One of your best videos yet! Who wants to see the Guild and Sir Dillon do more blind taste test videos?
Like many things in life , the hunt is better than the catch.
Was able to get a bottle anytime I wanted from around 2008 to 2011 in a Northern VA ABC store near Herndon for a tad under $110 a bottle. Probably have had about 10 to 12 bottles overall. Was always a choice between a great 15 to 20 year Scotch or this Bourbon. It became popular and slowly impossible to get. I think my last bottle was in 2014 where I got on the lottery list and received a call that my name was drawn. Always thought it was all about its smoothness for me, went down easy, reminded me of rock candy. Not the best tasting bourbon, but really mellow and smooth. For me, it does not live up to the current hype, but it is a good Bourbon and was worth the $100 price tag. Cheers to you guys for an honest review.
My mentor and officiate at my wedding brought a bottle of Pappy 23 year, we along two other close friends shared a glass during my reception overlooking the lake...it was an amazing day and fantastic bourbon...sunshine in a bottle.
Im tired of inflated bourbon prices. Especially for overhyped average bourbon
I used to buy Pappy 20 year for 100 bucks and Pappy 15 year for 75 dollars. Good times.
i had this alongside the 15 and some other unicorns and I also did a wow on the nose. Interestingly, I was once in a talk with Jimmy Russel and he chatted a little bit on how he felt about oak and age. His view is that 14 years is about the sweet spot for aging before the oak either goes neutral or in some cases starts to take over the balance. Pretty interesting stuff.
This week I bought a few cheap 250ml Bourbons and did some taste comparisons. I'm excited to start my bourbon journey and just want to thank you guys for being the push I needed.
Always interesting content folks! keep it up!
That jacket looks so velvety, Sir Dillon!
I have a bottle of 23 that I’ve had put up for about 5 years. Saving it for my retirement celebration. Looking forward to the moment.
UA-cam recommended me this video and I wasn't disappointed. One of the workers at the liquor store told me that the 15 is better for drinking compared to the 20.
Excellent review and finally someone says we shouldn’t spent thousands on this bottle. Couldn’t agree more! Can’t wait to try the 15 year.
Dillion’s Gamer Tag must be Stewed Fruit 69
I’ve never clicked on anything as fast in my entire life.
Rating is spot-on. I had the 2014 and remember telling the bartender "if I was in a nice bar in KY, and asked for a smooth bourbon, I would expect it to be like the Pappy 20". Nothing extraordinary about it besides the secondary price.
I agree with Dillon. With a bourbon this hyped, it's virtually impossible to review it without bias. It's almost like you need to do Pappy and BTAC blind.
Pappy van Dillion sporting his matching jacket to the bottle satchel is absolutely marvelous!!!
On this episode of the Burp-un-guild... Jules and Ben mix things up. Sir Dillon makes an appearance and says "stewed fruit". Dutch's nose experiences a miracle. What would the scores have been if NONE of you knew what you were tasting? I think if I ever get the chance to buy one I will go with the 15 yr. Thanks for a "shocking" episode guys. I really needed it after the week I have had at work. Astute viewer out!
I'm only 2 minutes in and I can't stop laughing at Dillon. Looking forward to the rest!
