I got one for 129.99 i was stoked. Im gonna trade it off for something i actually want.
That’s an awesome steal!
Barrell New Years are my favorites.
I haven’t tried those yet. What year is your favorite?
Either 2024 or 2023. You can still find 2024 for a reasonable price.
Absolutely!
Barrel is definitely good, I have a couple bottles of the foundation and had a pour of the seagrass 🥃🥃🥃
Man the Seagrass is my thing!! I’m loving the rum influence.
Bro if you like Barrel, you need to find an 035, it was voted one of the top bourbons of the year
What’s 035? Who makes it?
@@The_Unbottled it’s a barrel craft spirits product, just batch 035
Ahhhh gotcha.
Dropped by to show fellow bourbon hunters some love . Great video 💯
I appreciate the support!! I’ve been tuning into your content as well. Great hunts! 🥃
@@The_Unbottled thanks . we all have to stick together . cheers. 💯
The food looks great
Man the chef put on a show!
@@The_Unbottled awesome .. got me hungry
Seagrass, Vantage, and Dovetail are all quality
Seagrass is my favorite out of the line up
I hear that the barrel foundation is really nice. I would love to pick one up at 50ish dollars.
It’s worth the price! I’m a huge fan of Barrel’s line up now. Give it a try.
Was nice seeing you at the event, Anthony! My fav was the imbibe store pick
You too! It was great shutting the venue down with you guys haha
Great video I gotta try some barrel bourbon
It’s worth the try!
Absolutely. I’ve got a 14 year old 91.5 proof store pick that’s fantastic. Well …….. I lied I have two since I went back and got a backup😂😂,
You’re smart! If that store pick was under $100 it’s a heck of a steal
@@The_Unbottled $90 I believe.
Barrel Vantage is my top pick from them!
That’s not bad at all. Seagrass was my favorite
Good bottles, but high prices. I got an Elmer T Lee 3 weeks ago for $48.99, and an Eagle Rare for $45. 🥃
Those are great prices! Sometimes you have to get lucky but I’m not too mad about the prices personally because I’ve seen them far worse.
Glad to see this video pop up! I live right across the mountain and didn't even know this place existed honestly. Will definitely have to stop by there.
It’s definitely worth the drive. Great staff and amazing selection! 🥃
Man I hope I come across that bottle
Man I do too 😅
@The_Unbottled lol good luck
That JD toasted rye sounds good!
It actually really is!
@@The_Unbottled hopefully I can find one here in northeast TN🤞
Nice job my man!!!
Yoooooo I appreciate it! Huge fan thank you for the support 🥃
Bro. I am on my 3rd bottle of that Bardstown, Foursquare Collaboration. I love it. But I am a huge fan of Foursquare rum. The only problem is most areas overprice it.
Man it didn’t have a price so I figured it’d be astronomically higher than I wanted to pay really.
We got this one for MSRP and it's pretty damn solid. We would never pick it up for the secondary price. Really not worth it.
Man that’s a hell of a steal! If I can find it for secondary I’d do the same.
Thank you for taking the time to make this and share with us strangers! I highly recommend you go back and grab one (or two if you want to share) of the Jack Distillery series!
Thank you for taking the time to watch and engage with my content. I have a couple of the distillery series releases and some I like WAY more than others. Which is your favorite so far?
When you say worth the price, you mean? What did you actually pay for it, and what should we pay for tops
When I say worth the price I mean slightly over MSRP not full secondary. I’d say for me personally I’d pay up to $150 for this specific bottle.
For me personally anything in that yellow tube is worth hunting 😂if the price is right of course. EHT is the good stuff!
You’re not lying. They have a consistent solid product on their hands and the prices aren’t outrageous compared to other releases like Kentucky owl.
@@The_Unbottled $59+ tax for my last bottle of small batch. Worth every penny.
That’s a steal I see small batch go for almost $100 in my market
Any notes that stand out most to you? Love your reviews bro. Met you at Imbibe in Chatt for Barrell Bourbon tasting. Side note: on headphones your voice only comes in on the right. Hopefully it's just on my end but just thought you should know. You're awesome man.
Man I appreciate that feedback and will take a look at the audio. The biggest thing was how mellow yet intense the flavor profile is despite the high rye content. I expected the pour to have a much bigger bite on initial taste.
Flew round the by a few rare characters
I have to grab a couple more rare characters! I know I passed on them this trip but I’ll grab some in the future
Should have got the jack Daniels toast distillery Bottle.
I already had it so I was trying to find something that was different. Thank you for the support 🥃
Got a bottle of Marshmallow Delight store pick in Va from Maker’s. Good stuff.
Yessir! Everyone I gave a pour to has loved it so I think I did a great job haha
Bernheim barrel proof is good 👍 great walkthrough
Thank you! I have a couple of the barrel proofs but never tried their 7yr small batch. I need to give it a a try to form my own opinion
The 92 proof Bernheim is nasty! One of the worst bottles I have ever bought. It's had two pours out of it and I don't plan to ever drink the rest.
What don’t you like about it? Is it too light, mineral forward, bad after taste?
(Memphis local) Make sure you don’t miss out on those blue note uncut unfiltered store picks. The one I got from Busters East was out of this world. Good hunting !
I love Blue Note Uncut Unfiltered releases! They have continued to get better and better. I’m a Memphis Native so I love seeing how far blue note has come!
You passed over those rare characters?
Yea I know I like rare characters personally but just didn’t pull the trigger this hunt
Always love seeing Lahey crash on bourbon hunting videos. Great job. Bourbon has gotten more expensive so even though I have a bunch of 50-70 bottles I’m searching and buying sleeper budget bottles and stocking up on them.
I appreciate the support!!
What did I miss out on?
If you like Smoke Wagon, pay attention to any white labels: they are special selections. I've heard good things about the Blender's Select Rye.
Basically my back yard bro. Grew up an hour from Memphis so that's pretty much home. Some amazing stores there.
That’s my hometown! It’s crazy coming back and seeing the selection I had and didn’t appreciate until I moved 😅
@@The_Unbottled yeah I've always done well there. Plus I get to stop at Gus's World Famous Fried Chicken 😂 it's a win win!!!
Oh yea! Gus’s is always a great choice
@@The_Unbottled it's a must stop every time I'm in town. I'm about an hour and a half away now so don't get over much as I used to. But I never miss out on Gus's.
You passed on the bardstown?! Rip lol
Yea, I wasn’t too sure about it and honestly haven’t tried many of their collaborations. I’m open to grabbing it if I find it again.
You missed those Dark Arts bottles at 1:21. The red label and black label bottles are great. I got one of their Blue Note store picks. I was in that area Saturday. Just down the road at Caesar's Wine and Liquor.🥃
Caesar’s is 🔥 too. Plenty of great stores all around Memphis. I should be back in town soon.
I don’t know much about Dark Arts tbh
Those Buffalo Trace prices in comparision to my area 🤯.
Memphis is a honey hole brother. I grew up an hour from there awesome availability
Yea there’s Buffalo Trace everywhere in Memphis. I didn’t know it was allocated until I moved away 😅
We never pass on the single barrel Blue Note! I have a bottle of Rio for you to review as well as that Jack Tennessee Tasters release.
Haha man they always have a Blue Note! I’ll grab one next time I’m in town. Well let’s set it up!!
@@The_Unbottled just picked up a Redwood Empire Screaming Titan locally.
Got a backup bottle of the SRW Rickhouse last week. Bourbon of the year to me.
Really!? That’s a big claim! I’ll have to give it a try.
That OutKast shirt is pretty sick brother 👍
I appreciate it man! One of the best groups ever
People shilling finishing kits? No way they will ever call an experiment a failure. One problem with a channel like this... you are too obvious about selling.
I’m not selling anything 🤣 I’m just documenting my personal experiment/results and taking requests for the next batch fee. Lower your guard man. everything isn’t a sales pitch, some people just document and share their personal adventures and experiences. Check out the rest of my content and let me know what else I’m selling 🥃
Number 1 with the Weller SR bs seems like a douche. We can't steal your bottle behind you duh.
🤣🤣 he’s a good guy just giving me a hard time! Thank you for the support 🥃
That’s awesome! Great video👏🏼
Thank you!
Great video! 13th Colony Rye would be my choice. I'm going to have to try this. Getting ready to order me one & one for my SiL. Cheers
Hmmm that’d be interesting! I’ll definitely look for a rye and consider adding it to the barrel. 🥃
Wild Turkey Kentucky Spirit
I’ll definitely add it to the poll list!
Maybe pour something double oakes in there?
Hmm like a woodford double oak?
Say what now?! I forgot you did this, im so glad i got to see the results. Ive been sitting on a Heretige Distilling Co's Elk Rider bourbon finished in vanilla extract barrels and looks like i need to crack that open. Cheers big dog!
Haha yessir it’s been sitting in the vault! It was a great experiment and I LOVE the final product. 🥃
So you guys had this mini barrel aging for about 7 months?
7 weeks
OF 1915
Haha that might be a winner!
Wild Turkey Kentucky Spirit
Uh oh that’s a repeat request!!! I’m not opposed to it at all
