Great video! I’ve only tried Blanton’s, and have a bottle of Hancock’s I’m waiting to crack. The others I haven’t seen, or refuse to pay secondary. However this is a PERFECT video for anyone that’s curious about the differences. Nice breakdown, and nice analogies. Haha. Thanks on giving a realistic outlook on how long it takes to grab these at decent prices. Hope to find some. Cheers! 🥃
"People overpay for this". Dillon is one of these people but his grin when he held up all the caps was so awesome hahaha. Like a kid on Christmas who got what he wanted.
Glad I stumbled on your new site. I enjoy your reviews. Here in Kentucky, home of Buffalo Trace, you can’t find any of these. Right now I’m entered in a lottery to see if I am one of the lucky few chosen to be eligible to buy a Blanton’s. No mention of the price they’ll want for it. But we are under the label of our current bottle so I hope I get the opportunity. All of these might as well be considered “allocated” BT products here in the home state of Kentucky Liquid Gold.
go to Oregon and find a bottle of elmer t lee for 37.99, price controlled state and not a big bourbon state.. They almost always have blantons at msrp. Hancock's is the most inconsistent in flavors barrel to barrel, have had a few not very good ones. Got Rock hill at total wines for 45.99, just need to go in when they get deliveries and watch them roll out the carts with cases on them from the back, early bird gets the bottle. They are all good bourbons but at or near msrp only.
I have had 2 bottles of Hancock's, the 1st one tasted like an Apple Cobbler, cinnamon/oak with confectiner's sugar sweetness.. My moat recent one tastes like an apple pie box from McDonald's with ciggrette ashes in it. Wild difference in experience with those 2 bottles.
I've been trying whiskey round the world recently, think im a bourbon guy, second bourbon i had was wild turkey 101 and i loved it, im now drinking buffalo trace and i have a bottle of the balvenie 12 double wood scotch but prefer the buffalo trace, im also good with irish whiskey so I'm thinking I don't like scotch
What's not to love about mash bill #2? Except allocation, hype and secondary market. I've tried all 4 but wish I could have them side by side. Thanks for doing the hard work for us.
Glad to find this channel again. I miss you guys ragging on that other guy (Butcher of Bakersfield?). I'd love to see a Wild Turkey drinkthrough! WT 101 is my go to daily drinker. Also, I'd love to see reviews or Ultimate Spirits Competition for their Master's Keep offerings. Thanks-and love the channel!
You should've added John J. Bowman to this! They source their juice from Trace and the John J. is supposedly mash #2. Basically an affordable Blantons. Either way, thanks for uploading, I'm loving this channel
Our guess is that the Kosher rye recipe is more likely mashbill #1. Mashbill #2 is apparently still owned by AGE International, Inc - so it's unlikely anything with Mashbill 2 would be marketed under the Buffalo Trace name. Haven't tried the Kosher Rye recipe yet though - hope to try it soon.
The special Blanton's are also available in America now? That explains why I can't find a single bottle in Belgium (and they used to be very common). I would have loved to try the Special Reserve. A shame. But thank you for the information! Always learning with Curiosity Public!
I finally got all four bourbons but, I paid secondary market price besides Blanton’s which was at msrp price. I guess the good thing is that I only buy one bottle of whatever it may be once. We got sh*tty liquors that take advantage of the market.
You can find Blanton's in Ohio, IF you know "a guy" who is willing to tell you it's among the allocation that week and IF you're willing to stand in line for 2 hours waiting for the liquor store to open and IF they have two cases because you're 11th in line. Yes, it's that bad...
It's sad how ridiculously rare these have become. I used to get ETL regularly at 35-45 bucks. Now as you indicated none of these can be found in regular store.

Cheers! Thanks for watching!
I love it when Hancocks always wins the blind tastings, haha.
Yo! Your stats have exploded in the past 3 days. Congrats. You guys deserve it.
Thanks!
I like the drink through style. The Four Square drink through exposed me to loving some quality rum now.
Wait so this is where the Bourbon Guild went? How am I just now finding this channel
"People overpay for this". Dillon is one of these people but his grin when he held up all the caps was so awesome hahaha. Like a kid on Christmas who got what he wanted.
The Dr. Dillon graphic made my day. Nice work as always guys!

Woop there it is! Not afraid to say that I’ve watched the Dillon graphic several times 🙌
The video that the bourbon community has been waiting for! Curiosity Public's Mash Bill 2 review! Great video
So this is your new channel. Welcome back guys. Where's the butcher of Bakersfield?
Just found this site. Glad to watch without all crazy acting.
If only they were more available. Great review! Cheers 🥃
At one time I was buying Elmer T Lee at Giant Eagle Supermarket for $35 and it was always in stock. Man, I miss those days
Good video. First time that I looked at one of your videos today. I subscribed, keep up the good work.
Thanks!
This is a good video. Good job you guys.
Dutch's description re: the sweet spot, relaxing and the notion of not so focused on the drink is gospel. Outstanding reviews from all the gentlemen.
glad to see you 3 back in action! subscribed!
Glad to see you return to youtubes. Subscribed!
Heeeeeyyyyyy missed you guys glad to see you’re still around 🥃

Rock hill $45.99 amazing. Take the bottle which is nice and just give me the liquor for that price. Let's make a deal. Stock up and amazing
Nice show, thx
Fun video as always guys 👍🏻
In about a year and a half of searching, I’ve never seen any of those besides Blantons
Glad I found you guys after missing you guys for about a year. Good channel good reviews. I'll be trying to get people to follow you. 😁👍
I drove all the way across town in a literal blizzard, just to buy a bottle of Blanton's for $80. I've never seen another one in any store.
Good to see you back! Where’s the Butcher of Bakersfield?
Crazy girlfriend? Kicking? Hitting people with black roses? I want to know more about Dillon’s crazy life. Haha. Great video! Cheers.
I've been trying whiskey round the world recently, think im a bourbon guy, second bourbon i had was wild turkey 101 and i loved it, im now drinking buffalo trace and i have a bottle of the balvenie 12 double wood scotch but prefer the buffalo trace, im also good with irish whiskey so I'm thinking I don't like scotch
You guys are back 😃. Missed your guys reviews
7:54 stewed fruit. Take a drink.
Great video!! Big fan of everything. Can you please do a Buffalo Trace and eagle rare video?
Thanks for the requests. We'll definitely do some more of the buffalo trace products
What's not to love about mash bill #2? Except allocation, hype and secondary market. I've tried all 4 but wish I could have them side by side. Thanks for doing the hard work for us.
Blanton's SFTB is coming to the US!!!! The happiness I have.... speechless LOL. Do you know if they already have it in stores here in the US now?
Not sure when they will be releasing it, but from what we've heard it will be a once a year special release.
@@CuriosityPublic OK that's awesome! Thanks for the info. I will be keeping my ear to the ground
Awesome content guys. Still trying to find a Elmer. Would love to see a barrel proof comparison. ECBP, Stagg Jr, etc.
3 years later and everything has gone up exponentially!
Glad to find this channel again. I miss you guys ragging on that other guy (Butcher of Bakersfield?).
I'd love to see a Wild Turkey drinkthrough! WT 101 is my go to daily drinker.
Also, I'd love to see reviews or Ultimate Spirits Competition for their Master's Keep offerings.
Thanks-and love the channel!
Great rundown boys! The only thing missing here mentioning your personal favourites. Blanton’s is the only I’ve ever seen in 🇨🇦. Cheers!
What happened to the butcher??
Dutches comment about going blind with crazy proof and loud volume was profound to me
VA released bottles of Elmer this year. Was able to grab 2 for $40 each. Have yet to see a Rock Hill Farms in the wild. Blanton’s is over rated.
Enjoy the content and knowledge guys!
Solid reviews as always. Love Rock Hill. Blanton’s is enjoyable sipper. Elmer Lee is nowhere to be found. Hancock I gotta try
Very nice drinkthrough. Would never pay above MSRP for these. Never understood the hype.
I missed your faces!
Where is The Butcher of Bakersfield???
Where is Ben Richards?
You should've added John J. Bowman to this! They source their juice from Trace and the John J. is supposedly mash #2. Basically an affordable Blantons. Either way, thanks for uploading, I'm loving this channel
Taking Mash 2 to the extreme is Blanton's SFTB and it's incredible
Just picked up a Buffalo Trace kosher rye recipe. Assuming this is mash bill 2 as well. Have you had it? How does it line up with these?
Our guess is that the Kosher rye recipe is more likely mashbill #1. Mashbill #2 is apparently still owned by AGE International, Inc - so it's unlikely anything with Mashbill 2 would be marketed under the Buffalo Trace name.
Haven't tried the Kosher Rye recipe yet though - hope to try it soon.
I thought I’d lost theses guys ..
Didn’t realize this wasn’t a new video until I heard you say $45 for Hancocks 😂
Ancient Ancient Age 10 Star 🌟
Is this the channel you guys had to make to get away from the Butcher?
Thanks, this was very informative. Look forward to more.
Great vid! None of these are findable at MSRP anymore 😢
Watching this again. I think old forester should be one. Always available at great price points.
It's coming....
The special Blanton's are also available in America now? That explains why I can't find a single bottle in Belgium (and they used to be very common). I would have loved to try the Special Reserve. A shame. But thank you for the information! Always learning with Curiosity Public!
I finally got all four bourbons but, I paid secondary market price besides Blanton’s which was at msrp price. I guess the good thing is that I only buy one bottle of whatever it may be once. We got sh*tty liquors that take advantage of the market.
I'm only missing the Rockhill and I found in a store but the salesperson don't want to sell it, he told me he will hold (i guess for a special client)
Love Hancock’s but even TW is marking it up to be a $60 bottle. They jumped the price $15 since October.
You can find Blanton's in Ohio, IF you know "a guy" who is willing to tell you it's among the allocation that week and IF you're willing to stand in line for 2 hours waiting for the liquor store to open and IF they have two cases because you're 11th in line. Yes, it's that bad...
It's sad how ridiculously rare these have become. I used to get ETL regularly at 35-45 bucks. Now as you indicated none of these can be found in regular store.
I literally just found a Hancocks on my total wines shelf for msrp, got it with a 15% coupon too... its alright
LOL. FoC comparison
I just tried 80% Weller 107 and 20% Eagle Rare 10 and it was awesome...Can anyone tell me after trying it, if that mixture is like Pappy 15?
Where are you guys located in California?
1st
What happened to the Butcher of Bakersfield?
Blanton's out my way is going for 227 a bottle. It's good but it's not that good.
Mashbill #1 drinkthrough when?
Dillon, if you need help blink three times fast and say something condescending! #batteredbourbonite
Where is the butcher of Bakersfield???
So is Buffalo Trace mashbill #2?
Isn’t Ancient Age and Ancient Ancient Age also #2
yup! But they are not single barrel - which is what we focused on here - see 00:40
What happened to the fat guy? Did he piss you guys off or something
Love the content and you guys are always entertaining, but....that background...seriously has to go. Awful
This comparison is a joke by wannabe's
Why?
