Popped the THH last night, my first BTAC. Woah, it is intense... on the nose I actually got soft carmel, sweet smell with oak. Palate was a mint bomb, pine, super bold flavors. Excited to go back for more.

17:40 If a whisky is good enough on the merits to get into the best of competition, put it in. And if that means that one distillery has a large representation, then it means that distillery is doing a good job in y'all's opinion, and that means the distillery has earned the recognition. 🙂

Nice review. I like how you guys take time to consider your rankings rather than just go with the first taste. If you think the WLW is high quality stuff, which being BTAC would seem to qualify it, keep it in the whiskey of the year trials.

I commented before the end of the video. Please don't put any restrictions on your top bourbons. Should BTAC have 3 in the top 10 or 20 so be it.

Me agrees with Sara. Having 3 in contention is quite contentious!! That was fun 😂 So really I would leave it out. That being said as I always say it's your channel do what you want 🥃🥃

Nice review! In my area of California the stores would sell the sample bottles for those prices! Regular bottles are 1000.00 or more depending on which offering. Cheers!

Who cares how many of one brand is in The Best Of The Year Bracket. If it's better than what you replace it with, then the replacement doesn't deserve to be there.

I would give an arm to get a chance to buy a Sazerac 18 reasonably close to retail. Tried it once at a bar and it was one of the best rye’s I’ve ever had and one of the most complex whiskey profiles I’ve ever tried in ANY whiskey. A true 10/10 experience and the 90 proof, to me, still felt like an oily, full-bodied whiskey. It tasted like it was supposed to be bottled at 90 proof.

Do you have info relating to the numbers of bottles produced of each? I’m curious because in my part of Southern California it’s normal to see GTS in liquor stores for $900 or $1000. WLW is not seen as often and generally carries a $1,500+ price tag.

Late to the party, but if the WLW is one of your top bourbons of 2024 it shouldn't matter who its producer is. Let 'em play!

I’m confused. Are you comparing these 5 to each other or are you comparing each one to prior year releases?
