I buy regular four roses and mix it with EC 50-50 and it’s a great daily sipper blend
Never had the FR SmB but the FR SiB is one of my favorites... never had a bad bottle. I just love the flavor profile of that one.
Both are good daily sippers, I do prefer the EC most days. Great series Jon.
Thanks Mike! This one was closer than I thought it would be. I thought EC would take it easily, but never count Four Roses out!
Enjoying the shootout!!! Glad to see EC take the victory cuz I'm a fan. Everything seems to be so close. Also you and the family take care of yourselves durring this difficult time.
There were a few very clear winners but alot were closer than I expected. You take care as well!
I noticed right off the bat that you didnt use water before trying the EC. I think that was the reason for it not popping originally. Glad to see that you caught that bc I think the right bottle came away the victor!
This one was a lot closer than I thought it would be. Four Roses has great flavors but is on the mild side. I thought EC would run away with it but I was wrong.
Let me be the first to say hope as is good with you and your family. Great review as always Jon .Cheers my friend
Thanks my friend! We are all good at the moment. Hopefully you and yours are doing well too.
Great Video!!!!
Cheers from Oklahoma
Thanks! Another one coming tomorrow
I'm happy with either one in my glass, but 5 out of 7 days I prefer the 4R flavor profile. Both are daily winners.
I'm never mad at Four Roses. This one was really close. Could have gone either way.
Both are excellent.
Definitely!
For my taste, the FR is vastly superior to the EC. But to each his own. Cheers Jon
It was really close in this one. If the Fiur Roses had the few extra proof points that EC has, I think it might have won. It was that close! Cheers!
Good call.
Thank you sir!
The Elijah Craig is a spicy and sweet bourbon w a lot of kick. But I prefer the lighter tasting Four Roses bourbon! Both are great.
You are right, both are great. I've never found EC to be very spicy. What spices do you pick up on?
Jon, I think you picked the right one but I'm not a big fan of 4Roses. ECSB is a great bourbon to take to your brother-in-law's house for a great evening of playing cards or watching a movie. Really delicious but you don't have to give it your total attention.
Agreed! And I like the Four Roses too. This one was much closer than I would have thought it would be. Cheers!
I would go FR on this one because IMO FR has a distinctive flavor. When I think spring/summer I think FR products with their fruit flavors. For me there is nothing distinctive or anything that sets EC apart. EC is good, but I have not bought a bottle for a while and I just bought FR small batch and single barrel for summer in case the liquor stores close like they did in a neighboring state.
Four Roses is definitely good stuff! I think EC just edged it out because it has a bit more depth and complexity. The 4R SiB is a totally different ball game too!
Is there a current bracket that we can see the progress? Or will that come at the end?
I would give it to you now but I don't know where to put it. I can try and add it to the next video. Cheers!
@@BlindWhiskeyReviews yea that would be cool to just throw it in the next video for a little bit so we can see who's taking over what spots. So far I love the series...next one should get into the barrel proofs!
Both are great but depend on your palate
Definitely true! Although it's impossible, I do my best to remove my personal preference for flavors and evaluate the whiskey based on things like complexity, intensity of flavor, drinkability, etc.
I always favored Elijah a little over Four Roses. However they both are dam good.
I agree. I thought EC would win easily but it was much closer than I though. Cheers!
Blind Jon - you kinda swerved me w/ the initial tasting. Four Roses just comes across too light, when directly compared to most Bourbons. Still enjoying these showdowns!!!
Lots more coming! Keep an eye out tomorrow 😉
I like them both but the minister won this bottle boxing battle, keep it up brother.
Haha someone had to win! Another battle coming tomorrow.
I like the video. It's kind of creepy and weird. But I like it
Creepy and weird? Haha I'm gonna need more details on that description!
I'd place 4R over EC
