$7,000,000 Whisk(e)y Collection Bottles and Bunker with Dewayne Poor

[@Freedom21stCenturi]

As a poor Whisky enthusiast this video blew me away. I expected a very pretentious and snooty interview, but what I got was a down to Earth history lesson and storytelling. Superb.

[@BourbonRealTalk]

Dewayne is a very approachable guy. So glad you enjoyed it.

Dewayne is the real deal. I have tasted whisky with him multiple times and some of my friends have been to his place. You will definitely find him attending major whisky events in the Texas/Oklahoma region. He’s a disciplined collector with an excellent palate.

[@BourbonRealTalk]

Couldn't agree more!

[@ThaOfacemaker]

No wonder he did well for himself. Straight shooter, tell it like it is, motivated, charismatic, and intelligent. I was hoping a little bit that I would dislike a person who collects like this, but he is the real deal and genuine to boot. That was a treat to watch.

[@BourbonRealTalk]

Dewayne pulled himself up by his boot straps. He once was a roofer. Now he owns a company that leases out equipment for open heart surgery.

[@trapbois4573]

What's even more priceless is how Dewayne has shared incredible moments with whiskey connoisseurs and aficionados through something that was once just grains once upon a time. Thank you for sharing your passion with us!

In my humble opinion, Mr Poor honestly earned what he has ... his passion is whiskey ... he enjoys it ..., he shares this passion with others ... and that's it ... and the rest is silence (as in Shakespeare). Everyone has a chance to develop their passions ... but the easiest way to criticize :-(. Wonderful man...I wish him more specimens for the collection!

@@BourbonRealTalk Thanks will do.

[@BourbonRealTalk]

Please read this comment before posting a negative comment. I have written this as a response to recurring negative statements. 1. Having this many closed bottles is a waste: There is a difference between drinking and collecting. Whiskey drinker's often drink whiskey because they like the effects of the alcohol and possibly the flavor. Nothing wrong with that, but if that is all you think of whiskey you are going to have a hard time distinguishing between a bottle's utility as a drinkable spirit and its value as a historical documentation of a time and place. There are different levels of spirits. Some spirits I too precious to just be opened and drank casually. Since spirits do not go bad in the bottle over time, collectors provide a valuable service for future generations to be able to experience a piece of spirits' history that would have been lost to time if every bottle was opened and drank on release. If you watch the episode you see that Dewayne does open these bottles, and there is only one whiskey in his entire collection he has never tried. He is saving it for his birthday next year, but he does have a plan to open it. So don't look at Dewayne or anyone like him as someone who only enjoys owning and doesn't enjoy drinking. He drinks these whiskeys. It is true that he has too many bottles for anyone to expect he will drink them all before he leaves this earth, but that is both a valuable benefit to his family (because of the money they will bring when they are sold) and the collectors who end up buying them (because of the rare opportunity to try something from the far past). 2. Comments about Dewayne losing the entire collection in an earthquake/theft/fire/etc.: I do not know why so many people see this man's life's work and immediately think of how he could lose it all, but if you read the comments it is a very common thought. DEWAYNE DOES NOT LIVE WHERE THERE ARE LARGE EARTHQUAKES. There have been three earthquakes the bunker has withstood without loosing a drop and the collection has a separate earthquake insurance policy. The building has access controls, and alarm, the bunker entrance is hidden, the bunker locks down if the alarm goes off (locking in any would-be thieves), is strategically located near a responding police station, and the police are aware of the theft risks. The bunker was also built to be fire and tornado resistant and has a fire suppression system, and the collection is insured. 3. Alcohol is a scourge to society and no one should drink it: It is true that alcohol can be dangerous and that some people should avoid it. If you chose to abstain from drinking I support you. That said, my channel is hardly the place to preach the evils of alcohol. I educate people about all the positive benefits of responsibly enjoying whiskey. I could write an entire book about how alcohol helped form the modern world, so you are not going to convince me or my average viewer that alcohol is evil. Also, remember that having the right to tell others what to do with their bodies would make those individuals subservient to you and therefore not free willed individuals. It would also make you a narcissist, and no one wants to be a narcissist. Please understand this video was create to entertain, inspire, and educate, so tried to view in with that spirit in mind. Cheers!

I’m not going to spend my final days clinging to life and wasting my entire life’s savings that can be passed on to my surviving family on pain pills and medicines that will ultimately do nothing. I’m getting locked inside this bunker and dying with dignity in my heart, and bourbon on my lips. I just ask Mr. Poor to keep a Cuban in the vault so I can have a stogie as well. I’ll leave an envelope of cash to pay for whatever I drink, but this is how I go out lol.

They poured me a glass with 1 large ice cube inside. They taught me the "Kentucky chew". To smell it first then take a drink and hold it on your tongue. It was the best whiskey I've ever had!

This weeks episode (will drop on Friday) is a list of shelf available bourbons for under $60. Between those two episodes that should be enough to get you started. A couple that you may want to start off with would be Four Roses Small Batch or Evan Williams Single Barrel. 4R is very fruity and floral and EW SiB has more barrel influence in the flavor. Both are excellent bourbons for a good price, and easy to find.

I do wish we could have seen more of his Scotch collection, because I see some real gems at a glance. Thanks for making this video!

He has so many special bottles. I wish I could have highlighted more, but the episode was already longer than I wanted it to be. I also needed to highlight both scotch and bourbon...since I am bourbon real talk :-)

Whether it's money, stories, or personality.. Dewayne's not poor! What a cool guy. :)

[@BourbonRealTalk]

So true

[@danalawrence4473]

What a great video- a humble yet informative and educational host with a collection to die for!

[@BourbonRealTalk]

Thank you for watching - Dewayne is a great guy.

[@Spurphy]

Okay, pretty cool, but he got any BLANTONS?

[@BourbonRealTalk]

He does 🤣

[@kiweekeith]

What a Lovely Guy.... So informative .... Thanks a Stack for sharing .... Great Stuff .... Cheers from NZ

[@BourbonRealTalk]

So glad you enjoyed it! Thank you for watching.

With a collection like that I would rather know what his day to day go to pour is. Clearly he isn't drinking his collection.

[@BourbonRealTalk]

He opens one of everything, so he does drink a lot of fine whiskey. When we were together he had a Henry McKinney and a KC 15 Year. Not sure what his Scotch daily is.

I saw the last one and made the comment. Thank you for filming and showing this collection. What an amazing bunker.

[@BourbonRealTalk]

Well you gave me a great idea! Started editing in photos and videos into all the videos I can. Going to do more bunker interviews too!

[@ChrisVanMiddelkoop]

I like this guy. Not because he is a collector or has expensive bottles, but because he likes scotch as much as I do. I would say though that I do not have any connections like he does nor have I been to the distilleries... yet. I have been to Scotland a couple of times and drank some expensive scotches but I want to go to the distilleries next time I am over that way.

[@BourbonRealTalk]

He is a great guy! Good luck on your next trip to Scotland.

…………….wow. Speechless. Incredible collection, and Mr. Poor seems so laid back and down to earth about everything. Great video, my friend! All that Ardbeg….love it!

[@BourbonRealTalk]

Well said! He is awesome!

[@ghantakha5568]

I would walk very slowly in his bunker cuz if by accident i happen to break his expensive bottles i would have to sell my kidney.

[@BourbonRealTalk]

We needed to move bottles around to do the filming and for me to take photos. I made him move any bottle himself that was worth more than 10K because I told him I didn't need to handle whiskey that replacing it would "change my future" :-)

[@willvanallsburg9706]

drooling amounts of whisky. all of these bottles are top notch and this vault will be enjoyed by many.

[@BourbonRealTalk]

Great perspective! Thanks for watching!

[@tacratt6091]

I would love to just have his Pappy collection!😂 I’m not a big scotch fan, but my goodness I can only imagine what some of those 65-70 year olds taste like! I lol when he said the new Pappy was aged in a dill pickle barrel! The cult will still drive the price up on bad tasting Pappy though!

[@BourbonRealTalk]

In his other bunker he has a Michter's 20 that is number 2 of something like 12. Probably one of the rarest bourbons ever released.

[@SippersSocialClub]

Great video! Thanks for allowing us to peek inside this amazing collection!

[@BourbonRealTalk]

Glad you enjoyed it!

Earthquake: im going to ruin this mans whole career

[@BourbonRealTalk]

Cheers

[@RwingDsquad]

Dude prob got rubber shock absorbers or viscous dampers integrated into the bunker. I’m sure someone thought of that.
