Welcome in to the Whiskey Basket!
My name is Mike, I’m an amateur disc golfer with a fondness for whiskeys, particularly bourbons.
This channel is just something I decided to do for fun, in between playing disc golf and working my normal day job as an industrial electrician.
Follow along as I explore local liquor establishments, showcasing their whiskey wares. Might even do a review from time to time, and try to tie in a bit of disc golf as well.
If you enjoy these videos, please like, subscribe, comment, make fun of me fumbling over words, call me out for buying or not buying certain bottles, etc.
I can’t make videos every single day, but will try my best to do so as often as possible!
Thanks for stopping by, and cheers!🥃

Bourbon Hunting on a Roadtrip

In this video, I do a bit of bourbon hunting while on a roadtrip to the Detroit area to visit my parents. We start in Toledo, Ohio, then hit a couple places in southeast Michigan, and metro Detroit, before heading back to KC via southwest Michigan, northern Indiana, and Columbia, Missouri.

Bourbon Hunting at a Big Box Grocery Store
I stay away from Boogietown in the KC area. I stay with my people down south. ✌🏼🇺🇸
Knob Creek 12 for $75? Cmon now!!!!
Now I want to see how it flies
Stale Cracker reference got me subbed bro. When my interests overlap I get HYPE
Same, with missing the videos. Hope everything thing is good
Miss the videos!!
Don’t waste your time. ✌🏼🇺🇸
They have a sister location in independence
Worked at the store that used to be there for about 6 years it was very weird visiting it again , I’m a sucker for the high age statement Canadian club wish I could afford it
I go to Gomers South since it is open late after my shift. If you can go somewhere else. I would recommend that you go somewhere else. It used to be that Gomer employees knew their product and seemed to enjoy their jobs. Over time this store has deteriorated If you ask these guys questions they do not know their products or even their inventory. I asked about east European and they did not know where or what that was. They pointed out they had wine from France. The floors are filthy and product that is not moving is dusty as a tomb. The back room that perpetually advertises a wine sale with dusty stained signs is also filled with chaotically scattered cases of stored extra products blocking the aisles. Old tattered display cases used to seem quaint, even charming As the store has deteriorated they now seem just cheap and trashy. One of the most aggravating things is that literally half the items are unpriced. You are expected to bring each item to the front so they can price it and then they wait expectantly for you to automatically buy it. I have had to tell them 3x that no, I just wanted the price and it is too high. They have all kinds of products scattered around on the register counter that are unpriced. Even cases of brands that have just come in are unpriced. They have a rickety shelf filled with one off items or several of the same. All are unpriced . It looks like a sale self. No these are discontinued items, but no price break. To price them you have to bring them to the register. I am sometimes asked if I found what I wanted. I have many times complained about the lack of pricing and they have never seen it as being an issue. I tell them I am so tired of it that if there is no price I now stop to consider buying the item. They have no reaction. I remember a once dynamic, proud local chain called Ber biglia also go down hill like this, finally going out of business. This Gomers seems to be following such a parallel path. If there was another late night store in the area, I would go there
i've never seen pot still reserve going for that high but $54.99 is a great price on willett 4 year rye.
Haven’t seen any new videos lately. Hope all is well. I enjoy your whiskey hunts.
Wanna come by my store and do a quick video? We call it the treasure hunt of bourbons, because there all mixed in! Family owned for 30 years! In Overland PArk KS Reply
What store is this?

If you wanna see a crazy selection of highly allocated stuff go to LP mart at 880 W 141st Terrace, Kansas City, MO 64145. It's very close to the Lukas near Martin City. All the Pappy's, a full rainbow of Weller's, etc. In a gas station of all places.
Needs to slow down and show prices
I would of grabbed that 1.75 Weller for $49.99.
Just picked up a weller for $23 here in Florida.
I live here. Great selection, horribly inflated prices. They think they're a secondary instead of a retailer. I would love to buy from them but I'm not paying a 30% premium.
Walk out if the prices aren’t allowed to be show. Alright
Hey man noticed you haven’t done any videos for a while….. hope everything is going good for you. Can’t wait for the next local hunt.
After some experimenting i figured out if you leave the disc on for 2 minutes then take it off it creates a very nice and bag able dome
What’s the proof on that bad boi
131.1
What's the good Bernheim batch?
I hear it's the A batch. I have the B and it's just okay. I probably won't buy another Bernheim, just not my thing.
I’m going to be going thru KC area and was wondering what store(s) you would recommend if a person was looking for Russell’s Reserve 13 year or any difficult to find bourbon. Thanks!
Man, I'd have no idea where to find a RR13 here. Crown Liquor at I-70/7hwy in Blue Springs has a bunch of tater bottles but they want an arm and a leg for everything. I have honestly never seen a RR13 here in KC.
@@WhiskeyBasket thank you!
Imagine selling a product and being so embarrassed of the price you're charging, you don't want anyone to know 😂
Russell 13 in New Jersey is 350! Good snag
Dang that's a hot gas station!
I hate that! They're so findable now. They should never be over $100.
What this does to the grip of star plastic? A really tacky feeling would be great but my intuition says that it must be hardening thus making it more slick
Those combos are the most laughable I've seen! 😂
I tried this twice with no luck. I am thinking maybe it’s because I didn’t use a thing metal bowl to boil the water. I used a metal sauce pan and I don’t think the water is getting to a high enough rapid boil. I did place the pan and disc in the fridge for the cold temp. Outside isn’t sold cold here in So Cal hahaha
OWA is definitely worth the pickup. I get over on the East Side every once in a while. I do hunts quite a bit on the west side
Hello I am a follower and supporter I was wondering if you can help locate a Macallan Estate I will pay you however you prefer
lol. I mean. Why!
Awesome
How much is liquor tax your way?
I don't know the rates, if any, that would be charged to distillers or distributors and factored into the sale price. As far as we, the customers are concerned, I'm pretty sure we just pay the normal sales tax on it, just like any other item.
Chicago Binny's have Old Tub on sale $15 as some stores are not reordering and clearing out.
6:38 I don't see it there but Holladay Soft Red Wheat Rickhouse Proof is an absolute buy! Do NOT skip that one if you see it on the shelf, I grabbed one over the weekend and its an incredible pour! Sounds like you know that!
Oh yeah, I bought both Rickhouse Proofs from the distillery, not long after they came out. Absolute deliciousness!🥃👍
@@WhiskeyBasket The craziest part was after twisting the cap off (yeah, that's new), poured into a fresh Glen and there was little to nothing on the nose and I knew I made a mistake, then I tasted it and WOW...instant heat, drying of the palate, and drops a flavor bomb!
Smoke Wagon uncut/unfiltered $49.
Great video! I tried something similar, filling a disc with boiling water, then setting a weighted bowl on top to get the effect. Got mega dome, but it went away even after I cooled it in the fridge. Do you find that the discs hold their dome well with this method?
No doubt about it! Pretty sure this stretches the flight plate a bit, so it's not going back to normal.
Can you puddle top Rollo
That would just depend on the disc being able to form a seal against the bowl. As long as you can get a seal to form, it wouldn't matter which kind of bowl or disc you use, or whether the disc is upside down or right side up.
This a dumb question by why do we want a disc to be that domey? Is it flippier for slow arms or something?
It will be flippier, but the big dome just gives it an insane amount of glide. So while it probably doesn't have the control and predictability of a normal disc, it can fly pretty far if you get ahold of it at the correct angle. Just playing around with it, I've also found it's good for short, straight throws, kind of like a midrange.
Crazy to see the markup on some of this. Sazarac in Nebraska is like $27 and it's $70 at that store.
Enjoying your videos but they’re making me nauseous lol
Drink more whiskey, that always helps.🤣
I also got taken by the distiller for 134. Can’t believe it.
Yeah I was thinking they'd have prices slightly inflated in their gift shop, but not that much!
That's some mighty fine super dome there
You lost all credibility as soon as you held up a bottle of Early Times.
Shit, I'm surprised I even had any credibility in the first place! Thanks for watching!🤣
A stale cracker reference from the disc cheat code guy? This made my day.
