Whisky Knowledge: My Bar 2017

[@bogdancristianenacheraducu]

Hello herr Horst . I do really apreciate your job, sharing with us all your knowledge and experiences in the magnific world of whiskey. If you ever travel to Madrid it would be a honour for me shake your hand in the whisky shop in the Terminal 4 Madrid Airport

"sometimes there is a red wine looking for me, or I'm looking for a red wine" lmao hahaha

[@rugbyjc240]

Happens every time...

[@whynottalklikeapirat]

Sometimes there is a red wine looking for me - but I will be looking for single malt ...

[@nhorsenglav8555]

thank

[@marco6703]

Mr. Luening I must thank you for the extremely useful program you are doing, and for the passion and wise you are conveying, not to mention the subtle sense of humour. Cheers!

[@pierremadani7281]

Horst, always a pleasure watching your videos !!!

[@StevoKpop]

I just started watching your channel a few days ago so this is perfect timing! Used your videos and your advice to pick out the Glenmorangie Quinta Ruban as my most recent purchase, which was an excellent choice. Thank you for the informative and relaxing videos!

[@visheshb7695]

Why people are not discovering your channel.. so good info..

[@jeffie8696]

Thank you for another great video. So far Glen Moray 12 year is my favorite, great price great taste. Please continue.

[@jimtaylor431]

Not a bad selection in the Luening bar! Very nice! :)

[@h.hemphill2314]

I appreciate it greatly when whisky reviewers share what they personally prefer and collect. It gives us a way to know what your standards are and how to compare them to our own taste. I like rum so I enjoy Edradour finished in rum casks. But that's me. Thanks sharing your bar, even if it is just video👍Danke

[@airconditionerking]

Best show.

[@thecrookedman3851]

You are very good to your friends!

[@artsempai]

10L of pure alcohol per year. If I've done the math correctly, that's roughly 475ml of whisky or 19 units of alco per week. It's higher than recommended intake which is 14 units per week

[@jessefagen7282]

1L = 1000ml. So 10L = 10,000 ml 10,000 / 52 = 192ml per week Hardly frat boy territory

[@jessefagen7282]

I just now realize you converted for 40% alcohoL. Drinking Scotch whilst doing math clearly makes a poor combination

[@montyhansen7726]

I would LOVE to hang out with Horst for 2 or 3 hours, sample his favorite whiskeys & absorb his vast knowledge on whiskey & electric drive!

[@Josh-fk1nn]

whoa whoa whoa, tell us more about this world record please! electric car driving?

[@mikerowsdower9896]

There's some articles on the internet about it if you google Horst. :)

[@johnberryconwayiii7071]

I have destroyed a bottle of laphroaig 10 year tonight, I started drinking it with you while you reviewed it. Cheers Sir

[@nikolapappbulatovic]

My bar 2018 please

[@samm1809]

1:00 So is that why the Islay whiskys sell younger varieties than Glenfiddich etc? Because the 8-year varieties are for peat heads?

[@TheWhiskyFamily]

The Glen Moray 15YO is an amazing dram! Value for money and tastes superb. Sláinte :-)

[@james_studio8065]

Great stuff!!!

[@nicojuarez8599]

I think you should make a German review with English subtitles. That would be interesting, Mr Luening. 👍

[@mekore]

i also think mixing old & young whisky is a great idea. There should be a new regulation to label that better

[@nobodyi9396]

🏋️ I enjoy 2 to 3 drinks per evening for more than 20 years now.

[@znawcamuzy9976]

My Bar: Glen Moray 12, Talisker 10, Glenfiddich 15, J&B Rare, Auchentoshan American Oak, JW Black Label, Dewars 12. I know its not so impressive, but I am beginner with whisky.

[@nakanoyuko]

Get the Lagavulin 16 you wont regret it

[@DJ369-Miami]

Alles was der richtige Alkoholiker ueber whiskey wissen muss :) Ich masse Spass. Sehr informativ!

[@nikolapappbulatovic]

the glen moray 15 is amazing for its prize

[@aaronsmith9173]

Horst

[@sglatitude]

Damn Macallan 18 you have there. Where’s Yamazaki 18? 😂

[@toddstevens6608]

what's up with whisky reviewers and world records?

[@theelderkine]

Todd Stevens - Ralfy?

[@feelgeorge]

There my small collection JW Green label 2016 1L , Old green label 1L unopened, Talisker distillery Edition, The Hahushu single malt, Ardbeg 10 Year, American honey whisky (really sweet) unopened. I finished, JW double black and Talisker ten years old

[@Tommouser]

If the younger whiskies oxidise faster than the older ones, so does that mean that the small amount of young whisky in the Macallan Ruby does oxidise faster than the older part and will change the complexity of the whisky? So it would mean that after the oxidisation of the younger whisky it could make the Ruby even better or with bad luck worse?

[@PikachuReesesPieces]

in my opinion it makes it a lot better

[@LondonGooner]

I had about 4 bottles of bakers i drank it but i couldnt take to it like scottish whiskey maybe as i like peat. I just dont rate american whiskey bakers was nice but just like razors.

[@duckyguy1147]

He seems to like sherry cask whiskies

[@robertowd5635]

10 liters of alcohol a year is average? ...damn. I'm at around 30 a year.

[@RichR65Ct]

That bottle of Black Bowmore looks pretty dark,what's the proof on that?Must be long aged.

[@birukkassa1344]

Congrats on your world record, it deserves to be celebrated by expensive scotch . Prost

[@spacyGG]

German version please. Make whisky.de great again :D

[@mikerowsdower9896]

That bowmore's color is like molasses!

[@the0to1smell86]

Yea buccanas do it doooo it dooooo it do it ...and Hennessey

[@TEXAS-SMITH]

YES! Hennessey!!!

[@lukesvideogameletsplays4416]

I try to limit my alcohol to three days a week. Usually whiskey occasionally beer or wine. I drink much beer becuase it's not o easy to drink. So im trying not to buy that very much 😂

[@NiklasMalmqvist]

2,5 liter a year?? Are you kidding with us? That's almost nothing at all. I drink about 1 liter every month, and I don't drink much at all, and I never get drunk. With 2,5 liter per year including other spirits, you hardly take one single dram a week :-/

[@lorionalbenhaupt7045]

2,5 liter "pure alcohol". A dram of 2cl does not have 2cl pure alcohol.

[@TEXAS-SMITH]

You're a CLOSET BOURBON DRINKER so don't fib like that Herr Horst!

[@allyw7405]

You’re always half full in my eyes

[@ghantakha5568]

I should make u my friend 🥃cheers

[@DieselTrucker2018]

You spelled Whiskey wrong! It has an E before he Y.

[@digitaldemocracyai-rob]

Back to school boy

[@ALE2163233]

BOURBON is my go to Whiskey! Americans say "Whiskey"! Excellent video bud. I like that Macallan 18. Great choice

[@davidgill5899]

Did anyone else hear that he doesn’t really drink much outside of his reviews? I really like his reviews, but I think to have more credibility you should be drinking more. I’ve also seen where he doesn’t finish some of his pours and mixes them into a bottle. Idk just weird.

[@lll-k4l2k]

Well He told in other video's that he does drink whisky at the evening off camera. But if he adds both those moments of drinking alcohol every week together with all tastings he does on camera. Like he explained, he will be consuming a high amount of alcohol in a year. And If u keep doing this for 35 years like him, I understand U want to slow down for health reasons

[@lll-k4l2k]

Ow and the Whisky pouring into a bottle is pretty common with whisky reviewers as they actually make this "Blend" out of all whiskies they try and from time to time they taste this blend they made.

[@kripalkotwani6224]

Pouring unfinished pours in one bottle is actually not weird, but to save the whiskies from deterioration due to oxidation, it's a common practice.

[@Quacklebush]

So what do your friends and family ask for in your bar??? And bourbon really doesn't have the best reputation? Personally I've always felt bourbon had one of the better reputations.. Even the high dollar Scotch colors and chill filters its whiskey and Bourbon doesn't no??

[@reptilianskin]

Quacklebush I have tried many great bourbons. I think he is referring to the personal preference of his family and friends. Some just prefer scotch to all other whisky. For me it's a mood thing. Sometimes I prefer the stronger Oak influence of bourbon and typically higher ABV, plus here in Ontario it's more affordable than most scotch. So the value for money opened the door to bourbon discovery for me. In Europe it's perhaps harder to get American bourbon. So scotch and Irish whiskey is what they are accustomed to and their natural preference

[@leafsrule1818]

First

[@AMRonin]

Oxidation, not Oxidization.
