    This was a great episode. Kurt, it is so funny how you kept wanting to spill the beans while Rebecca was getting frustrated. Love the interaction between all of you. I am newer into the bourbon and rye scene. Scotch is my go-to drink. Lagavulin 16, Highland Park, and Dalmore for me, please. I started really diving into your channel to help a buddy put on a bourbon tasting. He's knowledgeable with wine, and my strength is with scotch. Your videos helped immensely with getting ready for that tasting. I am now drinking bourbon as much, if not more, than scotch. My only complaint with the channel is that you have given me more great choices with bourbon and rye whiskies than I have time or money to pursue. Keep up the great work!

    Great show as always guys! Thank you! The Alberta Premium at 63.5 is about $73 in San Antonio, TX. I love high-proof rye; but this one was a bit disappointing for me - possibly due to the high price-point - yet it seems a bit too alcoholic on the nose and a bit too rough around the edges in terms of the burn and overall start-to-finish drinking experience. So to be fair, the 112 proof might be significantly better. My personal favorite high-proof rye is the Knob Creek Cask Strength at 127 proof (bottled in 2010).

    I travel to Canada a lot...been to all the major cities (except Winnipeg) over the past several months. When I was in a liquor store in Vancouver, I got talking to a local, and he recommended Alberta Premium Cask Strength Rye to me. Bought it, took it home, and OMG! It is so unlike other Canadian whiskies, because most of them are 80 proof and kind of dull. It's not easy to find, even in Canada. So, I'm glad to see you add it to your show, but now it's going to be even harder to find here in the U.S. Let's hope the other KZreadrs don't catch on to this whiskey! LOL.

    I love rye whiskey, especially MGP under any name. Redemption is my go-to, it's affordable and so drinkable. If I drank $75(the cost of Alberta Premium Cask Strength around here)bottles all the time, Alberta Premium would be the one. Turns out they're kinda the MGP of Canada, known for their ryes and supplying many sourced brands. I believe Whistle Pig is AP. I think. Keep it up, y'all, I always enjoy the show.

    Alberta Premium Cask Strength is well deserving of the recognition it received from Jim Murray. Being the "best whiskey in the world" is always going to be hyper subjective but it is the most unassuming yet awesome bottles in my collection. I don't think most people would rank it as their favorite bottle of the year but Jim Murray loves to pick off-ball, less obvious, hitters as his top whiskey. He usually picks something that isn't allocated or hard to find because that's only the best whiskey for a very small minority (because of scarcity).

    I started tasting good whiskey about 10 years ago. I bought many good to great bourbons in the past 10 years, but, I must say for the past 6 years, I am enjoying ryes way more than I ever enjoyed any bourbons... Also, a little off topic, but, I find Scotch to have a lot more to offer than bourbon or rye... I do enjoy good flavors, and have most recently started tasting gins and tequilas... My goodness,,, there is so much good and different flavors to be enjoyed in all categories of spirits... But, I will say I really like the rye whiskies over bourbons, it's seems to me they have more to offer, in particular,their spiciness.
