    What kills me is that KC 12 is 70 bucks at retail here in VA but we're paying 96 for Booker's aged at 6 and a half years . Excellent skirmish Matt. Cheers!

      Thing that Is funny is the store picks at 14 are cheaper than the 15. And typically better. EDIT"" Haven't tried my 15 yet. Dont own a pick. Wish you did.

    • @BigJawnMize
      @BigJawnMize Před 2 lety +2

      The other crazy thing is that Beam has such a strong relationship with the grocery chains that you can find KC 12 and 15 at a JewelOsco but not at my major local liquor retailer. KC 12 was under $60 in the Chicago area last fall when I bought a bottle.

    • @wesleyk7491
      @wesleyk7491 Před 2 lety

      $96 is expensive considering its $80 at most places, but I wonder what the cost loss of bottling Bookers at 25-30+ proof higher vs the tax on letting the bourbon age for 5 more years

    • @Nicky68Y
      @Nicky68Y Před rokem

      Bookers had made a decision I believe about 4 years ago, made the papers, that they felt they were underpriced and could get more so they did. No change in anything, costs, just decided to almost double the price depending on where you buy it. In Virginia......sad. $90+ easy

  • @paul_romero_
    @paul_romero_ Před rokem +1

    I had KC 12 a couple of years back but my experience with it was ruined! Our town was evacuated, due to a wildfire and I opened the 12 year, while I was sitting in a hotel room in Sacramento, anxiously waiting for any type of news on our town.
    Sadly, we lost our town and along with it, my home and all of my belongings. Finished the bottle within the few weeks that I was in that hotel. Can’t say I ever took the time to actually enjoy it like I should have. Haven’t come across another bottle, ever since!
    However, I did just pick up a bottle of the 15 year!
    140 dollars, here where I live. 😬

  • @OttoBoy
    @OttoBoy Před 2 lety +4

    KC15 is highly sought after and allocated - about $105-$130 in L.A. I think the age statement is driving the demand with its flavor profile being secondary. KC12 is one of my favorites. It is a beautiful dram to sit with. KC12 hit a lot of “Best of” lists after which supplies dried up until about middle of last year - boat loads everywhere. Even Costco had it at $54 with no limit. Let’s hope Jim Beam keeps this in KC’s lineup for good.

  • @80Demitri
    @80Demitri Před 2 lety +1

    Like I stated in a reply in this thread, I have both bottles and they are both half full (about 2 months now) and the 15 opens up better than the 12. The 15 is sweeter and more balanced while the 12 year gets more spicy and oaky and loses it sweetness. I figured it would be the other way around but that is my experience. It's all personal preference but I will pay 100 for the 15 vs 70 for the 12 any day of the week.

    I see you upped your science game by labeling the glasses 12 and 15 instead of A and B. Also, empty Knob Creek glasses smell the best. Sometimes, I'll nose a glass for 20 minutes before getting a 2nd pour.

    Do you have the cask strength KC 12? Would be interested to see how that stacks up to the 100 proof. If you don’t, maybe I’ll make a trip to the post office

    I got a sample bottle of the 15 that I'll have to skirmish against my bottle of 12 and see if I feel the same. And I like your ex'es better than mine. I have an ex that was preetttyyy bitter with me and I never slept with her mom. Although I do recall her mom being attractive and probably would have given the opportunity.
