Was on vacation and went to a store in RI. Walked in and there was a michters barrel strength toasted rye. No price on it so I asked how much? The girl says 42.99…. Needless to say I ran out of that store with a smile on my face

Yeah I did get mine in the NEX Bethesda for $87 no tax... can't complain

I'm positive they were not priced correct but at that price buy a case

Got this at a raffle yesterday for MSRP. People picked ahead of me were clamoring for the Elijah Craig toasted barrel. When I saw that the Michter's was still available, it was a no brainer. This is probably my favorite pour of 2023.

Love this bottle. Thanks for the review. Really one of the only double barrels i've liked.

Great review! You should add the 9yr Four Gate toasted rye Mash and Journey pick for a triple bass. That bottle was epic and fits with the proof range. Cheers!

I got a predominant butterscotch note on the mid palate with the Michters Toasted Barrel Rye. That was the sweet note that I think I enjoyed.

@bradleywalden7349 9 ай бұрын

100% agree with your comparisons of the 2020 & 2023. The 2023, to me, is so sweet it makes it more difficult to cut through to those flavors like graham crackers and marshmallows that I get so easily in the 2020 version.

@ncdorito213 9 ай бұрын

Jason, very much agreed on Toasted expressions being more conplext and better balanced with rye's. Toasted Rye releases of Penelope and ASW Fiddler are no exception except that the bourbon versions are really buttery and soft, but rye spice takes it over the top. If you have an opportunity to get an ASW Toasted Rye or bourbon, don't hesitate to get both. Great thought to compare JD TBHB Rye. Char def comes thru and both great toasted ryes allowing more options for enthusiasts.and the community. Cheers on a great video.

Peerless double oak rye and the JdTB Rye vs this would be a good matchup

I 100% agree that the Jack is more smokey. They're both great but I lean towards the Michter's. I have to blind them as well. Great review!

If you add a third bottle for a tasting I suggest Sagamore Rye Double Oaked.

@jasonhunt2909 9 ай бұрын

I totally agree with your opinion on toasted/DO products. Rye’s do a better job of balancing the sweet & spiciness. FYI-they stopped making that Michter’s shirt. I just stopped into the gift shop.

Just picked up a bottle and mine is 110.4 proof. Easily in the top 3 ryes I've ever tasted. It's rare to find something this complex with all of the flavors complimenting each other.

Thanksgiving day pickup for $198.00. Everything here is marked up including Buffalo Trace for $50 for 750 ml and Blantons for $99 for 375 ml. Looks like barrel number 23G2612 at 109.8 proof on my bottle.

I was able to find this and found a week of air time really made a different. I want to blind it against Parker’s heavy char rye.

Bowmore 21 and 22 Aston Martin limited edition. Have you tried it and if it's worth it can you do a review?

@ericpevey2636 9 ай бұрын

If you can find it, don't know the availability or distribution, King's Family Distillery has a Ryeconic Toasted which is a triple oaked rye. Absolutely delicious, in my opinion. Great video as always, keep 'em coming!

That King’s “Thrice” barreled rye is absolutely divine! So lucky they are within an hour of me.

@brycedou 9 ай бұрын

Got to try this and the 10 year rye at a big tasting recently and the toasted is fantastic. Hard truth was there with a sweet mash wheated bourbon and they were tied for the best whiskeys at the event. As far as what point something stops being whiskey I think amburana is the line, I’ve never had something finished in amburana that hasn’t been completely overwhelmed by it.

@kingkrow420 9 ай бұрын

Maybe its stops being bourbon (as bourbon technically can’t be finished, thats why labels always say “finished in”), but its certainly doesn’t stop being whiskey. Whiskey is just distillate from fermented grain and then put into wooden containers. Amburana does not change any of that, as amburana is wood

@brycedou 9 ай бұрын

Well aware of what bourbon/whiskey and amburana are but thank you for the clarification. His question was just more so about what point finishing over takes the whiskey and I think amburana does that for me. I don’t like that idea of distilleries using a finish gimmick to move bad whiskey.

@mwdaniel 9 ай бұрын

Just had this with a flight at Michter's a coupe weeks ago. I prefer the 10 year or SB over the toasted, as did 3 others in our group.

I was offered one for a little below that MSRP. I asked the store manager if they had tried it and they advised no but they would like to, so we cracked it right. They know I always appreciate being able to get the allocated items so I have no problem letting them try it or fill a sample bottle. 😎🥃cheers

@@TheMashandDrum I was just referring to your comment about double oaked matching better with ryes because it's a sweet bomb with bourbon. I completely agree with you!!

@kingkrow420 9 ай бұрын

Stops becoming whiskey when it no longer hits the definition. So proof, additives, and mash ingredients. Just cause you don’t like purely sweet bourbon, that doesn’t change the definition or what other people may like😂
