I've wondered if a better whiskey makes much of a difference in a cocktail and thankfully you did it for me. Thank you for saving me the expense of trying this myself. And you chose two of my favorites, Old Fashion and Sentimental Gentleman. Great video. Btw, anyone else notice in these last two whiskey videos that Jeremy seems to get a little tipsy but his wife handles the drinks just fine? Hmm....

Best timed “that’s what she said” maybe, ever! Well done!

Great video as always. When it comes to cocktails my rule is: "don't break the bank, but use something that holds up to the flavors." So finding that happy medium is important. #gimmieaflask #savethestagg

My heart hurt when u poured that 38 year scotch into a cocktail. Thanks brother for all u do! #gimmieaflask #savethestagg

I love some OGD, both the 114 and Bonded! Great budget pour, for sure!!

what a fun time watching this video. I agree, no high dollar juice in a simple cocktail

I love when you guys do these comparison videos, especially “ Big All”. You guys are a professional couple in the beginning, by the end, you guys are LOUD, GIGGLY AND CURSING. SHIT IF FUNNY AS HELL! 😂😂😂😂

My heart broke a little there when I saw that Scotch in a mixer. But all is fair in love and content creation. Thanks Jeremy for taking one for the channel!

Ginger Ale replacement = Polar ginger lime mule seltzer with your whiskey of choice and lime… game over 💪🏻

My first time watching this channel. This is a delightful couple! And a solid, honest discourse on whiskey.

Sir, you shoud definitely bring your Mrs. more to the show. Such a pleasant surprise to see you both sharing thoughts and ideas. Greetings from Brazil.

Thanks for taking one for the team, that 101 is my goto for bourbon cocktails. Love the turkey. #Givemeaflask #savethestagg

my favorite cheap Bourbon to blast in a cocktail is Four Roses. Its always 3 rows deep, in every liquor store, and around $20ish bucks!

Wow!!!! You guys are the best!!!! I came home tonight after watching the video earlier and made me a Ginger Ale Whiskey with Wild Turkey rare breed Rye whiskey that rocked me out of my shoes….Loved it. Ended up having 3 more and my night was fulfilled…. Thank you guys…. Jeremy Love the videos, I’m learning so much watching!!!!

Y'all killing it, If this was a podcast I'd listen for hours

NM, I wrote this prematurely before the video wrapped. Love the other channel

I like the Stagg Jr as an old fashioned it is great!!! Because the high proof holds up ..

Nothing like a good drink and a cigar !!!!👍🏻

Great to know what to mix and what not to mix.

Man that Gentleman is Pricey! $64 just in scotch per glass. You definitely took it for the team.

I actually checked out that coffea brand, very nice. Keep on keepin on...

OGD BinB is one of my favorites as a go to for any cocktail.

Definitely want to try some of these cocktails.

Love a good Old Fashion. Great video as always with Big Al.

at last Whisky, i love Old Fashioned and for me 101 it's delicious. Great video 👍

I cried seeing you mix an $800 bottle of scotch 😢. Thanks for taking one for the team! #gimmeaflask #savethestagg

Drambuie is really sweet, I have found the sharper elements found in cheaper blended scotch like Dewer's White Label helped to bring balance to a Rusty Nail.

Nice. I love a rusty nail.

I've gradually warmed up to using pricier stuff in cocktails because, when they're good and justify their price, they usually translate to that much better of a cocktails. It's like when you're throwing a recipe together; sometimes it's only as good as the ingredients you put together (I say sometimes becomes not everyone will enjoy or appreciate it). Case in point: ECBP in an Old Fashioned. Shit's a game changer.

Great vidya. Y’all killed it. Thanks for taking one for the team.

I proof up my Eagle Rare with a little Stagg Jr on occasion in a home blend.

Years ago I made up a cocktail called “What a pear!” Using Stagg Jr, unfiltered apple juice, pear liqueur, some bitters, and pear slices! I remember it being quite good. Just haven’t had the chance to get Stagg Jr again to make it. Haha

$800/750ml = $1.07ml. 1 ounce = 29.57ml so roughly $120 for the last cocktail for the 4 ounces. Thanks for testing it out, always interested to see comparisons between expensive and budget in cocktails. My frugal soul would hurt, too, lol. Also it's nice to sip in order to appreciate the time and effort for the more expensive craft items and the nuances that come with it..

Feel your pain mixing some of those! 😂 Thanks for taking that for the team! #givemeaflask #savethestagg

Stagg Jr is possibly the best bourbon I’ve ever had the pleasure of trying. Thanks for taking one (few) for the team! #savethestagg

Awesomeness!! Always a pleasure.. Monkey shoulder rocks…. As a budget mixer scotch… Cheers

You deserve a thumbs up for making that sentimental gentleman 👍🏽

I really enjoy the relationship you guys have

While I occasionally enjoy an Old Fashioned, my wife and I love a good Whiskey Sour. Our budget whiskey is Evan Williams Bottled in Bond.

Love how yall started with my favorite cocktail. Drink almost exclusively old fashioned when i get a cocktail #give me a flask #save the stag

Love your videos! Love you and the wife together! Thanks so much. You made my night.

I really can't believe you used stagg jr. In a mixed drink , but it was awesome to see , really enjoy your content.

I've had expensive whiskeys and Wild Turkey 101 is still my favorite.

Using scotch from an $800 bottle in a cocktail is like putting Pirelli's on a Prius.

Honestly, there is no one, not a single human, capable of delivering B-Roll like Jeremy

Love the channel! Keep up the great work

Appreciate your sacrifice of your top of the top shelf supply! As always, great video!

Lol. My wife made spiked apple cider with my blue run....I lost my mind!

When I was able to get Stagg Jr batch 15 and ECBP C919 for $60... my wife insisted on whiskey sours with them 😂

Guys, this was awesome. Thank you

Love when big Al stops by for some whiskey videos. #Gimmeaflask #savethestag

i normally use bottles i dont enjoy neat for mixers just to kill them but i have made some killer ranch waters with some high end tequila.

I love the cocktail content Jeremy

Great Video. I have to wonder what the result would have been had you used rare bread vs stagg. Still would have been budget vs expensive but the proof would have been closer.

Hey, that was fun Watching!

FANTASTIC VIDEO!!! Bottom line is if i'm mixing for special occasions and want to make guests feel special then I'm pouring EH all day! But i'f I'm focussing on making a well balanced cocktail then Old Grand-dad is the standard bourbon of choice. I am a HUGE fan of Old Grand-dad 100 proof for cocktails! with a VERY high rye (27%) content in the mashbill it holds up great to the sugars and bitters.

Another great video brother!! Welcome back Big Al!! Always a pleasure seeing you too!! #GIMMEAFLASK #SAVETHESTAGG

Really cool video! What a relief to know you don’t need the good stuff to make a good cocktail. I wept when you used the $800 scotch. 😂 Thank you for your sacrifice, Jeremy.

I entered into the whiskey world because of you man! Great video 👏

Really enjoying yall's videos!

Just received my first bottle of Wild Turkey 101 follow your recommendation, will let you know how it tastes.

Great video! Completely agree with y’all! Hurt my heart seeing that Stagg Jr going into a cocktail! Been fortunate enough to try it a couple of times, but still haven’t been able to get my mitts on a bottle…keep up the great work! Cheers!!!🥃

I did the math on the Sentimental Gentlemen… that’s $78.86 of Scotch per expensive cocktail 🎉

I'd like to see a comparison of what you prefer comparing a budget that you can enjoy drinking neat, and a budget that you wouldn't enjoy drinking neat.

Jeremy, Friendly recommendation you need to try Auchentoshan 3 wood.

7:39 Honestly though.. I would love to see how that Stagg Jr would hold up in an Old Fashioned! Not that I could ever bring myself to do it (that’s what you’re here for haha), but I bet that dark cherry cola note in the Stagg Jr would be damn good in that Old Fashioned.. #GIMMIEAFLASK #SAVETHESTAGG

First of your videos I’ve watched. Loved it. Be watching more!

Good video. Gotta love the Rusty Nail! DRAMBUIE!!! Thanks for the entertainment and takin one for the team. Don't know that I'd have the stones to put the 38 year in anything but a pristine Glencarin. #gimmeaflask #savethestagg

Stumbled upon your channel a few days ago and went with your recommendation for budget bourbons. Used Wild Turkey 101 for an old fashioned last night and it was killer. Thanks! By the way, I love Beard Brand and hang out with the guys every time I'm in Austin.

As always, awesome video. Thanks for burning through that bank breaking whiskey for our entertainment!

Have you tried Mr. Black a coffee liqueur…love to make Iced coffee with a triple shot, Half and Half,sweetened to taste with several Splenda packets…keep the videos coming…

You guys should try the comparison on a rob roy or a perfect rob Roy

This made me realize I need to step up my cocktail game, a whiskey and coke seems a bit lazy now. Great video! #givemeaflask #savethestag

Definitely dip your toes into some cocktails. The old fashioned alone can be be made with so many awesome variations. The different bitters, different sugars (cube, simple syrup, agave, maple syrup, etc), different whiskeys. I’m still trying variations.

Fantastic entertainment - you two are brilliant 🤣🤣

Monkey Shoulder is a good budget scotch, but If you're willing to entertain a suggestion from another whiskey drinker, you should try McClelland's Highland. It's one of those bottles that's priced well below its worth. You and "Big AL" keep it up these videos. My wife & I love em - Thanks

My buddy and I have a phrase “Coke your blue“ meaning to enjoy whatever it is you have how you have it. Kind of like the whiskey tribe. If you want to put Johnny Walker blue into your glass of Coke, all the power to you. He was gifted a small bottle of Johnny Walker blue, and we both tried it and decided that it is no better than Johnny Walker Black. That’s just our opinion, of course that is subjective. We still have the bottle, and the only time we use it is if someone decides to be a snob and we want to make them cringe by pouring an ounce or so into a glass of Coke. Love the content! #gimmieaflask #savethestagg

I have the same attitude about using expensive whiskey in a cocktail. I usually make my old fashions with WT rye 101. However, when that ran out I caved in and used my sagamore double oak. ( not insanely expensive but still about $65 where I live). I have to say, it was friggin delicious. And then I decided to try it with a peated nikka yoichi. And that was amazing as well and a totally different experience. Now I’m willing to try all my whiskeys and realize that it can totally change the profile of the cocktail. I don’t know why I make rules for myself anymore.

Man, I've been teetotal for 5 years, these new videos are killing me! Amazing content as always, the B-roll is absolutely on point. Listening to the Local Social Pub podcast recently; you're absolutely crushing it, dude. Much love from England #gimmeaflask #savethestagg

Great video! I totally agree, save the top shelf for sipping and savoring! #givemeaflask #savethestagg

Nice comparison. It would have been interesting to compare the Scotch in something like a perfect or dry Rob Roy. The lighter flavored vermouth may have brought around a different result. Drambuie can really mask or overpower the Scotch, depending on how you mix them.

#gimmeaflask #savethestagg thanks for taking a couple for the team! I hope you finished most of those expensive ones 😬

The results were interesting and thank you for taking one for the team Jeremy. Now the real question would you have the same results for Rum and/or Blended Whiskey?

I've just started watching the channel and it has quickly become a favorite. Watching an $800 bottle of 38 year Scotch go into a cocktail was hilarious! #gimmieaflask #savethestagg

Great work guys I appreciate the legitimately honest opinions, big whiskey fan.

Awesome Video!! you guys have such great points of views on whiskey and a great variety of cocktails.

Hear a lot of people say they prefer the 101, something about being balanced better.

Please do the EDC truck content sounds awesome!!!

This was another fun one! Super cool idea to actually test the blind preferences. While i usually tend to throw higher proofed whiskeys in my cocktails to keep the whiskey flavors strong, I tend to keep my less budget friendly ones away from mixers. Also, Fred Noe, Jim Beam Master Distiller's quote is the best way to "drink whiskey is any d*mn way you please" #gimmieaflask #savethestagg

but on the subject, in a spirit forward cocktail like an old fashioned or martini or some such, the booze matters a bit, in a big mixer type cocktail like a pina colada or something with a lot of juices and syrups, it's just straight to budget stuff.
