Can We Guess the Price of These Bourbons?

Welcome to another exciting episode of SLB Drinks! Today, we're diving into the world of bourbon with a fun and challenging twist. We're trying to guess the prices of different bourbons while blind testing them. Will we be able to distinguish between the high-end bottles and the budget-friendly options? Watch and find out! #BourbonTasting #BlindTasting #SLBDrinks #WhiskeyReview #BourbonChallenge #WhiskeyLovers #DrinkResponsibly

    OGD BIB is testament to why I'm just not willing to spend more than $70 on a bottle anymore. There's too much value in the middle. Most of my favorite sippers are in the $40 price range.

    That's why I am a big fan of new entries in the market trying to compete at that price or even lower while elevating the quality compared to what's been there in the past. Companies who do that are much more likely to get people to try something new as well as repeat buy. The new Jim Beam, Benchmark and Green River show that among others in the last couple of years.

    Yes! Also, they should not know what the other's guess is. Should just right it down. That way, you have to guess as close as you can to the price. Otherwise your guess is just based on strategy, so the 1st person should always guess low, as to not go over & the 2nd player either guesses 1 penny higher or lower.. But if they want to guess outloud, you have to alternate on who goes 1st, as whoever guesses 2nd has a huge advantage.

Found 4 bottles over 4 months at retail at a grocery store. That's done though. Haven't had it and they removed the barcode/label off the shelf.

    I really like this idea of doing almost a gameshow aspect for blinds. If u guys do another one, it would be better to keep the price guess written down or blind as well to keep any bias from the other's guess. Then u tell each other the prices at the end after u have written them down. Another fun one would be like an O/U betting line. You have 4-5 glasses and someone sets a price and Kurt and Trenton need to guess over/under the actual value of the bottle. I loved how the OGD u both picked close to $70 and its only a $25 bottle. Shows how underrated it is and I know Trenton likes the ryes and that has a high rye mash bill.

  • @Killernuma123
    @Killernuma123Ай бұрын

    It should be closest to the actual price period, not closest without going over. That removes any shenanigans with trying to guess lower or higher than the other person. You're trying to artificially remove that at present even though the rules incentivize it.

    Let me tell you a story from today about price. In Nashville and just went to Whiskey River Saloon. I ordered a Weller Single Barrel and neglected to notice the price. Bartender climbed a ladder and walked across bar to reach the top shelf....All the while I was ignorant.....$145 for one ounce. Embarrassed of my idiocy, I slunk back to my table with booze in hand. I drank it...very slowly......I expected some kind of magic to happen. It did not. Price is not correlated to quality in the whiskey world. Now I just feel stupid

For the other two: Maker's Mark 46 Cask Strength since it's done so well in other blinds, and maybe something pricier like a Jack Daniels 10 year? Look forward to whatever you choose!

    Nice win OGD! You should just do these type of vids with the intent to give your opinion on what the current price is or give 2 guesses; 1 being what you think the price is, & the 2nd being what you think it is really worth or what you would be happy to pay for it. Otherwise it's just more of a competition between you 2 & your guess does not best reflect what you really think of the whiskey. To do this, just write down your guess so the other person does not know. Also, have no penalty for guessing over. Closest guess wins, period.

  • @BeThereAgain_BestServedNeat
    @BeThereAgain_BestServedNeatАй бұрын

    Like has been said a number of times in the Comments on a previous game show episode, y'all should go with *who is closest* and drop the "closest without going over." Or we get what happened today in this episode with Kurt admitting that, with his guess of $45, he was just "playing the game" but his *actual assessment* of the value was $75.

  • @motohead077

    @motohead077

    The proper & only strategy based on the rules they are using is: The player who picks 2nd, states a price either 1 penny/$0.01 higher or lower that the 1st players guess, or simply says "higher" or "lower". That is why there should be no penalty for guessing over & each player should submit their price guess in the "dark", meaning the other player is unaware of it.
