Great list Matt! I like how you did this list, bottles you actually have, transparency, and that you did mention the KoK as your #1, even though circumstances kept it off the formal list.

Excellent list - JD definitely killed it in '23. Thanks for another great year of content!

Love your videos Matt! Always keep it real, fun, but never real fun. Kidding! One of the handful of creators I watch pretty much every video in its entirety! Cheers to a great 2024 for you and can't wait to see how many Barrel King bottles end up being on the 2024 list (by merit!)

Great video Matt! I got to try a lot of these, I personally was disappointed in Disco 10 but disco 11 is wild! Looking forward to getting myself a bottle of gatsby 23. Also what barrel was your M10?

Awesome list. I got the JD 10 as I did last year, but the 12, they wanted waaaay too much for it and I refuse to spend astronomical amounts anymore for even the best of whiskies. I’m ready for the hipsters to start liking kool-aid with rum in it or something because prices are getting ridiculous. I’m damn near 50 and to get a great bottle, I have to cut my arm off. Not happening.

Great list Matt, 1 missing that is a banger, Hard Truth…. Love all there products..

@archipelago93 6 ай бұрын

Excellent list. I haven’t had every one of these but I have had the JD 12 Year-not that I could find a bottle on the shelf, but I’ve seen it at a couple of bars (not just fancy whiskey bars either) and have bought a couple of pours. It’s exceptional-definitely one of the best whiskeys I’ve ever had!

Great list. Another great bourbon that not many people are talking about was Garrison Brothers Cowboy bourbon at 140.7 proof. It was just fantastic!

@audiodeluxe7647 6 ай бұрын

Heck ya Matt, my JD barrel proof rye bottle was a top 3 of 2023 for me too! (Realizing they all will differ a little yes) Honorable mention to their BiB rye release as well. For the price point & availability it’s amazing!!

@robstan2772 6 ай бұрын

Great list. Agree on the Jack 12 and Jack SBBP rye.

@krischaney9034 6 ай бұрын

Fortunate to get a pour of the JD12 at Cox's in Louisville earlier this year. My sample size isn't as large as Porter's, but it was the best pour I had all year. Cheers!

@berkeleythompson 6 ай бұрын

That JD SB BP rye is phenomenal! I was able to find two bottles. 1 in Dallas and 1 in Richmond, Va. I live a half hr from the distillery and none of the JD products in your list are anywhere near here although I did see a 10 yr for $550. I passed. Love your videos!

@troupebrewer4281 6 ай бұрын

@ADHDwhiskey with all the JD love where do you think the heritage barrel rye would've landed had you gotten a bottle?

@AnAbortiveRomance 6 ай бұрын

I was fortunate to find Jack 10yr and Jack 12yr at my local Walmart, so ended up with 3 of each. Not to mention the SBBP rye, which finally showed up at gas station mini-marts and Costco. I think you know how good the Jack SBBP tenn whiskey is, and it could have easily made the list too, depending on the barrel. My favorites of 2023 would include a bottle of Smoke Wagon Malted Rye, Stagg 22a (released in 23) and a ASW Fiddler Georgia Heartwood store pick. 2023 Thomas Handy is pretty fantastic too, glad I got 2 bottles :P

@teofilstevenson 6 ай бұрын

A good list, Bro Porter. I’ve never heard of Boulder before, gotta put on my search shoes.

@enotrilogy 6 ай бұрын

Loved your list! My additions would possibly be bottles you did not have an opportunity to purchase. My suprising finds include BTAC Eagle, Pappy 20, Four Roses LE 2023, and Birthday Bourbon. Love the Stagg a23 and the EH Taylor Cast Strength.

@graveshotx 6 ай бұрын

Lost Lantern Far Flung Bourbon and River Roots 6 year Port Finish Bourbon were the 2 best whiskies that anyone (was available for a while with shipping from Seelbachs) could of gotten their hands on but didn't. The Lost Lantern is a blend of Frey Ranch(5yr), Watershed(7yr), Boulder(6yr) and Still Austin(3yr). LL FFB had the taste of chocolate and vanilla coke for me. The River Roots is from an unspecified Kentucky distillery. The RR was a freight train of flavor with oaky chocolate and grape Jam flavors.

@cjlough 6 ай бұрын

Looks like the LL is back in stock at Seelbach’s

@realdac7899 6 ай бұрын

Got it in before the end of 2024. Nice job Matt!

@evilmcnasty69 6 ай бұрын

Loving that JD is crushing it. Hoping that their production capacity allows for the 10 & 12 year releases becoming more readily available. Also love almost all their experimental releases (the tequila one is kinda average).

@rdh5961 6 ай бұрын

Very cool for them to gift you the KoK.

@cartermayfield 6 ай бұрын

This is a very well-considered list. I agree that blinds should be a factor, but not the only factor in creating these lists. I loved JD12 this year. I still put RRSR CNF in front, but lots of good surprises this year. I am sad you did not run down a bottle of the RR13 batch 4, which I thought was really good. Batch 5… I had last night. And while it is my least favorite of the series, it’s still great! Russell’s killing it!

@jonathanwilliams1974 6 ай бұрын

Had JD12 at a Speakeasy...it was simply phenomenal. I'm chasing that bottle for sure as well as Camp Nelson F. I have Camp Nelson C and it's awesome.

@jacksmith2315 6 ай бұрын

I was dying for JD 10&12 but never got either. I could have got the twice barreled, but i tried it and wasnt a fan. Big fan of lucky 7, i have the holiday toast and the frenchman. Great bottles. The only proprietor i seen was a 6yr so i didnt get it.

Awesome to see I have a few of them ...lol.. Remus Gatsby, Russel's rickhouse cnf, JD 10 &12, barrel proof rye, michter's 10 rye, and stagg. They are all awesome!

@jhud8853 6 ай бұрын

That King of Kentucky is so good. Had it at a hotel last month and it’s now my grail bottle.

@ranman1959 6 ай бұрын

I liked it better when the bourbon flippers turned their noses up at JD products. JD has been killing it with special releases since at least 2018.

@stevefromchicago8277 6 ай бұрын

Rules seem kind of loose, kind of like Matt Madness. But seriously great list 👍. Glad to see both the ECBP A123 and C923 on the list. I actually prefer the A123, if people are having a hard time picking up C923 I highly recommend the A123. I was lucky to have a pour of the JD BP rye at a restaurant about 132 proof and agree that was my fav rye of the year but I’m unlikely to see a bottle.

@Whiskey_BS 6 ай бұрын

By some strange freak of whiskey nature, I scored two bottles of JD12 last year and a bottle of JDSBBPR. I agree that both are fantastic. That said, I don’t have many of the rest of your list. 😢

I see 13th colony double oaked making several lists this year. Is their regular bourbon worth picking up also?

@twentyfiveyears5010 6 ай бұрын

II'll give you my take on their "regular bourbon." 13th Colony apparently sources from MGP. My belief is that their Southern Bourbon ("regular bourbon") is a very good expression of MGP's 21% rye mashbill. If you like MGP's 21% rye mashbill (I am a big fan) you will like this.
