Easy to tell which is which imo 😂. Blantons has a very approachable profile with a good range of flavors. A very fine sipper & beginner friendly juice. Meanwhile, Ecbp is a face-puncher with bold flavors & spiciness that will make you tear up with joy 😈. Definitely for proof hounds & experienced drinkers, like me 😂.
If Blantons wasn't allocated, it'd cost 49-55$ a bottle, and nobody would give 2 fucks about it..lmao Its totally mid-tier IMHO....but it seems to be something newbies popularize... I'll take Weller 107 (and a few others) all day over Blantons!
Really? Mid tier? Maybe I just haven’t had enough but I haven’t been able to find a bourbon that tastes better than Blantons. What do you think is better? I tried Weller Green and it was like drinking sandpaper.
@@GarbageGoober. The batches are all diff...i maybe got a couple of inferior batches but by mid tier i guess what i meant was that its not worth the hype and the whale hunt most people have to partake in to find it. There are tons of better bourbons...currently am drinking Belle meade Reserve , which i think is better by far
Got a bottle of EC BP at the distillery tour doing ‘pour your own’ and I really like it. I think EC is far more of a leather flavor. Love both bourbons for very different reasons.
I mean comparing these two isn’t even fair. One is at least 130 proof on pretty much ever batch. The other is 90 proof always. Blantons is damn good most bottles and so is ECBP
These bourbons are not close the are polar opposites. Blanton’s is sweet smooth and easy drinking. ECBP is very strong the proof is way high. It is dark and rich. The finish stays a last forever. ECBP is One of the very best. Blanton’s is good but nothing like that.
Honestly... As everyone is pointing out... The proof difference alone should make these VERY different pours... I almost suspect there was a mistake made and they poured you Blantons twice.
ECBP is in a whole different ballpark than Blanton's. After drinking full proof bourbons, Blanton's doesn't even compare. Sure there are some really good batches of Blanton's and some really bad batches of ECBP. But this shouldn't have even been a contest.
Apples and Oranges bruh 😂 Next time do a comparison with less the 30 proof points difference 😂 Try doing less that 10 proof seperating the two... And yes, 9 times out of 10 I'm grabbing the ECBP
It's not about better or worse it's about flavour profile and what yiu want it for. I prefer Middleton veyy rare 2016 to the 2018 but they are both exceptional
Opps… if Blantons is so hated why does it continue to be so hard to find …. Oh cause it’s good . I agree it’s not hundred dollar good but at 60, 70, I’ll buy it
Blanton's overrated compared to EC single barrel or Old Forester Single barrel both Easy to Find but priced more than Blanton's MSRP. Good Luck getting Blanton's at MSRP though 😂, or spend little more and get better Bourbon easily available.
This is a Blanton’s tater channel… somehow the Blanton’s is always just as good or better than what it is put up against… this is clearly not the truth. ECBP’s are hands down better on all levels! The proof makes the flavors pop more and the finish is medium long, while the Blanton’s has next to no finish, as soon as you swallow it the palate needs more to get the flavor of it. It’s one thing to prefer Blanton’s to other bottles, but it’s an entirely different thing to say it’s the king by having it always be just as good or better than another blind pour.
One is 120ish proof and Blanton’s is 90ish. They are apples and oranges. I am tempted to ask why you bothered to make this video but I already know. Blanton’s = clicks
30+ proof difference. Got to be able to tell that on a blind.
You said they are similar except for a couple taste points.
Back to training.
They are the whiskey "noobs"... It checks out
Elijah Craig Barrel proof blows Blanton's completely out of the water
Ecbp being tied with blantons tells me you haven't got much bourbon experience
Exactly this. to know a barrel proof tied a watered down higher rye mashbill is beyond me.
Dude...😂
I think the EC BP was a ton hotter. I got the OLQ batch at 134 proof. But it is really good! I'd take it over blantons, and I really like blantons.

I'll take Weller 107 (and a few others) all day over Blantons!
I should be clear, I pay $60 in OH, so that's the price I'm basing it on - fully agreed Blantons is NOT a $100+ bourbon for most people
@@whiskey_noobs thats a great deal!

Old forester 1920
Let me guess the proof gave it away😅

One is around 130 proof and the other is 93. Telling the difference should be easy.
Why would you compare 2 such drastic proof points?? 🤦🏼😊

EC is my go to for sipping and drinks. Can’t go wrong with the $ and that awesome flavor. Keep these up please
There’s a big proof difference in that. Should be easy as picking between milk or chocolate milk 🥸😂😂
EC barrel strnght taste nothing like blanton with someone with a decent pallet for bourbon
These bourbons are not close the are polar opposites. Blanton’s is sweet smooth and easy drinking.
ECBP is very strong the proof is way high. It is dark and rich. The finish stays a last forever. ECBP is One of the very best. Blanton’s is good but nothing like that.
Wtf is this comparison😂
Elijah Craig Barrel Proof is easier to get and about half the price in my neck of the woods
Elijah Craig barrel proof is 80 dollars and hard to get in va Blantons I passed three times in the last month
@@user-th9vq1mi9s Elijah Craig is the same price here in SE Tennessee. I seen it very often. Only know of one place local to me with blantons for $150
Honestly... As everyone is pointing out... The proof difference alone should make these VERY different pours... I almost suspect there was a mistake made and they poured you Blantons twice.
Which EJ barrel proof is this???
As long as it's made in Kentucky USA the bourbon capital of the world 💯💯👍👍😎
Was that the C923 ECBP
Which ECBP batch? A123?
Dude has a mirror in front of him.
name checks out
You have an exceptional ECBP.
Every ECPB I have tried is much hotter than Blanton's.
ECBP all day everyday, this guy just likes the horseys
ECBP is in a whole different ballpark than Blanton's. After drinking full proof bourbons, Blanton's doesn't even compare. Sure there are some really good batches of Blanton's and some really bad batches of ECBP. But this shouldn't have even been a contest.
Those aren't even close to each other. ECB is more than a "little" hotter.
For me availability isn't the issue i can get blantons but im not paying $150 fir it
Short answer. Hell yes.
Is Elijah c also high rye ?
ECBP and Blantons are two VERY different bourbon and shouldn’t be compared to one another
ECBP blows Blanton’s away. Regular EC would be a better comparison.
They aren’t remotely similar lol
Apples and Oranges bruh 😂
Next time do a comparison with less the 30 proof points difference 😂 Try doing less that 10 proof seperating the two...
And yes, 9 times out of 10 I'm grabbing the ECBP
It doesn’t matter if something else is better. People still want a Blanton’s just to say they have it.
It's not about better or worse it's about flavour profile and what yiu want it for.
I prefer Middleton veyy rare 2016 to the 2018 but they are both exceptional
Opps… if Blantons is so hated why does it continue to be so hard to find …. Oh cause it’s good . I agree it’s not hundred dollar good but at 60, 70, I’ll buy it
I think EC toasted barrel is as good or better than Blanton’s IMO
EC Barrel Proof is limited release. Not easy to come by at all. Nor are these even similar comparisons. Proof isn’t close.
Bruh…. How can you not tell a 125+ proof vs a 93 proof blantons? Back to the drawing board
Elijah Craig is not better than Blantons 😂 I've been drinking them both for years
Blanton's overrated compared to EC single barrel or Old Forester Single barrel both Easy to Find but priced more than Blanton's MSRP. Good Luck getting Blanton's at MSRP though 😂, or spend little more and get better Bourbon easily available.

Elijah Craig is definitely not better than Blantons or nowhere near it 😂😂😂😂😂

Not a bad review as a whiskey noob, but next blind try getting your proofs to atleast be in the same neighborhood
Only Blanton’s that’s any good is SFTB ! Everything else is 🗑️
You probably drink Busch Peach Bro! Develop skills later and talk less. Experience is Golden
Short answer. No.
This guy kind of kills his credibility with this video…
No, Elijah Craig Barrell proof is nowhere near as good as Blanton's, in my opinion.
Shut up man, don't send the taters after my ECBP 😂😂
