Tonight we try possibly the rye of the year. It’s a shortbarrel MGP 131 proof 12 year old rye. Will this beat 13th Colony cask strength rye and others?

Hey guys, Matt from whiskey wisdom here, one of the two who selected this bottle with echoes in eternity bourbon! I have a case left of this bottle and give them away on my Friday night lives for free! Hope to see you there if you’re interested in one last chance for this bottle!

[@bourbonbill]

Guys great news one last chance on this killer bottle and it’s free

[@echoesineternitybourbon]

Hey Bourbon Bill! So glad you enjoyed bottle! It was love at first sip! Have an amazing day!! 🥃

[@bourbonbill]

You did an excellent job! If you go pick more let me know I’ll join with you guys if you want

[@3800fanatic]

Sounds amazing and the color 😮. I'll have to pay more attention to this brand

[@bourbonbill]

It sure is amazing stuff. You know the darker the better haha. I hadn’t paid much attention to them but if they keep doing picks like that they will make a good name for themselves

[@JordanVanderLaan]

I managed to track one of these down, easily one of the best ryes I’ve ever had. Thanks for doing the hard work for us Bourbon Bill!

[@bourbonbill]

Yeah absolutely agree. I saw a couple other places had picks in the 11-12yr range and similar proof so if you can get your hands on it it’s fantastic stuff

[@993C2S]

Great review. The 13th Colony cannot be found for less than $450 now. Shortbarrel is available for $135. So a much better deal if you say it's very close to the Colony.

[@bourbonbill]

Yes the short barrel is a way better value especially if you can find picks in the 11-12yr range grab it

[@thecrazemenchannel]

Bill that’s a dark one there. 😳 nice !

[@bourbonbill]

Yeah the darker usually the better and in this case that was true

[@thecrazemenchannel]

@@bourbonbill yep I like the darker bourbons and ryes for sure

[@The_Profezor]

Fantastic video! I will never get tired of your emotional reaction to these high proof aged whiskeys. Regarding comparables, I think Whistlepig has some SBBP offerings with both 10 and 12 year age statements. But somehow, I doubt they will compare to the ShortBarrel or 13th Colony. Cheers.

[@bourbonbill]

Thanks Ralph and yeah whistlepig has some good offerings but Canadian rye for me just never lives up

[@robertjennings9105]

Great review and two great people picked this one. Thanks for sharing.

[@bourbonbill]

Thanks and yes they sure did

[@mrzitro]

Great review. I appreciated you tasting it along with other ryes. OKI has a 11.5 year 95/5 MGP rye. River Roots also sourced some similar 95/5 MGP rye which they are using for barrel picks as well. #yearoftherye

[@bourbonbill]

It does seem like we are in a rye resurgence of high age stated ryes. And I’m here for it

[@motohead077]

Nice! Lots of surprise bottles again. Is it better than JD Brl Prf Rye shelfer? Or the pick u have?

[@bourbonbill]

Yes this is better than both JD ryes. It’s the age here the JD just isn’t as old so can’t bring that oak to the table

[@JosephRodriguez-c7d]

This sounds very good. I love when I get those notes on ryes.

[@bourbonbill]

Yeah it’s amazing stuff hard to find ryes like that today

[@durzagon88]

Great video a place in tampa did a rye pick with them will have to try it. You need to try knib 10 rye. Did a blind with all rye knob 10, Belle Sib, wilderness trail Sib, and Bulliet 12 and knob crushed them. The bulliet was the most disappointing for me.

[@bourbonbill]

Pa hasn’t gotten the KC10 yet but yeah I’m definitely getting a bottle and will compare I really liked the bulleit 12 so that will be in the comparison for sure

[@The_Profezor]

Agree your KC10 rye sentiment. It is so damn good. Barely legal rye, for sure, but damn delicious.

[@bluefish2766]

Love this Shortbarrel pick! Awesome review! Cheers!

[@bourbonbill]

Thanks and yeah it’s one of the best ryes I’ve had

[@OldFashionedWays]

yea look at that color. it is a great pour. may be rye of the year for sure. great review. cheers

[@bourbonbill]

I think it will make it as the winner but we still got half a year left lol cheers thanks for watching

[@davevogelsang6791]

Nice review BB. You know I have not been a big rye guy, but you and others are trying to turn me into one! I got this ShortBarrel 12 Year Rye pick from Sean and Matt. It drinks well below its proof and is very good. 🥃

[@bourbonbill]

Haha we are trying to convert you. Great snag on this pick it’s one of my favorite ryes already

[@DahBeers]

Was hoping to get get one of these as I follow echoes and eternity, but was already way over my bourbon budget especially after we just moved into our first house this month. I had bought an ecbp b524, 4 roses Barrel strength, bulleit 12 and a sagamore Albariño (with the free fancy tie of course)

[@bourbonbill]

All the ones you got were great as well! This is an exceptional rye though

[@DahBeers]

@@bourbonbill yeah I saw the post for it right after I had spent nearly 200 doll hairs at the liquor store. Sounds fantastic though!

[@bourbonbill]

Has anyone else come across this year any high age high proof mgp rye what other distilleries are putting it out?

[@jamesstreet1144]

I’ve only seen some core offerings from Short Barrel. I haven’t paid them much attention. It seems their products are beginning to pick up some steam on KZbin. Great review and comparisons today!

[@bourbonbill]

Thanks James and yeah I hadn’t paid much attention either but couldn’t ignore these stats and was happy I didn’t. If you see some picks check out the stats could be a hitter

[@jeffkastl1290]

I sub to both Sean and Matt. @Echoes in Eternity Bourbon @Whiskey Wisdom I was lucky enough to get one of these gems! My bottle is 96. I agree Bill. This is a Fantastic pick! Cheers🥃🥃🥃🥃

[@bourbonbill]

Hey we are only one bottle apart lol congrats on snagging this one. One of my favorite ryes and certainly in the current t top spot for rye of the year
