Is this the most INNOVATIVE distillery???

Rex and Daniel landed at the Ghost Hill Ranch (home of Treaty Oak Distilling) with 1 objective that quickly fell apart. What was intended to be a case study on sourcing with grain to glass credentials, quickly turned a corner. After a few anecdotes, a hungover accident, and a macabre experiment - they realized that this could be one of the most innovative distilleries operating today. Tell us, what other innovations are in seeing in the world of whiskey making??? We'll see you in the comments, MB.

Guys I'm loving your visits to fellow distillers in Texas (and further afield) please do more when conditions allow.

[@timfoote6919]

I love the field trips!

[@alexg8883]

This channel is like one of my only solaces right now! Keep up the great content, guys :)

[@jeckwhite9099]

Love Treaty Oak. Glad you guys are doing videos together and working together.

[@curtishoffmann6956]

No reason to make jokes this time. This was just a really good, informative, interesting, and well-edited episode. Nicely done and kudos to everyone. Now, I just wish I could drink the juice.

[@rubbaslippaz]

I live in Hawaii and have a hard time getting anything but big mainstream whiskies. I had a bottle of Ghost Hill shipped to me because of this video and I'm enjoying it very much. I loved this video and hope you to more like it with other Texas (or any) distilleries. Mahalo! 🥃🤙

[@dmusicmonkey]

Love the episode, I think next time I’m at the store I will definitely pick up a bottle. Love when you guys put a story behind the whiskey (specifically Texas whiskey) so it makes it easier to enjoy a drink when you can associate it to some cool people working hard making something you are paying this much money for.

[@AlphaOneActual]

I have two bottles the Ghost Hill Bourbon Single Barrels that were aged underground & open air. When it becomes plausible again, perhaps I should trek down to Austin and allow the mooch & somm to partake?

[@bahbahblacksheep311]

All I can say is I’m driving to Chattanooga to get me a bottle. Thanks for the awesome video! Raised in Texas, I’m loving it!!!!

[@bendarel]

Love this episode, it really allows us into a much deeper look into a new distillery that is really trying out new things and will to push boundaries and sometimes fails but keep learning on the path. Great video of an even greater distillery ! Now, please deliver in Europe too, I would like to spend some money on you guys XD

[@ErikWaitWhiskyStudies]

I enjoyed visiting Treaty Oak Distilling in April 2019.... just after the craziest torrential down pour! So, I did NOT enjoy the dirt parking lot which had turned to mud. Its is an absolutely beautiful estate and the place was hopping with live music and a lot of people enjoying the Texas sun which drove the clouds away.

[@ChrisWCorp]

I love the idea that Treaty Oak is pushing for more technical/automation and unique experiments when making Texas whiskey. Living in Texas, this will have to be an added stop to my Texas distillery visits very soon!

[@saucyl3477]

This was an especially amazing episode! Great job guys!

[@RealMenWearKilts]

Just got one of the TREATY OAK GHOST HILL TX BOURBON that was limited to 300 barrels. This was a really good and informative show and a lot of fun to watch. Keep up the good work.

[@joethompson3519]

We were there on the 7th and loved the ghost hill bourbon and the property. Tons of fun. When things even out again we’re going back.

[@seanleal2292]

Love the focus on sustainability. If you look into their website it's really cool the innovative stuff they are doing to reduce water and energy consumption.

[@shawnewaltonify]

Outstanding job by everyone involved. I think this video proves how important whiskey science is for getting consumers talking about the whiskey that is evolving as young distilleries build themselves. Ultimately, this is about building a brand that can stand the test of time. But we all want the whiskeys to be judged too. Well done!

[@alyr9640]

This was awesome content guys! Thanks for sharing. Hope you and yours are well!

[@thespiritmonkey9956]

The Spirit Monk[e]y bids you all a good day.

[@steelwarrior105]

So let it be written, so let it be done

[@DavePruett]

Gotta love all the people in the world creating wonderful new food and drink: distillers, chefs, farmers, winemakers, craft beer brewers, whatever.

[@kmccarthy327]

This stuff is so fascinating. As someone who wasted so many years on a Materials Science degree to work in IT. This is the stuff I should have been looking to get into and study. Love the science of all!

[@jstewart3iii]

So much respect toward Treaty Oak! It's obvious that they get what experimentation and historical admiration can make in perfect harmony. Really blown away by what they are doing. Makes me proud to be a Texan!

[@gianniverschueren870]

When half the ad is Rex laughing like a maniac. Perfect

[@stiliyanivanov3076]

You now made me dream a bit more of comming to TX some day! Good visit 👍

[@marcwhiskey]

Thank God half of the ad time is just Rex laughing 😂

[@TheChazaqingdude]

Loved this! Proud of my fellow Texans and looking forward to tasting!

[@jameslanning8405]

Barrel aged gin... I'm intrigued! The concept of production without following lifetimes of tradition, sounds great... Or maybe... There are reasons for at least some of those traditions in whiskey production, that have a direct effect on the outcome of the product! Whiskey schnapps! LOL

[@timfoote6919]

0:32 this is the quality content I expect!!!

[@terri200026]

Fantastic trip for the show, I like the distillery trips, I especially love this one. These people are in love with their craft, she has outstanding knowledge of what they are doing there and she articulates it so well. I'm thinking about moving back to Texas soon and I will most certainly be visiting them and the two of you and "Try em ALL" LoL.

[@befuddled2010]

Love you guys for productions like this!

[@cannistershot2277]

The 'ground aging' was interesting... Love that she calls it 'juice'. :)

[@morganshedd6008]

I love the Ghost Hill barrel pick I have. It's unique and familiar at the same time. Keep up the good work.

[@j_lemy]

AD TIMER: 40 *Rex: ”WeLL HeLLo tHeRe”* *Also Rex: ”WhY aM I tAlKiNg LiKe ThiS”* AD TIMER: 35 *Rex proceeds to laugh like a maniac* AD TIMER: 20 *Advertisement starts* *Rex proceeds to mess up multiple times trying to say a simple sentence* AD TIMER: 01 *Rex barely gets through the advertisement (if you can even call it that at this point)* *Also Rex: ”Nailed it”* Gotta love Rex, such an entertaining guy.

[@octo_contra]

really exciting episode, can't wait to try a trio of single malts, one aged in their texas weather, one in their kentucky weather, and one in their scotland weather!

[@tomcox875]

"My job does not suck" I said 'wow' and laughed out loud. I have the combined mental state of Daniel and Rex. I don't know if I should go buy a nice bottle or visit a well stocked friend. There is no doubt she loves her job and no doubt she is good at it!

[@henryprater703]

Great episode. Had a fun quick visit to Treaty Oak back in January. Looking forward to getting to spend more time there next time I’m out that way.

[@Bladewing10]

Man, this was a great episode! So informative, I had no idea these distilleries and micro-distilleries go to experiment! It makes me want to check out my local distilleries!

[@grevari1772]

So I am a more recent fan. I was a big fan of Jameson as is. But since watching I decided to try and note what I am tasting. And have tried other whiskeys with a trend of knowing what I am tasting. I Long story short (too late) I am curious if you guys have tried my new favorite Irish whiskey, The Sexton single malts copper pot distilled. It was the first one where I actually could smell and taste the flavors without looking on line to see what was in the whiskey. Anyway, keep it up guys, love the show.

[@Grunt_0288]

Very Impressive,, Cant wait to get me hands on a bottle,, ✌🏻👊🏻

[@mexibilly75]

I really like this format. Having those not experienced in spirits and having them find their path m

[@ArizonaRE]

I can listen to her talk about whiskey forever 😀

[@ahpadt]

I want that barrel aged gin they mentioned!!

[@rurugby]

It's a great idea. Why not try new things!

[@eriksonofander]

No shenanigan this episode but it was not necessary. I definitely "nerded out" on this one.

[@who2u333]

Can't wait for this quarantine to end. I need to make a trip out to Treaty Oak. I like what they are doing.

[@sarahgiggles9444]

Rex's laugh at the beginning of the ad reminds me so much of Ledger's Joker during the little home video he released to the news ("LOOK AT ME!")

[@donselman2123]

Most excellent video! I think I'm in love with Jamie.

[@rurugby]

Pretty much.

[@SR-jz6jh]

Some of the best things have happened by mistakes being made. Great video and hope to try your product sometime, being from Canada we don't get to see a lot different whiskeys like the USA

[@gonerydin4225]

Jamie makes me happy : )

[@SchrottiJr]

Oh yeah, whatever they're paying her it's not enough.

[@KillCoMentalMusings]

I was fortunate enough to visit Treaty Oak when I was in Texas last November doing my small Texas Whiskey trail. They have an amazing property, rustic decor and even a restaurant on site near the tasting room! Food and drink was top notch as you can imagine, and one of my favorite displays was a smelling station with different flowers, spices and citrus to compare to what you smelled in the whiskey! I do hope to visit again someday when I am less in a hurry so I can lounge around a bit more and take in the atmosphere once again.

[@distlledbrewedreviewed]

Interesting vide my friends. I love visiting distillerys.

[@GAS180.]

Being from Aberdeen. Was nice to hear that.

[@gearsdowntoo]

We visit family in Austin a couple times a year. We bring home at least a bottle of Still Austin each time.👍 Treaty Oak is on our tour list.

[@mclarpet]

Ken amazing distillation column - like something out of a chemical plant.

[@matthewtwright84]

Also think it's funny, "what we dont need is another Kentucky bourbon"...first thing I see in paper this morning is new distillery going up in Clermont Ky

[@inscruitablefilletknifesha2681]

I actually hung out with you guys back in 2012 back when y'all were in KC,MO

[@rurugby]

Reminds me of Allagash Brewing in Portland, Maine. Using your popular products do you can experiment. I love how they are experimenting constantly.

[@ClearVoyageNS]

Best ad spot ever.

[@ate-4891]

Great video guys, really informative and interesting. My home town of Glenrothes has a new distillery called InchDairnie that only started in 2015, they've apparently changed the process of making the whisky while still keeping to the legal requirements to be considered scotch. Don't know if yous have heard about them yet but I'm really intrigued to find out how it turns out.

[@mnorth1351]

Best ad ever!!!

[@justinmyser]

Completely new to whiskey and have yet to even try one neat. Love the channel and videos. My parents love Knob Creek and I was wondering if anyone knew if the channel had any videos featuring it?

[@OutdoorsWithShawn]

It's interesting how storing the barrels vertically lessens the Angel's share... I wouldn't think the orientation of the barrel would matter.

[@matthewtwright84]

As someone who lives outside of Bardstown, I can tell you the weather in the last few years has be a little different and if this continues, the bourbon results will be a little different than it had traditionally.

[@epodcam]

Very cool, love the distillery! So we left gin in barrels for 20 years! Sadly it’s not available in the USA yet but really happy to see the idea of barrel aged gin becoming more popular. Our gin’s called Fifty/50/Gin if anyone’s interested.

[@ahpadt]

epodcam can you get it in the uk?

[@epodcam]

ahpadt Hi! Yes, it’s available from the House of MacDuff website or from the Master of Malts website.

[@SeniorMoistener]

their Waterloo No. 9 is my standby gin, I had no idea they were such an interesting and distinctly texan distillery until now

[@SeniorMoistener]

I also didn't know they were in dripping springs, along with andalusia, crowded barrel, and salt lick Truly a blessed region

[@xcyted4now]

Thanks for this great video!!

[@scotthammond3105]

Great episode and love the comments regarding "sourcing". Happy I can find some of their product hear in Chicago at Binny's (biggest liquor chain in the Chicagoland area). During this "Stay-At-Home" order, Binny's is considered "Essential"! Grabbing a bottle on Monday and then back to hiding at home. The best to all of you out there and your families. Giddy Up!

[@keving9111]

Kudos to Texas Whiskey Innovation!

[@robydoan3961]

Jamie needs to come "Home" to Kentucky!

[@mclarpet]

The top of the building added on over the column is referred to as a penthouse roof.

[@wolfridsson7239]

Seems to be a really cool experimental whisky distillery. I think experimenting is a real good thing....as long as it's whisky in the end.

[@TinkerGrey]

Their Antique Gin is quite the find. I've been buying that for quite a while. It's cheaper than others that I've found and it's the best I've had. I'd almost (almost!) say that if I were only permitted to drink one thing, the Antique Gin might be it.

[@fredd4526]

I'm gonna visit Wizardo Fads asap!

[@thebamboozler789]

I love that these guys are pretty inexpensive as well. Locally in So Cal I found a bottle of their bourbon for $40.

[@MakooWallinen]

I think Rex successfully made an ad in a video I might intentionally rewatch a few times....

[@rowef]

Loved this one

[@Spiritus_Invictus]

guys, I dont know if you know what camera was used here @ 10:39, but there is a dead pixel at Rex's hair.

[@dukewheeler7846]

There’s a place in Kansas City called Rieger‘s, and they have been re-purposing some of their distillate into “pay what you can” hand sanitizer due do the shortage going around, it would be great if you could show them some love

[@StillLivinginthewoods]

Smart lady,... and a hottie too.

[@adamw2785]

There is a distillery in Richland, WA. It is called Solar Spirits Distillery. They heat their stills with only solar thermal power. Talk about innovative!

[@mrrockguy9311]

Checkmate haters! She called the to-be whisky juice!

[@Jake-jl8lt]

You guys should taste test Starlight Distillery BlackBerry Whiskey 84 proof from Huber winery in Indiana. I'm literally DYING to know your take on this Whiskey. Apparently it's not considered a bourbon and I'm unable to find out what goes into this make of whiskey other than their own blackberry orchards. Sincerely yours truly, Magnificent Basterd Jake Bryan!

[@alellisande696]

Love the dog house for the still

[@biscuitninja]

When you turn around, you need a cat in your lap.

[@bigpapa984]

That gal is really excited about Texas.

[@PhatTrumpet2]

Jamie is indeed an all-around badass.

[@elixwhitetail]

I want to visit Texas but I don't know where I'd find the money to buy bottles from all the cool Texas distilleries I would want to support, and I have no idea how I'd afford all the duty on bringing a truckload of whiskey back into Canada. At least I have Shelter Point nearby to keep me warm.

[@baruchdor]

"hello i don't know why i talking like this ha ha ha" you killed me

[@darwin8u2]

“Fucking with things we know a lot about.”

[@twotallguysadv]

Dope

[@TreatyOakDistilling]

cheers!

[@Sunny-jz3dy]

😂🤣😂🤣😂 Thats interesting to see how another distillery is run. How open they seem to be in trying new things. Thats got to help you guys... having other distillers that deal with the same type of climate issues! Pretty cool!

[@curtishoffmann6956]

Although, I do have to say that after watching this video, I still don't understand all the controversy of juicing in sports. Is it a lack of supply? Do distillers need to make more? Cause, yeah, I can get behind that, then.

[@BauldeagleX]

Aberdeen....of all places 😂😂😂

[@nathanhuey3734]

10:05.... what happens when you sponsor a show about drinking high proof whiskey to promote your business...

[@matthewcombs9059]

Man... if one of the pallets broke..... if like that warehouse would tumble like dominoes Maybe not.... but that's a ton of stacked weight

[@rurugby]

I bet there are failsafes.

[@leelovellette8133]

So Cool

[@matthewsawczyn6592]

All this so we can sip some whiskey It's quite humbling really

[@joshj867]

Hey guys, I'm new to the channel and I have to ask, what does it take to become a Whiskey Tribe Knight or a Magnificent Bastard?

[@joekubenetz3831]

So I just got into whiskey a few months ago and at first I was drinking allot of bourbon and really liked it. Lately I've tried some Irish and a few Scotch whiskies and now I can't find a bourbon I like anymore. Wtf happened to me?

[@Olivier_HS]

Somehow, the add was as good as the episode xD

[@enoordman]

Only talk no drinking is like a song without any lyrics :) :)
