Forgot to put this is the video, but which whisk(e)ys do you think deserve more recognition???

[@MDJ5]

Try the 14 honey whiskey from panther distillery. the honey in it settles so you have to shake it

[@briancthayer]

McKenna brown label

[@NWsmallbatchBrewing]

I'm not telling or the price will go up lol. But I'd love y'all to do a video on American Single Malts. I'm so excited about this as a category. McCarthy, Westward, Balcones, etc. This growing category is going to make America great again !

[@redude649]

I would but KZbin said No

[@Dinie09]

Definitely Ardbeg (Kappa) Kentucky Spirits Ltd Peaky Blinders Irish Alberta Distillers Limited (in general). Its crazy how many common bottles are just aged or rebranded ADL, not as much as MGP, but so so many.

Mellow Corn is straight nostalgia for me. My dad used to drink it and Old Ezra. I was really happy to see Mellow Corn is still in production. I’m pretty new to whiskey but that’s one I like to keep on hand.

[@andrewnorris6474]

I grew up near Elverson PA. So when I go back home I usually have to stop at Brandywine Branch. They also have a limited run custom cask 118 proof that is fantastic. I have yet to try their rye.

[@alphafirestar]

I'm living in Taiwan at the moment and have bought a few (small) Kavalan bottles, but even here they're quite expensive. I've bought Omar as a gift for a friend, but have never tried it myself since all of their offerings are quite expensive also. It was really exciting to see both brands featured here, and since you enjoyed the Omar, I think I'll splurge and pick up a bottle for myself finally!

[@ncruncher722]

Resurgent is actually one of my favorites!! Awesome to see that in this video!! I’d like to see Stoll and Wolfe Whiskey in next time

[@beckobert]

Well, that turned very Texan towards the end. Also, I absolutely love the Omar sherry cask. I had no idea you can pack so much flavour into one sip.

[@laner.845]

And both Kavalan sherry cask options at my local Total Wine are almost $600 each. Yeah no, lol, that's not in most people's budgets. I'm interested in the 117 West, though. Looks like they don't ship anymore, so I'll have to take a vacation to San Diego. Been wondering what my first free employee standby flight would be after Covid. Guess I have my answer!

[@thomashaidvogl4467]

I'm a rather new kid on the block, but I greatly enjoy your videos. So thanks for them... 😎 Forgive me, if you already did a video about this topic, but I couldn't find one. I think a pairing video about whisk(e)y and chocolate could be interesting.

[@johnp.2267]

I wonder if you folks have heard of Mississippi River Distilling Company, and their flagship bourbon and rye, Cody Road.

[@michaelcharlesthearchangel]

Try mini barreling your own blends or single malt- single spirit whiskies. Have a cooper make you a mini barrel with wood staves and wood caps of your choice. Then char it to your leisure (#1-#7). When bottling, filter through a funnel filled with quartz or amethyst or a gem 💎 stone of your choice. *when charcoal filtering, use a funnel loosely packed with wood charcoal of your choice 🥃

[@wknight8111]

I live about an hour or so away from Resurgent. It's been on my list to visit for a while, I may need to bump that up in the priority list.

[@thriftgolfer2803]

Went to FEW in the winter I was really impressed by the Rye and the distiller there was amazing so knowledgeable of bourbon. Took a few bottles home no pun intended lol

[@josededios5063]

Binging your videos all night just subscribed already developed a bro crush on rex and a crush on briana lol keep killing it guys

[@donoimdono2702]

these guys do their advert clients well. some of the best ads I've seen.

[@zackzenron]

Tahwahkaro malted rye whiskey and Leopold bros three chambered rye are definitely the best ryes I've had that I can't get anywhere near me.

[@restorer19]

Ah, Mellow Corn. The second-ever whiskey I was able to sip neat. Certainly not my favorite, but it let me sidestep the new-oak "cherry" flavor I had been tasting as burnt spiced soap until I acclimated to other flavors enough. To my memory, it tasted like sweet, somewhat grain-ey, cheap Easter chocolate liqueur. (Yes, I drink all my chocolate liqueurs at 50% ABV)

[@trexfighterpilot]

I found the Kavalan Sherry Cask(not Sherry finish) in Guam for $85. Not the cask strength, but still amazing.

[@EthanSterner]

Few was bought by Heaven Hill a little while ago. I believe Resurgent is still MGP distillate but I’ve been told their own stuff should be out soon. Love the videos!

[@simbry49]

Brianna is really working out well on the channel. Her tasting notes have impressed both Daniel and So-Han. All ya`ll are great to watch.

[@WhiskeyTribe]

Thanks BS Simon! I have much to learn still but I'm gonna try and take this sniffer to the top.

[@ChipsA17]

Getting a bottle of mellow corn this week. I hear nothing but good about it. And it's $18 for 1l so why not give it a try. Worse comes to worse I have plenty for friends and cocktails

[@AlternateDargon]

Recently had a local store point me in the direction of this Gordon & Macphail Glenrothes Distillery whiskey and oh my lord it blew my socks off it was so damn good. They had a barrel pick that was out of this world. 200$ bottle i grabbed immediately after they let me try it. So so good. Ive tried a few others from there and theyve all been lovely.

[@mikemorrissey7928]

These are your best videos along with the blind tastings. Great job all of you, and well done Brianna on her contributions. Her notes, both nose and taste are really interesting and so out of the box thinking it just makes the whole experience even better.

[@ryanparsons3057]

You guys should try the Weldon mills reserve. It’s a North Carolina whiskey, and it’s awesome

[@imthatoneguyify]

I’ll second this! I didn’t care for most of their offerings but the Reserve impressed me enough that I had to bring a bottle home!

[@ronswansonsalterego8533]

Try Chattanooga Whiskey - they have a 91 proof and a 111 proof. Had it last year on a trip to Knoxville. Bought 2 bottles and wish I had bought 12.

I recently looked for a few german whisky and found some I never heard of wanted to try. (Hardenberg Club Whiskey - Straight WHEAT Whiskey (there is also a Rye version)) and (Elch Whisky - Torf vom Dorf - Single Malt Whisky), I'm really excited how they're gonna taste Edit: I tastet the Hardenberg Straight wheat and it had no buisness being that good, for 26€ i'd recommend this whisky immediatly.

[@ConcaCon]

As a German myself... I appreciate this tip. Because I've not had a truly good German whisky yet. I've tried different Stork Club, Slyrs, and various offerings from the Glina range. Always felt underwhelmed.

[@nokris.destiny703]

@@ConcaCon no problem, tbh, the Hardenberg didn't blew my mind as my first german whisky but for the price of 26€ I think it tastes really good, it's obviously not the best but definetly solid.

Ha’penny Irish is my out of the norm bottle. It’s not as shortbread cookie flavored as most Irishs and is a bit more full flavored. I like that differs from most.

The tasting notes on that 117 West Rye sound very similar to the tasting notes that I get when I drink the Balcones Rye 100, which also coincidentally has chocolate rye in its mash bill as well. Might be a contributing factor.

Taiwan is a tropical island so you should get a lot of barrel simply from the higher heat and humidity leading to more expansion and less evaporation.

[@Pebb86]

Love how Brianna looks a bit lost a few seconds into the video. She looks so adorable at times. While for the cleaning product thought, good thing she has never met and drank Ever Clear that hasn’t been mixed with anything. I haven’t drank it since it can be hard for find it in my area. But if it was located some would be reserved for certain things. Like use in a car, helping to combat radiation if nuclear war occurs and being used to barter for items during the apocalypse. For the bartering point of view it has many use’s with one being, defending my home from raiders.

[@travisrolison9646]

When In the military we used to do shots of it. But if you want rough drink the military special brand stuff .10 bucks for a liter of tequila or “whiskey”

[@danjennings5068]

I've tried several 117W whiskeys and man I just can't get behind them. They all have a common young/green taste that makes me think they need to age a few more years. Great friendly owner and staff though!

[@SwapBlogRU]

I've heard good things about Kavalan, but where I'm from it's just stupidly expensive. Like, you can buy five bottles of Auchentoshan American Oak or two-three Macallan Double Casks for the price of one 0.7 liter bottle of freaking Kavalan. I can't imagine it's two-three times better.
