Nice collection in the background. Great video.

[@denniswheeler4872]

Great story. I love those bottles also. I do enjoy your videos.

I didn't like regular Maker's Mark but Rare Breed is excellent. Elijah Craig Small Batch and KC9 are both good. Evan Williams and Rebel 100 are the two bourbons that got me hooked.

Dude, I had the exact same journey (minus the Weller). Such a great journey on bourbon almost at the same time. Great episode!

[@MagicMike007]

Solid list! Except for the JD. Will never let JD touch my lips, but that’s just me. To each his or her own. Cheers.

Started my journey later than you by quite a bit (only in the last two years) but all of those were also very early for me, minus the Weller - I've still yet to catch any Weller (thanks VABC!)

[@CiboloDave]

Solid progression list.

Thanks man!

“Still delicious” is holy fuck that’s spicy voice lol

[@Frankpagain]

Good bottles all, to call a favorite I'd have to say James Pepper is mine

[@averagejoeswhiskey]

Solid choice!

Thanks for some good recommendations. Currently enjoying Woodford Double Oaked. Very smooth.

Woodford Double Oaked is a great pour, enjoy!

Hey Joe! Great List! My first bottle was also Maker’s Mark, the game changer for me was Wild Turkey 101. Still love that bottle after trying numerous different bourbons over the years. Not my everyday drinker anymore. Don’t really have a favorite because there’s just so many great ones out there to choose from. Enjoying the channel! Keep up the great content!

[@averagejoeswhiskey]

I do love me some Wild Turkey 101 too! Best value since Elijah Craig dropped the age statement, and always a great option at a bar. Appreciate you watching!

“Some people”, is that your wife’s name, haha. My wife is enjoying some Makers 46. I thought it was a cool story.

I tried many times to get her on board but she hates it 😂
