The 10 BEST Whiskeys For The Money

[@Tngoz]

Rare Breed... love. $42 at Sams Club. Can't beat the price and flavor

[@motohead077]

Where is that? KY, WV or AZ maybe?

[@motohead077]

@@Tngoz Ok, thanks. Won't be around there anytime soon. Lowest I found it in areas that I goto is $50 total (no sales tax on booz there)... Anyway, actually never had the Rare Breed yet & wanted to ask people how much different/better is it than the WT101? This year got a bunch of the 101 when found the 1.75L for $32.50 total, or $13.93/750mL. So was not in a rush to pay 3-4Xs for something that may be the same thing, just 10-15 proof higher. Would probably cost less to figure out how to remove water from the 101 & make it 115P, hah.. Yeah, so not sure if Rare Breed is aged any longer or selected from different barrels than 101. That would make some difference.

[@williamcornelison4721]

Thanks for then info. Now when I pick up my JBBL 7 yr, I'll also get a Rare Breed. at Sams Club.

[@gosman949]

too bad here in Texas, no Sams or Costco sells hard liquor. Only wine and beer.

[@stevenschwarz8871]

Old Forester 100 Is my daily drinker- great whiskey… my GGP & Grandfather made whiskey to sell in the clear, but they drank Old Forester… been a family tradition up here in the Mitten where I’m from for all of my 54 years… just did some work on a cabin my fam used to log, distill & hunt from , & found a really old jug of Forester- was still primo after 50 years 🏴‍☠️

[@Will_Dorsey]

Still Austin is doing slow water reduction so they basically re-add water to barrels so they don’t lose water so fast in the Texas heat. I think that’s the difference in flavor you get and it really tastes great!

[@djavanserafim7480]

I am Brazilian and I live in Brazil. I love your content. To me is the best YT channel related to cigars and whiskeys(Brian and whiskey tribe included) and other stuff. But let´s say that the Us Dollar is in the same price quote of brazilian Real...those whiskeys would cost over hundreds of dollars..So you guys are fortunate. The variety, the quality, all of what we would never have...

[@victorgazoni801]

Concordo 100%!

[@kmluedke]

A simple Evan Williams BIB is phenomenal at the $20 price. I feel very underrated as well as 1792 full proof

[@robertmarksmith9439]

I agree

[@Bourbonuniversity]

1792 is amazing. I need a back up to the back up

[@Rentcollector]

A jug is $30 in my area

[@AllPainNoGains]

The EW BIB is decent but I like the EW 1783 better. It’s a slightly lower proof but a lot more mature with an average age of 6 to 8 years. The BIB they pretty much bottle and ship the day it hits 4 years and it’s a bit too young for my taste.

Haven't seen the Jim Black 7 in my area yet but heard good things. Your list is spot on! For $35-40 give Redwood Empire Lost Monarch a try! It's a great one!

[@JeremySiers]

That is a good one!

[@tinicoleofficial]

I worked at a cigar lounge summer ‘22 & I was able to learn about bourbon & whiskey✨ such an awesome experience

[@barretthompson4755]

Thanks to you for the recommendation on the Woodford Reserve double oaked I brought a bottle and it's so smooth

[@davidcolquitt]

One of my staples, and quite frankly a good blanton’s replacement, is woodford double oaked. I can get it for 55-60 where I’m at so it’s always on the shelf.

[@mikeofborg2]

My First Sergeant at Fort Drum always had a bottle of Wild Turkey in his desk. He never passed up an opportunity to take shots with all us NCOs after work on Fridays.

[@kirklandeche937]

Great show! You featured several offerings from my shelf. The Turkey Trot: Russell's Reserve 10yr, Kentucky Spirit, Russell's Reserve Single Barrel, and Wild Turkey Rare Breed. The Storming Brown Forman: Old Foster 1910, Cooper's Craft 100, Old Foster 1920, and Jack Daniel's Single Barrel Barrel Proof. The Early Times Bottled in Bond, OGD 114, and Benchmark Full Proof, 1792 Bottled in Bond and Full Proof, not to mention a few others. Have a great day! Cheers!

[@chrisott9129]

I love how much Al is into Whiskey now.

[@dfwcorvetteking]

Early Times, BANGER!! Underrated budget whiskey. Great list! 👍🏽

[@rajrvis]

just picked up 2 bottles for $17 each here in Jacksonville based on @JeremySiers recommendation. Turn's out we live a 1/2 mile apart! Smells smooth and will try after dinner.

Balcones pot still bourbon is one of my favorites. Anything in the balcones line is amazing, but their pot still is my favorite.

Hellz yeah. Grab some backups they’re not distilling bourbon anymore.

[@gmant928]

Got a KC SBSP for $42 not long ago. Absolute steal

[@bohowlerson4959]

First video of your channel that I’ve seen in my suggested list. Seems like we have pretty similar tastes, awesome video. You got a new sub

[@cmounce79]

I haven’t had Jim Beam Black 7 yet but I can’t wait to do a blind between it and Evan William’s Small Batch. I’ve had all the rest you featured on your list and completely agree with you. Still Austin is hard to find here in rural Kentucky or I’d have more of it. Love the channel, keep it coming

[@louisvillebmxr]

I don't think Still Austin distribute to us here in KY just yet.

[@Rob-cz9ed]

I was watching a completely unrelated video (about space), stopped in the middle to run errands. On those errands I grabbed a bottle of Knob Creek SB Select store pick. Came home, finished video, in the suggested videos was this video's thumbnail featuring the exact bottle I had just bought. Serendipity. I then watch said video and it's a veritable list of all my favorites since I'm such a toasted and double oaked fan. I'm just pointing at the screen nodding for the most part. Cheers!

[@Razieleatssouls]

Some hitters I'd toss in are Old Grand Dad 114, Benchmark Full Proof, and New Riff single barrel bourbon. My bottle of Knob Creek 120 proof was kind of harsh at first, but after a week or so of opening up the bite really mellowed out and now it's delicious.

[@motohead077]

OGD 114 & Bonded are fantastic, but what hurts them from being on the value list (at least the Bonded) is that they are not available in the 1.75L size. Bonded has 1L in some states, but 114 is 750mL only.

[@toddtrent1973]

Love the list!!! Haven’t had Still Austin though. That Jim Beam Black 7 year is a bargain banger!!! I put it up there with my favorite bargain banger WT101.

[@motohead077]

So I hate JB white & DO as do lots of people. Though I love WT, Knob Creek line, OGD line. Is there any chance I would like the new Jim Beam 7yr?

[@WillGro4]

So I tried the Wild Turkey 101, amazing!!

[@007jpool]

I could not agree more about Still Austin. Best Texas juice hands down!

[@JeremySiers]

So good right!!

[@0529mpb]

Still Austin has so much potential. It just needs another year in the barrel to mellow out the grain/youthful notes. I still like the cask strength. It just needs that little bit extra time.

[@Mrslaunter2be]

Bought some Viski whiskey glasses based on this reco and I have to admit they are great. I feel the aroma and flavor is enhanced and weight/balance is perfect.

[@Matt369oi]

Great video! Can you do one on whiskeys between $100 and $200?

[@mikeives5233]

Love and agree with this entire list...really enjoy the content! Still Austin is doing great things...that double oak Sag is great, I'm also a big fan of their 8-yr and cask strength. And just came across that rebranded Beam...so great for the price...as good as some recent Bookers IMO.

[@armandofdez78]

WOW ... it's interesting how so many of us agree on your list ... YOU NAILED IT !!!

[@owenlushadv]

That WT 101 and RB are so good, you can always find them and I always keep em on the shelf!!

[@Jared40]

Just got the Jim Beam Black 7 Year this weekend very good solid 90 proof

[@aaronfrench8322]

Glad to see my all time favorite Bourban made it on the list-Old Forester 1920!

[@chrisretcho1476]

I'm with you on the Still Austin....that Cask Strength is a banger for the price. Love it. And yes, really cool folks at Still Austin.

[@rogerhage1377]

Love the video great vibe man keep up the great work friend love the intensity keep it up

[@texas2109]

Great video, going to check out viski though glasses look dope!

[@dhen5543]

Love the Rare Breed…. Nice and Smooth. Everyone I have given this too …loves it and it’s now their go too

[@craigscates1766]

Banger list! WT101 is the Swiss Army knife of bourbon - great for every operation. Rare Breed is arguably the best value bourbon in the entire store - rock solid! The only one missing from the list is Chattanooga Whiskey Cask 111; coming at $45 or less, an absolutely delicious pour and every day drinker. 🙌🥃

[@gregorybuchheit2250]

Im at the stage of my whiskey journey where I dont chase any bottles anymore and only drink what I can pull off the shelf. Wild turkey and Old Forester are the sweet spot for me between availability, price, and quality. #bangforyourbuck #Viski

[@chipaydlette6163]

First time watching the channel. Loved it! Love that KC, Sagamore, and Rare Breed.

[@Urban-Explorer365]

I second Old Forster 1920 and Knob Creek SB, which doesn’t have to be a store pick. I like Wild Turkeys 101 and Rare Breed, what I prefer though is use that money to buy me Russell’s Reserve Single Barrel, very nice experience and much more complex and enjoyable. Cheers!

[@HashknifeKid]

Good list! Not a big fan of the Old Forester, except for the 1897 but definitely with you on the Knob Creek!

[@ericellis2729]

Love those Viski glasses! Bought a pair after seeing them used by Matt Porter on ADHD Whiskey and they're my favorite whiskey glasses!

[@jeremybrouillard6951]

Great stuff! Definitely going to try that toasted Penelope.

[@bigdaddy4691]

Everybody's different. A lot of people like Maker's 46 but, I get a good flavor from it, but on the nose I get a fingernail polish remover that is hard for me to get past. Rare Breed is one I don't let myself run out of. I'm also a big fan of double oaks. I also love Ryes. One of my favorite farm distilleries is coming out with a new rye this summer, and I just happen to be visiting the area when the release is happening. I am definitely booking a tour, and tasting.

[@ssbn401]

Love the list! Can't get Early Times BiB for MSRP in my area. Got a bottle for $50 around 4 months ago or so and it was a steal (seen it for upwards of $80 in my area).

[@bamasurp]

I just bought a set of 4 Admiral Rocks glasses from Viski using your link! Keep up the great videos!

[@DeadlinedVet]

New to the channel. Great content! I have most of these, but I’ll add the rest to my collection.

Have you tried Nikka Coffey Grain Whisky? Love to see both your opinion on it. Not crazy expensive either. ...and getting easier to find.

Got to try Still Austin last time I was in Texas - great bourbon!! Good choice. Go look up the story of the distillery too!

Cant go wrong with Wild Turkey 101. Used to drink as a kid. Now i actually use a glass. Keep up the good work Jeremy and Allison! #bangforyourbuck#viski

[@LorneGreen-n9y]

All in on the Turkey. Love the Sagamore Double Oak. Everything Sagamore.

[@travishale4961]

Love wild turkey 101 and the Still Austin cask strength is excellent. I would have also included Jack Daniels Single barrel barrel proof and the barrel proof Ryes are always excellent.

[@samueltorres6897]

Your channel just came up on my feed-like your stuff-subscribed. Keep up the good info and down to Earth info👍

[@BondingOverBourbon]

We love basically all of these, especially the Still Austin and Old Fo 1920. These are all staples on our shelves and super tasty value sippers.

[@Sixx28]

I just picked up a Penelope Toasted this past weekend. It’s only a char level 2. It is very tasty. I pick up a lot of honey notes on it. Would be interesting to try yours with the (what I am assuming is their…Alligator Char”)

You both are Awesome!! Knob Creek and Penelope always enjoyable on a Friday night chilling with my best friend (my Wife) Cheers! 🥃

[@jackjolley6143]

Just picked up an eagle rare and an eh Taylor small batch for 40 and 48 respectively

[@tbryant2002]

spot on...that new jim beam 7 year is insane for the price. but the best value for the buck is for sure knob creek sb picks..however im shocked there was no Makers Mark store pick on here as around 110 ish proof and priced well makes my top 10 for sure!!! Cheers

Always a great time when Big Al is in the house! Great vid as always!

[@ericlofroos2405]

Out of the Old Forester collection, I like the 1910 the best! Wild Turkey Rare Bread is the best. (Period) Penelope toasted is a good pick too. The Still Austin pick, not a fan. It’s ok I don’t like Sagamore, including their highly rated Ryes Knob Creek is over rated to me First time viewer! Love your show. Thanks for sharing.

[@bretleg]

Glad still Austin is catching on. We went to the distillery opening and missed it once we moved to Florida. #bangforyourbuck #viski

[@curtchesnutt4992]

Nice list guys...hard to winge but I'd perhaps sub the Beam 7 for an Old Forrester 1910. Regardless - all pretty good drinkers or outstanding value.

[@phewd]

Penelope is one of my new favorites. French Oak is an acquired taste, but The Architect is my go-to...

[@GopherM]

I love the Penelope Toasted but all of their juice is great. I am enjoying the Architect now.

[@datN.O.Colombiano]

As I'm watching this video, I'm sipping Old Forrester with Ginger Ale. Its my go to daily drinker. As well as Woodford Reserve and Benchmark.

[@Hahahahahahaha505]

I would love for you to find an old Black & White scotch. I found some falling apart, dusty old bottles for 14 bucks and from the look of the bottles i immediatly knew that it was a steal because god know for how long they were heavenly rotting in that place. Just as you would think, i bought them, opened a bottle and it was pure wood, smoky and petroleum like taste which i loved. I never found a bottle again. I still regret i didnt save a bottle to this day because it looked like they were the very first edition, vintage bottles with the labels all old and falling apart.

You’re absolutely right, the whiskey prices have gotten out of control. Great video! #bangforyourbuck #viski

Sagamore DO is a Banger sleeper.....on sale in my area for $49. Great juice.

[@BrewtallyHonestBourbon]

Going to have to revisit my Penelope Toasted. Didn't think it was bad, but not exactly my jam. Give me all the SA offerings. Def putting Texas Bourbon on the map. Maybe the only texas whiskey I have liked. Have you tried Dettling Cask Strength Bourbon out of Atmore Alabama? Its amazing. Dark, buttery, chocolatey, and a nice finish. Price point is above this review, just thought I would mention it.

[@gabefarrer9627]

Great video y'all & even better pull on the Sagamore Double Oaked! My buddies & I had a chance to tour the Sagamore distillery up in Baltimore & highly recommend the experience. Learning about the impact of their local grain sourcing in Maryland & their limestone water filtration process was fascinating. The combo of caramel & toasted coconut note on that one is a personal favorite. Hoping my next #bangforyourbuck pour is in that HOLD FAST #viski glass

[@Gonzo.357]

If you can get it in you area get a new riff single barrel. Bought one last week and went in the next day to get a backup. Single barrel 118 proof from Kentucky 4 years old for 50$ is my new favorite. Call it the Blantons killer

[@jshapiro34]

Still Austin has a red corn that is different If you like them you will Like it same goes for michters and jack sour mashes they are different but I enjoy the distillers so everything from them I will pour and be content with.

Seeing a lot of my favorites on this list. From the double oaks I really like OF1910 the most - the butterscotch is so front and center, I want to poor it over a pancake and eat it. Looking through the comments, I guess everyone already knows about the KC SBSB, I thought I was keeping it all a secret just for myself... good thing they are always plenty available, or I would have been a little mad my secret got out. 😅 A little surprised no Buffalo Trace or Maker's Mark products made the list, but then there is only 10 spots, so I get it. Solid list!
