Thanks for the big ol middle finger for Wild Turkey and every Distiller that raises prices like that!!!

Welcome to the comments section. My name is Jeff.

We were on the old Forrester tour on Friday and they were bottling the 1924.

We need more people to say NO at price points like this! Thanks Mr. Porter!

At least I have one on your list, the EH Taylor barrel proof 131.1 batch 12 and I actually paid MSR at $80.

I talked to OF directly. OF1924 releases Q1 2024. Feb-Mar.

You’re killing it as always. I’ve been relatively disconnected from the whiskey world for about a year now. The hype and d-baggedness has taken most of the fun out of it so I’ve pretty much stepped away from buying any more bottles. I haven’t bought a bottle in a long time so I’m kinda blanking out on prices relative to your list. I was at a restaurant the other night - the bar had the whole Buffalo Trace line up including this year’s Antique collection. This is rare in my area so I decided to break my self-imposed embargo and try the Wm Larue Weller. $110 for a pour. Nothing but harsh barrel for me so my personal opinion is to strike it from your list. Paying that much for a pour of a highly allocated bottle and being severely disappointed has also reinforced my view on what I used to love - it’s a lot of hype - I wouldn’t pay retail for that bottle. Still watching your channel but stepping away from whiskey has been nice. Stay well and continued success with your life.

2023 Bombergers is absolutely PHENOMENAL.

Solid order, Porter. 👍 Best of luck with your hunting this season!

an amazing list. I couldn't have thought of all these. but made my list a lot easier to make. cheers

Great video, Matt. Loved watching it and it reminding me how grateful I am for the access I have to great bottles. Which works out okay for you too. When you try that sample of Mister Sam I sent, you’ll add that to your list. 😜

You totally reminded me of that OF 1924 release 10 year. I'm pumped for that one. Should hopefully be regularly available too.

Awesome content Matt!

Love your list. I have two bottles on list. Stagg $55 + tax and Four Roses 135 anniversary $197+tax. I will have to do lotteries for the others. Keep up the great reviews.

I agree, fantastic!

The Whiskey fad is getting ridiculous, you’re no longer paying for the product,but the prestige of owning it. 😂

100% agree with the concept of diminishing returns. We have bottles that we gladly paid $200 for and love... and that subsequently lost over and over in blind battles to whiskeys that are sub-$100. And I mean, there are three Matt Madness round wins between the two of us, which means we're spitting truth bombs.

I like this Matt. This is the real whiskey/bourbon enthusiast energy. While Sazerac is sending whiskeytube people BTAC the rest of us are stuck looking at shelves and then getting frustrated and burnt out on prices and the under the table bs.

Great wish list Matt! I’m a year into my journey and I have been blessed with a guy that sold me (2)RR13yr 115.00 (2)RR Rickhouse 220.00 KC 18yr batch 1 115.00 KC 18yr batch 2 120.00 HC Clermont 185.00 My son was gifted a Pappy 15yr for a wedding gift and I’ve had a couple of pours, it’s really nice! Cheers!

This was awesome Matt

First video of yours I’ve seen. Loved it.

Was able to snag a KC18 last week. Very happy about that

Thanks Matt! With you on the KoK.

I was so super pumped to get the alert for Wild Turkey Generations, as I always miss out. Logged in, still in stock, holy cow here we go! $450. Unreal.

Great list!

Another great video my friend!

List good. Much like. Many cheers.🥃

Great video, glad to hear at least one of the whiskey lubetubers has some common sense on pricing/value. Thanks WTWT!

I felt my wallet flinch when I read 30 bottles haha. Great list!

This video should have two like buttons for how good it is

Good for you, stand up to the ridiculous raise in prices. Its the only way they will come back down to earth. The more people keep paying these prices the higher they're going to get

I just got an RR13 for $135 last week! I once got a GTS for MSRP long long time ago.

Great list, all heavy hitters! I was lucky enough in the past few months to grab 9 Stagg @ MSRP.

Great list! Awesome How about 13th Colony Double Oak? Thanks Matt Great job!

Over the last 3 years I've won lotteries in PA and DE for 2019 & 2020 GTS, a Stagg Jr and a Stagg and a Blanton's SFTB...all at retail.

For those near northern KY, The Party Source had bottles of Gem of Kentucky from Barrel #73 in stock a few days ago for $195. They also had Knob Creek 18 for $175, Bookers 2023-03, and Woodford Triple Sonoma for $160.

I got the same Russell's Rickhouse email...also went online and it was available. Then thought about the $300, and didn't pull the trigger. I'm sure it'll be amazing, but I think I'll survive. I was able to pickup a Russell's 13 in a similar fashion last year, and it was pretty decent, but...$300.

Nice work!

Great list.

Thankful to have tried all the Pappys’, 15 was my fav…. But my fav dram of all time was a 2020 KOK -1000%, it was a wow moment. fav bottle i own is my 2022 Four Roses 🌹 LE…

Great stuff! Just subscribed. Look forward to viewing future videos!

13th Colony Double Oak is supposed to be crazy special. Also the Elijah Craig Barrel Proof C923 is pretty fantastic as well, but if I got it, it's somewhat attainable. I've seen several reviews of this year's birthday bourbon and haven't seen a positive one yet.

Love all of the brown Forman and BT in the top ten.

I'm also a fan of the 2XO line up as well. I came across the 2XO Gem of Kentucky, and snatched it up at the $200 price point. People don't realize this is a single barrel offering; compared to the previous blends. It's fantastic for my taste profile! I was at another store and found the same barrel # on the shelf and decided to pass though. A couple of days later I found a different barrel #, and now I have bottles from barrels #'s 70 and 71. No regrets! These are fantastic! It's a very complex experience with the high rye mash bill.

All I know is that every time I open a new bottle of, say, OF 1920 or WT Rare Breed I love it like the first time.

Parker's Heritage?? Great list Matt!

That Blade and Bow 22 year is some of Pappys last Barrels in existence! Back when he owned the Stitzel-Weller property. Hence the price.

just found this guy... perfect! hit thumbs up and subscribed. loved the video!

Happy to say that my wife scored a bottle of Michters 10 at MSRP. So, there. 🎉

Just paid 49.99 in Virginia at an allocated release. Trading for a Michters toasted barrel strength rye. Nice review!

Pretty good list. Most of the top 10 would get flipped asap. I would for sure keep KoK, GTS, PVW15, and OFPC. But the rest would probably pay for the rest of the bottles I buy all year long.

I had my luckiest day ever a couple of days ago. I scored three BT bottles at MSRP that I have tasted but never owned before: Blanton's Gold, ETL, and EHT SB. Go figure!

Good on ya Matt

Great video, I'm always tempted by the Remus Gatsby but have never had. One piece of advice I would give about the Russell's Single Rick CNF - don't try it near RR13 - in fact, make sure your RR13 isn't even in the same room! I thought it was a little boring unfortunately. And also, BTAC is showing up in my area at $179/ea not sure if that's an official srp increase...

Stagg 23B is fantastic. It’s beyond tasty. I paid over Msrp but it’s worth it

The Stuff that Bourbon Dreams are made of! All the unicorns at SRP! 🤔 One can always hope!

Always on the lookout for a Michters BP rye. That’s my unicorn.

Heading to KY Thursday to pickup the Birthday Bourbon! Hoping to find some other good bottles around some distilleries

Angel's Envy Rye maple syrup waffle kicked up to cask strength is just kicking up the rum they blend it with to cask strength

Two days ago I get Stagg 23B for msrp!! Wow.. I'm so happy. In my area usually 200+

Matt! You need to check out Durham, NC's Mystic Distillery! Their Broken Oak just won in SF!

Absolutely Marvelous! Matt....you have ADHD. Its ok. I love you.

1000% with you on the King of Kentucky. I actually came across one last year (and in California no less!) they wanted... ...wait for it... . ...$2,200 for it. I was ready to pay up to $400, not knowing what I was coming, but fuuuuuuuuuck me that one hurt.

I got a Parker's Heritage 10 yr rye pretty close to MSRP, tastes pretty good. I'd love to get a Michters Toasted Rye. I've had an Angel's Envy cask strength rye before...tasted like a neon pink extra sprinkles My Little Pony cupcake, had to give it away

Nice list of wishing on a star whiskey. MSRP = Might Someday Really Panout

The 2xo GOK is on the shelf at Jax near me for $199.99

Nice video

I was lucky to get a Gem of Kentucky and it’s delicious.

Matt, I made the same mistake yesterday with Russell’s! Fingers crossed we see it!😅

I grabbed 3 Stagg last week at msrp $49.99. Hoping for some BTAC this winter

I will now refer to EH barrel proof as Cousin Eddie. 😂 def on my wish list.

Was lucky enough to get a store pick barrel proof EHT. 79.99! Couldn’t pass that up

Parker's Heritage? Have you tried this year's 17th edition Cask Strength Rye?

Missed William Heaven Hill 17yr 120proof

Matt, I agree with you. I will see every one of these bottles….. next year at a raffle and end up with none of them. Also, a heck of an idea would be what could/would you buy for the Generations bottle to start a collection?

The new Angels Envy Cask Strength doesn't come in the fancy box, just a really pretty bottle, fyi.

The Old Forester master taster Melissa told me that 1924 will be distributed in early 2024

Dude the Knob 18 bombed terribly. I was shocked at how flat it was. Save your money Matt

Everybody loves a Handy!

Snagged the Remus VII, the Gatsby is available near me at $250, would love a Russell’s 13. I love the 2XO line so I’ll probably try to get a Gem of Kentucky if I find it. Never saw any of the Harden’s Creeks in the wild. Definitely want to try the OF 1924. I still have yet to see a Stagg in the wild myself. Tried Michters 10yr at their bar it was good.

KoK is the best. So freaking good

Handy all day!!

Matt, if you find the Blade and Bow at msrp or close, I'll buy it and send you samples.

I need that stagg

Great video Matt - thanks! I just sent you an email regarding Hardin’s Creek.

In BC those WLW/Eagle Rare 17yr/Thomas Handy Rye/George T Stagg/Van Winkles bottles are only available by lottery only once a year. I had 8 People of my group sign up for it and we got nothing! Gunna be a tough go, but will try year after year. But if you get lucky enough they are MSRP which is just amazing. Good luck on your hunts! I wish I could send you a bottle from Vancouver Island, there is a local distillery that is making whisky's here that are pretty darn good. They are called "Shelter Point". I am making a trip to the states in the next yr or two, if I can bring it with me I will try to get it to you!

Thumbs up for the Power Wheels theme song along.

In July i was able to get a WLW at msrp. Probably never do it again. Great list and believe Ill never get these also at msrp.

Will I run across one? No, but my friend gave me one so it’s on my list!

Hey Matt do you actually have biceps, is that Into the AM shirt making your arms bigger than they actually are. or is it both? Either way, keep it going.

2023 KOK 🐐!! True 🦄

Bummer wish I would’ve known this, recently saw a bottle of the Angels CS bourbon, no one has the box. Also picked up a KC18 and could’ve grabbed another. I saw an ad or something about buying a bundle of all three Hardins Creeks at 375ml for like 150. I’m kicking myself for not getting it.

I have never seen the King of K even in the Atlanta secondary market, no toe mention in a store.

I feel very lucky to have snagged a single barrel Stagg today here in the PHX area.

Saw a Remus Gatsby for 250, and a 2x0 gem of Kentucky for 229 today. Didn't buy either one.

I can get a Remus Gatsby Reserve @$250+tax. Should I pick up one (2-3)??? BTW it has been on the shelf for weeks. Reluctant to buy at that price.

I was lucky to get my bottle of stagg for msrp. Got lucky at a bottle drop. It was just sitting in a box 😂😂

In Alberta, Canada I have an approximate chance of 0% in seeing any of these bottles on a shelf except for OF 1924. If it's like the other OF Whiskey Row products it should be available.

What’s the point of angels envy cask strength for that price when the single barrels are just a little under that proof for like $90?

Matt! I feel like such an idiot! I passed on the 2023 Four Roses Limited Edition Small Batch for a Weller 12. Oh well, live and learn. 😥
