- Опубліковано 5 вер 2024
- So we posted a poll on facebook and asked what everyone's favorite daily whiskey was. Basically what whiskey do you reach for more often. Usually these bourbons or whiskeys tend to be available and affordable whiskey. So we took the top 4 affordable bourbons and put them in a blind whiskey taste test!

I totally prefer the live stream set for whiskey wars. Just seems to work better for this format.
Yes I prefer this set the live stream set for whiskey wars
LOL, "It's like corn hole, with glen cairns..." Call it Cairn Hole.
one of the greatest sources of sadness in all of candy is that they stopped producing cream savers.
I think that a good mixture of both. What you did here with the consensus works without the distractor of the comments. But there needs to be a place for whiskey wars during live streams. The witty back and forth is always awesome! The demographic you two have is what keeps us coming back! Great show
Can't say much about Early Times since I've never seen it near me, but I'd pick WT101. I prefer the flavor profile of Eagle Rare, buts it can't be a daily drinker for me since it's limited
Very understandable. Wt 101 is definitely the easiest to acquire of the 4
Early Times isn't readily available in all areas. I've never seen it in a liquor store in Upstate NY. It's hard enough to to find Eagle Rare. lol
“Dude, did I just nail that?” 😂😂
Totally agree with the ET choice. Can't find it in NorCal. Was traveling to Idaho and found ONE, yup just one, at an Oregon liquor store. $22 and yes, it's a liter. Great value and taste good. Thanks for what you do. Keep 'em coming
I dig this set for whiskey wars. I’ve heard nothing but great things about ET BIB. I was traveling last week and found one.... omg, it’s amazebalz
I mightve said early times if i had ever seen a bottle of it in person before.
Aidan, where do you live? I haven't ever seen a bottle either and I live in NC.
Find a cost plus shipping group on the book of faces. Even secondary markets its not marked up above retail more than a couple dollars. For the price keep in mind as well its a liter bottle not a 750ml
@@brandon_sprague i live in a state where you cant order online sadly. I would have to have it shipped into a store
@@brianmccaffrey1291 minnesota
Ive never seen it either.
ETBIB just isn’t widely available here yet. Will buy some when I see it.
Biff spiked the punch at the dance in Back to the Future with Early Times.
That dang biff
A time travel joke...
Really like how intimate this set is. Seems great for this.
Now ET BIB is even gonna be harder to find. Thanks guys!! That’s why I put 101 in the poll.
Who's lucky enough to have Eagle rare as a DD. Where do I need to move to? lol
Good ole Michigan
Eagle Rare is a gimmie. So much different from 101 and Trace. Never had Early Time so I cant speak to that. 101 will be a hard oak twang, spice and tobacco bite. Trace to a lesser extent of 101. Now mix them.together with a scoop of vanilla ice cream in a cleaned pickel jar. Guzzle it down quicky and try to hide the shame. There you have the "Float of Self Loathing". Enjoy!🤟😃🤟
.............wtf.
Eagle rare so much different than Buffalo Trace? Umm....................
No.......
I'm playing catch-up on videos because of business but I will offer this observation: When we voted Early Times was not available where I am in AL so I couldn't vote for it, so I voted for ER. So I think that is what might have happened for some people because I love ER, but Early Times is my new favorite right now! Great video you guys!
I love the buffalo trace as a daily. It’s that sippity doo dah lol
This set is better for the wars. The content comes across more focused. Sound is great, and your guys interaction are great. Great video!!!
I weirdly prefer the other setup for all your actual UA-cam videos. It makes them seem more produced and official rather than casual like the livestreams. Bottom line, I love whatever you guys do wherever you guys do it. Also love how you put the names of the whiskey on the screen so I can take you seriously 😉😂lmao
Thanks for the honest feed back.
"Like Cornhole, but with Glencairns." Earned my like!
I'm just glad he didn't break them
I think this is the first time that I have all of the bourbons being evaluated. Love them all. Eagle Rare and Buffalo Trace are so good, but also really like the Early Times BiB. Can't go wrong with any of these. I just switch back and forth.
I just finished my WT101, and it was great. I need to replace that and the Early Times.
I'd watch you guys even if you went back outside to the 'rona table and Dan stayed on the wrong side...it's just pure fun. Daily drinkers, Larceny SB, Weller SR, Old Forrester's SB, and Old Ezra 7.
Too hot out for that now we learned today
Was literally thinking I like the mic set up you're trying out and you asked in the video at that moment for feedback on the mics. It's a keeper.
I also have never seen Early Times BiB. Regular ET, but not the BiB.
As a blue collar worker providing for my family on a budget, my go to sippers are EW BiB and WT101. Fantastic. Ive had more expensive and cant justify spending the cash for the diminishing returns. I'll also have EW Black for mixing.
I Drink all four. My pallete prefers 101 over Early times. Ther is no bad pour in the bunch really.
Yea I'd drink any of those and be happy
Amazing whiskey war guys! The audio is great on this setup and it is a little more like a fireside chat when you are seated. I vote for this format.
“This intermission is brought to you by Raw Stupidity” will be my favorite commentary of 2020.
We have a lot of the year to top that still
Have y'all ever made a video on the best way to enjoy bourbon? What brings out the best in these bottles that y'all talk about? I'm enjoying the channel. Cheers!
Only problem is that ER is at least double the price of the others when you can find it here in my part of Michigan. I’ve seen it as high as $48
I think I like the other set more but I do do the quality of the audio in that room. Especially with Sean always adding his two cents. 😂
As much as people will hate. Eagle Rare, atleast my bottle , burnt tires on the nose. Sean nailed it.
Edit: so I opened the ER bottle I have. It isn't the nose so much. Nose is pretty good. The taste is ehh... that's where I get burnt tires or dirt. It's like acidic dirt. Very earthy. I guess some people are into that. I see the grape thing you are talking about , but it's like the worst artificial grape I have ever tasted.
I have bought three bottles of ER, each was thin and hot. No more.
Loved this video. I agree it is a close 1st and 2nd on those bottles. I agree I like the hut for these videos!! Thanks for content
I like the big ass table. But over all I think this setup is way cooler. Your logo is sick and the new mics are next level!
I've never seen Early Time BIB in my area. I love WT 101!
It seems they have some.very scattered distribution on that. It's also smaller than I think it is too.
Two things: 1, I’m not surprised ET won, but you both described it as grassy and that’s not a good note for me. 2, I was writing my Sunday Funday Review of McKenna 10 last night and got a cherry Creme Saver note on it. Funny we both leaned to the old school candy
We need a “Did I Nail That” and “Raw Stupidity” glens.
Live stream set works well for the wars. And the squirrel moments in this video cracked me up!
Dan, definitely nailed the Backstreet Boys. Felt like i was watching a live concert.
I'll add in my opinion on the flight, for what it's worth (absolutely nothing). I enjoy the standard BT. I know it's already low proof, but I like to add a drop of water. Just rounds the edges off just enough.
Cheers!
You like what you like, we're about people just drinking whiskey!
I feel like Dan could be a character from A Bugs Life.
He's hopper
8:55 - Cream Saver!
This set is superior for the more intimate series like Whiskey War and Collector's Corner. Also great video and 4 of my daily bottles. I have blinded the same set previously and came out with the same ranking. Great job as always!
Time for a glencairn flip into the flight box. Turn the box sideways so that the holes are in a line. Different point values for different hole (a la skeeball)
PS. I think this set works better for wars. If you disagree, you're wrong. :)
My personal ranking:
Old Forester Signature
Wild Turkey 101
Knob Creek Small Batch
Buffalo Trace
Early Times
For some reason Early Times taste very young to me.
It's that floral/green note in it. I can see how people see that as a young note
Well done guys. I like this style I think I personally prefer the other style just because I feel like I’m more used to it. But either way you guys always put out great videos!
I’ve had all those except early times...can’t find it out here in the 916
What is your ranking without the early times?
Bourbon Junkies I would say for me #1 Eagle Rare #2 Buffalo Trace #3 Wild Turkey 101 and I would add Elijah Craig as #4
Love ET BIB for its smoothness and depth, but it's a bit sweet. Try mixing it 1:1 with Old Forester Rye...WOW
That's an interesting mixture
2:27 water is good for your heart ❤
No, water rusts your throat! 🤣
this format is best for whiskey wars....stay on task and get it done with no interuptions
I prefer this set for the whiskey wars. Sean, since you are the spokesman for ET, can you get them to start distributing to FL?
Lol I wish I had pull like that.
Love you guys! Thanks for the great content during this time. I have a question, not concerning these bottles, but concerning Russell's Reserve Single Barrel. Is there anywhere on the bottle where it says what warehouse the bottles come from? Can you discern if any came from Camp Nelson A or F?
I think only store picks have a warehouse location.
Still like the idea for getting Barrel Raised to make you Whiskey War glasses with the letters on the glass! Also, love the live stream set for these kinds of videos.
Yea we need to do that for Dan, he'll still fuck it up though.
Buffalo Trace is thin and the finish tastes and smells like ethanol. I bought a bottle after weeks of searching. Tried it once and put it on the shelf where it still sits.
Cocktail whiskey
Best whiskey? Skies the limit. Whichever one you want. Cheers
ET BIB is the stuff.
I've had some pretty excellent bottles of Eagle Rare. Otherwise I agree with this assessment
Good thing Dan didn't squish that bug 😂
You guys are hilarious 😆. Enjoy your shows.
Dan; your voice sounds a lot like Big Chief from Street Outlaws 🤔😆
I vote for this set for whiskey wars - other set is perfect for bottle reviews / price discussion
Thanks!
like this set more for eveything
Early Times BIB was the lowest because it isnt readily available so most of us havent had it and cant have it as a daily drinker..and yes Daniel we have had this conversation before on FB....prefer no mikes in screen seems more like natural interaction between the 2 of you...audio is always fine
Love the video! Audio and set up is awesome with this set! I thought ER might take the win, cheers 🥃
Just guessing Early Times might have been lowest on the crowd sourced list because of distribution. I've never seen it on the shelf.
Yea that's what a lot of people mentioned that they just can't get it. Which is a bummer.
Love the live set! And the Backstreet Boys lyric was an added treat. 😂😂
Early Times BiB is my JAM. Best daily in the business.
We already knew how you felt about it 😂
I can never find eagle rare here in FL, but I have been able to get buffalo trace
Hey. Great review! Haven't tried *early times BIB* but you definitely made me want to find it. Cheers!!! (Regina)
The background music is a jam!
I like the other set I think. I like when you are more mobile
"fuck a salad!" had me dying!!
You guys, really are the best!! I do like this location, its comfortable!
Came for the bourbon. Stayed for the Backstreet Boys..... 😂
Yeah. Less bottle flipping on Dan's part. 😂😂
Evan Williams Vintage is my go-to.
Haha the proof is in the pour. Thanks gents
I would love to vote for Early times, if I could ever find it.
Someone said it's only in 17 states, not sure if it's true or not, but I'd believe it.
16:01 best part of the video
I really though he broke a Glen at first
Eagle Rare isn’t easy to find in AZ. When you do it’s way overpriced. It, therefore, is not a daily drinker here.
Randy Carlson the Whole Foods on mayo blvd. in Scottsdale always has Eagle Rare. You have to ask for it at the specialty department.
Randy Carlson it’s also $31
No kidding? I’m at that store at least once a week and have never seen it. I’ll def ask about it next time. Only place I’ve seen it is at Gary’s liquor and it’s waaaay marked up. Can order it from Drizly, from Gary’s for $59.99! Get real Gary’s! 😂
Can't find the Early Times in my area
wow! I passed that up the other day I'm on my way to get some early times!
Can't sleep on it, truly a great cheap pour.
Love this setup. Mics are awesome
Reading the comments, is Early Times allocated? Seems a lot of folks can't find it. It's everywhere here in Houston. I bought a bottle a month ago based on all the good things I'd read/heard about it, but I haven't gotten into it yet. Finishing off my Knob Creek and Old Forester 86 first.
It's going to be harder to find since they sold to Sazerac
Use this set. I like it and it feels more focused
This is the better set for wars.
This was fun. Do more of these. Like this set by the way.
Funny how 2 of these bottles have changed since
I like the audio quality better, but I personally don’t love the lean ins into the microphones. Great video and ET BiB for the win!
Working on it, and thanks!
"Its like cornhole but with glencairns" lmaoooo
He's a child, a child with a flamethrower.
Would have loved seeing Old Forrester 100 replace the Trace
I like that set up
Puppy!
how about you guys make an infinity bottle of your favorite store picks???
I like this set but strongly prefer the audio from the lav mics.
Yea Dan had to mess with it a bit cause I apparently can't use those mics right. Work in progress ya know.
Very well done! Sad to say 3 out of 4 of these can be hard to find in many areas. I’ve only seen Eagle Rare once and it was $60. Hard pass. Early Times has limited distribution and Buffalo is getting harder to find.
Maybe do another with easy to find stuff? Old Forester Signature, Knob Creek SB, Elijah Craig SB, Evan Williams BiB, Wild Turkey, ect.
All of these can be had for within dollars of retail on secondary. Eagle Rare may be getting a tad touchier, but it also just sits in gas stations around here for long periods of time.
ER sitting on gas station shelves....meanwhile everywhere else it flies off shelves like free candy if it’s priced under $50. Wherever you live, sir, I need to visit.
Good ole Michigan!
This set. Mic is too hot. No music while talking please. Great review. Early Times. Who knew.
Yeah this looks better!
Early Times, a whiskey I've never seen locally
Wait, I don't get it, is Sean bad at using the mic because he's not bouncing around and adjusting it constantly?
Great flight! Turkey is one of my favorite every days. Early Times BIB isn’t available in my area yet, but I’ll definitely pick some up when I find it.
Whiskey wars on this set is the way to go👍
