I looked, and I couldn't find a single one of the ten bottles you had on the list, then I went into the other room, and found 7 of the 10... 🤣
Haha nice!!!! Which is your favorite??
@@TheAverageDrinker Toss up between Rare Breed and 1920 for me... I love a 50/50 of the EJ bottom barrel and Larceny still sweepings as a fruit bomb though, great watermelon and strawberry blast on the back end! Good as a daily and cheap! Get the little 50ml for $1.25 each, and there you go! 4 oz to Freedom! (Sorry Sublime fans...)
Heh. Hehe….. heh. 😂
Love your choices. I just found and bought a 1792 Full Proof. I cannot find Blue Note in my area. I like the Knob Creek SB store picks, but the KC 12 year is my favorite. I would add Early Times BIB and OGD 114 as top value bourbons.
Very nice! Thanks so much! Cheers!
My daughter just got engaged
To a USA Marine Veteran
And I could not be more happy and he's a great Guy, I spent so many Times with him over a great Bourbon and a great Montecristo Cigar
So. I Talked to my Buddy Jeff on my local favorite Liquor About getting me some Stagg Bourbon.
For the big day.
And he told, we will do it
The Blue Note uncut was the best bourbon I have had. It was $43, and it was so good I went back the next day and got 3 more. And I never spend over $40. My barrel was 116.5 proof. SO good.
I did that too, went back the same day and bought a back up.

I could easily incorporate any/all of your selections in my Top 5. However, to make it interesting I'm going list different pours 🥃. I prefer my daily pours 🥃 to be in the 90 - 110 proof range and under $70.
1) Woodford Reserve Dbl Oak = $46
2) Maker's Mark Cask Strength = $58
3) Bulleit Barrel Strength = $56
4) Redemption High Rye Bourbon = $50
5) Spirits of the Apocalypse - The Walking Dead KY Straight Bourbon = $30
Ohh awesome!! Thank you so much for sharing yours! Love your list and explanation! Cheers!
Agreed, I have 4 bottles of the Blue Note store picks. Doesn't drink hot, some of the best juice/value out there. Gets better after it opens up.
Absolutely! Thanks so much for watching! Cheers!
Love this list! I've had all but the Blue Note and find them all too be absolutely delicious! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks so much!! Cheers!
On a bit of a bourbon budget, but splurged on a ECBPC922. Happy, happy!
Enjoyed the vid 👍
I'm going to have 2 posts.
Nice list. Surprisingly, 7 or 8 out of 10 are readily available at nearby stores.
Larceny & Blue Note are not.
Not sure if they're the same but, the Knob Creek available to me is the Knob Creek 9 Single Barrel Reserve 120 (as reflected on the bottle) for $50.
Being more budget conscious I'd swap the $80 Smoke Wagon UC/UF for the $56 Smoke Wagon Small Batch.
Thanks so much for sharing both lists! Love seeing other opinions!
Great list! If you’re not for wheaters, everyone is different. I will say Larceny C922 is far superior to previous years. Fred Minnick put it 17th on his list, right with ECBP C922, but again, tastes differ. For me, I love it! And I love the ECBPs. Thanks for the video!
Thanks for sharing. I tried the Larceny C922 and did not like it. It could be on God’s list and I still wouldn’t like it. Just not my jam. I love the ECBPs, though! Thanks for watching! Cheers!
Really good list. Combines high quality, affordability and availability. Not easy to do.
Thank you so much for the feedback and for watching! Cheers!
Yep. I have and enjoy all 10 of these picks! Great collection starter list.
So glad you enjoy them! Thanks so much! Cheers!
Solid, totally agree
Great list of bourbons. Been hitting the Sagamore double oak lately. Cheers u 2.
Thanks, you too! Cheers!
Great list
Michturs US1, Eagle Rare,Wilderness Trail. Some of my favorites. Great list you mad.!
Thanks so much for sharing! Cheers!
I saw the Four Roses SB at Woodman’s yesterday for a rock bottom price of $35. That is an insane value for a great bourbon!
Wow! That’s amazing!
Thats the average price in my area. and you're correct, a great value for such a good bourbon..One of my "Keep in Stock" bourbons.
Smoke Wagon and Redwood are on sale in my Atl area. Can't beat these juices for $29. Great gateway bourbon for newbies.
Heck yes! That’s awesome! Cheers!
going to Colorado this summer for vacation. Any recommendations on stores or tours to do? Thank you!!!
Great choice’s! I have all but the barrel Larceny, I have small batch. My top three of what you listed
Russell’s Reserve
Rare Breed
Knob Creek
Thanks so much for sharing! Cheers!
Funny I also don’t favor wheated bourbon - tried …except OWA 107 , which I enjoy very much. Keep up the great content!!
Great picks! Love your taste Blondie, I love the same ones. Have to try Blue Note and Smoke Wagon still.
Thanks so much! Cheers!
Love the channel and great list that you put togther. i would add Coopers' Craft Barrel Reserve and OGD 114 to that list.
Thanks so much! I love both of those! Cheers!
Gotta find that Blue Note. You two and others have given it good reviews. Appreciate the vid!
Thanks so much! Appreciate you watching! Cheers!
I agree with the Russell's single barrel it's always amazing, recently found a store pick when I was visiting family in KY and it is delicious. Also on my list now would have to be anything wilderness trail, I have a BiB and a cask strength store pick that are my current favorites. Awesome list, along with the WT rare breed if you can find the rare breed rye pick it up.
Thanks for sharing! And thanks for watching! Cheers!
Lovely video presentation
Great list. I would add Jack Daniels single barrel barrel proof to the list. Much easier to find than the Coy Hill.
Yes! Although, it's not technically called a bourbon haha
I love you girl
"This is my channel and I can do whenever I want "
I live in Loveland and it's hard to find a great selection, but I've got 8 of the 10. Planning a road trip to DaveCo on Friday while my wife is gone!
Ohh nice!! Hope you found what you were looking for! Cheers!
OF 1920 has a Uniqueness to it that I don't find often in other bourbons. Its a great pick for me
i have 4 c922 ecbp. i bought them at msrp and everytime i found one. I love it. I also have 4 Larceny c922 that I love
Awesome!!
I know we can get OF1920, Four Roses Sib, and Rare Breed around here pretty much all the time. I am not sure of the KC SiB. The 3 we can get are all solid choices with the Rare Breed coming in behind the OD and FR IMO. I would love to find the EC BP and 1792 BP. I think I would like them a lot.
Good list. I like OF 1920, WT Rare Breed, and 1792.
Thanks for watching!
This is a pretty perfect list
Thanks, Jeff!!!
The knob creek 9 single barrel store picks give knob 12 a run and knob 12 is my favorite also shout out to rare breed which is without question exceptional
Excellent channel. thanks
Thank you so much for watching!
Awesome Video i enjoyed the content cheers
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you!!
Hi I'm in the Aurora area and find alot of the stores in my area are not great. Happen to have a store suggestion you feel typically is well stocked?
Argonaut, Total Wine, Total Bev, DIA Liquors
Just discovered your channel! Definitely like your list.
Thank you so much!! Glad you found it! Cheers!
Hey love the channel I was a little disappointed that you guys didn't mention Woodford reserve double oak or Old Force the 1910 but I'm sure everybody has their specific taste I'll keep watching though
We love those whiskeys for sure! We could’ve put hundreds of bottles in this video. Thanks for watching! Cheers!
Saved the best for last
I agree with your list...I guess because the list is mostly $40+ we cannot add Early Times or Copper's Craft 100 and is a bourbon list so we cannot add Jack Daniel's SB BP (debatable). I would've add Penelope Toasted, some Booker's if you find them at $85 MSRP, Knob Creek 12 and John J. Bowman SB.
Ohh I love Coopers Craft 100 and Early Times! Those would be great additions! Thanks for sharing. Also loved JD SiB BP and Penelope, as well as KC 12 and Bookers! Cheers!
Joey,
Not debatable: Even the Master Distiller at Jack Daniel's said it's bourbon.
1792 is great but i can't find any of their other offerings. Makes me sad😢
I live in the Denver area too. Where do you tend to shop that has the best selection of both allocated them on the allocated bourbon
Nice! Well, I go to Total Bev sometimes to check their list. But past that, I don’t really share where I go for allocated. Generally don’t get it in Colorado. But I shop all around town.
Bardstown Origin is also a really good option for $49.
Absolutely! Hasn’t arrived in Colorado yet but I’ve tried them and agree!
the select yes 4 roses single not around here in ny...been looking but no luck yet
Fingers crossed ya see it someday!
The Blue Note Juke Uncut Unfiltered is so good at 40 bucks wow
Definitely agree!
What a list!!! All HR hitters
Thanks! Cheers!
What is a survivor barrel?
Great list… Dara is money…👍💪
I'd add Old Forester 100 $24 here and Maker's Mark 46 $40
Funny thing, I just found MM 46 at Costco for $27 out the door, picked up 3 bottles.
I wish Juke joint ucuf was available near me 😔
Me too :(
Hmmmm, always wanted a Four Roses Single Barrel barrel proof
The Four Roses SiBs are great! The single barrel barrel proofs are great, also!
#1 it's the best !
I knew you’d like that addition :) cheers!
@The Average Drinker I picked up another Friday... brought it to a Friend's and it's almost gone 🥃🙃
@@nickwinton nothing wrong with that! It’s soooo good!
Widow jane 10 year
Were you guys able to grab an import Rare Breed while you were here in MI for pours in the park?
Meijer right now has rare-breed on sale for $45
Buffalo trace! Great value bourbon.
I like it, also. It’s just not easy to find everywhere
@@TheAverageDrinker Grocery stores around here have Buffalo Trace with spider webs on them. lol.
9 out of 10 😂 not bad
Haha 🙌🥃
If you're willing to stretch your wallet to $75, Barrell Vantage is the absolute most delicious whiskey I've had in years. You will NOT be able to stop pouring, once the bottle is breathing.
It’s a great pour! I really enjoy Vantage
You guys are cute. Like the list. Keep doin what you do…friends👍
Would slide 1910 in there too.
That’s great, also! Cheers!
Love Rare Breed. Good call kids.
Thanks so much!
Good job! I would say a Maker's product...I know you are not a fan, also anElijah Craig product, WT 101, and a Bulleit product.
For sure! We def had ECBP on the list and put WT Rare Breed but could def do WT 101! Bullet is also a great option!
Looks like I have all but 2 bottles.
Go Birds!
Boooo! GO CHIEFS!
@@TheAverageDrinker congrats!
Major proof heads!!
I love it! Cheers!
Seelbachs does not deliver to Pa.
😢so sorry
9 out of 10 all but smoke wagon
That’s awesome!! Have you tried the Smoke Wagon?
@@TheAverageDrinker note yet
Who doesn’t like Four Roses? Why does anyone care what they think after that?
If you take a shot every time Dara says "It's so good" in some form you would be on the floor in 5 minutes.
🤷♀️
I guess you guys do not like anything Buffalo Trace?
We do. But Buffalo Trace is not as easy to find on the shelf. Their products are highly allocated
Where's Eagle Rare?
It’s not readily available or easy to find in most markets
My wife said we should hang out and my wife is hot…. And smart AF
Dailey drinkers should be below $30…anything more is just too much.
To each their own! Cheers!
Depends on the budget! Honestly if it's stocked well, anything could be someone's daily
Longbranch sucks.
I could not agree more with your picks. I know you want other favorites, BUT 1920 and rare breed are my jam. period. The knob Creek single barrel is fricken fantastic. I buy them whenever I find them. The only one I love not on your list is Jack Daniels single Barrel Barrel Proof. OMG it is also a true Bourbon legend, even though they say it isn't a bourbon.
Thank you so much!! Definitely agree! Cheers!
Great show guys. Unfortunately my loss, but won't be drinking anymore Brown Forman, Jack Daniels, or Anheuser products, do to this Woke, Trans bs! Keep bringing us good bourbons/whiskey. Thx
Dude, it’s Dara’s show. If you want to kick it off or talk more than maybe get your own show. Dara, I know he’s your boy but boot him. Watching him talk over you for 20 mins isnt so fun and kills your usually great energy. IMO only.
