There's some appeal seeing someone pursue something so well, even if it's not the thing I would pursue. What he's doing just looks fun.

Taylor Single Barrel Bottled in Bond for $79.99. ❤❤❤ I think I got an absolute STEAL for those prices but I'm new to bourbons and their pricing nowadays. Can anyone tell me if I got a good price or overpaid and so forth

  • @apeekintime
    @apeekintime 6 місяців тому +2

    Being a Missourian I'm pretty excited that we have Ben Holladay as a killer local brand. They did the one thing most small brands fail to do - they waited until they had a good product to put on shelf. Coming out of the gate with a 6 year BIB is just insanity in the current bourbon market and normally you only see 6+ year BIB products from legacy distilleries. The 7 year BIB's are all over Missouri now and I would say they are very comparable, if not better, than Heaven Hill BIB. HH 7yr BIB is $50-55 and Holladay 7 yr BIB is $50-55.
    But you would be sorely mistaken to believe we only have Ben Holladay in Missouri. There is a smaller brand called Planter's that is absolutely killing it. They are relatively unknown and they have even OLDER whiskey in their single barrels. I have a 17 and a 18 year old single barrel pick from Planter's and they blow ECBP out of the water. These picks are literally on par with Eagle Rare 17 IMO. They were also $75 each.
    Barrel King is well known in the UA-cam circles because of ADHD Whiskey being hired as their master blender. They source all their whiskey but they are doing interesting things with their finishing.
    There might be a couple other small distilleries on the rise in Missouri but their stuff is all still young. Won't be long and Missouri will be considered a top 5 state for whiskey though.
