We had a pet turkey when I was a kid. It was definitely a domestic turkey, it was white like a chicken or duck. The original plan was to have him for Thanksgiving dinner, but that didn't happen and he was our incredibly annoying and stupid pet for several years. He was super horny but had no idea what a female turkey looked like, so whenever someone came to our house, he would put on a display for them in case they were female turkeys. He was forever doomed to disappointment.

The past couple of years I’ve really gotten into Whiskey and slowly trying to figure out the subtle nuances in the taste and smell in each one and I’m so happy that Matt didn’t care one single bit about that and did it like a normal person and not a whiskey nerd
I drink a lot of whisky and I have never gotten the big "tasting notes" that liquor "experts" talk about. I can however taste the difference and identify them. I could blind taste test them and tell you what all the ones he tasted are but I'm not gonna tell you I'm getting burned orange peels and tobacco
@@dimesonhiseyes9134 oh yes there is most DEFINITELY a difference!!! Especially if you've had straight from the still on some random bootlegger's mountain in North Carolina under the canopy of the Forrest with Popcorn Sutton rambling bout the good ole days........ Wait a minute... Thanks! Now I gotta go find me that supplier, or a bottle of Sugarland Shine; whichever I grab first🥴
Watching this when I'm about to hit five months sober. God damn I could taste that Jack from here, and that Maker's Mark. But I was laughing so hard I didn't get cravings. Thank you for helping me to heal through laughter!
Fun fact - when the US government was classifying whiskeys, Jack Daniels was classified as a bourbon because it meets every other requirement for bourbon (at least 51% corn and aged in new charred oak barrels). Jack Daniel's protested and a new category for Tennessee Whiskey was created to include filtered through sugar maple charcoal. JD protected their classification so much that until recently there were only 2 brands of Tennessee whiskey (George Dickel being the other) until some smaller distillers won the legal right to be called Tennessee whiskey.
Let’s rename this video, “Let’s All Watch Matt Get Hammered” because it’s awesome watching him become less inhibited and slurring more and more words. Best video ever.
@@richardsilva-spokane3436 I know this was 10 months ago you commented this and probably don’t care; but the bulleit bottle 100% most definitely slowly decreases throughout the video. If you look at where it’s at after he drinks the bulleit, and where it’s at after he drinks old forester, the bulleit is clearly lower lol.
Well, I used to have a one legged, one winged, one eye'd turkey that I called Bob. He lived a happy life in the back garden until he passed away. Just couldn;t bring myself to eat Bob. So, back in the day, I drank plenty of Bourbon to mourn his passing while we cremated him. Hadn't intended to cremate him but after half a bottle of Japanese Bourbon it seemed like a good idea. Never liked the shed. The one that burned down after the cremation pile got out of control, after another third of a bottle of Japanese Bourbon. Never liked that fence either. There's a reason I don't drink any more.
I’ve been to all the big distillery tours in Kentucky and I love bourbon not a Jack Daniels fan. That being said Jack Daniels is the best tour hands down it was awesome. Now I appreciate Jack Single barrel barrel proof.
I don't know why I am binge watching this channel, I'm not even American I'm British. It's very interesting to watch a different culture from across the globe I guess.
LOL. But do NOT get confused. This is not "American", this is The South. Just as - I believe - parts of Great Britain have distinct cultures. Ireland, Scotland, Wales, etc. Indeed, as the channel indicates - "It's a SOUTHERN thing" Daniel, also keep in mind, for what it's worth, the VAST majority of Southerners are from Great Britain. A lot of us like this sort of thing - my ancestors come from Ireland & England, before "The Revolution".
I discovered this from the light beer video and based on that description, had to come here... This DID NOT disappoint. We need an annual drunk video please.
When I was a kid we actually had a pet turkey that basically decided to live in our stables and we fed it. It had a gimpy leg so it just kind of stayed until one day it was gone.
Interestingly, there are nine varieties of turkey, only about three of them being commercial/related to commercial turkeys. All the other varieties are "heritage" turkeys, which are commonly used as pets. I owned a small flock of royal palm turkeys, the smallest heritage variety, with a couple of jennies and a tom. Long story short, I'm a turkey fanatic and showed them in the county fair as a child in 4H when I lived in Idaho.
I just recently found this channel and I am thoroughly enjoying it! This episode is my favorite. I laughed til I had tears running down my face and had my husband looking at me like I lost my mind. 😂😂
I’m late to the party, but I had a pet turkey as a kid. He was a 4-H project and spent the rest of his life on the farm. He was very mean and liked to chase our goats. Love these videos.
Thanks for this. Love the honesty and straight up, no nonsense approach. I always roll my eyes every time I hear some pretentious reviewer talking about how it smells of vanilla, oak and opossum ass blended in charred barrels.
Evan Williams came out and wifey hid the Waterford crystal. "Can't be drinking no parking lot liquor outta our high falutin' glasses". Funny stuff Matt..
Funny video. And great timing. If there was ever a year to do a bourbon ranking at home, 2020 was that year. Ironically almost the opposite of how I'd rank those bourbons, but that's all good, they're your taste buds, you can't be wrong about what you like.
When you said evan William's I litterly shivered and dry heaved. There was one night that was fun off it. The next 3 days I welcomed death. The top shelf evan William's is good though
As a Pittsburgh kid, I grew up learning about the Whiskey Rebellion in the early part of the country. Now you have challenged me to go back and research it wrt the kind of whiskey ( I always thought it was corn whiskey, if not 51% ) and the time period. You are such an inspiration to the true scholar.
Ya gotta watch this video twice for max enjoyment - once straight, because for some reason it's a hoot to watch Matt slowly slip his moorings as he imbibes ever more whiskey, and once with your own bottle of hootch at your side so you can vicariously take the trip with him. Great fun!
Love this. The first tasting I've seen where they don't ask which tastes best, they ask which sucks the least. And he's honest, too! BTW Matt: Wild Turkey is a little rough but Wild Turkey 101 is really nice.
Alcoholic here. Expert. Sober now. Loved this episode. I drank all of these except Bullitt and I don’t even like bourbon 😂. Old Forester was my choice. Good job!!!
I had a pet turkey but she died about a year ago. We were pretty close and I really miss her. She would always bring me the news paper in the morning and sit with me on the front porch while I read the comics. I'm having a glass of Buffalo Trace bourbon in her memory right now. I miss you Victoria.
When she became governor, MeeMaw had some difficult decisions about who to choose for her cabinet: Jack Daniels, Jim Beam, Evan Williams, Elijah Craig, George T. Stagg, W.L. Weller, Basil Hayden, Ezra Brooks, George Dickel, etc.
Glad to see someone reviewing bourbons and not using to leather, tobacco, or marzipan (what even is that???) to describe the taste. I generally agree with your rankings, except for Wild Turkey. The 101 is highly underrated, as long as you don't have more than a couple. You go past 2 (MAYBE 3) and that stuff will have you regretting your life's choices in a heartbeat. If you pull out a bottle of Makers or Bulleit around even the biggest bourbon snobs and they'll be at least okay. You can't do that with Beam or Jack. My biggest knock on Bulleit is that you can't type it in without autocorrect screwing up the spelling.
Dean Beach personally never had it, but I’ve heard very good things, so I suppose I’ll have to at some point. My favorite “bang for bucks” this little while has been Evan Williams bottled in bond and Wild Turkey 101
@@mitchellgehman4605 Just switched to Wild Turkey 101 after drinking OGD 114 for the past 15 years when my local store was sold out. Pretty close in my opinion.
Immediately after this video was filmed would have been a good time to film a "back porch bickering" episode. I normally drink a bourbon and coke when out at a bar, and luckily for me, and my wallet, I can't taste the difference when mixed with most brands. Drinking just bourbon has been a Maker's Mark choice but I'll try Bullet.
Bulleit is by far my favorite. They’re facilities are a very interesting tour. However, if I’m mixing my bourbon for a hot toddy, etc. I usually go for Evan Williams, it a great all purpose and economical option. Kentucky has bourbon, a little bit of winter, and we can come down from Ohio and not get dirty looks for saying ma’am and sir.
I'm back!!! I had y'all on my mind today. Just watched Matt and hard seltzer a few minutes or by hours ago.🤣 Livin' on the Tubez is 24/7/365 man....😂🤣😂 Howdy from Snarkansas ✌🏻☮️
Wild Turkey 101 and Evan Williams Bottled-In-Bond are the better expressions of both your last-place finishers and two of my go-to value whiskeys. However, since they're just more of the flavors you didn't like it probably wouldn't have changed your rankings. Love the channel!
You did some serious tasting with the Bulleit. It is definitely the best of the list. Thank you for the fun tasting, it was apparent that it took a few takes.
That someone is wrong. I could make an argument that Virginia, Florida, or even parts of Texas are not in the South, but the Great State of Tennessee is as southern as it comes (and I'm saying that as a native of Georgia).
OP is correct. Source I have a degree in foodscience with a focus in Fermentation. Jack Daniels is Tennessee whiskey which is distinguished by the final step in the process which involves filtration of the distillate through Charcoal.
I for sure agree. He has a similar palette with me, sipping around the house on a Wednesday is 5 Roses small batch. My treat yourself bourbon is Angels Envy.
This is the first video of yours, I've seen, and the first time ever seeing your channel on my feed. That being said. I love you! Best bourbon review, ever!
Next time you do a taste test and it involves alcohol you should have water in between your samples. That will clear your pallet and also keep you hydrated so you won’t feel the effects of the alcohol as bad. But I do enjoy your show and I like your reviews.
I once split a wine cooler with my husband. My ears started getting hot and it scared me. I turned my phone off so if my mother called it would go to my voicemail. This was awesome! 😂😂😂 ♥️ From Kentucky!
My family had 4 turkeys when I was a kid. They looked like wild turkeys but they were domesticated. I remember one time a wild hen flew into the pen & was chased around & out by the tom & hens lol.
best review yet ,tired of guys ranting on about tasting wood, berries, bird crap from 10 year old pigeons..just needs to be smooth and drinkable. good job
I've been wondering who won ever since we filmed this!
I love you .. man
I hope someone drove you home! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🍻🍻
Killer's Opinion I never left. I live in this studio and live off whatever I ranked last. Soooo....yeah. It’s been a rough couple weeks.
When you were using the orange, vanilla and oak BS it reminded me of working at the liquor store and bullshitting my way through holiday seasons describing the single malts. 😂
Cooper Hilinsky i was right! I knew y’all were just making stuff up!
"There are very expensive Bourbons out there...we did not get those."
I scrolled down into the comment section and read this right as he said this very line. I may be clairvoyant (I also have had some bourbon).
Laughed so hard when you were only on taste #4 and said, “I’m gonna take of my shoes…you trap a lot of heat in your shoes.” 🤣
Every time I hear someone talk about shoes, I immediately think about Matt saying it😆
Yeah, #4 is when he started to lose it.
I'm afraid I must respectfully disagree with Matt - this is clearly the BEST bourbon review on UA-cam.
We had a pet turkey when I was a kid. It was definitely a domestic turkey, it was white like a chicken or duck. The original plan was to have him for Thanksgiving dinner, but that didn't happen and he was our incredibly annoying and stupid pet for several years. He was super horny but had no idea what a female turkey looked like, so whenever someone came to our house, he would put on a display for them in case they were female turkeys. He was forever doomed to disappointment.

“Not that military base cheap, that will mess you up” truer words have not been spoken.
Idk, I like the military special bourbon and rum
@@horationelson1840 I don't know, that tequila rips your guts right out your body. The vodka version isn't AS bad.
Indeed.
Military Special is a staple in my parents house. My dad was in many an incident while in the military and having imbibed it.
LOL
Matt should do a Drunk History series, but Drunk Southern History. Can y'all make that happen?
Um yes we need this we all need this this will make 2020 better
Yes, yes! Please do.
OMG Yes!
Omg, YES!!!
Yes!
Of all these I have seen, I've laughed myself almost right out of my wheelchair watching this one!! Matt, you are freakin' hilarious!!!
“I don’t know how it’s going to end, but I’m scared.” 2020 summed up.
"I don't know how it's going to end but I'm scared" My entire dating experience (thank god someone agreed to marry me)
Facts!
Murder hornets scared or volcano sharks scared?
Hahaha
A nice touch would be a cheap cig or roll your own from a pouch of loose tahbacky!!!
My wife and I were in tears during this video. Funny beyond belief. Has Matt ever considered sampling moon shine from 7 Southern states?
I like where your head's at!
@@tngrrl73 My friend Toby used to make shine from lots of stuff...one of the best was Dandelion
You mean vodka? Because there is no difference.

Keep on keepin' on.
I never realized that “blind taste test” referred to “blind drunk” but yet again, Matt has educated me !
Matt took this one to heart. Hope your head was ok the next day Matt. Thanks for the laughs
The 3rd taste and so on have unfair advantage because he'll down em like water as he keeps going. Wheeeeeew weeee doggie

Tennessee whiskey is essentially just a subset of bourbon.

As a Russian, i approve 😂
Burbon?? Oh yeah! Gotta watch Matt get drunk and see if he likes my fav! 😍
Honestly, the only reason i watched it is to see how lit up he gets lol
There was a lot of cuts to this... Guys you need to release a full uncut version, it will be hilarious!
I was expecting to see the fluid levels of each bottle “mysteriously” decrease with each cut 🤣😉😅😂

Kentucky also has "The Bourbon Trail." You know what distillery isn't on the trail....Jack Daniels.

Can you please do an episode of store- bought eggnog for the holidays? 😂
Good idea!
Especially if they can get Publix brand. I love their egg nog.
Hood and only Hood, unless you want bottled booze, Old New England
United Dairy Farmers or UDF for short. Not their holiday nog. Has to be their egg nog. Its in the Cincinnati area.

Wild Turkey 101 and Evan Williams Bottled-In-Bond are the better expressions of both your last-place finishers and two of my go-to value whiskeys. However, since they're just more of the flavors you didn't like it probably wouldn't have changed your rankings. Love the channel!
The fact that Maker's Mark sells bottles with wax seals that can match your favorite college football team colors puts it in my top 3.
You might have single-handedly redeemed 2020. I love this! Thank you for making me belly laugh!
You did some serious tasting with the Bulleit. It is definitely the best of the list. Thank you for the fun tasting, it was apparent that it took a few takes.
This was such a good one loved it. The fall at the end though lol
Once When I told someone that I was from Tennessee they said that Tennessee isn’t technically in the south I said that we couldn’t be friends anymore
JW McCabe they said that it was “in the middle”
That someone is wrong.
I could make an argument that Virginia, Florida, or even parts of Texas are not in the South, but the Great State of Tennessee is as southern as it comes (and I'm saying that as a native of Georgia).
Vales55 they said that Arizona, Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, and Florida is the south
@@Winlonghorn_iso Arizona?! Lemme guess, do these "southerners" drink iced tea and Pepsi?
Vales55 I honestly don’t know i mean...they are from New York so that might be it
For me: knob creek no. 9, Bulleit rye, and at times Jim all straight over the rocks. Kentucky brands only. Also EXCELLENT video. Salute.
As a Kentuckian, Jack Daniels is not a bourbon. It’s Tennessee Whiskey. There is a difference.
Being from Kentucky doesn’t matter. Straight Bourbon can legally only be made in Kentucky.
It's a bourbon, just doesn't call itself that.
Thank you!
@@dougcatlett3715 bourbon can be made anywhere in the US.
OP is correct. Source I have a degree in foodscience with a focus in Fermentation. Jack Daniels is Tennessee whiskey which is distinguished by the final step in the process which involves filtration of the distillate through Charcoal.
I knew for real Matt was blasted when he started handing out the heartfelt drunken "Iloveyou." Gotta get a bottle of that Bulleit and share the love!
Thanks Matt! I needed this very video to wind down before getting trashed tonight.
I've had all of these bourbons. And I have to say, as far as I can tell, you got the ranking pretty dang close to right
I for sure agree. He has a similar palette with me, sipping around the house on a Wednesday is 5 Roses small batch. My treat yourself bourbon is Angels Envy.
This is the first video of yours, I've seen, and the first time ever seeing your channel on my feed.
That being said. I love you!
Best bourbon review, ever!
Should only rank 3 kinds in a sitting. LOL
Next time you do a taste test and it involves alcohol you should have water in between your samples. That will clear your pallet and also keep you hydrated so you won’t feel the effects of the alcohol as bad. But I do enjoy your show and I like your reviews.
Wild turkey gets a bad wrap but in reality they are a favorite budget bourbon by a lot of whiskey lovers.
Shhhh...
I once split a wine cooler with my husband. My ears started getting hot and it scared me. I turned my phone off so if my mother called it would go to my voicemail.
This was awesome! 😂😂😂
♥️ From Kentucky!
Wine coolers have a fairly low alcohol content percentage wise. A glass of bourbon would probably put you on the floor!
I love Bulleit! One of the first bourbons I have had that I felt like it actually had flavor and was smooth.
My family had 4 turkeys when I was a kid. They looked like wild turkeys but they were domesticated. I remember one time a wild hen flew into the pen & was chased around & out by the tom & hens lol.
"Parking lot whiskey". LOL.
Yeah he really just ranked the best of the worst
best review yet ,tired of guys ranting on about tasting wood, berries, bird crap from 10 year old pigeons..just needs to be smooth and drinkable. good job
This is not the worst bourbon tasting on UA-cam- it is a real, non-snobbish wonder - great work Matt!
I watch this sipping Buffalo Trace. Its better than Makers for sure.
You lucky sonofagun! You can't find Buffalo Trace consistently in Florida. As soon as it's delivered, it's gone!
I have not been able to find Buffalo Trace in any of my local liquor stores for like 2 years now. I'm so sad
@@Elamdri yeah whats up with that? I found some in Chicago and snatched it up.
i completely agree Eric, i found three bottles last week.
I try to pick up a bottle whenever we’re in Georgia. Impossible to find in Alabama.
Best bourbon of them all.
i love this, we just progressively watched Matt get more and more inebriated 😂😭😭😭😭
The Best Whiskey is the Whiskey you like to drink, the way you like to drink it. Nothing else matters.
True of all alcohol actually. ... The Only "Alcohol Rule" I follow is Never Ever cook with Alcohol you won't or don't like to drink!
Someone watches the Whiskey Tribe
CaptnNuttSack.. You magnificent bastard
