I have to travel 5 hours to find Springbank and I always buy it when I find it. What were the prices for these bottles?

[@CuriosityPublic]

We should have discussed the prices - Glendronach - we paid around $90 (700ml euro bottle) Benromach - you can find it aroudn $90 Glenlivet Nadurra - around $90 Aberloud Abunadh - also around $90 Springbank ---- we paid $120. Hard to find these days - gets marked up 2x-3x that.

[@ernieforni3221]

@@CuriosityPublic Thanks.

[@rmtx97]

​@@CuriosityPublic I think disclosing price would help the audience discern value.

[@CuriosityPublic]

Yeah - we should have discussed it in the video - mistake on our part!

[@rmtx97]

@@CuriosityPublic Just offering ideas for one of my fav channels! Love the blinds across various categories (tequila, others)

[@djbeacon6895]

The SB 12 year CS at 56.1% ABV should be batch 21 and has a 4 way finish: sherry, bourbon, burgundy and a touch of port. Love that one!!

[@wpwang12]

One very notable absence is the GlenAllachie 10 CS similar to Glendronach in that it's a Billy Walker reclamation project.

[@peterb.3278]

I really like that GlenAllachie!

[@lorenmiller6953]

Love the Drink Throughs!!! I Vote For a Dewars drink through or a 18y blended blind!

[@pierre8755]

For a long time, Springbank 12y CS was a 70% ex-Sherry and 30% ex-Bourbon, then they made a couple of 50/50, and the one before was a 35% Sherry and 65% Bourbon. The one you tried is very unique, batch 21 is 45% Sherry, 25% Bourbon, 25% ex-Bourgone red wine cask and 5% ex-Porto.

[@teddyballgame25]

Bunna 12CS 2022. If you guys haven’t had it…you need to. The 2021 is the 12CS. The 2022 version is 18CS. First bottle in awhile I bought multiple bottles. Under 100 out the door at whisky exchange.

[@rangeradams]

Springbank 12 is too unique. Probably why it's number 1. Like others, would like to see peated cask blind.

[@homunculusprime647]

Glenfarclas 101 and Highland Park cask strength are my favorites and I am sad to see neither of them included here.

[@andrew_dudinetz7608]

Glenlivet always does well with you guys lmao

[@Robert.Sheard]

I'm falling for cask strength scotches through the SMWA, but I'm discovering that I'm not a big fan of sherry bombs. Ex-bourbon casks for me, I think.

[@CulturadelWhisky]

These videos are pure gold guys. Thank you for the information and dedication in doing these kind of videos, I know the work behind that has to be done. Cheers!

[@CuriosityPublic]

Cheers!

[@C.A.Newman]

The Tamdhu batch strength is really friggin good. Too bad you didn't include it. I have the A'Bunadh waiting to be opened. Need to find that Nadurra. Man, it's crazy how well Glenlivet does in your blinds. I have the 18 soon to be opened. I can never get my hands on Springbank where I am. Going to Scotland this summer. I guess I'll get to try it there.

[@allenbt11]

Agreed. In my area the Tamdhu B/S is also by far the easiest to find.

[@peterwhite507]

Maybe Bunna 12 Cask strength 2022

[@kftower]

The Glenlivet is very understated and seems to do well in the larger blinds. It is very non offensive and a good scotch all the way around. Would love to see a couple head to heads with it vs others. I'm not sure it would do as well.

[@drgallup]

I had a Nadura once but it was many years ago, not sure it was the same thing. Of the rest, I've been drinking the A'bunadh for a very long time, really enjoy it every time. Sounds like the Springbank is a unicorn. I'll pick up a GlenDronach if I see it as I like their other products.

[@jamesmorgan9695]

I swear guys later batches of the Benromach even with it's dunnage funk are worth putting om the bar, but obviously if you find a Springbank on the shelves, double take( it might be a knock -off)

[@jonathanso86]

Excellent video guys. Sherry bombs are a gem and I’m glad you guys made a comparison video for this

[@scottframent5562]

Love the addition of the overall rankings!

[@hesamazimii]

The shortlist is definitely missing Glenallachie 10 CS.

[@scottfromoahu2896]

So close! I was hoping to see who had the best Pedro Ximénez finished . Maybe another video with a head to head against this winner.

[@sjcsscjios4112]

You guys should review Cazcanes Joven

[@aaronvlasak92]

LOVE IT!!!!

[@majordomo3]

love the scotch reviews and comparison videos

[@Kylosgrande]

Very cool video idea, I like Aberlour

[@isherpa]

cask strength peated whiskies should be next 🙏

[@supervillan326]

Agree with other posters. Bunna 2022 CS is another lovely sherry bomb. Would love to know how it would have stood up against your line-up. Hopefully you’ll review at some point. For my Dad and I, it won our blind taste test against the Glendronach CS Batch 11, (which was very good in it’s own right).

[@logankaptis884]

Any of you tried Glenallachie 10 yr Cask Strength?

[@Dafoodmaster]

I got a sherried Signatory Vintage 13yo Deanston that is A-MA-ZING, i highly reccomend picking up a highly rated one.

[@TheWhiskyExplorer]

Dillion: ‘With More Academic!’

[@mpchakos46]

Would Highland Park Cask Strength be too easy to pick out in this blind? I would have liked to see it in this one.

[@CuriosityPublic]

Yeah - that is why we left it out actually. It is excellent though!

[@mormorgranat]

Missing Bunna in there. Surprised nobody liked Benromach. Great video though, thanks

[@brorjace1980]

You could argue the Glenlivet won because you all picked it first on the aroma.

[@jaypritchett17]

Where is the Bunnahabhain 12 CS?!?!

[@brentross9233]

I do love the Tamdhu. Sadly, ohio doesn't Carry it anymore

[@WhskAZCL]

Next one > Tamdhu cs, HP cs, Bunna cs, and mayne throw a diageo cs special 😱

[@CuriosityPublic]

we really wanted to include the HP CS - the flavor profile just sticks out too much though. But keep the recommendations coming! We definitely want to do more scotch blinds like this.

[@Zmann86]

I think it's funny you guys keep ranking Glenlivet so incredibly low and then every time it's in your top of the blinds shocking all of you.

[@clw37918]

72 watchers should mean 72 👍

[@peterwhite507]

unless you went all out on Glendronach CS batch 11 😀

[@pickleeater3102]

Minor quibble halfway through the video: How you guys didn't call the glass without a sticker black is beyond me. Blank is not a color gents. That's a fail. Alright, back to the video.....

[@bdwilcox]

Well, Mr. Pedantic, black's not a color either. It's the total absence of color.

[@pickleeater3102]

@@bdwilcox wow

[@HansVanNeijenhof]

Dutch, Dillon it might be a good suggestion to try to educate Jules as his knowledge about spirits is limited and therefore a nuisance in your presentations.

[@dewalt5599]

Great concept.
