Ditto. I just started following this channel. So glad they were sent these and did this video. Also that they gave a shout out to Westland. So many great whiskeys coming out of the PNW. Also a fan of Fremont and Cadée, “from the Isle of Whidbey”! :D
I went out and purchased a bottle after this review. Right from the start I noticed a pleasant aromatic scent. Then after my first sip I noticed it tasted more like an 8 year than a 5. Easy sipper. Surprisingly I'm a Kentucky bourbon fan. But I like this alot. I can see this being on my shopping list. I'm a 4 roses small batch and a Belle mead cherry casks bourbon drinker. Every now and then you find a winner on the shelves. I'm drinking this warm no ice. I can see ladies liking this as well. Men don't worry it's got a high ABV content without the ripe bite. You will like it.
YAY Woodinville!!! I’ve been enjoying their whiskey for some time and recently got ahold of bottles of some barrel picks of their barrel strength bourbon and rye. YUMMMM!!!! I’ve lived almost my entire life in the Pacific Northwest and feel very blessed. 🥃🥳
Glad you like our local Whisky. I love it, and always haul my Whiskey-loving out-of-town visitors over to the distillery for tasting. They all go in with low expectations, and walk out with at least one bottle to take home.
woodinville makes my favorite rye ever. read the story on the back. they move it around the state to change the climate so they age in a heat and dryness similar to texas .
My wife and I were in Seattle 2 weeks ago and hit 6 distilleries. Woodenville and Westland were two. We took the tour given by the master distiller at Woodenville and were able to try and buy the port. It's amazing. We also chatted up one of the women doing the tastings and she went in and took a small sample right off the still of new make. Best new make we've ever tasted. They really are doing amazing things up there. Freemont Mischief, 2 bar, Oola, Blackfish, Dryfly all great Washington distilleries. Bull Run, Bend Distillery, Wander back, Westward, Ransom, Pioneer, 4 Spirits, New Basin are all amazing Oregon Distilleries!
Big props fellas for the Woodinville folks, been a fan since they opened, and due to the fact the two stepsons live nearby we are there every time we visit. Have four bottles from them, including two from there first run. Enjoy fellas.
I was blow away by their whiskeys about 4-5 years ago and they continually impress. I'm also happy their distribute lines have expanded and at a $35 starting price point. I consider it my perfect American Whiskey.
I have bought the lighter one and it is one of the best bourbons I have ever tasted. They were taste testing one of these bottles at the ABC, and it was amazing.
I went to the Woodinville distillery two weeks ago. All we tasted were outstanding but the best was the port finished. Bought a bottle for $47.40 including WA tax. I read that WA is tied with TX for the largest number of craft distilleries.
Thanks for all the love for the Northwest, you're starting to make me blush!!! I'm trying to stay humble and not get a big head you know! But you're making it a bit difficult. I loved San Antonio when I was there in the 80's!🤘🎸😎⚡☠
Washington Native here. Finally got the pleasure of having this whiskey for the first time while watching your review. Not normally a rye guy, but this has just enough for a good bite but not overpowered as well. Very enjoyable!
Lived there for 3 years on English Hill and could walk home from their place. Sitting here drinking it now and smelling their candle, yes Woodinville Whiskey candle, and its GREAT. What is awesome about this place is that their food is awesome which is next door to like 200 other wine and spirit places including Chateau St. Michelle's headquarters which is STUPID nice. I miss that place EVERYDAY.
I'm so happy you guys got your hands on some bottles from Woodinville! My friends and I actually found them back when they were working out of an industrial park across from their current location and I've always felt they had the only bourbon I've ever liked. I'm dying to try this port cask finish if I can get my hands on it.
Great little distillery. The regular Bourbon is great. I will have to get the Port Cask version. You get a nice picture on the back label through the bottle and they also make a very interesting vodka that has a lot of vanilla flavors, without being infused.
I just now am trying to get into whiskey tasting. And after watching a lot your shows I got me some Monkey Shoulder. I kept hearing you guys talk about butterscotch smell with Monkey Shoulder. And after a week of trying that and four roses and Buffalo Trace I went back to monkey shoulder tonight and for the 1st time I smelt the sweetness of butterscotch. I got giddy like a schoolgirl, I wanted to thank you guys, for getting me into tasting the whiskey instead of drinking whiskey. I still excited I finally smelled it and can’t wait to pick out some flavors.
Welcome to party guys!! That port finished bourbon is a rare, distillery only release. I have to send you their cask strength versions of their offerings. Prepare to have your mind blown. Yes, I'm a fan boy of this distillery but wait until you see what is coming next from Woodinville......
My favorite bourbon is out of Woodinville WA as well called JP Trodden. They have 3 bourbons that are all fantastic. The story behind the name is good as well.
I also agree with you guys about the Pacific northwest coming out with excellent whiskey options. I live in Portland and there's around a dozen distillers right in the area. I'd recommend the Buckman reserve of the Burnside line of whiskeys made by East side distillery or Westland single malt finished in stout casks
Have you had Bull Run's Oregon Single Malt? It's my absolute favorite. For Father's Day, my wife hunted down a bottle of their cask strength Oregon Single Malt, and I've been nursing it since :)
@@AdamPFarnsworth YES Bull Run' s operation is right around the corner from the tasting room that I work at. Those guys came out with a bourbon that was finished in Italian sweet vermouth barrels that was super unique too but I agree the single malt is good.
@@davidgraney3413 Rock on! I have a bottle of the vermouth finished bourbon as well :) (Full disclosure, I'm not really into it, but it was a fun experiment)
@@AdamPFarnsworth Good guess you clearly know the area but no. I work at the East Side tasting room that opened up between Southland and the Matador. We are just right around the corner from Bull Run. I really had to agree with the whiskey vault guys cause they're right. The NW has some great emerging distillers and I hope in years to come people think of us they was they think of Kentucky.
Another Washingtonian here, and Woodinville is just a stone's throw from me. Their port cask bourbon is absolutely beautiful. I don't buy it that often, but it's a wonderful special occasion bourbon for me.
Live about 8 min away from their distillery and am guilty of stopping by after work a few times 👍 not a huge fan of their rye, but the bourbon is excellent
I really enjoy the double barrel. Did a couple of tastings up there and enjoy the port barrel aged but always go back to the double barrel... they are a small, fairly young company/team but make some great whiskey!
Went down to the Woodinville Whiskey Distillery after watching your video. Bought a bottle of the cast strength and port cask. . . and spent an hour in the tasting room 😉
Actually, I think Gordon is.... "Also Known As Government Issued" so it is "AKA GI". On the Pacific North West issue... depending on how far the distilleries are from the coast they get a lot more rain up there (compared to California where I live), although east Washington is fairly dry due to the rain-shadow effect of the Cascade Mountains. If the distilleries are more western they may have a more Scotland-like climate (but with more trees) which may give them a more moderate aging and maturation time so more gradually developed flavors, in comparison to the intensity of Texas. Just a theory... would be interesting to look deeper into the topic.
You are correct. I live in spokane. More akin to Ireland or England, than Scotland. Gets very humid during the summer, but also very temperate. Very distinct seasonal change. Only difference is, we are high desert over. Seattle for the most part even during the winter can stay fairly mellow. It doesn't rain as much as people think. Lots of cloud cover. It's not till you get over to the Olympic peninsula and to the hoh forest when it rains a lot. Hence, having a rain forest
The Woodinville distillery actually trucks their barrels over the Cascades so they get more extreme temperature cycles. In contrast, Westland ages their single malt in Western Washington which as you said is more Scotland-like.
Erik, both Woodinville and Westland distill here in the Puget Sound but they age their whiskeys on opposite sides of the Cascades. Westland ages their whiskey in Hoquiam which is near the coast in sw Washington. Woodinville ages their whiskey in Quincy which is in central Washington which is considered desert plains.
Here's a question... Scotland is a small country next to England that is famous for whiskey. Ireland is a small country next to England that is famous for whiskey. England is a larger country in the exact same area as the other two, but as far as I (admittedly a very new whiskey-drinker) know, there's virtually no whiskies out of England. What gives? England certainly has the population & manufacturing-expertise & diverse regions to be able to create a whiskey industry with unique, interesting, locale-specific variety, but I've literally never heard of an English whiskey (again, very new to whiskey). Is it because the English only like beer & sherry? Is it a historical side-nation thing somehow? This just struck me as weird. Thanks. :)
I've seen Ralfy review a couple English whiskeys, but I couldn't tell you which episode. I think he was at an event where he talked to the rep about their offerings. I don't think Ralfy was particularly impressed. They were malt whiskeys so they probably didn't stand out. For a reasonable price; $50 or less imo, it's hard to beat Scotch and Bourbon from a big distillery. Craft distilleries do a better job at unique spirits, in which case you're mostly on your own. Watching the whiskey vault helps, but you'll probably have to take a chance buying a bottle if you're curious about a distillery with low distribution
@@leonardfrykman3431 ^This. By and large, the English mass market drinks were gin, beer and claret (they made up their own term because they couldn't pronounce bordeaux). Things have diversified in the last 50 years, but gin and vodka are still mighty popular. Plus, why make your own whisky when there are so many Scotches available right next to England?
If you’re ever in the Pacific Northwest, perhaps visiting woodinville’s distillery which is just outside of Seattle, Von’s 1000 Spirits in downtown Seattle serves a very local small batch whiskey called Boss Bourbon that I really enjoy. Sharp’s Roast House also serves it. I think those are the only two places to try it.
There's a whiskey tasting room in the Portland airport. I think the distillery is called Westward. I'm always in too much of a hurry to stop though. I'll have to take the time when I fly there next.
If you guys like the stuff coming out of the PNW you really need to look up Bad Dog Distillery. The rye is my go to, but the new single malt is my new favorite...
Considering how I love the New England area, the other side of the land mass is on my places I want to visit. Oregon is a lush forest paradise and Washington has amazing seafood and atmosphere similar to my home state. Add the fact they are making choice whiskey and welp... I hope I can afford the trip sometime in the not to distant future. Whiskey Tribe Road trip? Also, you mentioned Dry Week and I wanted to be certain it was brought up soon, but after the New Year we will have our dry week once more correct? Looking forward to doing non whiskey related things during that week in my free time. Hope you both had a MAGNIFICENT holiday! 🖖😎
The nice thing about Oregon is that you have the verdant Willamette Valley, but go an hour and a half west and you’re at the beach. Go an hour and a half east from the valley and you’re in the mountains and even further the high desert. There are so many micro climates it’s amazing. The same thing with Washington.
You guys out in Massachusetts have the best IPA breweries. Tree House and Trillium. In my shitty state of NY I got Other Half which makes very comparable IPA's with the New England hops.
Good advice, I’m a sipper and not a drinker. I came to whiskey later in life and I’m glad I didn’t start when I was young and stupid uhhh I mean unwise🤪
I really wonder how the the port cask Woodinville would compare to that of a Joseph Magnus or what the Whisky Crusaders just reviewed the Traverse City port barrel finished whiskey.
Great bourbon, small annoyance, but what's up with their cork on these? Is it just me, or is half the cork peeling off into the bottle after only 1/3rd of the way through it?
We have some of the best beers and whiskey in the world. If you ever move to washington, we'll accept you with open arms. We have hobbit houses, just for you. Literally. Slainté
Hey 'beautiful bastards' and the Whiskey Vault lads, do you have any recommendations for any interesting whisk(e)y from Japan, Ireland, America or Scotland (preferably in that order) around or under 60 US$? I just wanna try a couple of interesting flavoured whisk(e)ys. Thanks-a-bunch!
I'm from Woodinville, this just makes me smile :)
Ditto. I just started following this channel. So glad they were sent these and did this video. Also that they gave a shout out to Westland. So many great whiskeys coming out of the PNW. Also a fan of Fremont and Cadée, “from the Isle of Whidbey”! :D
im from WA state and this made me proud '
Congrats to the distillery and Woodinville citizens on a drink well done

Grew up in Olympia, close enough. And yes makes me smile

If you haven't tried it yet... dont...I have some currently and it's just bad.
Please don't tell everybody about Woodinville. It's a secret and needs to stay that way. Thankyouverymuch. :D
S K I agree. I found it here in Maryland and nobody buys it :) more for me!
If I could just win a BID on a house I would have moved back already. Hoping to be back next summer!

Should I buy a second bottle of this is a rare port finished Whiskey?
@@troyheffernan1261 They made it a regular release now
I live in Woodinville and can walk to this distillery. Love this place and they have lots of variety. This area has a lot more to offer too..
Please come to Washington state and visit the distillers. We also have great wineries. Plus we are a stones throw from Oregon.😀
Oregon makes some of my favorite wines, Washington makes some of my favorite brews. Who knew they could distill, too.

same, the port cask is freakin' delicious. I like it a lot more than their straight bourbon whiskey (which is also quite good)
When talking about the Pacific NW distilleries, one mustn't forget Bull Run. Their Oregon Single Malt is the gold standard.
As a Woodinville resident, these whiskeys are what made me realize I actually like whiskey. Now I love whiskey, and I just joined the Tribe.
Live about 8 min away from their distillery and am guilty of stopping by after work a few times 👍 not a huge fan of their rye, but the bourbon is excellent
Sane on rye, but its heavy rye profile makes a great Old Fashioned.
I really enjoy the double barrel. Did a couple of tastings up there and enjoy the port barrel aged but always go back to the double barrel... they are a small, fairly young company/team but make some great whiskey!
I'm sipping the port finish presently and you guys have it the tasting notes spot on...the oak on the finish makes it presence know and then some.
I live 20 miles away. This is great to hear
Do we see a top 10 Pacific NW Whiskey video coming !?!?
Seattle would be happy to have ya both!
I just walked through their building....awesome company....
This is a really nice bourbon. My friend me a bottle when he came home from a visit to Seattle.

You should try J.P. Trodden, another Whiskey from Woodinville, WA that's excellent in my opinion. It's a very unique tasting bourbon.
I just commented this as well. Love me some JP

There aren't very many consumable products being produced in England that are worth a damn.
Always a plus, interesting, informative and funny. X
I just took the distillers tour that includes a hand poured bottle of 118 proof distillers pick single barrel bourbon.
You guys should take a bit of every bottle in the vault and put it into a barrel new year's day and open it next new years eve
They also have a triple barrel. They take their double barrel and finish it 6 months in an Islay barrel
I tried these at the tasting room in Woodinville. They are excellent!
Ransom was the ones who made The Emerald and they are really nice people.
Another woodinville! Yay!
You have to love the Quincy Valley.

I have drank more Bourbon and Scotch since I subscribed to your channel.... Thanks 'You Magnificent Bastards' guys!
I came for the PNW love.
I was not disappointed.
Dudes! No jokes on the woodinville it smells amazing
Shoutouts to the old hometown distillery! They do some distillery-only cask strength bottlings that I really want to get my hands on.
Love their whiskey. I feel bad for those who can’t get it because they don’t have distribution everywhere.
Texans take pride in the Texas brand, but I think Daniel is coming around to understanding that the PNW is the crown jewel of the US.
Is what you do really work! Don’t ever complain again!
Can't wait to try these bottles out.
Woodinville never disappoints!
Living in the PNW and yeah they are kinda amazing distilleries out here
Considering how I love the New England area, the other side of the land mass is on my places I want to visit. Oregon is a lush forest paradise and Washington has amazing seafood and atmosphere similar to my home state. Add the fact they are making choice whiskey and welp...

I tried the jefferson it was so smooth dont tell people but its better then wellers
I live in Washington so I bought the bourbon and rye. Smells heavily of apples.
The Pac Northwest pays attention to their crafts...whatever they may be.....

Ey, Woodinville had a rep with samples at the liquor store the other day. Some damn tasty Whisky.
This distillery is 5 miles from my house, I’ll have to check it out!
I'm a fan of the Woodinville.
I really wonder how the the port cask Woodinville would compare to that of a Joseph Magnus or what the Whisky Crusaders just reviewed the Traverse City port barrel finished whiskey.
I live very close to this distillery and was wondering how it was, I guess I dont need to wait any longer.
Great bourbon, small annoyance, but what's up with their cork on these? Is it just me, or is half the cork peeling off into the bottle after only 1/3rd of the way through it?
I just picked up a bottle, very tasty indeed!
Live fairly close to there, so going to pick these up.
I like Woodinville rye, I've been wondering if y'all have reviewed Braddock Oak Rye...is it magnificent, I think so
Hey Daniel and Rex
Can you recommend a sweet bourbon and whiskey with light peat,wood notes...the sweeter the better😂😂😂
Thank you for all you do!!!
pacific northwest just kicks ass in general
100%
We have some of the best beers and whiskey in the world. If you ever move to washington, we'll accept you with open arms. We have hobbit houses, just for you. Literally. Slainté
Amen to that, we can always use more hobbits, and our whiskey may just be a worthy lure, even for a mooch.
Here's how to day drink without forming alcohol dependence:
Start a youtube channel
Ahhh! From my home town! Thats so cool!
Just bought some glad to hear it's so good :)))
What's the worst whisk[e]y you guys have ever tried?
I believe emerald is Ransom Spirit
Unique is the word Rex is looking for
didn't they already put a harness on him?
Well....tawny port isn't red. That's ruby port. So the red color didn't come from the port barrel.
You should try their maple syrup. Best. Maple syrup. EVER.
Daniel you need to come up and visit the distilleries and hangout at Lit Cigar Lounge haha

Hey 'beautiful bastards' and the Whiskey Vault lads, do you have any recommendations for any interesting whisk(e)y from Japan, Ireland, America or Scotland (preferably in that order) around or under 60 US$? I just wanna try a couple of interesting flavoured whisk(e)ys. Thanks-a-bunch!
