Ep 187: White Owl Canadian Whiskey Review and Tasting with Crown Royal Northern Harvest Comparison

[@YanceyFoster]

My wife asked, if she died and I remarried would I let my new wife wear her clothes. I said yes. Then she asked, if she died and I remarried would I let my new wife use her fine china. I said yes. Then she asked, if she died and I remarried would I let my new wife use her golf clubs. I said no....she's left-handed.

[@WhiskeyVault]

hahahahahahahahahahahaha

[@CLardPercussion]

Oh man. Totally caught me off guard. Kudos

[@WhiskyJason1]

I just had a similiar white "whisky" over here in Germany - after matured the spirit for 20 years they then used an iron cask to remove all the tanines and so this clear spirit is left over - really fascinating!

[@WhiskeyVault]

What a wild process!

[@kzl303syko]

Today is my dad's birthday and he passed away a couple years ago and i know it probably won't happen but I'd like to see a review of fleischmann's whiskey, I know some people classifiy it as a "garbage" whiskey. But it was my old man's favorite.

[@WhiskeyVault]

So sorry to hear it, my friend. I'll see if we can track down some Fleischmann's.

[@OmEgADeathKluch]

I love watching you guys, I've already spent half my retirement (which doesn't exist at the moment) on 60 different whisky varieties and yet my favorite is angels envy

[@WhiskeyVault]

Wise choice.

[@wide5974]

thanks to pewds, now i get to know u guys

[@1218Draco]

Wide vere neis

[@RobynHood1979]

Been in Calgary for 20 years and though I've seen White Owl, I've never tried it and didn't know it was local. Going to have to do something about that, methinks. :-) Perhaps it is time to give it a shot.

[@porondanga]

I've been disconnected for 2 days due to hurricane Irma (living in Florida). When the heck did you guys made it past 20k subs!? That's amazing! Congratz Daniel! ... and Rex, you are cool too.

[@WhiskeyVault]

Thanks! Glad to see you made it back out the other side!

[@AdamPFarnsworth]

Dude! So my birthday is next week (feel free to send gifts), and my parents took me and my family out to lunch yesterday to celebrate early. When they showed up, my mom was carrying a large paperbag... they bought me Monkey Shoulder and Tomatin 12 (thanks to my wife, whom I have a random "affordable whiskey wish list" for if she ever wants to get me a gift lol)! I sampled both last night and really enjoy them both. I took about 1/3 of the Tomatin and 1/2 of the Monkey Shoulder and am currently aging them in a 1L oak barrel for a couple weeks to see what happens :) You two have really helped me find some amazing whiskeys and taught me a ton! Thank you to both of you!

[@greataxe3]

Please, please, please let us know how that comes out.

[@AdamPFarnsworth]

Absolutely!

[@WhiskeyVault]

this is amazing

[@bialeader]

This is a story about Daniel and Rex going to a funeral. It was a rainy day as Daniel and Rex head to a funeral for a mutual friend. Daniel dressed up in his usual black v-neck shirt while Rex had the decency to finally shower. Rex steps up first to say a few things about the loss of their friend. He clears his voice then suddenly remembers that he was only friends because he gave him free whiskey. Rex freezes for a moment as a single tear rolls down his cheek not at the thought of losing a friend but at the thought of one less person giving him free whiskey. He also realizes that he knew nothing else about this guy and is at a loss of words of what to say. Acting fast, he decides to describe him like he does whiskey "He was very friendly and approachable" he begins "He was complex but not challenging while also being simple. The type of guy I could watch a movie with and get along with fine. He also knew my safe word." Meanwhile, as per the usual, Daniel doesn't care that Rex is talking. Daniel thinks about the last whiskey he shared with his friend. Being a level 3 Sommelier Daniel has the power to taste whiskey without drinking it. He remembers the last whiskey they shared and is suddenly able to taste it again. He grows frustrated with himself unable to identify a hidden note from it. Right before Rex asks for a moment of silence, and with out warning, Daniel yells out "APPLE. It was APPLE!" he says excitedly as the rest of the room is in mourning "Not candied apple but a freshly picked granny smith. You know how you go to the orchard and you get your little basket and pick the apples from the trees" Daniel continues on this rant and then begins telling stories about how he toured with Aerosmith. "Shut your face" Rex yells out right before Daniel begins telling a dad joke. Daniel remembering where he is, quickly shuts his face. Rex finally has his moment of silence as more tears run down his face unsure where he will get his next free whiskey. As Rex makes his way back to his seat, a relative of the deceased man nudges Rex. "I had no idea he meant that much to you" He says in a somber tone "Let's have a drink in his memory" the relative says handing Rex a freshly poured whiskey. Rex's eyes light up and his tears turn into tears of joy "you magnificent bastard" he says as he takes a sip. The End.

[@WhiskeyVault]

Best story ever

Brett Leader, how do I nominate someone for a Pulitzer?

[@RydersCove]

You my friend should be a writer

[@dand8538]

Team biscuit here. I was born in London and lived here all my life. Daniel you are more English than half of the people that were born here. I have a lot more whiskey and appreciation for whiskey because of you and the my ability to get it for free from Rex. I look forward to many more years of new whiskey. Thanks for getting me inspired by whiskey. Daniel Drea New whiskey lover from London England.

[@WhiskeyVault]

Grateful to have obvious wise people watching this channel and hanging out.

[@Reno20k]

This makes me think that you might be able to use different whiskies as replacements in a lot of cocktails. Maybe the White Owl for gin, sorghum whiskey for rum, etc. Could be an interesting Biscuits experiment episode.

[@driesmockers]

[@YanceyFoster]

Yep. I missed it. Thanks!

[@treyreppe4348]

Dang I wasn't the first to comment on it

[@StillIt]

wow . . . . . . 20K!?! Man every time I take a glance at your sub count it jumps! Kicking ass lads!

[@WhiskeyVault]

Rock!

[@StillIt]

Whiskey Vault paper! Ahhhhh haa take that scoundrel, victory is mine!

[@chacehawkins4708]

An interesting creation. Thanks for always showing us every side of the Whiskey world.

[@JonHBombOsterman]

Live stream selections- Talisker 10 Redbreast 12 Evan Williams Single Barrel Knob Creek Rye Old Pulteney 12 or a good blend (JW Black/Dewar's12/Chivas Japanese or Canadian? There's a lot of whiskies that would qualify, but shouldn't Talisker and Redbreast be mandatory?

[@JonHBombOsterman]

Ardbeg Uigadail and Bushmills 16 (though the price has spiked recently) also deserve consideration, I think.

[@justanotherparatrooper7098]

wait which one is Rex and which one is Daniel? they are both wearing black how am i suppose to tell who is who?

[@MriPodtouchhelp100]

Justanotherparatrooper it's hard to say for sure

[@adamcummings20]

Both are a superposition of Daniel and Rex

[@adamcummings20]

[@tdolan500]

Adam That could be an interesting debate.

[@FightStealDrink]

mind... blown... 😄

[@nathaneby3758]

Biscuit means cookie in reference to Scottish, British and Irish whiskeys. Biscuit means american biscuit in reference to bourbons and american whiskey.

[@tdolan500]

Nathan Eby I think that's a fair compromise.

[@evandg87]

This man is in to something.

[@WhiskeyVault]

I like this. You're like the UN Ambassador of #biscuitgate

[@friednug]

Team Biscuit!!!!!!!! For your list, I cant really give 5 but the one I would suggest is the Four Roses - Single Barrel.

[@perkristianhoff9049]

Interesting and entertaining as always. You mentioned in episode 49 that Laphroaig lore was one of your favorites Laphroaigs, and that you should do a review. I think that's a great idea! Would also like some independent bottling vs official bottling comparisons if that's in your power. Keep up the good work!

[@WhiskeyVault]

I love this idea

[@bryanlushbough659]

#TeamBiscuit

[@TheEtinder]

First time commenter even though I've been subbed since you were at 3,000 subs. One of the big brands that I would recommend that everyone try would actually be Jim Beam. Even though they do have some afful stuff like their vanilla or apple bourbons, I think that their traditional white label bourbon, devils cut, bounded, and their single barrel are good quality for the cheap price. Love the content and hope you guys have a good rest of your day.

[@WhiskeyVault]

Yes! It's a classic.

[@marshalldyck7085]

Hey Rex what happened to your mooch necklace. Also im team cookie. Plus you should try Wayne Gretzky 99 whisky its finished in wine casks and ive found it not have bad im also trying to expand my nose and tastes to whisky and so far everytime i drink some im picking up something different. Also great videos guys!

[@briandenouden1936]

Still Team Biscuit here! thanks to you guys my wishlist is growing to epic proportions! For the Whisky's, Highland park 12, Glen Moray 16, Talisker 10 or Port ruighe (yes im naming it again) and old Pulteney 12.

[@WhiskeyVault]

Glad you're here!

[@Holcombi]

If a 2 martini lunch seems extreme to you then what do you think about a 4 dram lunch? When I'm not working this is usually the norm for me.

[@WhiskeyVault]

I'm all for that. That's just practical decision making

[@1005Gforce]

For the 16th do a Jim Beam product. I would say either Jim Beam choice (their 5 year green label), or JB Devil's Cut (six year bourbon mixed with extracted bourbon from the wood itself; aka the Devil's Share).

is heaven hill a large brand? for bourbon I like everything of theirs I've tried.

[@WhiskeyVault]

It is!

[@sergioferrergimeno124]

Hey guys!!!, it's the first time commenting here. I got to your channel through all the pewdie thing, and now I'm watching a lot of your videos, I always disliked whisky, but let's be honest, I never gave whisky an oportunity. Watching your videos I got really curious and now I have a Glenfiddich 12 in my hands... I hope I will learn to taste it. Keep on the good work! :)

[@DaintyCanadian]

I'm in Dundee, Scotland right now on a trip and just got to try lagavulin 16 and aberlour 12 at a really nice pub in the city. Can't say I've done anything better than sitting in the pub sipping some excellent scotch. 10/10 would recommend lagavulin and aberlour while in one of the best cities I've ever been too.

[@WhiskeyVault]

Hell yes. enjoy the journey!

[@WesIncredible]

Rex and Daniel, in reference to friendship - "I may not always be on your side, but I'll always have your back." My answer to the alcohol/no-alcohol. I would be in for the no-alcohol version (assuming that the flavor experience was Identical) because then I could drink whisky at work, at church, at the park, in public... even more than I already do. My answer to the biscuit dilemma, is I always assumed that the word implied a bread/meal biscuit, not a cookie. Team Rex's Biscuit !!

[@JacobBradley00136]

Walkers is a brand name cookie/biscuit that describes the note fairly well if yall wanted to comprimise (which i know you dont)

[@UnboundOdysseus]

The Churchill Martini: •2-3 oz Gin • stare in the general direction of France • consume Martini Nice video guys. Have you tried Bruichladdich's Botanist Dry Gin? I've been wondering about it. I'm a fan of all things Bruichladdich.

[@WhiskeyVault]

Perfect. The Dry Gin is freaking awesome.

[@iamdavid132]

I personally love the Buffalo Trace brand from Old Age to standard Buffalo Trace all the way to Pappy's. They make awesome bourbons all around. Eagle Rare from Buffalo Trace is honestly one of my favorite whiskeys that I've ever had, though I'm still new to this!

[@WhiskeyVault]

I agree completely!

[@WhiskyPapa911]

I found a Weller bourbon yesterday at a local liquor store. I was rather happy for that. Still not the Antique or their 12yr but one can't have birthday everyday right?

[@WhiskyPapa911]

Yes, it was the SR. In my 2nd part of that sentence I mention it's not the Antique nor the 12yr. The Antique was the one save me from complete abandoned bourbon. I have not find any other bourbon that's worth to wet my lips yet.

[@WhiskyPapa911]

Good stuff. Taste like their antique with few drops of water too many. Still good.

[@Arian.Kourangi]

When I first watched this video I thought I'd accidentally clicked on "Buddhist shares glass of whiskey with homeless man" Hope to see many more!

heheheheheh 👍👍👍

[@WhiskeyVault]

hahahahahahaha

[@Pizza_the_Pchonk]

This channel is incredibly satisying even if i dont drink whisky

[@ducttapeful]

Hey guys. I am trying to find a new whiskey/whisky. But i do not want to drop $250 again like i did with Blue Label and The Mcallen 18. Have recently started to enjoy bourbons and ryes. Ryes more so. But i am always trying to expand my pallet.

[@jeremythornton433]

I tried the White Owl but I drank it neat. Wasn't a fan. I could see where it might work in cocktails but I generally don't drink them. Maybe I should start.

[@tollboothvideos8062]

I definitely side with Daniel on the biscuit debate! I'm from the northern US where biscuits aren't as popular as they are in the south, and I studied abroad in England and was introduced to biscuits (and Scotch during my travels) over there.

[@austinb.9189]

Hey Daniel, its not easy finding certain whisky. Sometimes it's do to the whisky not being popular in my area such as this White Owl and sometimes because it's too popular such as my inability to find a Wellers 12. Any tips on getting my hands on these fine products with out sacrificing my ethical code with a liquor store clerk?

[@WhiskeyVault]

Ethical codes may need to be malleable in these situations :-)

[@dcell2585]

Just discovered your channel and I am currently picking through the back catalog of videos. Could you do a Review of Hellyer's Road Single Malt Original? It has a very distinctive mouth feel that I haven't had with any other whiskey. Keep up the good work.

[@WhiskeyVault]

I'll see if we can get some

[@justanotherparatrooper7098]

Rex i feel like Daniel is your best friends so here is a quote i use with my best friends as well ... "We are best friends, always remember that if you fall, i will pick you back up. After I finish laughing!"

[@FightStealDrink]

heheh. thats pretty damn funny. 😂

[@UrbanChaos11]

What unit are you in?

[@Davidspub]

Might look into a Austin area vodka comparison. Dripping Springs, Banner, Deep Eddy, Smith's, and Tito's.

[@MikeGaiser12345]

You should try Dillons Distillery out of Beamsville, ON. They have a great Rye as well as a White Rye. Two other great Canadian Rye's would be Lot No40 and The Dark Horse.

[@theallswellendswell6268]

6:40 I just found out that you guys forgot to censor this!

[@jonas3000c]

So I wanted to suggest you a whiskey to taste, I personally am not a drinker but I've always wondered how Flóki tastes like, and if you're into vodka, Icelandic Mountain Vodka?

[@louisdesroches]

Regarding the 2 martini lunch: Classic/historical cocktails used to be quite a smaller in volume compared to today's offerings. Go into a nice bar today and you will typically see 3-4 oz drinks, of which a 2 oz pour of the base spirit is common. But back in pre- and post-prohibition times, up until the 70s-ish, drinks were maybe 2-3 oz total. And martinis in particular used to be much more vermouth heavy (2:1 gin to vermouth, or even 1:1, as opposed to today's bone dry martini obsession). You get a good sense of this when looking at vintage cocktail glasses - they are MUCH smaller than modern glasses. So a 2 martini lunch in the 40s and 50s would not have been quite the ass kicking compared to a 2 martini lunch today.

[@WhiskeyVault]

Hell yes. Kickass history lesson!

[@kevinjones7980]

Five whiskeys... Jameson's black barrel, Redbreast 12 or Green Spot, Glenlevit 12, Laphroaig 10 and Talisker Storm.

[@roscocsa]

I like your idea of a martini. I'd hate to cut back that much though.

[@SuperScoooty]

Hey guys. I'm wondering if you have videos on Virginia bourbon/whiskeys. I'm a Virginian and I always love eating and drinking local. I've found a few but I'd like to know your thoughts on them. I'd love e to hear a 15 plus minute video on Virginia bourbon/whiskey. Thanks

[@michael_scar]

Hey guys, I was wondering if you'll ever do a video touring some of your favorite Texas whiskey bars. I'm from San Antonio, and I always go to Bar 1919 (which has the largest whiskey selection in Texas). When I visit Austin, I usually visit The Grackle when I'm feeling a bit gritty. What are some of your favorite whiskey bars?

[@kevinjones7980]

Favorite subscription so far. Team Scones.

[@DobbydYT]

My old man gifted me a bottle of Talisker Storm, would love to see a review on it, one of his favorites!

[@WhiskeyVault]

It's amazing. One of the greats

[@4every1freedom]

A biscuit is a digestive, a jammie dodger, a shortbread etc. And yes you can put butter on biscuits, nothing quite as delicious as 2 digestive biscuits with a slab of butter between them.

[@stromming90]

You guys should do the Redbreast 15 whiskey

[@lexyw1988]

Nothing wrong with putting butter on a biscuit. Tastes pretty awesome, you should try it.

[@trinityzaku]

I have a internal dilemma going on with the biscuit cookie debate, I can see it being either depending on what you are drinking. I think it really comes down to when you say oh its biscuity you need to specify which type of biscuit. Also I think what I have come down to for my list for available whisk(e)y's for the live stream is Irishman, Johnnie Walker, Glenmorangie and Angels Envy. I could go into being specific on each of them but I think in general those are all fairly accessible and shouldn't be to high in price. For fifth one I would have to be specific and say Ardbeg 10 just because I really enjoy it.

[@WhiskeyVault]

Me too on the dilemna

[@trosso]

hey guys. long time beer lover, for the first time in my 24 years (long life). i tried whiskey with out cola and straight out of the barrels, just 2 weeks ago on a companie trip to the distillery on hven ''Spirit of Hven'' in Sweden (i'm from Denmark). i fell in love with the taste of whiskey instantly. i've since bought a ''Longmorn distillers choice single speyside malt (love it) and a ''Cardhu Amber Rock''(like it). stumbled upon you today and is now one of your newest subs. the question is, have you ever tried ''Spirit of Hven singelmalt whiskey'' ?

[@WhiskeyVault]

Not yet! Can't get it here as of now. Heard great things!

[@darylskerratt8029]

Ok first of all they're called biscuits. Cookies are totally different, and you can't dunk a cookie in your brew. Finally, I still say The Glenlivet Cipher is a beautiful whisky and deserves it's place in the vault......... BISCUIT!!

[@Martin.Kjellvander]

Will be missing the live stream, because I'm on my way down to Germany for a booze run saturday (from Sweden). I have questions though. I've seen you try the Mackmyra once. Have you tried any other editions? There is another brand coming out pretty soon från Sweden, it's called "the isle of lime" (due to it being made on an limestone island). Would you try to get your hands on one of those? Bought a bottle of old pultaney after you did a review. Also, biscuits, not cookie.

[@WhiskeyVault]

Looking forward to trying this one!

[@raindelay23]

request again lol... Wayne Gretzky NO. 99 whisky, finished in red wine cask''s from his winery, i only get a leather'y nose. id like to know more nose, and palate.

[@cghinds]

Have you guys done a taste of Bib and Tuckers 10 year?

[@WhiskeyVault]

I have it, but we haven't done a video yet!

[@lordgarth1]

Do you guys have the new Balvenie tun 1509 batch 3? I did a search and didn't find it on your channel.

[@WhiskeyVault]

Not yet!

[@DMKizzl3]

Hey guys, great video and a really interesting whiskey. I had a question: In a couple weeks a wine tasting room near me is going to start having scotch tastings. I'm really excited but also somewhat nervous. I started my scotch journey around 5 or 6 years ago and in that time I've done numerous scotch tasting nights with friends, but never with a group of strangers. What are some things I should avoid doing when tasting in a group so as not to negatively affect anyone else's tasting experience? On the flip-side, what are some things I could do to help promote and grow the local community? Keep up the great work, congrats on 18k subs, and look forward to seeing you guys Saturday for the live stream. Cheers!

[@death10300]

Could you please do a review on Maker's Mark cask strength and Maker's 46

[@strinity511]

Hey guys I'm new to the channel, and I'm loving the content. I'm new to the whiskey scene and I've bought and enjoyed a couple of wisckeys that you guys have featured on the channel that I was able to find locally. I've been drinking out of a regular whiskey glass and I know that I need to change that. I was hoping that you guys could do a video regarding glassware and include your thoughts on one I ran into called the Norland glass, I would really appreciate it, thanks.

[@WhiskeyVault]

We did a featured glassware video awhile back! Can't remember which one though. I'll need to research

[@strinity511]

Whiskey Vault thanks for the reply, I'll admit I half ass looked but I'll keep looking. Thanks for the response tho.

[@paulrussell91]

Being a Scottish man with a wife from Kentucky the biscuit argument is one that will never die it's only a cookie if it's a chocolate chip cookie other wise its a dam biscuit ( side note love American biscuits. little honey or some sausage with it spot on )

[@WhiskeyVault]

Oh man, this must be your never ending battle

[@paulrussell91]

Whiskey Vault one of many haha

[@Norsketrutt]

Do a review on the Eiktyrne

[@ironbrutesrage]

Jack Daniels also filters with charcoal which makes it technically not a bourbon but it's still colored....is that because it's aged longer???

[@tdolan500]

6:40 missed one Chad.

[@FightStealDrink]

freakin' chad. id never miss a cork. *ahem

[@shaunh4799]

Great vid and interactions. If you want to try a Canadian moonshine, un-aged whisky, then should get Last Mountain Distillery White Dog. It's made with rye but not aged so can't be classified as rye.

[@bldeagle10]

I'd like to see a video on the George Washington's Mt. Vernon rye whiskeys. They have a seasonal variety, tracking down a bottle may be a challenge though.

[@WhiskeyVault]

Just got some! I'll add to the shooting list. One of our somm's lives by there and snagged a bottle in their lottery

[@speakeasymy]

+Whiskey Vault hi, stumbled upon your channel and i love it! love ur videos, love ur reviews, u guys just give it straight up "neat". this past year i've been converted from vodka to scotch/whiskey, and bottles that did the deed were yamazaki 12 and jura 16 y.o. before, it was all vodka for me, i couldn't even take whiskey. but now, i'm trying out more whiskies and enjoying them very much. so, i'm hoping u guys could do a review on jura scotch, preferrably the 16 y.o. thanks. subscribed and notification on!

[@TheWhedgit]

Have you ever put butter on a pop tart? It's so freaking good!!!!

[@WhiskeyVault]

Hell yes. one of my favorite treats for breakfast.

[@Lapinmiez]

Can you do a review of teerenpeli or kyrö rye whisky? It would be interesting to see what you guys think of some finnish whiskeys :)

[@1letusplay]

I have half a bottle of white Owl on my shelf. I got it on a whim it's flavor is good but rather subdued not the best for me I prefer strong flavors (black coffee and spicy food). I am planing to give some to a friend who dislikes whiskey and finds it too harsh. So if you have I softer pallet it might work for you.

[@georgecocon3739]

Ooooohhh in no particular order : Macallan, Dalmore, Aberlour,Talisker, Highland park, started not long ago drinking whiskey so not yet a very smoky whiskey drinker mainly highlands sorry haha just my opinion after almost a year of trying as many whiskeys as i can. Two bonus blends everyone should try :Monkey shoulder and Hibiki harmony!!!

[@nukl13]

Thanks to pewdie reminding me I need to try more Japanese whiskey, I find myself learning about a whiskey made in my own city I've never seen before.

[@GhettoTownPhatBoy]

I enjoyed this whiskey but it doesn't taste like a traditional whiskey at all. It is great nonetheless though. I had this and Glenfiddich the same night and it was like I had a whiskey and a mixed spirit. It was great and I will still drink it to this day when I crave a different flavour.

[@isthisdom]

Daniel, do you have to have an EP or a single recorded? I need new love making music to set the mood, please tell me you can help me out, dude! Also whisky

[@WhiskeyVault]

Be careful making love to my music. Results vary. google "daniel whittington" and you'll find my music

[@isthisdom]

Whiskey Vault I listened to your stuff I think I may have 8 kids soon. I blame your sweet music making.

[@oddw0rd]

Y'all need to try Dillon's UNFILTERED GIN 22 also from Canada. The best gin I've ever had. They also make a few rye's including a white rye.

[@KillCoMentalMusings]

I'm looking forward to what whisky you will be having for your live stream, I can only hope I will have a bottle or two already so I don't end up breaking the bank before Saturday. :P

[@Gateau]

And now you guys are almost to 20k, short lived celebration for the 10k mark! As I said before, soon you will take over the world and bring it into a new age of drinking.. old whiskey.

[@dentonpb]

I'm guessing the Gin in Daniel's office is The Botanist considering it's from Bruichladdich

[@WhiskeyVault]

nailed it

[@MercifulAndvary]

My first thought was “If it’s clear and 40% - it’s vodka”. :) Thanks for the review, very interesting.

[@areggrigoryan7502]

Hey guys , maybe try a 15YO Dalmore ? Super rich and flavorful , I think it's very underrated

[@WhiskeyVault]

It's awesome! And on the list

[@christiandaldy1967]

Another great episode guys.Really funny dad joke this time

[@WhiskeyVault]

What exactly do you mean, "This time".

[@christiandaldy1967]

Not all dad jokes are created equal.

[@WhiskeyVault]

This is nonsense :-)

[@kuchturk]

Do Laphroaig Lore! It's definitely my favorite whisky out there. And yes, I'm one of the freaks that started out with a Laphroaig and absolutely fell in love :)

[@WhiskeyVault]

it's a golden gift to whisky

[@kuchturk]

Whiskey Vault Oh it most certainly is. I've gone through 4 bottles now and my wallet is starting to hurt.

[@joshuakimmel2164]

Hey Dan and Rex, I just picked up a bottle of The Singleton of Glendullan 18. I'm new to whiskeys, I have tried McCallans 12, Woodford Reserve and the Singleton Glendullan 18. If you guys are interested and have some on hand, could you do a review? Also, I found the Hibiki Master's Select at the local store here, but it's $63, worth?

[@WhiskeyVault]

I have a bottle in the vault! We'll have to review it soon. I've not tried the "Master's Select", but I have a hard time imagining anything not being worth it from Hibiki

[@joshuakimmel2164]

Awesome, thanks for the reply

[@WhiskeyVault]

We did the 12 today kzbin.info/www/bejne/fKmWl5Kdhc5qd7s

[@pikerize]

I say it is either a cookie or a biscuit based on where the beverage came from, so if it is from a country that commonly calls a shortbread cookie a biscuit, it is a biscuit. Sorry Rex... You are wrong.

[@The1stMachinist]

I refer to them both as biscuits, but I do call the shortbread tea biscuits.

[@dmshampton]

Missed a cork noise somewhere in there😳

[@Aged_Rebel]

#teamcookie Biscuits are a flour based baked bread product. Primarily characterized by having cold fat cut into the flour prior to having the liquids added. "Biscuit Method" is a culinary term specifically defining how to make quick breads like scones and biscuits. Following this method will not create a cookie. I have an AOS in Culinary Arts from the New England Culinary Institute, and close to a decade experience in kitchens and bakeries, so I know what Im talking about. Seriously though I love your channel, and I cant drink whiskey. I dont know what it is something about the alcohol taste in Whiskey as well as tequila makes my gag reflex go nuts. Im a rum guy myself, and wish I could hear you guys talk about rum the way you talk about whiskey. Anyway keep up the great work, love your videos.

[@WhiskeyVault]

Well crap, now you've gone all science on us.

[@tdolan500]

Whiskey Vault I think it's #fakeinternetscience

[@bmxriderforlife1234]

try whiskey on the rocks. and try something like crown royal, if you cant drink that then yeah whiskey isnt for you. however if you want an interesting rum, then smoke and oakum from new zealand do a gun powder spiced rum. pirate day thing.

Top 5 big brands: my number one forever and always: Ardbeg 2: Laphroaig 3: Maclellan 4: Glenlivet 5: Talisker

[@tdolan500]

I find it hard to call what is a "big brand" I suppose Jameson and jack daniels spring to mind as they are giants. Glenfiddich and Grouse would be the main scotches in most people would name. For the last one I'm torn between bushmills, powers, bells or grants as they are all common bar whiskys and I'd love to know what you think of them.

Johnnie Walker has to be in there unless I'm not worldly enough.

[@tdolan500]

Jimmy Leg I very rarely see jonny walker in the uk or Ireland though. I think it's more in the American and European market but I agree it's a big one.

Is there a Biscuit Monster? No... there is only the COOKIE MONSTER! #TeamCookie

[@altangerelenkhtur5510]

Congrats on the 20K, you guys drank your way there haha

[@WhiskeyVault]

yes we did

[@vondano]

ok, i subbed, you guys are getting me to drink MUCH more scotch than i am supposed to... (and i do have quite a few...mostly Islay...) Did you guys try the Explorers club johnnie walker limited? ITS GREAT! I am not a blended type of guy (like i said, i love Islay) But this one is GREAT! You also gotta try the bowmore small batch (the green bottle) I prefer it to the regular 12yo. Anyway, done with the rambling. Keep on drinking.... now..... go drink NOW!

[@vondano]

ALSO! can you recommend me a good canadian whysky pls! (i am from Québec, Canada.)

[@WhiskeyVault]

I'm always in the market for another good whisky. Really need to try that blend. The Bowmore small batch is freakishly smooth to the point of almost mild. It's become a good gateway introduction to Islay or me to use.

[@WhiskeyVault]

This one is harder, but try to get Glenora's Glen Breton Single Malt

[@vondano]

The Tempest one got much more punch! But you cant beat Laphroaig for the price-to-greatness ratio (for my tastes)

[@vondano]

Its in my cart right now from our national liquor distributer! (saq.com here)They got realllllllly nice stuff! from 20$ to 20 000$

Team Biscuit. I am from the South and Biscuits & Gravy are the best!!!

[@Coniff]

Some ideas for the live show based on some comments I've read: 1. Do a Blind-folded taste test between three different whiskey's 2. Eat Pancakes with that one French whiskey that tasted like Syrup. 3. Top 5 or 10 favorite Whiskeys (From both of you) Looking forward to it no matter what!

[@WhiskeyVault]

good suggestions!
