Matt, I don't even know why you even bother to do blind reviews. As the best taster on the planet, you probably already know what was in the glass just by tasting the air 10 feet away. 😝Good video man.
Guess I'll have to fork over $330 and buy one. The best bourbon I've ever had was the 2018 Colonel Taylor barrel proof, I really hope the owl is just as good 🙏. Thanks for the content Matt
Yeah. I got really really lucky with these ones. I know that not everyone can find these, and it sucks, but the point of the video is to compare the absolute best bourbons out there.
I've been binging your channel for the last few days. And I gotta say, I absolutely love it. Especially your humor and bourbon.....Especially the bourbon. Cheers
I know a store with 3 bottles of Kentucky Owl bourbon at 300 a bottle is that a good price? I need to win lotto or have a rich relative die and leave me money to get them. Prefer the lotto deal.
No other tasting note will EVER top “a saddle that was ridden by Jessica Simpson in the Dukes of Hazzard all day...pretty damn good, if you ask me.” Love your reviews buddy! Keep knocking ‘em outta the park Matt!
ADHD Whiskey do yourself a favor and search “one of the best movie scenes EVER (Joe Dirt)” and tell me that saddle isn’t right there with Jessica Simpson. You’ll agree, I guarantee it!
Whewwwww! That was close! Completely agree with you, which is saying a lot knowing how much I love one of those lines! Love all the terms that keep being added to the Mattionary too! Butt flubbing:):):):)
Tickle Torture, I now want a wrestler to name their finisher this, it has to be brutal looking like a Tombstone Piledriver but it’s called Tickle Torture by the commentary.
I spotted a bottle of Kentucky Owl out the corner of my eye behind the service counter as I was leaving the grocery store yesterday. It wasn't in the bourbon case, it was under watchful eye by the Dom. I had to back up and stop up the out flow to make sure I wasn't hallucinating, but there it was. I didn't catch the price, but I'm going to go back today to see. I need to watch the "hiding bourbon from your wife" video a few more times before I figure out how to take that bad boy home. I'm going to have to extort a whole lot of Skittles money.
I'm digging all your videos. The humor, your description of flavor profiles, and the sweet melodies in the background that make me feel like I'm at Belk shopping for a new pair of slacks.
I have watched most of your videos. Comedic genius! You are hilarious man! You give great tasting note while keeping me entertained throughout! Great job keep up the good work!
I used to buy rip van winkle at thrice the price until I discovered Kentucky owl batch bourbons. Hands down the best bourbon I’ve ever tasted and probably ever will. I like blended bourbons for consistency bottle after bottle. The last bottle of rip van winkle was an expensive dissapointment
have you tried Woodford Reserve Batch Proof? mine is only 123.6 proof but it's the best bourbon i've ever had! i'd like to send you a sample if you haven't tried it. maybe it can compete in the heavyweight division...
New subscriber... stumbled upon the 5 bourbon s ya need on hand. Good Lord, where have ya been all my bourbon life?!! Been laughing my ass off all night catching up on all the vids.
I'd say that you are the winner, good sir, after having tested those two super heavyweights. Also for almost being at 5k subs. Cheers to you and your damn blueberries 🥃
I just stopped on at a small local liquor store and they had one Kentucky owl Bourbon on the shelf by the counter. Now I’m kicking myself for not checking the batch. F#%K!
@@ADHDWhiskey i may not end up a Kentucky Owl batch 9, but can damn sure become a bottle worth sharing. Also, thank you very much for the helpful suggestions on hiding wine from one’s wife. You have mailed me quite a few awesome bottles!!! 😂
Well, I can't find EH Taylor Barrel Proof anywhere in my area, but I can get the Owl. This video has pushed me over the edge to buy it. I love the texture of the Owl labels. I've only had the Rye before so hoping the bourbon doesn't disappoint....
Great show Matt! I thought when those two big guys were slugging it out that it might go 12 rounds. That submission hold must be strong, but not strong enough for the next contender for the championship belt...... he’s been training for 12yrs, he’s got a wide chest, he’s heavy handed, he’ll hug you like no other, and he’s ready to knock out that dirty bird out cold..........EEEEEEELLLLLIJAAAAAAAAH Craig Barrel Proof batch B520!
@@ADHDWhiskey There’s a local shop that I go to that doesn’t have many unicorns but I found a bottle of Stagg Junior Batch 15 sitting on the shelf the other day all by itself. It was like it was glowing! $49.99! Can’t wait to try it all the reviews have been through the roof.
KO Batch 9 retail-$280-$300 EHT BP retail-$90, although we all know retail is hard to come by but still. Plus I am pissed off I will never see a KO Batch 9 :)
Yeah....prices are hard to compare since MSRP on the EH Taylor is lower but sells for more on Secondary than the Owl retails for. All I can say is that if the Owl retailed for $90 it would also sell for 400 on secondary. I agree....the pricing game sucks
@@elvisfreshly5977 California has some odd pricing, Blanton's seems to sell for the stupidest prices in the US. I recently offered anybody who could get me a KO Batch 9, Old Carter batch 5 or Sam Houston 14 to me in Ontario, I would give them an ETL, Blanton's Gold and a Weller 12 (3 for 1) which combined cost me $205 Cad in Ontario. Bourbon distribution/pricing in North America is frustrating as hell :)
Thought I heard every possible tasting note until Matt said saddle ridden by Jessica Simpson lol.
Sounds so good
Jason C...let’s make it perfectly clear...we are specifically talking about Dukes of Hazzard Jessica Simpson, not today’s Jessica Simpson!
That one snapped my head around too! And definitely what Scott said! Lol
I don’t know what it says about me, that I enjoy watching some random guy compare two bottles I’ll never find or taste
It says....shit....i don't know either
would be funny if this was the Kentucky Owl bottle Matt filled up with Old Grand Dad 114
Haha! That one is in my belly
Ohh.. I want some of that glorious Jessica Simpson leather saddle sat on liquid in my mouth.. 😜
Matt, I don't even know why you even bother to do blind reviews. As the best taster on the planet, you probably already know what was in the glass just by tasting the air 10 feet away. 😝Good video man.
Lol! I try not to figure out what they are...just what I am enjoying more. I confuse the heck out of myself if I get too confident haha
Matt trim that beard, your mother is starting to worry about your health.
Its happening this weekend
That is the longest finish I've ever seen, said this very comfortable man, to another man... he has never met... who is on the internet.
All super comfortable
“Watching fat people cringe when they drink scotch” lmao!!! Pure gold Matt

Buckle Up!!
Lol
Dude, you're so much my comedy..."it tastes like leather, from a saddle, that Daisy Duke rode". So funny!
Request: If you haven't done so, can you do store picks vs general release? Please and thank you!

Thank you for watching!!
This tastes like a saddle ridden by Dukes Jessica Simpson is the best line ever on UA-cam
Butt smells like Catherine Bach!!
This is such mood. You have a new subscriber here. Keep up the good work!!👍
That Owl is selling for like $400 on the market....and I don't have a friend named Jack Johnson.
Yeah. I got really really lucky with these ones. I know that not everyone can find these, and it sucks, but the point of the video is to compare the absolute best bourbons out there.
@@ADHDWhiskey Glad you are getting them. At least you are enjoying them not trying to resell them.
I’ll just be happy with my mellow corn 🤪

A little too close! Cheers Julester!!
Anyone else realize that this is Batch 9 vs Batch 9?? Lol!!
How is the Owl batch 8 compared to 9?
My god man.. how you don't have 100k subscribers I have no idea.
😄 🤣 hahaha not a chance that many people find this shit worth watching!
Matt...you make my daily breakfast enjoyable! Love the blueberry/bourbon fire hose/runoff comment! Enjoy your reviews, you son of a beotch
Tickle Torture, I now want a wrestler to name their finisher this, it has to be brutal looking like a Tombstone Piledriver but it’s called Tickle Torture by the commentary.
Hahaha its 2020....it could happen
Kentucky Owl is $399.00 in PA! OMG.
Dude is hysterical. Driving up to NH next week and purchasing a bottle of batch #9, G-d willing it's in stock!
You've come a long way with these reviews, Matt. Top shelf reviews!
Thanks so much!
Did you do a blind with your EC BP C919 against this Kentucky Owl ?? Might be a good one

Four Gate Whiskey Company Batch 6
I have watched most of your videos. Comedic genius! You are hilarious man! You give great tasting note while keeping me entertained throughout! Great job keep up the good work!
Never had the Kentucky Owl brother. May pick one up this weekend!
Head to head with old carter bourbon batch 5
If I get a bottle.....its ON!
You Da Man Matt!!
Best whiskey reviewer .... Hands Down
Old CARTER NEXT
Gonna need to get my hands on one of those! Maybe when I go to KY in November
I think someone should make you some belts for your winners!
That would be spectacular lol

Great video
Brought home a bottle of Makers Mark 101 last night. I'm putting up against Wild Turkey 101, you should too!
Not a bad idea! Gonna need to find one of those makers
have you tried Woodford Reserve Batch Proof? mine is only 123.6 proof but it's the best bourbon i've ever had! i'd like to send you a sample if you haven't tried it. maybe it can compete in the heavyweight division...
I have and I agree. It is DELISH!

That makes me soooo happy to hear!!
i dont subscribe often. but 3 min in, you've won me. and before you ask, i did finish the entire review. great job! just picked up EHT BP myself.
Awesome! Thanks Roberto!!!
Now compare it against old carter batch 5. I'll stay tuned...
I'll see what I can do!
What eventually beat out Batch #9 or was there ever a winner for that???
Still the king!
Another entertaining Match Matt. Now how about running the champ against George T. Stagg, the great BTAC hope?👍
Need to get me one!
Love the muzak.... 🥃 I can only subscribe once but you gave me tones of reasons to.👍🇺🇸
Haha you the best Emil!
Cant find either one of those. Jealous.
Owl being 220 more means it's not worth your time Matt! Jessica's Simpson's sweat probably tastes amazing haha.
Gotta taste soooooo good
I'd say that you are the winner, good sir, after having tested those two super heavyweights. Also for almost being at 5k subs. Cheers to you and your damn blueberries 🥃
Cheers to you, Mark!
Gotta do a bourbon skirmish with stagg jr batch 15 imma right?
Hope I get my hands on one!
I just stopped on at a small local liquor store and they had one Kentucky owl Bourbon on the shelf by the counter. Now I’m kicking myself for not checking the batch. F#%K!
Go check, lol. But remember...KO Confiscated is NOT the KO Bourbon I'm talking about here
ADHD Whiskey .. I’m back at the store right now and it’s mother friken Batch 9!!! It’s $300 though, what do I dooooo
Thanks for the thoughtful advice on only bottling good emotions.
Pretty good advice, right!?

That is a great matchup.....but.....Owl 9 beat ECBP 520 to win the belt
Man..... how did I miss that? Must be losing it!
Damn old carter batch 5 too low proof to take on the KO9. Can’t think of anything outside of some dusty GTS.
Old Carter batch 5 fo sho
Need to try it
I need to try that... especially the Daisy Dukes part
Thats the best part
Dan and julie you wanna be friends?
Find your own Dan and Julie!!! Lol
would love to see this against bookers 30th
Oh man! Wish I had one!!
That was world class letter assignment rationale.
Its all coming together
The Jessica Simpson saddle !! Killing me. 🤣🍻

peter white I think I bought mine for 300 at Total Wine and I’ve seen a few at liquor stores going for 350 each or 2 for 600
That plunger line LMAO
How about a head to head KO #9 to KOK 2020?
Bourbon skirmish!!
Its going down!!
WOW!
That was a HOOT!

KOK
If I ever get a bottle it will happen immediately. Hopefully this year!
