark up usually. Last bottle I bought was actually down in Kentucky about 5 years ago now
Frey Ranch seems to be doing things right. They are on batch 5 of their latest release and in my opinion it is the best. The sky is the limit for these guys.
If you think some of these are good go find a bottle of fiddler Georgia heartwood. Hands down the greatest bourbon I’ve ever had. And knob creek 18 year is great too
I've never tried Blantons, the Weller's, or the Pappy's, but most every other high end juice. Having typed that. Eagle Rare is the best I've had. Hopefully I'll try something that tops it.
Usually these lists are complete bullsh#t but some of these picks are actually pretty solid .not all of them But 6 of the 10 are good in my opinion. Good luck trying to find blantons anywhere and if you do it will probably be 2-3 × retail but skip it anyway it's overrated.
I love Blanton's but you're right, way overrated. And if anyone can get it for $65 a bottled (or even find a bottle) good luck. My sister-in-law bought a bottle for my brother last year in Temecula, CA......$269.
WhiskeyRaiders got it dead on the money with Stellum. Their Black and Private Selections are worth every cent. I have their Blue label "Vega" bottle and holy hell is is good! For all those who are looking for Blanton's, go for STFB, and avoid the lure of the Green Export label. Green Export is IMO watery, very little flavor, and extremely lacking for a $100+ bottle that's only at 40% ABV. I stupidly made the mistake of buying GLB out of Frootbat from Australia last year. I find myself struggling to even WANT to finish the bottle for how lackluster of a whiskey it honestly is. I've heard that Blanton's best selections are SB, SFTB, Takara Red label, Black Label, and the rare Golden label.
@@joewas2225 Stay away from anything Heaven Hill. They're owned by a greedy, selfish family of corporate shills that screwed over their union workers and literally caused a massive market strike of HH products by bourbon drinkers last year. Standard BT is good juice, Sazerac is as well if you like Rye whiskey
Actual morons lol. Tell me you hate bourbon without telling me you hate bourbon. As long as you're talking about regular retail price, you're as wrong as possible.
This video is cringy AF. A "blend" is not what you are saying in this video. The term blend refers to whiskies from multiple distilleries blended and sold. What you are saying a "blended" is actually called batching if done in one distillery and, in the Scotch World, would be considered a "Single..." even though they are batched and "blended" for consistent taste.
Which bourbon is your favorite?
Old Forester 1920 . That stuff is amazing!
Indeed! I like the 1910 as well.
A sigh of relief that my favorites were not mentioned.
Knob Creek 12 Year is my go to.
Woodford Reserve Double Oaked is my favorite. So far..
Let me just pop on down to my local liquor store and pick up a bottle of Blanton’s. 🙄🤦🏼♂️
It is spilling off the shelves here
Where are you guys getting Blanton's at? I haven't seen any around here (Central Illinois) in years!
@@kitcarson7447 it’s all over CA
It's the wellers of certain areas. Smh I'll trade blantons all day for 107.
@@douglasbunch3313 for 50 bucks...?
The last thing anyone wants is, "Christmas in a glass" when drinking bourbon.
I dunno....E.H. Taylor small batch bonded is hard to beat!
A little more available and quite a bit less expensive, it's a nice alternative. I actually prefer it at the higher proof. I'll keep a Blanton's, but I drink the EHT.
All Evan Williams whiskeys are very good!
Elijah Craig is a staple can't beat it for the price. Although I love myself some knob creek 9 year.
Buffalo trace is my go to bourbon I really enjoy it
BT standard is one of my top 5 go to's if you can find it for a NORMAL price, that is....
I'm sipping Elijah Craig, it's really good and is price friendly.
Russel's Reserve is wonderful!
Love Old Forester 1920

I'm still looking for the standard sb blanton's. It's price is beyond stupid now, and the SFTB is damn near impossible to find

I enjoy Larceny. I find it a good value and it's taste is inline with it's price but I haven't seen a bottle of it in my area in months.
Larceny is easy to find by me. Almost every store has it. Larceny barrel proof is a completely different story tho. I've never even seen a bottle
Not sure where they shop but I can't find the stated prices
I was thinking the same thing. Where did they get their price listings. Not from any liquor stores I’ve been to.
Frey Ranch seems to be doing things right. They are on batch 5 of their latest release and in my opinion it is the best. The sky is the limit for these guys.
Ngl, Frey Ranch and Smoke Wagon are likely Nevada's best 2 in-state distilled whiskeys on the market currently.
If you think some of these are good go find a bottle of fiddler Georgia heartwood. Hands down the greatest bourbon I’ve ever had. And knob creek 18 year is great too
I’m a Blackland Bourbon fan outta Fort Worth. Good sipping stuff

ER10 is a solid bourbon. I'd kill a man to have a chance of tasting the 25yr Double Eagle in the crystal decanter set.
Blanton's is overrated. It's very good but overpriced and overrated as compared to others.
Redemption High Rye Single Barrel is (Thus far) my favorite. Over all of these...
Usually these lists are complete bullsh#t but some of these picks are actually pretty solid .not all of them
But 6 of the 10 are good in my opinion. Good luck trying to find blantons anywhere and if you do it will probably be 2-3 × retail but skip it anyway it's overrated.

I want to see Yellowstone Whiskey reviewed.
First had it the other day. 100% adding it to the collection, very good.

Try Huling Station if it’s available in you’re area.
Old Carter smoke all these bourbons.👌🏾
All you need is some Old Crow or Evan Williams black labels. But there are a million brilliant bourbons out there if you can afford them.
Cheers. :)
Sorry Bullet and Woodford Reserve for me ❤️🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️
Russell s and Elijah Craig....yummy
Love Russell's!
Try the bourbons on the shelf that are good value. Do not bother with any buffalo trace products as they are not worth the money.
Buffalo trace 28$ worth the $$$
I don't waste my $ with anything by Buffalo Trace, Heaven Hill or Sazerac.
@@danzdog

Let me get Impressed...
Nope.
What flavor, I wonder, if I dissolve concentrated pseudoephedrine , in Bourbon? Extra kick flavor.
Video should be SLOWED a bit.
This is the most absurd bs list put together by someone who doesn't know bourbon and never took a sip of all of those on the list.
What?!?!?! These are all good bourbons. I prefer woodford double oak and Russell reserve though more than any.
Just bought a case of Blantons.
You're not getting Blantons or bookers easily
This lady talks to fast.
If she drank Bourbon that fast , she’s missing out on the flavor notes.

Haha blantons for 65…. Good luck
Jokes on you I've seen it & still collects dust at a couple places near me.
Video has an obnoxious format
way to suggest a bunch of bourbons no one can find on the shelves...smh
😁😁😁😁😁😆😆😆😆😆😀😀😀
Hard to tolerate that voice
The is one of the worst fucking lists I've ever seen. Lmfao
What's wrong with it? It's got a little bit for a wide variety of pours. These lists are more for taters than people who already know what they like.
