Shoutout here from Holland MI!😎

[@bradleygroenhof8183]

I’m from holland! We are in the middle of Tulip Time currently. Might just have to pick up a Joseph Magnus to celebrate

[@B-Rye-N]

Glad to see a review on the different batches and differences.

[@Beefy620]

Been wondering about this one for a bit, thanks for the review

[@jamessocal8946]

Yep.the older cigar blends were something. Although with so many blends and with limited availability (and funds) it’s hard to be too definitive. It’s $300 when you can find it in my area.

[@paden6493]

Joseph Magnus I think in general is underrated. They were pricing it high out the gate but bc of Nancy they’re always on point.

[@bobschannel1844]

How is JMCB considered underrated when it is always hard to find and/or allocated?!😂

[@talljohn5350]

I have 35, 138, and 159. 35 is amazing 138 is underwhelming and 159 might be even better than 35. They’re not meant to be the same so they’re going to vary which also means some will be better than others. I would take the chance though anytime I saw a bottle for under $240

[@marklee9374]

Very helpful guide to this bourbon. Thanks for the video, Matt!

[@damoncrutchfield3018]

Great video, I know that Nancy the Nose stated to after the neck pour to let it sit for awhile then go back to it. I have Batch 81 and 85 and they got way better after a month.

[@CPGumby]

Managed to score my very first bottle of JMCB last month (and at MSRP too!), and it's also batch 131. I have been waiting to have friends over for cigars to actually crack the bottle, but I don't know how much longer I can wait. If I can ever find an older batch to try, I'm definitely going to spring for it if it's reasonable.

[@christopherm.2413]

JM cigar blend is definitely on the unicorn list. The triple cask finish is very good and very available in my area. Badass review as always Matt! 🥃

[@brmicmatthews8398]

I just finished a bottle of the triple cask. It’s not very available where I live in upstate NY though. I liked everything but the finish, had a weird flavor like rubbing alcohol almost. It’s kind of the same thing I get with the sazerac Early Times.

[@kevinclingaman6277]

I would like a written transcript of the last minute of todays show. 😂

[@thomasmichael6509]

I had 113 at a bar yesterday, it was very okay. Not comparable to the early batches which were incredible

[@kevinwibicki4400]

I have an unopened bottle of batch #8 after i finished off a batch #22. One of the better bourbons I have had.

[@chriszilar3657]

I did not know the newer ones were different….I’m so thankful I scored a batch 69! Thanks for the heads up👍

[@venomous1071]

How is your batch 69 ?

[@chriszilar3657]

@@venomous1071 really good. I have yet to try a newer batch to compare.

[@apolloguitars]

Batch 59 also, phenomenal.

[@davevogelsang6791]

Was lucky to pick up batch #93, which is sweet and fruity. Love it. 🥃

[@WhiskeyAndReading]

My local store made a mistake one morning and put this on the shelf for $122. Much more palatable than the $166 it was listed for later that afternoon

[@jshhodge9735]

I still have half a bottle of Batch 26 that I have been hidiing from myself since it truly is a once a year (or every two) pour. I also have a JMCB batch 105 and it recently lost in a blind to Doc Swinsons triple cask barrell proof (that cost $68 and that sits on shelves). Not saying it isn't good, but not nearly the same caliber sadly.

[@Chris-de2qc]

Low 100s were not up to par per Nancy

[@HighSpinSwingSpeed]

I opened my batch 68 and I honestly regret opening it that it taste so good,

[@paulsylvester1715]

I had batch 91 and really liked it. Have not found another to buy of any batch since

[@jpen22]

Great review, funny as hell. Thanks for starting my morning off laughing.

[@fr2ncm9]

I just finished two drams of Foresquare Sagacity aged Rum while listening to the two Jazz legends, Ahmad Jamal and McCoy Tyner. Needless to say, I'm a happy boy right now.

[@thebourbonengineer6903]

Matt, great review of batch 131, l was lucky enough to find batch 85 (blueberry bomb a 9.3) at retail and hope to find 131. Keep up the reviews! @Nancy F rocks!!!

[@Bill.K.]

Love me some JMCB.

[@CSAN]

I have four batches. The earlier ones are definitely better. Unfortunately, mine don’t go as far back as 66. I have 86, 90, 100 and 142…not that you care Great review and comparison 👊

[@koumamahed3089]

How would you say the 142 compares to the 86?

[@venomous1071]

I also have batch 90 and 142 . Which do you like better ?

[@CSAN]

@@venomous1071 I recently tasted 86, 90 and 142 in one sitting to be able to answer honestly. 86 was the winner hands down. More complexity than 90 and 142. 90 gets a slight edge over 142 but I’m not sure how much of that is mental based on seeing the bottles. All are great but 86 is another level

[@venomous1071]

Good to know thnx for the response , I thinking about picking up batch 68 which was same group as the sample Matt just tried which is batch 66.

[@CSAN]

@@venomous1071 oh cool! I’d love to get some earlier batches. Enjoy

[@bsobie]

I have a batch 57 I’ve been milking and a 136. 136 is very good but 57 is just a different animal. Having the new one helps make the 57 last though

[@PNW_bourbon_buds]

I have a bottle of batch 41 and it's the best bottle of anything I've ever had. I picked up a batch 150 something the other day. Now I'm real interested how it's going to be.

[@buzzerbaby]

Batch 110 here, not disappointed in the least 🥃

[@bobbalkovec]

I just snagged a bottle of J.M. finished in Sherry and Cognac. Looking forward to cracking that bad boy open.

[@bobbalkovec]

Matt, ever have the MJ finished?

[@swopeti]

I think like all sourced bottes start out very good since they are using the premium barrel they first find and then those stocks fade and you can see it in the drink. The blenders are still really good they just dont have the same quality to blend. My best example is Smoke Wagon still good just not as good.

[@chuongnguyen131]

I own 7+ of these...I love the whole 130 series.

[@chappy824]

Need that part that was edited out. Got me feelin like a barracougar over here.😂

[@blove932]

Can I send you a sample of Batch 19?

[@ryanparker4775]

I wish you would

[@teddyballgame25]

Haven’t had the new stuff but those older bottles of JMCB are in the top 5 whiskeys I’ve ever had. Turtle titties is right!

[@lancerobbins24]

So what you’re saying is…batch 66 should have been labeled “Jessica Simpsons freshly riden saddle”? GOT IT! 👍🏼👍🏼

[@tannerclements6583]

I finally found a batch 114 and was expecting to be blown away, but was a little underwhelmed. I still really like the bottle, but it’s not one of the best bottles I’ve tried.

[@LeatherDaddy97]

I think nancy herself said she wasnt sure about that group of batches

[@Chris-de2qc]

Yup

[@Sniper269]

Ironic that I just picked up a bottle today. Mine is Batch 159 and Bottle #362. Here's hoping it is great at $200.

[@troybucher6383]

I have batch 71 and its great!

[@James.s]

This one is on my list, but maybe I should just get the Innkeepers Blend.

[@robertrussell840]

Matt, tell Into the AM to send you a size smaller tshirt. You’re freakin’ ready!!

[@UltrahotPeppers]

I know a couple Cigar Blend went through my local shop for just over $200 but there's still a few of the Joseph Magnus 100 proof silver label that I really am trying to save up that $99 for. Cheers Matt!!!

[@BudgeG80]

I just wanted you to say Grand Rapids too just for no good reason at all just because I live there and not because it has anything to do with Holland,Mi and Jos A Magnus.. but as soon as you said west michigan I was hoping it would be included.. Good video by the way.

[@bourbonbill]

Haha not a surprise that they are putting out younger stuff for still a high price riding the coattails of the good stuff they used to put in. I doubt they have access to high aged barrels like that anymore

[@dunny2124]

It is a glorious bottle, have the MI only batch 👍

[@tomreilly9295]

I’ve seen other reviews and batch 58 was probably the best!

[@100puremustard5]

I passed on a batch #68 @ $300....... maybe I made a mistake...???

[@marceltetreault2424]

[@scottdemaree5852]

Aren't all older bottles better though. It's also cheaper now. Just saying.

[@mattstorr728]

I believe the quality has gone down. I have the tobacconist which is exceptional and another one. Just recently bought batch 140 something and it’s off the mark. Just doesn’t have the depth. I am a big deal too and know my whiskey

[@ericsawyer2995]

Matt is the King of Kings

[@LeatherDaddy97]

Nancy is obviously an amazing blender, that hasnt changed, but i definitely dont think she has the kind of barrels available she used to. I still consider batch 55 to be the best bourbon ive ever had.

[@mojo88bassandbourbon72]

If you can't taste the difference between 20 year old bourbon and 10 year old bourbon, then that totally makes sense.

You’re in the majority of people who can’t tell the difference in taste between light beer and actual beer. Or Dr Strangelove and Napoleon Dynamite. Or wisdom and idiocy.
