Best Available Whiskeys of 2019!

[@Chakawatever]

When I watch your videos, I’m like “great, now I have to go downstairs, grab the bottle, and sample some whisky to see what they were saying”

[@haxmya]

That feeling when you buy a bottle of Rye at the store on a whim and come home and see it at #1. woohoo.

[@davidhatton5180]

Thank you for restoring my faith in bourbon. I have 8 of these and could find all 8 easily! Most importantly love all of these!

[@BourbonJunkies]

What 2 were you missing?

[@josephdanko7451]

I’m sitting here drinking OF rye and almost spit it out when I saw it was #1. Can’t believe I get a liter of this for $29 in NYC.

[@danepinkston]

rename the channel to 'Old Forrester Hype Machine'

[@WhiskeyWars]

Otherwise known as the King of Bourbon !

[@matthewmillet3807]

FINALLLYYYY, Old Forester fans! Happy to see others who enjoy enjoy Old Forester as much as I do! Good video y’all!

[@RhinoViper]

1792 Full Proof($45ish) and OGD 114($25ish) are my 2 fav's...also Rare Breed for $45ish as well.....I like the high proof stuff and both of these are great prices. I really want Woodford Double Oaked more but it's 90proof and over $50....it's hard for me to pull the trigger on more.

[@patrickfulmer9596]

Brown-Foreman fanboys! I don't blame you. I had a bottle of the OF Rye. It must have had a leak, because it's empty. Beam and Buffalo Trace left out in the cold!

[@BourbonJunkies]

Not what you think you're getting at $25 that's for sure, cheers!

[@shanebeaudrot777]

I literally watched each bottle in anticipation of the appearance of Early Times. Obviously one of my all time favorites. I'll give 👍👍 two thumbs up.

[@timgargis7565]

Old Forester Rye , 1920 , and Rare Breed are three of the best whiskeys out there. Hands down!

[@justadudeintheworldman.120]

I picked up a bottle of ET BiB. For a liter for $25, not sure it can be beat as a value bourbon right now. Extremely good value for what you get.

[@jeffcarter6092]

First time seeing you guys; you’ve earned a new fan. Funny and good info. I’ll be going to find a few of the bourbons you talked about here and look forward to seeing more of your videos. Good work

[@BourbonJunkies]

Thank you, appreciate the comment! Cheers.

[@triplecap4307]

I use OF rye for my manhattans. Just realized I'm on my third bottle and I don't know what it tastes like neat. LOL The 1920 is magnificent. We visited there in 2018 and so glad we did. Cheers boys.

[@wuluminati9622]

I'm always looking for new ideas. Never thought of using that for a Manhattan. Gonna try it next

[@treytedrick1672]

Early Times is my jam. Took me a while to find it and will never go back

[@BourbonJunkies]

Glad we have another believer, cheers.

[@socoblue1988]

Thanks for doing this vid for us plebs, guys! I have the Rare Breed, the 1920 and the OF Rye. I'm definitely a fan of OF after visiting their distillery last year. Count me as a fan.

[@annieworroll4373]

lol. Watching this as I'm drinking Old Forester Rye. Love that stuff.

[@armedmariner]

Good table of pics fella. I need some 1920. I also need some Rare Breed. Thanks for another good video mates.

[@patrickfulmer9596]

How does Four Roses Single Barrel not make the list? It's everywhere. It's delicious.

[@BourbonJunkies]

We just don't like it that much, I'd take anything on this list over 4R single barrel.

[@bourbonsanta]

Dan having a Ryegasm at the end is everything.

[@arickbakken]

I LOVE lists like this. For the people!!

[@seckler17]

OF 1910 and 1920 are awesome, I am a huge proprietor of the Early Times as well, so good for $22/1L. It's sad that I have not bought a bottle of the OF rye yet, that will be rectified tomorrow.

[@BourbonJunkies]

Can't go wrong with OF rye, cheers!

[@sundayeveningscotch4978]

Great list - I've only had 3 of these (Saffell, Rare Breed, and 1920--all 3 of which made my own personal top 10 of 2019 as well!). I'll definitely need to grab some more of these!

[@stevegellas7869]

One of my favorites

[@pinkfloydian1000]

wow. first time watching your videos. as soon as you guys raved about that of1920 i knew i had to sub! love that bottle so damn much. cheers guys

[@BourbonJunkies]

It's one of our favorites!

[@r.jssmokinpitt977]

@ 12:33 of video is just golden if u wait for it..... ' the table moved ' 🤣😂🤣😂🤣🏆🤣😂🤣😂🏆🚀

[@richardiandoli7437]

I agree, 1920 is nearly perfect and my new favorite whiskey. Drinks like it's $100+. I'm gonna buy more of this stuff (and 1910) before they catch on and jack up the price.

[@djbeacon1942]

Richard, Agree on the 1920. About a year ago I finished off my bottle of 1910 before trying a 50-50 blend with the 1920 to make a "1915". You may want to try a glass. Cheers! 👍🥃

[@richardiandoli7437]

@@djbeacon1942 Sounds good, I will.

[@pennmarks6705]

Agreed, love me some Whiskey Row Series. Old Forester killing it.

[@farmalltractor]

dude is out of control....too much fun..love the video.

[@IndyGuy65]

1920 is #1 for me, 1910 still sold out here but I need to look for it in the city. I have meant to try OF rye and will do that next week. I love Brown Foreman whiskey.

[@borbacymbals7331]

Don't know if the dramatic pause @11:21 was edited on purpose, but Stevie Wonder's "Heyyyyyy" is perfectly placed!

[@B1gC4st]

Early Times BiB! WB Saffel prices online are nice. Wish it was in AZ somewhere.

[@hombreleon]

This might be my favorite BJs episode. Nice work, gents. 🥃

[@BourbonJunkies]

Thank you, and cheers!

[@BadWeatherfreak]

Tried old forester rye. And is pretty good. I just ordered a bottle of blantons. Super excited got it for 59

[@ariaallen3412]

Some helpful information I gained from this episode. I'm going to pick up the old forester rye and 1910. Maybe get the 1920 as well.

[@mush1976em]

These guys turned me on to the 1920 and I really like it. Haven't tried any others though

[@edwinvillasenor8161]

Good video. Loved how your recommendations are pretty accessible. Will you guy be making a video with a 2020 list?

[@BourbonJunkies]

Sure will!

[@ryanfay6659]

I can get the liter bottle of Old Forester Rye for $22.99 in Northern KY. Absolute best value in whiskey right now.

[@ragnvald687]

My value bourbon picks that can always be found. 1. Woodford Double Oaked ($54) 2. Evan William's Single Barrel (-$30) *Michter's American ($40) Michter's Small Batch ($37) Old Forester Prohibition ($35) Maker's 46 (-$29) Angel's Envy ($47)

[@whiskeyrookie6834]

As you guys talked about Ryes, what are your thoughts on Pikesville? For some reason, I just haven’t been able to get into Ryes, but I’m trying hard. Absolutely love Old Forester bourbons, so I’ll have to try the rye.

[@boknows8936]

Nice to see some top 5 picks at ‘affordable’ prices, newbie here, so looking for tips/picks, thnx guys...

[@djbeacon1942]

Guys, just picked up my first Eight & Sand and will have to try ASAP. Great list. Best accessible bourbon in 2019 was the Bookers 2019-03 Country Ham but at $80 that could be a showstopper. Best Great Surprise was the Very Old Barton 90 proof in your Advent calendar. Just bought a 1dot75 liter BigBoy handle for $25. Cheers!! 👍🥃😋

[@BourbonJunkies]

Dude that 90 proof VoB is amazing for it's price point. I forget about it all the time, not sure why either.

[@mikecofojohn168]

I've watched three of y'alls video's and clearly, y'all love Old F. Glad you put the Woodford Wheat on there. Best list I've seen.

[@caseybavera5846]

I have only tried the old forester 86 proof. I love it. I can't wait to try more of them. You guys are way more down to earth than wt.

[@rockermork]

Definitely Old Forester fan boys. However... so am I, so I'm good with this list (mostly).

[@razorbackfan1966]

Great list

[@kevinarmitage6114]

possibly my favorite vid

[@scottwilliams5388]

Thanks guys for the list

[@jdh7144]

I think you two are my whiskey spirit animals. I like the OF Rye and ET BiB so so much (for the price?! oh man!), especially for classic cocktails (Sazeracs and Manhattans) and they are both good for sharing with "idiot buddies" who don't necessarily appreciate "better" whiskey (and who wants to waste good whiskey on those guys?!). Hopefully we don't see some kind free market economics at work as word gets out, supplies dwindle and prices go up!

[@joelplascencia3568]

I have been meaning to try a rye, that Old Forester might be my first.

[@CraftWhiskeyBoys]

Looking like I need to add some more Whiskeys to the collection!

[@GrimTactics]

Surprised Elijah Craig Barrel Proof wasn't a choice. I guess it may be harder to get in some states but most every liquor store I go into here cant seem to get rid of it. I havent been able to find the C919 because there are so many unsold B519 bottles collecting dust.

[@BourbonJunkies]

We know it's harder for some people than others. We tried to get bottles we figured would be almost anywhere.

[@solaydbak]

Larceny, Elijah Craig, and Evan Williams 1892 are some go to’s for me.

[@brysonmeadows9710]

Love that list but would replace a couple with ECBP and Pikesville, widely available in my area maybe not for others. Need to try that OF Rye, early times 1 liter might be my new best value thanks to you guys

[@ironheadjump5114]

If you say"in my area" you should say what that area is

[@brysonmeadows9710]

NC

[@brysonmeadows9710]

Last time I replied a specific area/store within a month I went from being able to get most of what I was looking for to it never being available, lesson learned.

[@aaronstaebell]

Can tell you’re both having fun. Enjoy the content. The editing is great too.

Such a great list. 1920 is #1 on every list. Can’t imagine liking a whiskey more

[@BourbonJunkies]

It's an amazing bottle for an amazing price point

[@casey590]

Just getting into Whiskey and Bourbon love the content.

I love Old Forester Rye, 1910 & 1897.

[@thomashenley2980]

Okay you guys have convinced me to try some Ryes, thank you.

[@BourbonJunkies]

Cheers! Old forester rye is a great cheap place to start!

[@kerino1]

The best bourbon I've tasted to date was an Early Russell's Reserve Single Barrel w/ the old label like you're sipping. Never been able to duplicate.

[@williamheath3064]

That old forester rye isn't going to say 20 bucks, its worth every bit of 30 . Damn good stuff.

[@KristopherHart]

What camera do you use for these videos?

[@BourbonJunkies]

Now we use an a7siii

[@kevinarmitage6114]

You are so right Brown Foreman is awesome!

[@kinart2543]

Great review. I can only imagine the OF Rye and Early Times being ahead of 1920 for VALUE. I still need to try Rare Breed. I LOVE Brown Forman.

[@adamletschin7759]

I'm with ya.. That 1920 is so damn good!!

Hard to beat

I see a trend here. Six of the ten are Brown Forman products. Great review..thanks

No not us.

[@FSAS]

All good choices guys, cheers 🥃. - Patrick

[@harrisonwerner6777]

Only 3 on this list I haven’t had are WB Saffel, Bulleit 12 and the woodford wheat. OF rye has won multiple blind budget tastings among my friend’s. Jack SBBP was my absolute favorite whiskey til I got the batch 12 Stagg Jr. When people ask me what my favorite whiskey brand is I always say old forester because I’ve never had a bad product from them! Love the video

[@TheWhiskyExplorer]

Thanks for the vid guys. Just spotted the Lot 40 CS behind ya! You guys should include that in a rye shootout! 🇨🇦🥃

6 Brown Foreman products and 2 Wild Turkey and 2 MGP. I'm not disagreeing with you guys in the least bit. That OF Rye is incredible for the money.

Hi, I have a bottle of Gibson Finest 12 year old whiskey that I purchased in 1994, making it now 38 year's old. It has been stored inside in a dark area, no sunlight. It has never been opened. Has it aged in the bottle? What are your thought's as to what I am going get when I open it?

My store pick of the jack single barrel barrel proof is the best whiskey I’ve ever had. Glad to see it on the list! (Way better than the rare breed)

[@BourbonJunkies]

Booooo, Rare Breed 4 lyfe. Those JD store picks are great though, nothing like normal JD which blows my mind.

[@jbpoletti]

Bourbon Junkies I found the non barrel proof to be good as well. Also, aren’t there only like 7 barrels a year available for jd sb bp store picks?

[@antroque35]

The Old Forester Rye is great!! I can get it for $20 near me.

[@darkknightlight]

I like blanton's.

[@bt1hunter1]

Nice top 10 list! OF is my go to distillery. I see why they dominate your picks. There’s not a juice they put out that I don’t like. Just got a store pick SiB OF today and can wait to try it. Next show would like to see the Dan signature uncapping followed by a long pour straight in the gizzard. Lol
