This week we have an interesting one. We are still kicking ourselves in the ass for not pairing Kirkland BiB vs 1792 BiB but mistakes were made and we can only move forward. This week we have Heaven Hill a favorite to win it all up against Kirkland Bottled in Bond, a definite underdog in the bracket. Can Kirkland (aka 1792) upset the strong contender from Heaven Hill?
Whiskey Talk: Rob talks about his recent cruise and his experience in Miami and we go down a few other rabbit holes.

We have a special episode in store for you this week. Our patron, Kevin joins us for EH Taylor Small Batch vs Evan Williams Bottled in Bond. This is probably the biggest price gap between bottles, not necessarily at MSRP, but when looking at what most people can find the bottle for. Can Evan Williams BiB pull out the upset? What do you think?
Whiskey Talk: Will TikTok actually be cancelled? Listen in to hear our thoughts on that and all of the rabbit holes running through Rob's brain.

Whiskey Talk: I never thought that we would talk so much about reality TV but we finish up the Love is Blind Saga this episode. It has been fun but the topic finally ran it's course.

Bottled in Bond is usually a great choice, but is it a good choice under $20? Early Times Bottled in Bond comes in right under that for a liter bottle. Yes, you heard us right, under $20.
Whiskey: Early Times Bottled in Bond
Price: $20
Proof: 100
Age: 4 Year
Whiskey Talk: I never thought that we would talk so much about reality TV but this season of Love is Blind has been full of drama and cringeworthy discussion points.

Whiskey: Easy Rider Bourbon
Price: $27
Proof: 80
Age: 4 Year
Whiskey Talk: A true whiskey talk, we start with soup and hit other items like dad jokes, asbestos and montezuma's revenge (not the ride)....

What happens when Rob goes shopping for whiskeys for the episode and they put a non whiskey on the bourbon aisle? We review 2 bottles and make sure 1 is whiskey.... All jokes aside, we have 2 bottles for review and we hope we help you not make the same mistake that we did....

This week we have a special guest, Sergio. You likely have heard him on with us before, but he recommended this bottle and wanted to join us to review it. This High Rye Boubon has a nice palate and is solid across the board. The tricky part with Rabbit Hole is they tend to have a higher price tag than a lot of other distilleries. Is it worth it?
Whiskey: Rabbit Hole Heigold

Well, we learned something new this week. Bulleit has a single malt whiskey and we (being primarily bourbon and rye lovers) do our best to review this. It definitely has a unique flavor that is different from what is usually expected from Bulleit.
Whiskey: Bulleit Single Malt
Price: $60
Proof: 90
Age: Not Disclosed but aged in new American Oak barrles
Whiskey Talk: Did you know we are scientist? We didn't either. We discuss the states of matter and hibernation as non-experts...

It has been a while since we have reviewed a Penelope product. At one point, Penelope was one of the up and coming whiskey brands (they source, so not a distillery). Now, they are a fairly well known brand that can be fairly easily found throughout the US. The Architect is a bourbon aged with French oak staves which gives the whiskey unique flavor that does not drink the proof.
Whiskey: Penelope Architect
Price: $60
Proof: 104
Age: 4-5 years
Whiskey Talk: We discuss the "Challenges" (i.e. one chip challenge, sour challenges,....)

Well, if you follow any "Whiskey Influencers" on any social media platform, you likely have heard of the most recent whiskey from Buffalo Trace. Traveller Whiskey is a Buffalo Trace and Chris Stapleton collaboration that leads to an interesting whiskey. More suited for those newer into the whiskey scene, it produces a smooth sip favoring the sweeter side.
Whiskey: Traveller Whiskey
Price: $40
Proof: 90
Age: Thought to be at least 4 years.
Whiskey Talk: This episode was the epitome of what we like to call a whiskey talk. We start on one topic then head down several rabbit holes along the way.

What is up everyone? This episode finishes up our Under $20 January. We got lucky with these. They were all pretty good, at least relatively. Devo picked or final whiskey for this series and surprise surprise, it's a rye. Also, if you have followed along for a while, you probably would guess that Rob would not pick a Jack Daniels bottle. We hope you enjoy a glass with us (unless you are driving, then do not!!).
Whiskey: Jack Daniel's Rye
Price: $19.99
Proof: 90
Age: NA
Whiskey Talk: With the presidential candidates trying to get picked, they are coming up with some interesting plans/ideas. One of these is to increase the retirement age to 70.

For the 3rd part of under $20 bottles, we have Wild Turkey Bourbon, the first well known one of this segment. If you've followed us for a while, you likely know that we enjoy Wild Turkey 101, but surprisingly, none of us have every had Wild Turkey Bourbon. The big question is, is it still good?
Whiskey: Wild Turkey Bourbon
Price: $18
Proof: 81
Age: 5 Year

Jim Beam Black label is under $20? It sure is. Finally an under $20 bottle from a well known distillery. Jim Beam Black is Extra Aged at around 6 years giving a nice change to the white label that we all know so well.

Merry Christmas. We hope you and your families have/had a very happy holidays. Well, now to the whiskey. The third batch of Elijah Craig Barrel Proof made some waves this year. Not only did the proof raise some eyebrows, but the age as well. Coming in at 13 years and over 130 proof it is quite the pour.

Merry Christmas to you all. This was an exciting episode since this is probably the hardest to find bottles that we have reviewed. As many of you likely know, Weller, which comes out of the Buffalo Trace Distillery, is a very elusive bottle and if you are lucky enough to find one, it comes with a hefty price tag. Listen in to hear our thoughts and what we feel this bottle is worth.
Whiskey: Weller Full Proof
Price: MSRP around $50; Retail ranges from MSRP up to $400

This is an abnormal whiskey with a very unusual taste profile. Whistlepig has done some interesting collaborations which started with Big Papi and using maple bats in the aging process. However, this collaboration with the Alfa Romeo F1 team is quite different. They finished these bottles with Lychee and Oolong tea, but does it work?
Whiskey: WhistlePig PiggyBack Legends Series: Alfa Romeo FI Team Stake Barrel
Price: $50
Proof: 96.77
Age: Not Disclosed
Whiskey Talk: Apparently there is a Ninja Parade in Modesto California and no one has seen it. The ninjas have done their job so far. We found out mid episode that this was a story from the Onion, so who knows if it is real but well done by them if it isn't.

This week we review Wild Turkey 101 Rye. If you have been a listener for a while, you already know that Wild Turkey 101 Bourbon is one that we love as a mixer and is a good low cost sipper, but is the Rye just as good? Listen in to find out.

Whiskey Talk: This is an older story but a town in Indiana asked the citizens of their town for name recommendations for the new civic center. Harry Baal's Civic Center was recommended due to him being one of the most respected Mayors of the town. By the way, the name was originally pronounced as "Balls". You can guess how this episode goes....
