James E. Pepper 1776 Bourbon Review (and The Irishman bottle-age experiment)

Поділитися

  • Rex & Daniel try a revival of one of the oldest marketed whiskeys in the U.S., and also run an experiment of a new bottle vs. a 4-year-old, half-empty bottle of the same release (for science).
    Fun Facts: 1776 bourbon originally was produced in 1780 (mid-Revolution) and was popularized in the late 1800s by James E. Pepper, grandson of the original proprietor, renowned horseman/stable owner, and the man who supposedly introduced the Old Fashioned to New York City. This was also one of the first bottles of whiskey to use the "strip stamp" across the cork as a way to deter tampering and watering down, a dangerous con that was prevalent prior to the Bottled-In-Bond Act of 1897. During Prohibition, 1776 Bourbon was one of the few spirits that continued to be sold as "medicine" at roughly 6x the cost.
    Big thanks to TITAN of Whiskey William Schappert for the bottle. All hail.

    You've talked about aging in Texas vs. Scotland, and the differences.
    With age "rounding" out the rough edges, but the "fast" aging of Texas; what would happen if you started an aging in Texas, and let it finish slower in Scotland, or vice-versa?
    Would you get more flavor, with more rounded edges...or something similar....or would it just turn to crap?
    By the way, you BOTH rock, but Daniel needs to do a video in hot pink one of these days...Rex, you're just a polished flipping skipping stone,or a polished turd....not sure which, keep it up!
