Just getting into watching this but wanted to say that I absolutely love Two Brewers! They’re making some phenomenal whiskies up there. I recently had the chance to tour the distillery, and have several of their releases on my shelf. Definitely one of the leaders, in Canadian whisky imo!!! Another great video! Cheers 🥃

I like keeping my options open and having a bunch of different bottles open lol I’ve also only been into whisky for about 1 1/2 years, and even in that short time I’ve seen the price of Mcallan 12 go up lol 😂

I'm late to commenting, but I wanted to comment on fruit flies. Yes, they do get drunk! A lab we collaborated with did experiments to see how different mutations affected fruit flies' alcohol tolerance. They discovered a mutation that made them very susceptible to passing out in the presence of very low ethanol concentrations...and named the strain 'cheapdate'. (Fly biologists have notoriously warped senses of humour, and it was the 1990s; I don't think this would happen now!)

I just start colected

Straight from the barrel is definitely my fav out of the standard 4, then the regular/original. I try to get them both when the price is right.

So many good Canadian Rye options out there right now!!! Last Straw and SOV would definitely be two of the top. Hansen Distillery in Edmonton makes fantastic stuff too!

We need Shelter Point and Two Brewers to throw their hats into the 100% Rye ring.

Guys! Do you not know about Sons of Vancouver. Their Realms is about the best Rye I have had.

I tried all the solist ranges minus this one and bouron solsit. All of them are 90 plus and great value for money for the punch they deliver. Thanks for the great video .

Canadian Rye…. Does the “good stuff” make it to the USA?

I definitely would've thought the order to be obvious ... but clearly i was wrong. I would've thought Realms/LS for and 2 then Gretzkys and then the Lot 40. You guys should do a SoV rundown. Whike i don't have the Realms of Rye like you guys, i've git two others really hoping for 3 soon. I would like to see Canadian Rye go up against Ryelaw the Scotch Single grain Rye. Definitely missed a Stillhead Rye in this matchup, i think the Strath pick would compete for top spot.

No on the added Port. I got shit from Livermore for suggesting it on Instagram. Of course that does not mean they did not leave a port puddle in the barrels when they drained them Don't you know that you are supposed to go crazy when the results are revealed like you just found out the truth of the JFK assassination.

Johnny Waker hates America and free speech. If you buy it, you are a anti-American scumbag.

Yujiro hanma approves

The best talisker I drank so far. Win the game easy!! Ardbeg 8 second place of course, Kilkerran then lagavulin 😉

Great idea for a head to head guys! I don't get the fascination with the Lagavulin 8, I think it's really harsh, possibly a rushed job and just not enjoyable. Similar thoughts go for the Kilkerran as well 😬 Maybe I just don't enjoy 8 year old whiskies 🤷‍♀ My lineup would be Ardbeg, Talisker, Laga and Kilkerran. Cheers fellas 🥃 Ps. the struggle of just standing infront of your bar trying to decide what to have is so real! Nonetheless, it's a good problem to have 😅

JW Black is supposedly 30-40 Scotches blended. I seldom get the same taste from bottle to bottle. I buy Grand ol Parr now. Taste as good and $10 cheaper per bottle.

A great flight for comparison, guys. Not surprised by the winner in this group, which I often notice getting bumped up into comparisons with its neighbor distilleries' 10 year olds. Cheers!

The best is no color and not chill filtered

Some profits from provincial liquor stores have to go back into the healthcare system. Alcohol-related disease costs a fortune to treat in hospital. Sad. We don't need booze far more available in grocery and convenience stores. Alcohol is already a huge issue for many people. Just my opinion.

Huge peat head here!! lol!!😂

Try the latest Offerman! Fabulous!

Green label. More complex taste at a decent price. The original gold label was better than the gold reserve

Hey Jeremy, did you spend the night? ❤🧡🤎

Solid LCBO rant gents. Haven’t bought a bottle of scotch from them in ages. Other 5 year bottles: Lochlea 5, Ardnahoe 5 and Raasay.

KK8YO for me as natural and non chill filtered.

Green label is 80 bucks in ohio its my fav whiskey id give it a 90

Thanks for the tasting and several interesting disgressions, gentlemen. Not an official 5 but perhaps a ring-in for when you do later compare those peated 5s?: Kilkerran HP. You should try tasting those 5s all blind, too--but maybe you already intended such? Not a problem/necessary with these 8s. Just a suggestion. If abv's an issue then you could "normalise" the higher ones with a few drops. Cheers!

I have lost the plot. What is the current LCBO sucks ticker score (minus 85?). Here in Scotland I’m consistently embarrassed by the supermarkets - a million permutations of Jura. There was probably a peated 8 year old in there.

I'll take bottled water...sorry, I'll see my snobby self out. But really...not a fan of these. Haven't hard to ardbeg to be fair. Unless you do an early 8 year KK which were oldly much better than the recent ones.

I think the first committee release was 21 years old and a few had vintages but most of the recent ones have no age statement. And I do think the 8 year old came out before the wee beastie in Europe

Oh no… no Benromach Peated Sherry. No age statement but confirms 8 years on the bottle in the description. Benromach is so good at a young age.

Where to buy them in Toronto? I cannot find the place

Good review Jeremy. Although I have to admit I've always steered clear of them due to price.

I discovered whisk(e)y About two years ago and I sipped Redbreast 12 years in Dublin, and I really like it. It tastes smooth and soft, round, and not the harsh bite that some of the whiskies have that I tasted so far.

Always check out your channel. On sale in Alberta this week for $55 . Must buy now. Own or tried a lot of Glen Scotia's except this one

I drink Jack's Old # 7 pure and not on the rocks...

Boveda says no...because of less potential sales 😂

I get a white chocolate cream soda note that I can’t find in any other whiskey in that price so I had to give it a 88 score for me!! Cheers

About the 15th time watching this video. I had a question about a cigar wrapper. @2:42 the bottom left corner. Its a gold or brown wrapper with a grey man wearing a hat. What brand and cigar is that. Had one a while ago and for the life of me cannot remember the name.

Nice review, Jeremy. I keep hearing about this one ... Cheers!

Tried this one last night and very much enjoyed it! Picked it up from Costco for $100. Worth it!

This one’s definitely on my shopping list, along with the Portsoy

Great review, thanks. I tried both the Sandend and Portsoy releases; I would give Portsoy the edge - a bit more interesting with a subtle hint of peat, but both are very competent IMHO. Cheers

Thank you for the great review! Where do you shop in Toronto? I'm from Toronto and I usually get the Bolivar Petit Cronas for $30.

Is blue label also colored?

I’m also very particular with sherry and peat but I love the UIG!!

Love this Benromach!!

Two whiskies I haven't tried yet, which is shocking considering my personal scotch collection is around $40,000 USD worth so far.

It's almost dinner time and I just lost my appetite. You have to warn people before displaying a Jack Daniel's, it can ruin one's appetite and/or will to live.
