Yeah the whole premise is wrong. It's in the coffee cup to hide it.. And he needs that liquor so bad, that he'll drink some disgusting coffee, just for camouflage.
Isn't it also usually in the morning, and he's pouring into last night's leftover coffee that's gone cold? The bourbon makes the harsh bad leftover coffee taste less bad, and also blunts the hangover.
Who wants to mow and fertilize their yard over and over and over and...? NO ONE! Goats Over Night: Problem Solved! (My city actually has a goat program for weed control and area maintenance in public parks...has been pretty successful for several years.)
So. Y'all should take a barrel, fill it with coffee beans, then fill it with whiskey, and let it age for 6 months to a year. Afterwards, collect the whiskey(taste that) and let the coffee beans sun/air dry, and then grind that up and try the coffee.
So glad they went for the "Coffee Brewed in Whiskey" at the end. If they didn't, I'd have begun to question their commitment to quality shenanigan content.
A keurig is like you are restricting yourself to bottom shelf plastic bottle whiskey that's basically dyed paint thinner. Get yourself some good coffee to start with so you aren't fighting stale over roasted bitterness
@Nopey No lol I agree on having time, I wake up a little extra early, still, it takes me about... 10-20 minutes to make about 64 ounces. The metal mesh filters help (my dad has a keurig and roasts his own beans, lol) but you still end up with a plasticy hint to it, though it could be their water source, way better than the k cups for sure, but not quite to pour over level, lol, I guess I'm a snob🤣🤷♂️.
Pour over makes even marginal coffee palatable. Love my daily cup in my Bodum pot. 4 cup pot (2 mugs) was like $20 at Walmart. I cook on propane in my RV so I don’t even need power to make my coffee. Love pour over!
when I was in college I left a water bottle of everclear on my dorm room counter (don’t ask). The next morning my roommate unknowingly used it in his keureg, it literally exploded.
@@lenas9487 thats not accessible enough for the common person. it takes boiling some water, stirring, and then waiting a whole ten minutes. far too arduous a process for the average keurig owner.
You are forgetting the detective doing that is just wanting the hair of the dog. He is drinking old burnt Folgers out of a paper cup and dumping some Kentucky Gentleman in it just to take the edge off.
It’s always so funny to me that I see really serious food and alcohol people using Keurigs and Nespresso. Imagine watching a coffee channel and they whip out a bottle of Banker’s Club.
Exactly. Get a decent French press or at least just a regular coffee maker and do it right. It’s seriously cheaper to do it well that to do it with plastic shit.
I had hoped Goats Over Night was a landscaping service where goats would clear a yard of weeds and tall grass. My admiration for actually getting (renting?) a goat for the joke.
Jameson makes a cold brew infused whiskey. It's really good I think. Has a good taste aftertaste of coffee that doesn't battle with the whiskey. Lovely to drink on during a day off.
@@leemcgann6470 to be honest I'm not 100% sure. When I bought it I didn't think it was going to be good so didn't pay attention. But it is definitely worth a try I think. It says it's a limited thing but it's been in my liquor store for a little while.
So I don’t normally drink flavored whiskeys but I got a peanut butter one for a present. I love peanut butter and whiskey so they thought it would be the perfect gift. It was too sweet for me to just drink but then I tried it in coffee. Changed my life it is soooooo goood!
@@johngardiner8847 oh there would definitely be some difference. I'm not sure for the better. Ethanol extracts flavor compounds way better than water does. Caffeine extraction is reduced but you'd get a ridiculously robust coffee flavor. Making cocktails in a similar fashion I use an Aeropress and even a 2 minute steep with room temperature spirits and you're into the harsh, bitter flavors in even light roasts. I typically chill the spirit portion of the cocktail first, add something like 10g of coffee at around a pour-over or maybe a bit finer grind, steep for about 2:00-2:30 and push through and it really pulls out the lighter, fruiter, floral notes that I love in Ethiopian/Kenyan beans. Makes a wild Gin and Tonic, or more relevant to this channel, a great Manhattan.
Really interesting. I am a coffee nerd (purist) now trying to get into scotch. The overlaps between tasting notes, smell are great and I think a passion for one leads to another.
Whisky & Black Coffee got me through many cold & wet Exercises with the British Army in Germany back in the 80's and 90's. Whatever Whisky was cheapest in the NAAFI, with whatever instant coffee was to hand.50/50 ratio. Different times, and a different Army back then. Good times.
Only found a few brands I like with the k cups and one is sadly pioneer women they had some amazing flavored stuff that comes out tasty and have heard good things about the community brand their drinking. But I prefer my regular ol coffee pot lol
It's not exactly the cups, it's the entire process. The coffee is pre-ground and stale, the water is not hot enough, and the brew time is about 4 times faster than it should be.
Keurig pod coffee ☕️ is like any other coffee ☕️. Some are better than others. Some good brands make pods and with refillable pods you can have any coffee ☕️ using a pod.
Kentucky Knows had been doing rested beans for years with used Buffalo Trace barrels. Owner died last year. It inspired me to use the dregs of a bottle that I finish (anything barrel aged works) and pouring my cold brew or concentrate into that bottle. Lovely subtle and tasty results almost every time with no real hair of the dog required. Love the channel!
You should definitely try to just pour the room temperature whiskey through your coffee in the Chemex. You don't need to heat up the whiskey because the ethanol is doing the extraction job. Its delicious. Trust me, I am a coffee AND whiskey nerd :-)
First of all, that ad was hilarious! Second, I prefer my coffee in the morning and whiskey later. They're better separate than together. Even it you enjoy them at the same time, separate cups.
Putting cold coffee in your cheerios or (any other cereals) is amazing and I don't know why more people don't do it. You can even add milk if you like milk in your coffee.
In Kentucky we drink Coffee with Brown Sugar (or Sorghum) and a little cream or a pat of butter. Ratios are about half a cup of coffee (3-4 ounces), a scant jigger (1 to 1.5 ounces) of bourbon with a not-heaping spoon of brown sugar or Sorghum syrup with just a splash of cream. Lots of old-timers preferred a pat of butter to the cream, that's the way my Uncle Howard and most family like it. My own fave: Half cup of good rich darker coffee (about 3 ounces) Pat of butter (about 3/8 inch slice off the stick) Scant Jigger (slightly less than an ounce) of Bourbon (Woodford Reserve is my favorite) Fill my spoon with sorghum syrup (less than a teaspoon) and start stirring. Putting the cream or butter in before the bourbon helps to keep it from fuming so much. In summer, same thing with iced coffee, but half and half instead of the butter.
At 10 minutes in, I was wondering "They've done the four, why is there still 14 minutes left?". Then they bust out the cold brew. I tip my Glencairn to you, gentlemen.
When I was a kid growing up - right after shoveling snow on our corner lot with a double driveway - my mom used to make me (and my two older brothers) a cup of coffee with cream and sugar... and a shot of Walker's Deluxe or Ten High, depending on what dad had in the house, to help us warm up. It was delicious! I'm not sure what straight whisky and coffee would taste like. I guess you could go to one of those flavored ones that Jim Beam has out like Vanilla or Carmel (?) and see where that gets ya.
I am a fan of the coffee whiskey and if you are going for flavor I use a N2O cream whipper to infuse coffee beans with my whiskey. the process is quick and easy; you guys should try some N2O infusions if you haven't already.
So I made some cold brew recently and decided that I would use my ISI whipper to make nitro cold brew with it. This was excellent. I'm now thinking what would happen if I did this with a shot of whiskey added
The key to beating the ethanol scent is to pour the alcohol in before the coffee, my go to is either jameson or kirkland canadian whiskey the flavor is amazing and its a verry cheap bottle at $20 for 1.75L so i dont feel bad about mixing it in my morning coctail
We used to do this in Grad School tp take edge off an all-night study session. Two Rules: Strong, Black Macro-brand coffee, and Bourbon. Beam was my go to.
Could you guys try steeping cold brew coffee in whiskey??!! I’d love to see the results, and how they would it would taste diluting it with ice and hot water would change the taste! Would be a great part 2 to this.
I’ve been drinking coffee black for four decades. And scotch almost as long. 😁 Don’t like Irish cream in it like so many people do. I do like Canadian rye whisky in my coffee occasionally. CC, Gibson’s, Wiser are my most common ryes. I love scotch, many Irish and some bourbons. None of them in coffee. Cheers 🇨🇦
If the primary concern is that the coffee is too hot and watery, maybe try chilling espresso? Espresso martinis are delicious, but I would love a way to substitute whiskey in for the vodka
The UA-cam ad was somehow appropriate today. Right after they described the coffee a 5 second Bushes beans ad started warbling “These are the beans.” then it went back to them making coffee. 😂
I drink my coffee black two sugar. I love whiskey in my coffee. Coffee mug, three teaspoons sugar, covered with whiskey on hand, fill with coffee. Repeat as needed! Keep up the good work guys.
As a coffee nerd, I was going to suggest cold brew. You get so much more potent flavor than a drip, lots of sweet and nutty flavors start showing up, and if chilled it'd go really nicely with a bourbon or irish. Nice to see it works as well as I thought! If you want to get more whiskey flavor, you can probably cut that cold brew. I don't know if you cut it there, but typically if it's freshly cold brewed it's going to be just a bit strong. Based on the end there, an espresso might be interesting as well.
Not only have y’all talked me into buying sooo many extra bottles of whiskey NOW I just bought a burr grinder, electric kettle, and a chemex to improve my coffee experience...soooo thank you!!!
Whatever coffee is left in the pot when I get home (brewed about 6 hours ago), about 1.5 oz Jameson. That has been my preferred "irish coffee" when getting home from work.
While it’s not what I would call “easily accessible” I recommend Onyx Coffee Lab Eclipse Dark Roast 25g dose @ 1:16 (400mL brewed w/ Kalita Wave 185) 45mL Monkey Shoulder 15mL Turbinado syrup The notes work really well together Nose: Burnt caramel, orange, lemon oil Cup: Toasted Vanilla, Butterscotch, orange peel, and citric acidity with a wee bit of an ethanol burn
I don't mind scotchee every once in a while. You have to pour the scotch first though so the alcohol mixes in to the coffee and doesn't just sit on top.
PLEASE do a follow-up where you cold-brew a pitcher of whisk(ey). I'm willing to bet that, much like the difference between hot and cold with the mixers, you will see much different flavors. Just saying... could be fun...
Loved the episode! You should try Brewers toddy. During a brewday, I often take some of the hot wort and have with some Irish whisky or bourbon. It also works mixing coffee with wort!
I drink my coffee black and whiskey neat. Wish I could say I found the great equalizer for the mix, but when I'm in the mood it's probably an acquired taste like the sum of it's parts. Letting it cool so the sip isn't an evaporated alcohol inhale helps.
Google says a Keurig heats water to 192. So you may have just redistilled a dash of that Wild Turkey 101... And the Keurig preheats the next batch of water after brewing, so the seals, likely not rated for ethanol vapor, just dissolved, causing that release you saw.
I love bourbon and straight whiskey in my coffee. I drink WT101 in my coffee every weekend. For a totally different but great experience go with Dickel 12. But the Wild Turkey is where it’s at.
Ive found myself mixing some mr black and 101 for a nightcap on a regular basis recently. I think bourbon and cold brew coffee liquor marries really well
Haven’t watched many of your newer videos. Your (g)oats over night got me laughing, and it’s been a pretty terrible day so far, so that laugh was appreciated
Just had my first 2 whiskeys last night ever at 32 years old. Never drank growing up (personal reasons). I had a Glenlivet "double oak" single malt, single barrel (12 year I believe) and a monkey shoulder, both neat. Honestly all my pallet could comprehend was alcohol. I did get a little buzz going which was enjoyable. Laughed more than usual (I live alone with my 3 dogs). Slept like a rock which was amazing. Gonna keep trying because I'm very curious and I just dropped quite a bit of limited cash on whiskey.
While i dont do whiskey and coffee, i have been known to do whiskey and tea with fresh lemon juice and honey, but it's mostly when im feeling a bit under the weather, Tea for the comfort, Honey for the simple carbs to keep your energy up, Lemon to cut through some of the sweetness from the honey and whiskey so you fall back to sleep again or are in no state to care that you're ill
I often add whisk(e)y to my coffee. If I am going to go black coffee (cold brew is the way to go), cold brew and a really sweet bourbon is my favorite. I use Wild Turkey American Honey. On the odd day I do hot black coffee and whisk(e)y, I tend to add a pour of my An Oa to it. My sister-in-law said it best, "It takes like hate and salt" after accidentally drinking my coffee. (To add to the sacrilege, the coffee was Café Bustelo). The other times, when I add whiskey to coffee, it is in an Irish Coffee. Nothing like some lovely heavy cream sweetened with some lovely dark brown sugar, a hearty 2 oz pour of whatever my budget Irish is at the moment (normally Jameson, but sometimes Tullamore Dew). It's a glorious thing to enjoy, while sitting back and relaxing.
I recommend the "Caffe Corretto" or 'corrected' coffee, in which you add only a few drops of liquor to espresso before serving. Afterward, you can "rinse" the cup with more liquor to impart a slight coffee flavor to the shot of alcohol. A way better way of doing it than just dropping whiskey into coffee, if you ask me.
Obviously the thing to point out here is that espresso is a much more sophisticated flavor from pour over coffee, and every bean/roast is going to impart their own flavor notes that are unique
I was stationed in Italy for 2 years. They have Café correctio (probably butchered that). I always loved the name, correct your caffeine with some alcohol .Being Italy, the go to was either amaretto or for the hard core, grappa.
You guys were almost there. You have to steep the coffee in the whiskey itself. I make cold brew coffee with whiskey (no water) and keep a bottle in the fridge. You put it on the rocks with a float of cream and you got the best Irish Coffee ever.
Are they barrel aging the coffee before or after roasting? Before seems like it would get lost in the roasting process unless it's a long age, typically aged coffee is a year or more. While after the coffee is going to go stale (up to 8 weeks they said, coffee goes stale in 2, maybe a bit longer if there's absolutely no oxygen getting in).
Try a peated single malt whiskey. A good scotch or Connemara peated Irish whiskey. Connemara is my favorite for this. Mix it in equal parts with a strong black coffee preferably made by pour over or French press and only subtly bitter at most. Then sweeten to your taste with pure maple syrup and sip hot. Also goes great alongside a stack of fresh buckwheat pancakes with butter and maple syrup and some good bacon.
The sipping cream moon shine especially the butter pecan works grate with coffee The strawberry and orange version work even better with hot chocolate.
I love Rye in my coffee. I live in the frozen north and I wonder if climate/location helps the flavor or if it just sucks to be in Canada and I am an alcoholic.
The grizzled detective isn't drinking this mixture for a good flavor, he does it because he's an alcoholic.
Yeah the whole premise is wrong. It's in the coffee cup to hide it..
And he needs that liquor so bad, that he'll drink some disgusting coffee, just for camouflage.
..... and it makes for good (?) TV.
Truth
Isn't it also usually in the morning, and he's pouring into last night's leftover coffee that's gone cold? The bourbon makes the harsh bad leftover coffee taste less bad, and also blunts the hangover.
His taste buds are long dead, like his ability to love. ever since that dame walked out of his life.

I wonder what coffee cold brewed in bourbon would be like...
@@daddyspooge1 It's fantastic. I keep a bottle of it in the fridge. Mix it with a little cream. nice.
Trust me on this one:
1.5 oz bourbon
0.5 oz real maple syrup
4 oz cold brew coffee
Shake with ice and strain into your glass
I was gonna suggest cold brew myself.
@@megaexidor it is! The shaken maple syrup creates a foam that's just amazing.
Mine is Bourbon, maple syrup and yeah a bit of creamer. That’s my wknd morning

A keurig is like you are restricting yourself to bottom shelf plastic bottle whiskey that's basically dyed paint thinner.

And use a pour over, get that plastic ish outta here

The key to beating the ethanol scent is to pour the alcohol in before the coffee, my go to is either jameson or kirkland canadian whiskey the flavor is amazing and its a verry cheap bottle at $20 for 1.75L so i dont feel bad about mixing it in my morning coctail
We used to do this in Grad School tp take edge off an all-night study session. Two Rules: Strong, Black Macro-brand coffee, and Bourbon. Beam was my go to.
Could you guys try steeping cold brew coffee in whiskey??!! I’d love to see the results, and how they would it would taste diluting it with ice and hot water would change the taste! Would be a great part 2 to this.
I’ve been drinking coffee black for four decades. And scotch almost as long. 😁
Don’t like Irish cream in it like so many people do.
I do like Canadian rye whisky in my coffee occasionally. CC, Gibson’s, Wiser are my most common ryes.
I love scotch, many Irish and some bourbons. None of them in coffee.
Cheers 🇨🇦
I once mixed Buffalo trace into a bourbon barrel aged coffee I got from a local roaster. I thought it was pretty good.
If the primary concern is that the coffee is too hot and watery, maybe try chilling espresso? Espresso martinis are delicious, but I would love a way to substitute whiskey in for the vodka
The UA-cam ad was somehow appropriate today. Right after they described the coffee a 5 second Bushes beans ad started warbling “These are the beans.” then it went back to them making coffee. 😂
Seeing Community makes this Louisiana boy happy!
I drink my coffee black two sugar. I love whiskey in my coffee. Coffee mug, three teaspoons sugar, covered with whiskey on hand, fill with coffee. Repeat as needed! Keep up the good work guys.
As a coffee nerd, I was going to suggest cold brew. You get so much more potent flavor than a drip, lots of sweet and nutty flavors start showing up, and if chilled it'd go really nicely with a bourbon or irish. Nice to see it works as well as I thought! If you want to get more whiskey flavor, you can probably cut that cold brew. I don't know if you cut it there, but typically if it's freshly cold brewed it's going to be just a bit strong. Based on the end there, an espresso might be interesting as well.
I’m literally sitting here drinking black coffee with whiskey in it haha
Not only have y’all talked me into buying sooo many extra bottles of whiskey NOW I just bought a burr grinder, electric kettle, and a chemex to improve my coffee experience...soooo thank you!!!
Fresh coffee beans are more important.
Whatever coffee is left in the pot when I get home (brewed about 6 hours ago), about 1.5 oz Jameson. That has been my preferred "irish coffee" when getting home from work.
While it’s not what I would call “easily accessible” I recommend
Onyx Coffee Lab Eclipse Dark Roast
25g dose @ 1:16 (400mL brewed w/ Kalita Wave 185)
45mL Monkey Shoulder
15mL Turbinado syrup
The notes work really well together
Nose: Burnt caramel, orange, lemon oil
Cup: Toasted Vanilla, Butterscotch, orange peel, and citric acidity with a wee bit of an ethanol burn
I don't mind scotchee every once in a while. You have to pour the scotch first though so the alcohol mixes in to the coffee and doesn't just sit on top.
Thank you for the laugh. The "Goats Overnight" bit broke me a little today.
The best ad ever over many entertaining creative ad reads.
PLEASE do a follow-up where you cold-brew a pitcher of whisk(ey). I'm willing to bet that, much like the difference between hot and cold with the mixers, you will see much different flavors. Just saying... could be fun...
Loved the episode!
You should try Brewers toddy. During a brewday, I often take some of the hot wort and have with some Irish whisky or bourbon.
It also works mixing coffee with wort!
I drink my coffee black and whiskey neat. Wish I could say I found the great equalizer for the mix, but when I'm in the mood it's probably an acquired taste like the sum of it's parts. Letting it cool so the sip isn't an evaporated alcohol inhale helps.
Your most replayed part is the sponsor....wow i love it. you guys rock
I was expecting for it to end with the cold brew being made with a bottle of whiskey, no water.
Google says a Keurig heats water to 192. So you may have just redistilled a dash of that Wild Turkey 101... And the Keurig preheats the next batch of water after brewing, so the seals, likely not rated for ethanol vapor, just dissolved, causing that release you saw.
I love bourbon and straight whiskey in my coffee. I drink WT101 in my coffee every weekend. For a totally different but great experience go with Dickel 12. But the Wild Turkey is where it’s at.
When I have a cold/flu I drink hot Lemsip (hot lemon drink for colds) and whisky. It tastes nice and sorts a cold out really well.
Teeling Small Batch in coffee or chai tea is amazing!
Ive found myself mixing some mr black and 101 for a nightcap on a regular basis recently. I think bourbon and cold brew coffee liquor marries really well
Haven’t watched many of your newer videos. Your (g)oats over night got me laughing, and it’s been a pretty terrible day so far, so that laugh was appreciated
Just had my first 2 whiskeys last night ever at 32 years old. Never drank growing up (personal reasons).
I had a Glenlivet "double oak" single malt, single barrel (12 year I believe) and a monkey shoulder, both neat. Honestly all my pallet could comprehend was alcohol. I did get a little buzz going which was enjoyable. Laughed more than usual (I live alone with my 3 dogs). Slept like a rock which was amazing.
Gonna keep trying because I'm very curious and I just dropped quite a bit of limited cash on whiskey.
While i dont do whiskey and coffee, i have been known to do whiskey and tea with fresh lemon juice and honey, but it's mostly when im feeling a bit under the weather, Tea for the comfort, Honey for the simple carbs to keep your energy up, Lemon to cut through some of the sweetness from the honey and whiskey so you fall back to sleep again or are in no state to care that you're ill
Grind Expresso Shot is Rum @30% with a medium roast.. also a good blend to try if you haven’t tried it
I often add whisk(e)y to my coffee.
If I am going to go black coffee (cold brew is the way to go), cold brew and a really sweet bourbon is my favorite. I use Wild Turkey American Honey. On the odd day I do hot black coffee and whisk(e)y, I tend to add a pour of my An Oa to it.
My sister-in-law said it best, "It takes like hate and salt" after accidentally drinking my coffee. (To add to the sacrilege, the coffee was Café Bustelo).
The other times, when I add whiskey to coffee, it is in an Irish Coffee. Nothing like some lovely heavy cream sweetened with some lovely dark brown sugar, a hearty 2 oz pour of whatever my budget Irish is at the moment (normally Jameson, but sometimes Tullamore Dew). It's a glorious thing to enjoy, while sitting back and relaxing.
I recommend the "Caffe Corretto" or 'corrected' coffee, in which you add only a few drops of liquor to espresso before serving. Afterward, you can "rinse" the cup with more liquor to impart a slight coffee flavor to the shot of alcohol. A way better way of doing it than just dropping whiskey into coffee, if you ask me.
Obviously the thing to point out here is that espresso is a much more sophisticated flavor from pour over coffee, and every bean/roast is going to impart their own flavor notes that are unique
completely unrelated to whiskey but iced black coffee and aged rum is amazing. I imagine a very vanilla-y bourbon might work very well with it too
I actually enjoy mixing hot chocolate mix, coffee, and whiskey. I find it nice. There definitely needs to be some kind of sweetener in there, though.
I was stationed in Italy for 2 years. They have Café correctio (probably butchered that). I always loved the name, correct your caffeine with some alcohol .Being Italy, the go to was either amaretto or for the hard core, grappa.
This just got recommended to me and im telling you, I love this.
You guys were almost there. You have to steep the coffee in the whiskey itself. I make cold brew coffee with whiskey (no water) and keep a bottle in the fridge. You put it on the rocks with a float of cream and you got the best Irish Coffee ever.
Are they barrel aging the coffee before or after roasting? Before seems like it would get lost in the roasting process unless it's a long age, typically aged coffee is a year or more. While after the coffee is going to go stale (up to 8 weeks they said, coffee goes stale in 2, maybe a bit longer if there's absolutely no oxygen getting in).
Try a peated single malt whiskey. A good scotch or Connemara peated Irish whiskey. Connemara is my favorite for this. Mix it in equal parts with a strong black coffee preferably made by pour over or French press and only subtly bitter at most. Then sweeten to your taste with pure maple syrup and sip hot.
Also goes great alongside a stack of fresh buckwheat pancakes with butter and maple syrup and some good bacon.
I honestly love this channel. Cheers gentlemen ☕️ 🥃
The sipping cream moon shine especially the butter pecan works grate with coffee
The strawberry and orange version work even better with hot chocolate.
I love Rye in my coffee. I live in the frozen north and I wonder if climate/location helps the flavor or if it just sucks to be in Canada and I am an alcoholic.
Its funny how the bottle of Tullamore Dew I have is at about the same level as the one used. Did you grab mine off my shelf? :-)
