Are these 5 Bourbons worth the TIME and MONEY?

Great channel! I just got a call from an ABC store in my state, they pulled my name this morning and I'm going to get my E.H. Taylor Small Batch now 🙂

Haha when the wife is gone ,we should do the most expensive lol

Love watching your take on all the allocated bourbons!

I love your videos, Kurt, and my home bar is definitely getting more interesting because of you! I can't help staring at the beautiful bottle collection behind you. I think it would be very cool if you did a video featuring some of the "neglected" bottles that have maybe made their way toward the back of your shelf for reasons good or bad. I know I'm guilty of doing that, and at times I rediscover gems I forgot about and fall back in love with some old favorites. Keep up the great content!

Your videos are so wholesome! Please keep the videos coming they’re awesome

As someone who works as the whiskey conessieur in our liquor store in Illinois, I appreciate your channel. Thank you for everything you are doing to open the world to stuff outside of allocated whiskey.

Thank you for introducing some samples of allocated Bourbons. I have often wondered about the category and what it meant. I also really like your presentations, especially the five (5) bottles. It helps me to know what’s coming, and I can anticipate the next bottle while you’re talking about the current one.

Great video: brings back SO MUCH memories: i was lucky enough to start sipping bourbon in 2005, then get a small collection of BTAC in 2008-2012 before the madness starts. Now, i take my time to alternate drinking these BTAC with many other bottles more readily available : EZra 7 cask strength, Weller 107, Bulleit Cask Strength, Booker, ...

Really enjoyed this video. I will definitely keep my eyes peeled in hopes of finding one of them. Thanks again for putting out this info.

This guy is good. Very good teacher. Nice and bright atmospheric bar! Thank you!

Some much honesty here. Much appreciated.

I know this is a year old video. But, I was able to pu two bottles of Elmer T Lee today at our local liquor store for $59 a piece. Never thought I’d see one bottle! Just so darn excited! Merry Christmas!

Thanks for sharing!

Elmer T. Lee is a great bottle for retail prices, and I agree with a $75 maximum price. Weller 12 has a special place in my heart - it was my granddad's favorite, and he introduced it to me. I would happily pay $80 for it, but not a dime more. I had a bottle of the 2019 Old Fitzgerald BiB and paid $140 (retail then), and would be hard pressed to buy it again. It was a great pour, but do not see it as being 2 to 3x times better than others. I've never found the Stagg Jr. or George T. Stagg locally, so I have nothing to offer there. I did overpay for a William LaRue Weller in 2018 ($300), and would consider buying it again at that price.

I do appreciate you not using foul language. Thank you. You’re a joy to watch.

Once more amazing video i am kind of new to this whole whiskey experience but i would say that I enjoy the experience very much and I do learn a lot with your videos I enjoy them and learn from them Thank you very much🎉

Subscribed. I like this guy!

This video is why i subscribed I never subscribed this fast to any channel before you seem cool and down to earth I have 3 of the five

Thanks for the weller advice. My local store here in the south of france has a very limited selection American whiskey but they did have a few bottles of this. at 45€ each it turned out to be a steal.

Great to see a bottle of Old Fitzgerald again. I haven't seen it since I bought a bottle in Edinburgh, Scotland in October 2005. Mind you, my bottle did not reach your bottle's price level, he, he. It was a very pleasant price.
