Rob, I bought a bottle, still haven't cracked and just waiting for an opportunity or when my open stock depletes...what do you think about Tomatin Oloroso Sherry 2003?
@WhiskyInThe68 жыл бұрын
Haven't had an opportunity to try the Tomatin 2003 but I would imagine it's amazing. I know for sure its a collectable whisky. You'll like the Virginia Black. Good bang for your buck.

Just tried VB for the first time. I'm a whiskey lover, specifically Jack Daniels and honestly compared to JD its much more appealing physically. As far as taste I feel it could've been aged much more longer. Its much more smoother no burn from the first sip as you let it stimulate your tongue which of course means it will creep up on you so in my opinion if your skeptical on trying whiskey due to its strength I recommend VB but to all the real MEN of the world I say JD or Johnny Walker will give you everything you want. Overall rating is a 10 out of 10 for its physical appeal. 7 out of 10 for its taste for those who cannot handle pure aged whiskey. So in conclusion, for all you amateur's this is right up your alley. Enjoy!

Thanks for the comment Durrell. VB was designed to be a bit lighter to attract a female crowd. I agree it should have been a older and bottled at 43%. Thanks for watching buddy, cheers.

Hey Rob, just a quick note I wanted to drop after reading some comments on this video: First off, I had a bottle of this and downed it first night. Your review was spot on, A- 100%. Second, I feel like everyone commenting negative on VB either don't like Drake or are new to whiskey so do not know whats good or bad. Even though price has been raised to $50 I still think it is defiantly worth the price. A $50 whiskey with no burn, smooth as silk, and an amazing taste, what else could someone want LOL.

Slim Shady thanks buddy. I agree. Wish they would have kept the price down though. Cheers.

On the subject of American Whiskey, I hear rumors that OLD GRAND DAD 114 will be discontinued. Some one also told me LAPHROAIG 18 would be discontinued last year, but it is still available. What is your opinion of Discontinue rumors. To me it seems just a ploy to increase sales.
@WhiskyInThe67 жыл бұрын
Some whiskies are discontinued but take a while to deplete. There are a bunch of Glenfiddich whiskies that have been discontinued that are still available such as the 15 year old distiller's edition, the Malt Master's Edition and the 14 year old rich oak.
@richardbostan42867 жыл бұрын
Those aren't just rumours. Laphroaig 18 has officially been discontinued, and it has been announced by the distillery that Old Grand Dad 114 will be officially discontinued sometime during 2017.

No sir. Stipulations for bourbon are as follows. Must be 51% corn whiskey in the mash bill, aged in virgin charred oak barrels anywhere in the US.
@BobPapadopoulos6 жыл бұрын
That might be technically true, but it would be akin to making scotch in Arizona: You're going to catch shit. Virginia is about the only other place that can get away with it without much flak, as most original bourbon distillers were Virginians and Kentucky was itself part of Virginia when the craft gained popularity.

Wow, I'm completely surprised by your review! I found this whisky to be very disappointing (not that I had anything but low expectations). It has this stale sawdust note that follows into the taste and finish that's really off-putting. Its like someone has artificially aged this with those stupid wood whisky element sticks. Something about this just seems very wrong, like its trying to be something its not. Maybe it just me, but this does not flow with my palate.
@WhiskyInThe68 жыл бұрын
Interesting. Do you have your own bottle of this or did you try it at a tasting somewhere? I honestly enjoyed it. It was my first impression of the whiskey. Perhaps it changes with a few more tastes. To each their own I guess. Thanks for watching Jeremy. Cheers.

Have to agree with +Jeremy H on this one, there was a very unpleasant flat note to this that put me right off. The hose was decent, i liked the Rye. But the palate was just awful. I have a full of this so I'll definitely have to re-review it just to make sure. I was the 2nd person the /r/bourbon reddit page to review this, so not much in the way of comparisons to other people's reviews.
