I see the Boss, i click the video
There are plenty of good Rye's under 40 bucks. I don't even know where to begin. More Bourbon Boss videos please.
Four Roses single barrel is really good. Also I do like the Buffalo Trace as well.

I love four roses
I remember my 1st time tasting Old Forester. I tasted it blind next to an $80 Wild Turkey product. The Old Forester 100 is always in my cabinet. It's great to sip, and makes a mean old fashioned.
I never understood why people need to drink expensive whiskey when cheaper stuff like this can be just as good or better😊
Yes sir!!! More of this!!
Can't wait for your future Rye video! I've heard nothing but great things from the Sagamore Distillery. You should also try some from the American Malt Whisky category and Texas Whisky as well.
Jack Daniels, Nashville Barrel Company, and Sagamore Spirits are making my favorite Ryes. Loved the video!
Knob Creek 9 and 12 years, Four Roses Single Barrel, Wild Turkey Rare Breed, OF 1920 & 1910, WR Double Oaked, Rittenhouse Rye - my go to’s Old Grand Dad 114 - barrel proof bourbon at a great price and it’s a high rye mash bill. Right around $40 - absolute banger

DO ANOTHER ONE WITH THIS LIST
Definitely need more like this and still would love to see him do his favorite store bought beers
A review of Bottled-in-Bond bourbons/whiskeys from different price points. That would be cool. Great work!
Old Grandad 114! Best bottom shelf and it packs the proof.

Yup. The only other bargain bourbon I like nearly as much is Jim Beam Devil's Cut, but that's only 90 proof.

Ive always stood by Wild Turkey 101. But I've got a bottle of that 114 too, it'll get you where you need to go.
Old Forester 1920 is a delight.

Ur doing us proud BOSS
wild turkey 101 for the win
Look like you got it down! Strait up to the point. Rare breed rye and Emerald Giant from Redwood empire are my current go to ryes. Cheers!
Consider yourself fortunate my friend. Here in Michigan, anything Weller has a 3-digit price tag if you can even find it.
I love this video aaahh❤

I always loved 4roses and knob creak smoked maple
The Old forester is my favorite out of this line up. Their 1910 and 1920 are phenomenal. Johnny Drum to me has some herbal notes that throws some people off. Surprised you liked it.
Old Forester 100 and Wild Turkey 101 are hands down, the best bang for your buck if you're looking for a quality bourbon under $25. OF 1910 & 1920 are truly phenomenal, but they'll also run $60 a bottle.
Angels Envy has a great rye whiskey. Perfect for the cold months
I didnt know yall had a show again!

That’s is for watching! We’re excited to be back. Please spread the word.
Nice solid review!!! SKOL
I like Old Forster so much , one time i got the bottle as present, shame that is not available in Europe, is so hard to get here , but i would buy it everytime over Johnnie ,jack or Jameson
Elijah Craig all day! You got that right!
Number one suggestion for your request for tips, ask Ashla! ✌️
I tried to get into ryes and I just didn’t like them…. Until I tried Old Forester’s Rye, that stuff is delicious!!
Good video. If you do a Rye comparison, definitely look at JD Bonded Rye, Old Overholt, and Rittenhouse for under 40.
Old Forester Rye is definitely your best bang for your buck. About $22 a bottle and one of the best out there. Period.
The best Rye bourbons sound like a good video although I'm not a drinker myself.
I'm a fan of bulleit rye! Bulleit products in general are great.

Me too!
I got Elijah Craig at a family dirty Santa a couple years ago and it's really good imo. Especially for the price.
Definitely want to see more bourbon tastings. Give James Pepper or Henry McKenna if you want a good rye bourbon
Basil Hayden's Dark Rye, is a pretty decent one, so is Knob Creek small batch Rye. I would pick 4-5 Ryes you might like, I would do $60 and under, and do a blind taste test of them head to head so that way, there will be no outside influence at all on which one you ultimately like the best.
Couple things, definitely do a rye edition and also do a cask strength edition. You seemed to like higher proof so Cask Strength seems up your alley. For ryes, sagamore double oak is amazing, Rittenhouse rye, rare breed rye, Sazerac rye, all good options Also, if you want to smell less alcohol, when you go to smell it, open your mouth slightly, it should be less harsh.

Good recommendations. Solid tips.
If you can find the Elijah Craig Rye it's delicious! There seems to be a shortage of it in Michigan currently. I went to 3 stores tonight looking for it and couldn't find even a single bottle! I still have a half a bottle so it's not panic time yet. After tomorrow with the in-laws will be panic time lol.

That's my old, reliable rye. Seems always available in California for like $23. Damn state needs to ship u some!
Personally I am a fan of the Benchmark Full Proof. Here local its about $25 a bottle and comes in at 125 proof. I had low expectations from it and was pleasantly surprised.
Need more videos like this asap Boss 🤘 do a 20 dollar one. Ezra Brooks, Evan Williams, Heaven Hill, Old Crow, call it Rot Gut Reviews.
I’m getting the Weller SR for $22.99 at my ABC. It’s my daily sipper along with RR10.
For under $30 the new Jack Daniel’s bonded rye is phenomenal! Ryes are generally 2 categories. Straight or finished. Finished ryes are fun to try because there’s so many of them. For a finished rye I’d highly recommend Barrel Seagrass. It’s not cheap but it’s worth it.

@@evanwigerYou would be surprised. Old No7 sucks, but their Single Barrel, Barrel Strength in both the bourbon and the rye are great. I’ve been hearing good things about their bonded line as well. Plus, you would be surprised how many brands of whiskey are made from JD barrels.

Not a bad list.
Beep, beep, beep, Cork, beep, beep...😂😂😂 Drunk Alabama Boss is best...🤓
One surprisingly good rye, is Crown Royal North Harvest Rye. I tasted exactly what they mentioned, and it has a sweet, fruity, sorta floral smell it. Almost like it's trying to be the "apple pie" of rye whiskey, with apple being the lower taste. It ain't that bad, at all.
Elijah Craig rye one of my favorite
I’d like to see a Canadian Whiskey review 🤷♂️
I definitely want to see some review s on the south African whiskeys that are available

@@Ratedred i recommended three ships ,5 year old , bourbon cask,10 year old ,Bains cape mountain whiskey, and I like you to try three ships mash tun ,it's a sweet whiskey, all really good I think they are available in America
James E Pepper 1776 Rye is my favorite
Angels Envy Rye is my fave.
The cheaper they get the bigger headache next morning lol
You need to try the barrel proof Elijah Craig, and Stagg.
Michter's cask strength RYE is the best on the market, runs 150 a bottle, hard to get but worth every penny
Angels envy rye is great Eagle rare is good Id like to see you try Isle scotch whiskey
Just give me Wild Turkey and a dixie cup to drink it with.

Try the high proofs
Pendleton 1910 rye is a must
Bulleit rye, wild turkey 101 rye, and angels envy rye are all really good
Hey Boss you want the best Rye try "Jack Daniel's Twice Barreled Rye" or their" Single Barrel Rye" both good. Also "Michters Single Barrel Rye" is a top contender from and more affordable then the other 2.
BAMA BOSS!!!!!!!
Wild Turkey 101. Semper Fi
whistle Pig Rye is my Go to ... around 80 bucks but worth it imo.
Higher proof typically comes with more flavor. Probably why you like them more.
Very partial to Coopers Craft 100 or Knob Creek 120 around that price point, may be a couple bucks over or under depending
My opinion the best sipping Rye for a bourbon drinker is Pikesville
Rich & Rare Reserve has been my go-to the past decade. I should own stock in the company. If someone were to give me a bottle of Crown Royal, I would be quick to trade it for R&R Reserve. I'm not drinking it right now. But that's only because i finished the bottle i had late last night.
My parents love buffalo trace
You lookin' for rye bourbon? Get yourself some Bulleit Bourbon. Also get some Field of Dreams bourbon, just because Field of Dreams(the movie) corn field corn was used.
New Riff rye, New Riff Single Barrel Rye, whistle pig piggy back and Sazaracs should make the list for Ryes.
They should raffle off the opportunity to sip whiskey with Alabama boss in a video and donate the $ to charity. Something rednecky

You should try Old Grand Dad Bottled in Bond. Or... Old Grand Dad 114
If you wanna try a really good rye, it's $40, but try Echo rye whiskey
Elijah Craig rye whiskey is on point.
Good rye is Jack Daniels Barrel Proof Rye!
Benchmark Single Barrel is an excellent cheap bottle.
Bulleit has a rye!!! He we wana see alabama boss try that 200 dollor bottle of that Samuel adams haha that was awesome 👌
I like James E. Pepper 1776 Rye
High proof and cheap try old grandad 116. My favorite rye is Old Forester Rye when I can find it

Evan Williams for me.
Jack Daniels Single Barrel Barrel Proof Rye is seriously some of the best rye for $70
Slow and low rock and rye is a good rye
For under 40 $ ancient age, Evan Williams 100 proof an wild turkey are some of my picks an when I find it old crow for a cheap bottle
Bulliet and Woodford reserve are my two choices..just saying
best rye in the game for the price is Jack Daniels single barrel barrel proof truly amazing rye at only 64.99 can not beat it

The bonded is well received as well.
Get some Canadian Hunter
Try some Paul Masson Grande Amber.
I am more of a Woodford Reserve Evan Williams myself, but love all bourbons. If you want some rye in it, Woodford Reserve has some. I want to say 30%. Not under $40 though I don't believe, more in the $45 range. The Double Oak is the bomb, but definitely not under 40, more in the $55-$60 range, but worth every penny. Of course any bourbon is not going to be all rye, or mostly rye, as in order for it to be called bourbon it has to be at least 50.1% corn. Pretty sure Woodford is 55% corn, 30% Rye, 15% barley. Been awhile since I have been there. They do make a Rye Whiskey however.
Tumblin Dice Single Barrel High Rye Bourbon is tasty
"Cork it Yur Damn Self" - Alabama Boss
Rye is better cold makes it smoother
for me, a little bit of water, helps with tasting it.
