This episode made me so happy. Watching it slowly build up to putting Blanton's first, all the while pleading for it not to be so, was perfection. The reaction just made it all the better

Why do ppl try to hate on Blantons so much… it’s freakin awesome! These ppl, reviewers and not just you guys, keep saying this or this or this is better but it always wins the blinds. If it had a different name or maybe bottle, it would be tops uncontested.

That LOOK when he saw the order...priceless. And the little *notes in the screen toward the end, now that's some funny shit there, I don't care who you are. This vid is chocked FULL of win!

Haha!! As a Blanton fan, this video is so satisfying~!

Blantons gets a lot of hate, but i find it to be very consistent and very good. Very comfortable bourbon.

Most hilarious ending ever. Excellent editing with the close ups and captions. A+ to the balls to publish this, lol!

I knew blantons was the best out there I stand by these two profession men here and their absolute solid choices and clearly bulletproof opinions now I’m going to go out and pay $180 for a bottle 🤣

Great episode. Hilarious. “I’m pregnant, I think that makes your palate different.”

Here's the thing. No one says suns because that would be many days. Many moons refers to full moons which happen every 28 days. That face you made when you looked at the key. Priceless!

Some years have 13 full moons instead of 12. This happens ever 2-3 years or 7 out of 19 years. It is used to say something rarely happens.

The old video of this was my introduction to your videos, great to see you revisit it. Very glad Hancock's made a comeback I love that bottle, always has more flavor than the proof would have you believe.

Love it - excellent video (especially the cuts/edits at the end - very entertaining)

i've always picked Blanton's over Elmer T. Lee-haven't tried the others. i don't understand why is has gotten cool to dis Blanton's-it's so solid. Blanton's will always be one of my favorites.

Love the blind tastings and editing sound/vid bits! One caveat to blind tastings is the story of the Pepsi challenge- where in the challenge people "preferred" Pepsi because in the "moment" the human pallet tends to favor sweet. But post challenge, majority of people tend to actually prefer coke because of its balance and nuanced cola flavors comparatively. So don't give up on your Elmer T!

I'm dying!!!! Couldn't wait for you guys to see the results.

Freaking awesome review. I’ve only had Elmer and Rock Hill at restaurant/ bars, but I have a bottle of both Blanton’s 2017 and Hancock’s 2019. I would put Hancocks at the top by a narrow margin, but all of my friends drool over the Blanton’s.

This was incredibly enjoyable as I too have a love/hate relationship with Blantons

CLASSIC! Great video!

Great Video Gents! Surprise surprise surprise, thanks for driving Hancocks into the secondary realm now. What would have been a fun edition of this is a mash up on the blind, tasting these four blind but also doing a how much would you pay blind not knowing which label you are hitting. Keep up the great work!!

@uncledeadhead3674

why does how much you pay matter? , if you cant afford to drink what you like, dont drink it. doesnt mean it isnt better. and blantons isnt expensive by any means. 60 bucks is hardly an expensive bottle.

I think you missed the point of this. This is mostly for newer people into bourbon seeing bottles not knowing what is or isn't a good price. Has no bearing on ability of purchase.

Blantons one of my favs too... Eagle rare 17 Weller 12 also up there

Priceless. Great video.

This video makes my day. I’ve only tried Elmer once and it was a half pour in KY at a bar. I was grossly underwhelmed (but I’d love to try it again, full pour and really put notes down). Either way...I know it can’t be worth much more than the $40 retail. I’d pay no more than $60 just to have a bottle, but would prefer $50

Blind tastings can really humble you. I've seen many people pick lesser wines and bourbon over the big names when blinded. Great show!

Love this video. It proves the hate for they hype of Blanton’s is real. I have hundreds of bottles of bourbon, and on the right day, Blanton’s is a pleasant pour. Some times it’s a little thin.. sometimes a little proofy at the front of the palate. But when the stars align, it’s a unique dessert.

I absolutely love this video!

LOL. Blanton's is amazing and it is just fun to crap on!

So here’s the thing..... nice vid gents

I agree. Blanton's rules in blind tasting. My son and I did 26 Bourbons, blind, and Blanton's was #1 for me

So, the oft derided and forcefully shat upon fluid, known as Blanton's rose victorious. OMG! Surely these are the end times! Good show, boys.

This was a great video the results portion was amazing lol 😂

That Dominatrix done whipped you. And you liked it. 😂

Shout-out to my boy Rueben for getting me hooked on this show.

Did the same blind taste with some buddies but put Ancient Age in there as well as a curve ball, oddly only 2 people didn't put AA last.

That was a fantastic video. Best of luck with the pregnancy Dan.

Blantoooons good thing i have 5 of em lol

I like blantons. I am not one to knock it all day for advertising. But, also not my favorite as I typically go towards proof. Watching this I thought: A) the elmer has a lot of air in it ( blantons did as well so that theory is gone; I don't LOVE elmer but I typically think what your first reaction was: very hot/spicy with less flavor for 90 proof) B) Rock Hill Farms is awesome! But opposite of the elmer because it is so suttle but has typical BT flavors and is 100 proof. Hard to blind this line up. Enjoyed watching though !!

Awesome. I've definitely blamed the person who poured before.

Hey guys, I really enjoy the channel. Do you have plans to add a little accent light to the Bourbon Junkies sign? I think that could help to separate you guys from your background now that it is not white. I’d pop that sign off the wall and move it forward 3-4 inches and then add some little lights back behind that (shinning out the top, bottom and sides) Hope that makes sense.
