      Always watch at 1.5 or even 1.75. Absolutely LOVE Kurt and Trent - they're by far my fave whiskey channel - but the guys talk too slow and include a lot of fun but irrelevant stuff. So I get to listen to their superb bourbon intelligence in a reasonable amount of time. 😂

      If I don't watch it all now, I'll watch it later. At just over half an hour, this one's about perfect for my lunch break, but if it went on longer I'd just finish watching it after work or tomorrow.

    Thank you to taking your time with this one. I am a double oak "junkie" and have or have tried many of the ones you had in this blind, especially the Sagamore Rye! I paid about $130 for the Peerless DO Rye and love it but still would choose the Sagamore DO Rye for two reasons: 1) I love it, and 2) it is half the price of the Peerless!
    FYI - The Peerless DO Bourbon is still selling for about $83 in San Antonio, TX when available.

    Super happy with this video. I love double oaked products, but I know of so few of them. Hoping to hunt down some more :) The Peerless Double Oaked is, in my opinion, very good, but $20 too expensive. It has some great tasting notes, but it just doesn't have the push I want out of a $100+ bottle. Peerless do have a double oaked rye that is fantastic. Highly recommend if you can find (and afford) it.

      Thanks for doing this on every video... first thing I do is search for it and read through your segment descriptors.

    I have determined that my tastebuds align much more with Kurt than with Trent, I usually go out and buy what Kurt likes and that works well for me. I love this channel!!!

    I like Woodford double and OF 1910. But I like the Sagamore DO rye even more!

    I get Peerless 2oak for $92 in Charleston SC. It’s wonderful, I think your taste buds are off today. The Sagamore is great though.

    Sagamore Double Oaked is insanely good. Haven’t gotten to have a lot of the peerless due to the cost but the few times I’ve had it it is was incredibly good.

    Gotta agree, neck pour is very real. Every whisk(e)y differs in terms of how much they change after opening up, and how long it takes to really blossom, so there might be one here or there for whom the neck-pour vs a nicely opened pour may not matter as much. But man it's real. Drives me crazy when a channel opens a bottle and judges it on that first pour. It's just not fair. So thank you for not doing that!!!

      That's because the proof must lower once opened and the alcohol evaporates.

      @@nitoxys2564 Hmmm . . . never heard that theory before and I'm honestly skeptical as the environment plays a big role in whether alcohol or water evaporates first. Famously, alcohol evaporates before water in Scotland, whereas the opposite happens in the Southern US, which is why older Scotch almost always have lower proof than older Bourbon (which actually get stronger with age). The leading theory is the effect of oxygen on the whisky (oxidation). Perhaps oxidation causes a reduction in alcohol concentration? But I'm not sure . . .

    2XO has become my favorite as of late. The American Oak tastes so much better a few months after I opened that bottle.
