Greetings from the great white north! After you two praised the Dalmore cigar malt, I had to go out and get myself a bottle. Wow. It was like being a kid again, and discovering there were women who would take their clothes off on the internet. Now I know there's more to life than Lagavulin. Keep up the good work lads!

Since the Angels envy episode where Rex mentioned tasting peanuts, I have picked up that flavor in three different whiskeys ( Larceny, Evan Williams BIB, and Old Grand Dad 114). I don't hate the flavor, but I much prefer fruity/floral/spicy flavors.

Oh! By the way! It's Oorah! For Marines. Or just, "Rah" if you're felling really adventurous and motivated. I really discovered whiskey while I was in the Marines and bought a bunch then stopped, then discovered you guys...back to buying a bunch.

Best toast yet at 16:14

He is saying Hooyah! It's SF (SEAL, SWCC, and EOD.) If I had a sip of whisk[e]y for every time I yelled that out to an instructor while I was trying to (con)vince them that I loved the beatin' I was getting then I'd fill the vault 10x's over! I completely understand how many requests you likely get, and if you don't get to it in 4...hundred months...I've witnessed your ability to complete tasks in a "timely" manner LOL! Seriously love you guys, keep doing an amazingly informative and hilarious job with your tastings. Still top of my list for guys I'd love to drink copious amounts of whisk[e]y with...next to Gandhi

This was more amusing than usual - Rex should go to the movies more often

Rex looks so refreshed and happy. He should take more days off from whatever he usually does and just make these videos!

You should try some stuff from Herman Marshall here in Dallas. Just visited them today and got a tour from Herman himself. Their bourbon is great and they have other varieties too.

i just picked up macallan double cask and i have to say im torn between highland park 15 and macallan, now i've only been into whisky for about a year now but thank god im away from black velvet thanks to you guys

Welcome to the journey.

Have you guys tried Crater Lake Rye Whiskey? From the Bend distillery in Bend Oregon. Think you would enjoy it. The distillery also makes vodka and gin but the rye is very tasty.

I wish bourbon was in greater supply over here in the uk, we only have a few available easily

Navy: Hooya Marines: Oorah, (done sharply sounding a little like a dog's bark) Army: Hooah, ( A kind of guttural grunt like being punched in the gut) Etymology is an acronym, (Like everything else in the military), originating from H.U.A.; Heard, Understood and Acknowledged. Then becoming HOOA during WWII by the airborne standing for Head Out of Ass. BTW, how was the wood finish of these two bourbons? I just had some Bulleit Bourbon last night and it too was too woody for me. Up front it was delicious. Carmel, Coconut, Cinnamon and more, but the bait and switch is more than I'm willing to put up with on a regular basis. The finish was harsh and all tannin for a really long terrible finish.

I think there is an “independent distillery” here in Indiana and honestly until I got into this channel I didn’t even know about mgp. However even knew as I am. I looked at the site and said yeah that’s mgp

Wikipedia suggests that it is: Oorah (Marines), Hooah (Army), Hooah (Air Force), and Hooyah (Navy). My experience is there isn't that definite of a line between their chosen noises (with the exception of Marines, who are pretty territorial about their "Oorah"). In other news, my adorable daughter had a question for me today. She wanted to know why, in the movie Frozen, Hans chases Anna instead of the queen, Elsa. She thinks it is because Elsa gave him the cold shoulder.

My first impression was that it wasn't the best, but the mesquite smoked was interesting. I'm really surprised that these craft distilleries are staying afloat, but its also kind of forcing the bigger brands to do more and experiment a little more.

If all they want is to make a reasonable living doing something they love, they'll be fine.
