Colkegan Single Malt 10yr Anniversary [Sherry Cask Finish] Review

"This became one of my top five American whiskies just like that," says Rex.
Big thanks to Colin Keegan himself for the bottle. Cheers ya Reppy Bastard

[@flatliner8524]

if the maker is "sort of" a friend.....that would make him a SEMI-COLON....LOL

[@Christopher_Wheeler]

The Laphroaig 10 is back baby!

[@charlesritter7702]

U know it's good when Daniel says "Goodnight"

[@ulkesh78]

I'm proud to live in NM mainly because of this distillery! Really need to drive up and tour it now that cv is relaxing a bit.

[@blindsleep]

I’m doing that tomorrow

[@MyWhiskeyDen]

I’m not sure if anyone had mentioned it yet, but they are going to be bringing This into their core lineup. I’m so happy you guys loved it as much as we did. It is an absolutely tremendous Whiskey and an excellent representation of American single malt.

[@PhatTrumpet2]

Okay, but when are they going to get better distribution? I NEED ME SOME COAL-KAY-GEN.

[@greggtstagg1687]

Colkegan is amazing stuff!

[@benjamineaves595]

Colin is one of the best. Love that guy. And that 10yr is fantastic.

[@MrZanzibar123]

Colkegan and Balcones are two of my favorites; the Southwest is killing it!

[@kahless0173]

Is Texas the west? I always started it at the border with me Mexico and then continue that line straight down.

[@MrZanzibar123]

@@kahless0173 Southwest.

[@JohnKay79]

I'm going up to the Santa Fe Spirits Distillery tomorrow, for a tour, lunch, and blending of my own bottle event, put on by a local whiskey club I'm a part of. This (and your other COLKEGAN reviews) are a great primer for it. Plus y'all just rock in general.

[@Wilvekio69]

Good Morning Magnificent Bastards!

[@AnythingGeeky]

1:20 The look never gets old

[@GreatBritiain]

I don't think I've ever wanted a whisky this much, even without the positive reviews from you guys. My 30th next month, I think I know what I'm getting myself!

[@robusto7735]

You had me at Daniel's "Goodnight".

[@Minchuks123]

Last night was the first time I tried Port Charlotte 10 year old. It smelled like a wet dog yet when I sipped it the taste of it reminded me of a caramelised porkchop. Thanks to you and the community surrounding you. With Magnificents, ya magnificent bastards!!!

[@mach1smith]

I just bought the Colkegan cask strength at Liquor King in Allen Texas. This stuff is exceptional. This and the Balcones 1 are some of my new favs. I generally drink Bunna 12, Glenmorn, Glengoyne 12, Bowmore 12 and Laphraoig 10. The US is really got some nice small batch distilling going on nowadays.

[@ericnix5034]

Fellas the joy that is in the air is contagious, I can’t stop laughing out loud in public (DMV) while watching you guys😂🤣😭

[@SurvivingTheWild101]

Yesssss was waiting for this one!!!! One of my favorites.

[@godithdadrag]

I'm stealing "Son of all the bitches" for all future excitement

[@thomasdavis4771]

Almost in tears mentally picturing Dan atrophying down into a Montgomery Burns sommelier type Making Rex a dominant Smithers?! idk anymore.

[@texaswhiskeyplus2973]

My wife and I were at his distillery a couple of weeks ago. Great people! Did the tour and a flight. The flight is really 2 flights of 5. It was everything they make. If you are in Santa Fe, stop in.

[@allenhorne5830]

I really good friend of mine found two bottles in Dallas this weekend. The sent me a picture and wanted to know what she should do. I told her BUY BOTH!!!

[@matthewsawczyn6592]

"Just do it good, right now". The phrase of every client

[@NigelSnowdon]

For this year's Xmas gift to the MB's, can someone put together a supercut of them smelling their hands after getting whiskey on them ;-)

[@johnstinson7018]

Yes the yeti style cup has been a game changer... showed up to a work golf outing with a container of hot coffee. Even blew on it before taking sips of said fake hot coffee... it was bourbon.

[@jeremiahfuertes5960]

Just started getting into whiskey/bourbon and had no idea about Colkegan. And I live about 45 minutes away for Santa Fe, in Albuquerque. *sigh, guess I have to run down to the store to grab some.

[@mjhearns23]

I have been discretely drinking whiskey for the last 2 years, out of 10oz. or 16 oz. Low/high ball tumblers. They are perfect for the golf course

[@justinsmith1862]

I have two of these bottles, the big ones!

[@kkading15]

Laughing hysterically about Rex talking about "small bottes" after watching last Saturdays video!

[@fuelman1391]

I had my first taste of Colkegan through a Flaviar tasting box. It is legit one of the best whiskeys I've ever had. A little hard to find in Oregon, but I keep looking!

[@wasabista1613]

Greasings and lubrications you MBs!! 🥃🥃🥃 Sadly another dram I can't buy over here 😒

[@RikWlz]

Cheers MB's!

[@chacehawkins4708]

Those people you said would be frustrated by this review because they can't experience it...yeah, I'm one of them for sure.

[@rossfudd256]

Good morning Gentlemen.

[@hotdog99100]

Rats, Colkegan is not available in the PA sole-source State Store system.

[@zoman1]

And they won't special order, either.

[@unclemikiesworld]

Do they ever mention how old the Sherry was that was in the barrels? Because my personal preference is 30 years old

[@metalmaniac1415]

The time travel bit has me thinking about the new heights whiskey snobbery can reach if time travel were possible. "Wow only 500 years? Guess these guys went cheap on their quantum space navigator." "Glenfarclas 2500 sucks. Their gravitron matrix is only calibrated to handle one thousand digits. Completely destroys the flavor on the trip back."

[@garyblower1921]

Good day gentlemen and fellow MBs

[@samuel_excels]

Aqua Vitae from Lindores Abbey Distillery is another place where you can find late medieval style whisky.

[@mikecofojohn168]

Call Keagen would be the play, Sir Rex is correct IMO. This whisky excites me. Where and how do we get this stuff? Is this all their distillate?

[@SurvivingTheWild101]

It is all their distillate. They are in 11-Ish states right now I believe. I think you can check on their website. If you live anywhere near the southwest or New York area it shouldn’t be hard to find. At least their regular stuff. The 10 year is really only obtainable in New Mexico.

[@sanzoel618]

Morning MB's

[@RC-lc9ye]

I am a new bourbon drinker for the past I’d say 33 months now I’m trying to find which one I like the best I’m leaning towards small batch but I haven’t got to try any other kind yet I’m just wondering what’s up

[@TheUsgooner]

Look rare whisk(e)y Tuesday!

[@user-dz9yx3et9y]

are these guys going out????

[@breakingbelmont]

Did I… did I hear Rex sneak in a “Praise Châd” after the toast?

[@EckertShawn]

I need some help great bastards! I am charged with planning a 6 whiskey blind tasting for a bachelor party. There are a lot of whiskey drinkers who haven't had more than the bare basics. I am trying to find a set of 6 whiskeys to use that will help them explore and find their category, but narrowing it down to 6 is tough. What do you think the 6 categories should be to get them to a fun exploration. Thanks anyone for the help.

[@thomasdavis4771]

sonic aging and tea steepin vid coming soon lol

[@donkeykong3x3]

Rex, is the Hane's "Ball-ance" guy your long lost heir?

[@vagabondwastrel2361]

Owners should have their own "classy" cricket theme.

[@Acesian]

How long has the little Daniel been there?

[@SurvivingTheWild101]

As a friend of Colin’s I can confirm that Colkegan is pronounced the way Rex says it.

[@jcoop22]

Daniel must be punished!!

[@robviousobviously5757]

Fifth... 1.75L Whatever GOOD MORNING YOU MB'S... 🥃

[@jimmydirr9463]

Hey this is my first time here…never seen a whiskey tribe episode ever…never…..who is emma? 😂

[@jaredmarkleady]

JIM BEAM CHOICE TRY IT PLEASE YOU CAN DO IT 👍

[@bilbotbaggins1337]

Sup MBs

[@sachinkainth9508]

I wonder what whiskey aged on the moon would taste like.

[@Saztrah]

So would you say you like this one?

[@unclemikiesworld]

Glass iced tea bottle

[@chonk8435]

How do I send a bottle to you guys?

[@thevictorianconservative1093]

2:22 Son of all of the bitches?… I think you meant Heimdallr

[@travisburks1]

A friend just brought a bottle of this to the fights this weekend. Absolutely amazing drink right there

[@blindsleep]

Colin still owes me a bottle he promised me…

[@chrispianoleao9700]

Necklace Daniel.

[@b.stone01]

I live in NM and so badly want to like this distillery. While I have not had this specific bottle I have purchased their single barrel and tried others and I just cannot get over that upfront mesquite, strange, not good flavor. I cannot even finish a small pour of this stuff. This is the absolute first time I completely disagree with you guys. I am glad however that a local company seems to be doing well.

[@jgmay2725]

Itchy ear

Only 1 in 10 likes - not very magnificent 😉

Don’t be a sell out dudes. Their whiskey it’s just ok
