Bourbon Real Talk

We all know that Wes LOVES Knob Creek. And for good reason. There is a lot to love about this brand. Everything from their 9 year to their single barrel offerings are incredible. Jim Beam Distillery is one of only a few that knows how to do higher aged bourbon well. But which bottle reigns supreme? Which bottle would we crown the "King of Knob Creek"? In this episode we rank the Knob Creek 9, 12, 15, and 18 in a blind taste test. The results may surprise you...#bourbonrealtalk #bourbonrealtalkcommunity #bourbon #whiskey #blindtastetest #knobcreek #jimbeam #bourbonranking #tastingbourbon #whiskeytips #broubontips #howtodrinkwhiskey #howtodrinkbourbon #whiskeybeginner #allocatedwhiskey #allocatedbourbon #bestwhiskey #whiskeydrinks #whiskeytasting #bourbonhunting #whiskeyhunting #whiskeycollection #whiskeycommunity #whiskeylife #bourbonlife #bourbontrail #whiskeytubeOur Sponsors:* Check out Factor: http://factor75.comAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

The other day I was at an event and sipping whiskey. Toward the end of the evening and after a few pours I didn't feel safe to drive home so I called for an Uber. Once home, I got out my breathalyzer to see if I was indeed past the legal limit. Turns out I wasn't. So this got me thinking, how many drinks would I need to have to reach a blood alcohol level of .08? I asked Lindsey if she wanted to get drunk with me for science and she said sure, as long as it was on our 25th wedding anniversary. So, here we are....#bourbonrealtalk #bourbonrealtalkcommunity #bourbon #whiskey #gettingdrunk #bac #breathalyzer #whiskeytips #broubontips #howtodrinkwhiskey #howtodrinkbourbon #whiskeybeginner #allocatedwhiskey #allocatedbourbon #bestwhiskey #whiskeydrinks #whiskeytasting #bourbonhunting #whiskeyhunting #whiskeycollection #whiskeycommunity #whiskeylife #bourbonlife #bourbontrail #whiskeytubeOur Sponsors:* Check out Factor: http://factor75.comAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Welcome to PART 2! We hate to use the word "regret". We really do. Someone poured their blood, sweat, and tears in crafting the whiskey found in the bottle. Not mention, they've spent a ton of cash. BUT, there are some bottles that didnt quite hit our palates the right way, or the value and price ratio didn't quite add up. Here are 10 of those bottles.#bourbonrealtalk #bourbonrealtalkcommunity #bourbon #whiskey #regrets #top10list #top10 #buffalotrace #distillery #whiskeydrinks #bourbonhunting #whiskeyhunting #whiskeycollection #whiskeytips #whiskeycommunity #whiskeylife #bourbonlife #pappyvanwinkle #bourbontrail #whiskeytube #hypedwhiskeyOur Sponsors:* Check out Factor: http://factor75.comAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

There's a new king in Lynchburg Tennessee! Old No. 7 might be the most well known label of the Jack Daniel's lineup, but it is not the king. We love the Jack Daniel's single barrels, but...they aren't the king. There is a new product at Jack Daniel's that takes the crown, at least according their Head Distiller. And we couldn't agree more. 🟧 PATREON :: Exclusive content, barrel picks, hangouts, and more - https://bit.ly/3IrsIX6🟦 BOURBON REAL TALK COMMUNITY - private facebook group - https://bit.ly/3XQAvlT⬜️ JT MELECK - https://bourbonoutfitter.com/collecti...🟩 The Prideful Goat - https://www.pridefulgoat.com#bourbonrealtalk #bourbonrealtalkcommunity #bourbon #whiskey #jackdaniels #lynchburg #bestwhiskey #coyhill #distillery #whiskeydrinks #bourbonhunting #whiskeyhunting #whiskeycollection #whiskeytips #whiskeycommunity #whiskeylife #bourbonlife #bourbontrail #whiskeytube #buffalotraceOur Sponsors:* Check out Factor: http://factor75.comAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

The Ohio Division of Liquor Control says the 26% of worldwide alcohol consumption is illicit and 25% of that consumption is counterfeit. They say that those products cause blindness and even death. This is the argument and "statistics" used to keep consumers from being to order alcohol from their favorite distilleries and have it shipped to their home. This is dumb.
