    Y’all are smokin’. I love this release. I think they finally nailed it compared to the two 10 years, though I prefer the more recent 10 year to last year’s release.
    I appreciate the fact that you all are not afraid to have a different take than the bourbon drinking public, but you all are out of step with my bourbon group and the bourbon tubes on this one. Too tannic? Avoid drinking the oak water. I would not mention this in the same breath with EC18, but to each his own…

      I only got a sample of this from a friend but I agree this is far from over oaked. I thought it was delicious. Oak wasn’t even the predominant note I got.

    Do you guys find that tasting and nosing outdoors changes anything? For me I don’t like doing it outdoors seems more muted and harder to get things out of a drink. So I usually drink cheaper stuff outdoors. 🤷🏻‍♂️

    I’ll never agree with Dutch evaluating value based purely on stats vs enjoyment. Who cares if it’s 12 years. If it’s a 6 on drinkability and $90, then it’s not a 4.

    EC18 definitely isn't over oaked. Maybe the JD12 is for me.
    Also, am I the only one who has no idea wtf Dillon is talking about when he brings the "circle of pleasure" into the conversation? Dillon seriously speaking his own improvised language over here.

    • @CuriosityPublic

      There has been a lot of variance with the EC18 (single barrel obviously). Apparently more recent batches have been more tame with the oak.

    Glad you killed it on value. My Dad never got over going from fifths of a gallon to 750 ml which was only a 7 ml reduction. He was convinced it was a communist plot out to get the drinking man. He would be rolling over in his grave at losing 50 ml! Fortunately he was never a JD fan. Our first major row over whiskey was when I called JD bourbon. You'd have thought I'd said FDR was a great president. Boom.
    Based on your review I'll stick with the BP SiB JD. I can get them anywhere and they are usually great. By the way, the audio sucked.

    I don’t believe that they are changing their mash bill it’s pretty much the same across the board with Daniels. Maybe a bad bottle on the ten or it got hot somewhere. But every bottle is the same mash bill.

  • @clarkbar3435
    @clarkbar3435 Рік тому +1

    Just throwing out an opinion. There are not enough high quality barrels produced to meet the high end needs of the explosion of bourbon drinkers. There are now way more buyers than actual bourbon drinkers. So sellers are cherry picking products to market with limited stock. Which will then never be reproduced at higher volumes of production. So that you can then sell your older not so great older barrels at a higher price point based on accurate (at that time) reviews like yours. Hopefully, there will be an increase in production from new distillers over time, but in the interim, there will be a decrease in quality at a higher price point. I doubt you will ever see a 10 and 12 year product at this MRSP again. Which was the play from the beginning.
