    The b-roll with the kitty is all this video actually needs. The rest is just a bonus.

    How much in royalties is Cookie getting for those cameos? Adding a touch of class to the B role is priceless...

  • @CopyrightedUsername
    @CopyrightedUsername Před 9 měsíci +24

    1920 is my favorite bottle ever, stoked to see it ranked near the top

  • @ElectricR0MEO
    @ElectricR0MEO Před 9 měsíci +26

    It pains me…but Dan’s right. The inside of the banana peel is way different than the outside of the peel.

  • @juanbobo808
    @juanbobo808 Před 9 měsíci +11

    Some of the best B roll you guys have ever put out, well done. More cats wrapped around Birthday Bourbon

  • @mikecofojohn168
    @mikecofojohn168 Před 9 měsíci +19

    1920 should be in everyone’s shelf. It is by far the best available whiskey on the market.
    I HIGHLY recommend everyone make a double batch of 1915.
    Cheers to cookie.

    Biggest surprise to me is OF100 coming in dead last!! That’s a damn good bottle!😂

    • @IndyGuy65
      @IndyGuy65 Před 9 měsíci +6

      I am with you on that. Next to 1920, OF 100 proof is my favorite bottle.

    • @soggysteve
      @soggysteve Před 9 měsíci +2

      OF100 is my favorite every day drinker, I am drinking it right now.

    • @Colby_L
      @Colby_L Před 9 měsíci +5

      As someone who is not afraid of proof and wants to like orange label better…86 proof blue label is definitely better.

    • @Crateria
      @Crateria Před 9 měsíci +1

      I always thought OF100 was overrated compared to the rest and that OF86 had a much better less astringent palate than the OF100. Glad to see the 86 putting in work :)

  • @shanecowan9667
    @shanecowan9667 Před 8 měsíci +4

    Would’ve liked to have seen a single barrel barrel strength in there because that stuff is incredible

  • @jackjoshlin

    1920 is my choice personally.

  • @dadkicks

    Got my first single barrel at the distillery last week. Holy amazing. My first i have really loved from Brown Foreman

  • @jafo7091
    @jafo7091 Před 9 měsíci +1

    Fun to watch. Just picked up the 1897 bib & Orange bib, doing 50%bib theme for my 50th Bday in a few weeks with other bib bottles. Sounds like a good idea🎉

  • @David-SouthGA
    @David-SouthGA Před 9 měsíci +1

  • @Chumposaur
    @Chumposaur Před 9 měsíci

    Picked up my first bottle of 1910 ever based on your recommendation, and it's sensational. The whiskey guy at the store convinced me to pick some Wolcott as a daily drinker, so we shall see how that shapes up as well....

    So happy 1920 came in (tied for) 2nd. Don’t have enough OF to do and OF only blind, but 1920 (and 1910!) is so damn good

  • @billlowe9417
    @billlowe9417 Před 9 měsíci +1

    OF is my favorite brand. And 1910 is my far and away favorite. I also bought a bottle of Statesman and honestly ending up pouring it out as I hated it so bad and didn't want it taking up space on my shelf. 😷

  • @OldFashionedWays
    @OldFashionedWays Před 9 měsíci

    wow great fun lots to try blind. amazing job guys. I am not crazy about old forester King Ranch. But I do really enjoy Birthday 2022. But only birthday I have tried. cheers.

  • @michelem9341
    @michelem9341 Před 9 měsíci

    Great video. OF is the best. I would love to see if you guys had an older bottle of the orange label (thought it was red) that came in last and compare it to the newest one.

    Greta video. I wonder where this years Single Barrel would stack up.

  • @ryanmelvin-bn8fk
    @ryanmelvin-bn8fk Před 9 měsíci +3

    1920 is my favorite bourbon. Chocolate, cherries and caramel with some circus peanut residue in the scent. I'd drink it over anything. Watched this because I asked a guy at Old Forester what to try that isn't 58% (I drink half a bottle every night eek) and he recommended 1897 BIB and Statesman.

    • @BeThereAgainProductions
      @BeThereAgainProductions Před 9 měsíci

      I've had the 1920 and Statesman. Statesman lot of black leather, lot of banana.

  • @jacobstrupe2426
    @jacobstrupe2426 Před 3 měsíci

    1910 and 1920 tie is sooo accurate, really the only 2 OFs anyone needs

  • @jskypercussion
    @jskypercussion Před 26 dny

    Definitely the 1910 is my favorite, I had the birthday bourbon at the distillery, it is really good but I will never have a shot at getting my own bottle. Statesman is actually surprisingly good.

  • @kirklandeche937
    @kirklandeche937 Před 9 měsíci

    Y'all need to reveal Cookie Cat's score card for the tasting comparison to be complete! Great show! Cheers!

  • @kaseycarpenter73
    @kaseycarpenter73 Před 9 měsíci +1

    I was lock step with Sean on the old 1920 versus the new 1920 - i.e. not a fan when it was released, so much so I went and hunted down all the old-style necks I could find. I guess with a little "shelf-aging" they might be getting better? Time to revisit.

    • @BourbonJunkies

  • @gregmuir4001
    @gregmuir4001 Před 3 měsíci

    Old forresters 86! That’s my absolute favourite bottle ATM!! I’m completely new on my bourbon 🥃 journey I’ve had the usual suspects lol . IE buffalo trace, old forresters 86 proof! I’ve got a bottle of woodfords reserve the normal one I think you would call it? It’s a little harsh imho to be honest. But I still enjoy it. Old forresters on the other hand is amazing to sip! On ice 🧊 and it’s great for cocktails too I really like the cherry kinda birthday cake 🍰 taste along with? Dates or something else amazing along with the smell ohh it’s lovely! I’ve got some eagle rare and a bottle of that new ish belleit stuff . I’m just starting to build my collection like I said . Ps great video I enjoy it

  • @distlledbrewedreviewed
    @distlledbrewedreviewed Před 9 měsíci

    Thats tough. I've had flights that large, and my palate always gets to fried to judge correctly. When the lips get numb, it's over.

  • @markcalhoun8219
    @markcalhoun8219 Před 5 měsíci

    Can't comment on BB, KR or Statesman but everything else from OF is just solid, you'll have one you like better but I'd never be upset to find any of them in my glass. That said I do love 1870 and 1910 the most currently.

  • @unipanther0438
    @unipanther0438 Před 9 měsíci

    Old Forrester's line has been on my "to get" list for a while now, but they don't move very quickly where I'm at so I've been waiting. Not going to wait much longer.

    The old label BIB is actually really really good i preferred it over EHT small batch

  • @Azurelight605
    @Azurelight605 Před 9 měsíci +6

    As an OF fan would be interested how President's Choice or 150th Anniversary stack up to see if they are as overrated as the Birthday Bourbon compared to regular lineup. Also, it sounds like you guys need to try the "1915" blend of 1920 and 1910.

    • @Necron96
      @Necron96 Před 9 měsíci +1

      Bro... This isn't the place to show your appreciation for onlyfans. You're in the wrong place, and we already know Stormy Daniels is the president's choice. Smh

    @SlowHorsesses Před 9 měsíci

    If birthday bourbon didn’t come in first. With that insane secondary price tag, man o’ man.
    I think old forester starting doing a lottery for the in-store purchases of birthday bourbon. No more just walking in on the right day and scoring one
