Buffalo Trace Antique Collection 2020, All 5 Whiskeys Reviewed!

[@iseedumbppol]

Easily the best intro you've ever made...

[@KC8WC0]

I would agree. What camera do you film with to make it look like that. It looked like a movie.

[@ItsBourbonNight]

@@KC8WC0 Just a regular Canon DSLR but did a little more color correction.

[@jackyb2005]

Favorite movie of all time !!!

[@gregsmith5132]

They should sell the entire bottling of the collection in this packaging (vs. 750 ml) giving more people at least an outside chance at trying them.

[@MaltMondays]

They're often available at bars with good whisky collections for around $20 a pour each year. Just have to go in Oct / Nov before they run out!

[@anderskamden857]

instablaster...

[@StonedSpagooter]

I am a complete noob in the grand scheme of things but for some reason I have a feeling Buffalo Trace are the ones who sell these things in the allocated market themselves. The only other way I have seen you can even get Blantons is by going to the distillery in person and thats just what I read on the website they offer in person. 1 Either people are traveling to the distillery and buying as much as possible and then sending their wife and their wifes sister after in after, rinse and repeat 2 I have not seen anywhere that there is a limit for locals, spending a 1000 bucks on buffalo trace at cost is nothing but profit 3 The company is straight up selling it themselves and inflating the market by making it seem "limited" As odd as it sounds I dont think Buffalo Trace wants everyone to taste their whiskey, just like Ferrari doesn't want just any random joe driving their cars.

[@mikem3726]

My brother-in-law and I had a 25yr old, 21yr old, 18 yr old, 15 yr old, and a 12 yr old...all in one day. That certainly doesn't happen every day... Always a great quote and we say it often when drinking scotch. Almost as much as "that's what she said." Love the review guys!

[@markwilcock0725]

Not everyday you get your hands on an 18 year old, comment of the day 😁😆🤣😂

[@stephenmitchum5864]

Mark Wilcock IT has not happened since I was 18 myself, I swear. Her reaction was fantastic

[@LeReVid]

It probably goin to go viral 😅

[@dmusicmonkey]

Someone needs to make this into a gif you can use on future posts 😂

[@Popsaircraftdetail]

That had me in tears

[@robbanta2979]

Best bourbon/whiskey channel on YT. Production value, content, etc. You guys deserve everything you get.

[@goldanboy43]

Living in UK I've quite literally have no chance of getting near those bottles. You've worked hard to get this channel popular and as reviewers, getting freebies is part of your job. I know a book reviewer who's never had to buy a book in her life. Great video, keep up the good work.

[@theukyankee]

Dan, if you are ever in London, Milroy's sometimes have them on the bar menu (October-ish)

[@KevinWilson-cc7lj]

I really enjoy how you two review the bourbons and interact with each other. Look forward to many more tutorials

[@ItsBourbonNight]

Thanks!

[@adam_cha]

I am so jealous! Love yall's videos! The best bourbon channel on youtube hands down :)

[@ItsBourbonNight]

Adam Cha Thank you for that!

[@darrinpelham144]

This is the first time I have watched on of your video's and I really enjoyed it. There are people that can try things and say oh that's good, but the descriptions and adjectives that you use make total sense to the person that knows nothing about bourbon. Great job and I will be definitely watching more of your videos.

[@ItsBourbonNight]

Darrin Pelham Thanks! Glad to have you aboard and thanks for checking us out.

[@jg5555]

Liked this video when it came out & now I've watched it again so I have to comment.... got an EH Taylor Barrel Proof for msrp today so I'm feeling whiskey-stoked...Thanks Chad & Sara, awesome review as always!!!

[@ItsBourbonNight]

Congrats! Love to hear it!

[@DustinB1978]

love the nod to Pulp Fiction, good stuff!

[@vacationclubpro9874]

Gave the thumbs up at "It's not every day you get to have an 18 yr old..."

[@maul_360]

I am beyond jealous!!!!!! Love yalls channel. Best chemistry of any bourbon channel. So happy yall got to share this with us.

[@terryllwegener3811]

One of the best reviews ever. I’ll never get a chance but now I have had the experience.

[@jwmilltex1]

Their initial expressions say it all. It will be WLW for me!

[@877-MASH-NOW]

Whiskey cheers. The production value alone was worth this watch. Good job and excellent reviews.

[@bbyllma]

Love, Love, Loved the Pulp Fiction homage!!! Best vid yet!!!

[@mikedubs9940]

I like all most of these reviews on youtube You guys present a classy broadcast.

[@AmericanScotchDoctor]

1.It’s so cool that you were sent that box. 2. Your right, receiving a box directly from the distillery to review shouldn’t be looked down on (especially if you are disclosing the information). 3.The only reason it scares me is because the distillery could (and I say this with a Mel Gibson “Conspirancy theory” mindset), but they could choose to send the best product they have for people to spread the good word). But... regardless, we all generally know what brands are consistent with quality. And regardless of what reality we are in, you two get to taste some good mamajamin sniz. Cheers to both of you. Now I will watch your review and see what you think. Lol

[@davidbayse5320]

What a delivery to get. Thanks for review. One day one day...

[@malmeyer]

Great video Chad and Sara. I don't mind drinking these vicariously through you. They all sounded delicious. You two deserve it. Cheers!

[@jakewkayakfishing8457]

🤩What a treat. I am so glad to see the high proofs this year for WLW and GTS. If I can get my hands on any one of these or the CEHT 18yr this year I will be a happy man.

[@jamesn5625]

There's a local bar that's doing a WLW, GTS, and EHT BP flight

[@iTip28]

YOU HAVE A FREAKIN' SUIT OF ARMOR AND THE NOD TO PULP FICTION!!! YES!!! cheers!

[@christopherryan7654]

I would watch you guys do a bottled water tasting. Great review.

[@nicksuire6511]

I stumbled upon a WLW Saturday at my local grocery store at retail! Needless too say I was stunned can’t wait to crack it open!

[@ItsBourbonNight]

Incredible!

[@gretchindg]

I would call that dang lucky!

[@Sixx28]

Haha love that you dropped “Brain Trust” in there Sara. 🤣

[@scottkaesemeyer2659]

Really enjoy both your insight. Fun to watch, thank you.

[@jonathanfiddler8073]

I was hooked at “We happy?” Classic! Well played

[@wmgemmell2833]

Made me put the movie aside to watch tonight. As always, great video, you two! Cheers.

[@100puremustard5]

I have the chance to get the 2020 Stagg and the Thomas Handy Rye for $220 each. After watching this I think I'll get both. Cheers!

[@WhisperEve]

Oh, this will go down as your best intro! I agree with iseedumbppol down below. Awesome!! "Pulp Whiskey"!! I'd pay to see that!! Lol.

[@peternt2008]

Is anyone else starting to think that the bourbon companies are all just trying to cash in on marketing ploys ? There seems to be so many limited releases, special releases etc etc etc that just buying a nice bourbon starts becoming a complicated affair. I think life was a bit more simple and happier when there were like a half a dozen mainstream bourbons to pick from. Sazerac rye 18 year old is $1500 a bottle on the retail market in Australia.

[@Andreas-1979]

Very nice intro to this video! Happy for you, that you get to try all these whiskeys, but also a little bit jealous because I won't have the chance. Cheers from Germany, Andy

[@brucebelitz3451]

Tonight I brought home Elijah Craig toasted, hoping it will give us something in the Elijah Craig family that was not kind of boring to us. Really trying to get my hands on William L. Weller this year as I'm a huge wheated bourbon fan. The George T. Stagg will also be on the list for us, wish me luck as we won't get many of these! Congratulations on receiving the line from Trace, I'm sure you were very excited! Thanks again for you input and opinion!

[@thegamingguy1438]

Awesome job y’all! Hope to get a chance to grab a bottle sometime this year. Either way, great review! Cheers

[@hillbilly224]

yall are are getting good at these vids

[@abcarlson3293]

The flavor profile isolation issue you had with the WLW, I have with the last batch of Stagg Jr!

[@stiehl8455]

Very jealous, but very well deserved. Congratulations on building the industry relationship y’all have in such a short time!

[@isoygthevulture]

First time I have ever hit like in the 1st 15 seconds of a youtube video haha! So dope! Cheers!!

[@calvinledsome4614]

You should make that one liner into merch....you know which line 😎

[@alexragusa1742]

Would love to see you guys talk about food pairing with the bourbon's. Appreciate the complex tasting notes as well!

[@KillCoMentalMusings]

Who left a flashlight on in this damn box! Also Sara and her 18yr comment was priceless. I can only hope I'm able to get people to send me free whiskey someday, these all sounded intriguing.

[@vlkafenryka788]

the gods smiled on me today ... i got a bottle of Stagg

[@shawnperkins9378]

Nice Review! Just found a Chapter 4 today on my hunting trip:) Fingers crossed to find WLW this year

[@jg5555]

Found a Chapter 4 today myself & enjoyed the first dram tonight!

[@Ishmari]

I just picked up my bottle of George t stagg. So happy

[@RollNforTime]

Nice job, I'm looking forward to getting a bottle of these

[@TheWhiskyExplorer]

Nailed that intro! Hope to win the chance to buy one of these in one of our very few and far between 🇨🇦 lotteries.

[@IronCavalier]

Never would think I would ever get my hands on a set.

[@stevenreed007]

Love your videos! My ignorance with this question (I’ve only had half a pour of one BTAC in my life, and it was GTS 2019): Chad, when you say something tastes like a steak, are you saying it’s filling like a steak (sits heavy or filling in your stomach) or are you saying it’s tasting notes are like a medium rare steak (buttery, creamy, juicy, peppery, and meaty like a literal steak)?

[@DavidKing-bc1wr]

Enjoyed your review makes me want to have a chance at anyone of theses special whiskey’s. You both compliment each other

[@Bykerboy26]

Just found your video. Love love love buffalo trace products! Hope I can get my hands on some of these. You guys crack me up. Sara you're everything guys dream..a female actually appreciating whiskey instead of making this face 😖 when she drinks it 😂 cheers 🥃

[@greircrabtree6940]

Great job! Congratulations for getting to taste those Unicorns!

[@dennisfernau8076]

Epic intro. I am a huge Tarantino fan. Nice job!

[@AmericanScotchDoctor]

Also... Chad, when you were talking about George T. Stag, you sounded like the old judge in Bobs Burgers who tasted Bob’s Black Garlic Burger. EXCEPTIONAL MOUTH FEEL! Quote, Linda: “And he liked both your mouth feels”.

[@LJones69]

I actually agree with you guys that just because you get something for free that you can’t give an honest opinion isn’t true. However, it is possible to be so overly offensive in the opinion that they decide not to send future shipments....

[@ItsBourbonNight]

Lee J I suppose that could happen, though we’ve never heard of it. And honestly, I don’t think anyone bashing BTAC would hurt their sales in the least these days Hahaha!

[@davemarkowski1057]

Awesome video! Any chance if comparing the Eagle Rare 17 at 101 proof ($99 retail) to the Wild Turkey 17 year BIB ($175 retail)? Knowing people pay way over retail for the Eagle Rare, I would love to see what comes out on top.

[@RickJagger13]

This is so epic! Y’all always make me wanna pour a glass myself.

[@maddie4077]

Just did a tour at the Buffalo Trace Distillery and they had Colonel Taylor small batch and Blantons and Buffalo Trace in the gift shop. Talking to the employees, they cant get any of the BTAC line either.

[@chrisbrown7216]

Here for the intro and the quote of the year 😅

[@kakneeland]

Now I finally know what was in the briefcase in Pulp Fiction! BTAC!

[@SullySavingHistory]

It's my dream to win the opportunity to buy BTAC thru a lottery. Great video guys!!!!

[@lezlielockett3461]

Awesome review ❤️so jealous 😍

[@jkidd7608]

I can't even get Buffalo Trace where I live. I had to drive to another state to get a bottle...

[@ArticBeatle]

Amazing Intro. Great review! Hope I can find one!

[@tomscott4438]

Here's the thing, and this is relative but... my local store got a bottle of each. The Stag was $399 and the Weller was $799 because let's face it, they don't actually get priced the same regardless of MSRP. So with that, which would you buy at these prices?

[@paladonis]

Damn. This felt like getting have an 18 year old again. thanks for the content you guys!

[@carscigarsscotchnwatches5158]

I totally believe you guys to be unbiased. OMG Sazerac 18? I want it. Not sure I have had an 18 year old either

[@AlosDiallo]

I wonder if the notes would have gone differently if there was an hour or so between different whiskey's. Cool review.

[@jdufor01]

Well done on the intro, well done.

[@drammanky2418]

Quinton Tarantino called when it is intro back! nice job ! Nice 👍🏼 job

[@The_Bearded_Jay]

Nice Bob's Burgers reference. ;-)

[@kevinsmith8793]

Not to brag, but I work in CRAFT dept there...Blanton's, Stagg, Pappy, Rockhill, BT, Eagle Rare, AND the very Bourbon you are tasting! 11 years at BTD. .stay thirsty, and Thanks for the video!

[@caseygerszewski9543]

So what is your favorite of 2020 for BTAC?

[@chiefsbourbon555]

Never had the chance to try any of the collection of any year. Impossible to find in my area!

[@TheWhiskeyDictionary]

Great intro!

[@gdhuber3296]

Be interesting to see you two do a chocolate pairing with bourbon one of these days ... got turned on to that the last time I was in Louisville

Who's collection is in the b roll? That's a sweet shelf setup and collection!

[@ItsBourbonNight]

Cam Bryan That’s ours!

[@saleen12]

@@ItsBourbonNight um, if that's the case why don't we get a collection video? They typically get the most views and give us addicts inspiration! Id love to see and hear about the shelves plus see the collection.

[@ItsBourbonNight]

Cam Bryan It’s in the works!

[@davidlingsweiler5730]

Chad: is there a wrong way to drink 5 BTACs in one night? Me: mixing them all together in the same glass (i.e. suicide BTAC) would be very wrong.

[@ItsBourbonNight]

David Lingsweiler True, that might be wrong! Good point :)

[@tombryan1]

Thanks Shad

[@bradysms9]

Amazing content!

[@Brantlins]

I only clicked on the video because of how beautiful the woman was, but then I saw the intro. I am pleased.

[@CALTECH007]

Yep what you said on the Eagle Rare but I will and do stick to the 10 yr where I can get 3 bottles for $100 in lieu of one bottle of the 14 yr. Just love the Eagle Rare 10 YR. I have learned the hard way I don't like the high proof Bourbons.

[@regularguy7502]

Great editing.
