British Blokes Try Kentucky Bourbon | Office Blokes Try 

I live in Kentucky right in the heart of the Bourbon trail. Need to see an Office Blokes try a trip to Kentucky and do the Bourbon trail. There's tours that take you to all the big distilleries and you get absolutely plastered trying all their different bourbons.

Buffalo Trace is my favorite “everyday” whiskey. Thanks for all the content today, I’ve been watching you blokes for the past two hours

You probably don't know this, but the three whiskies you bought from the bottle shop, are all from the same distillery.

Eagle Rare is my absolute favorite bourbon. Wonderfully smooth

Bartender for 15 years. All three of those are wonderful.

Awesome video! All three bourbons are under the same parent distillery, Buffalo Trace. Also the warmth you feel when drinking bourbon is called the “Kentucky Hug.” Cheers fellas!

Maker’s Mark and Woodford Reserve are also a must try.

So funny to watch you guys! Lol. 1. Bourbon doesn’t have to be made in Kentucky! Just the USA 2. Jack Daniels meets the requirements for bourbon, they just call themselves Tennessee whiskey 3. All three of those bottles are produced at the same distillery, Buffalo Trace distillery 4. Eagle rare would be single barrel, they just don’t clean out the pipes between barrels, so each Eagle rare bottle can slightly vary. 5. The Weller IS different from the the other two, the mashbill is corn/wheat/malted barley as opposed to corn/rye/malted barley. Great video and always nice to see new people try bourbon, a product that I am so passionate about. Cheers guys!

Glad to see how far the reviews channel and the try channel have come. The production of both has gone up so much, you guys look like pros. Keep up the great work blokes!

Folks from the UK smirk and giggle when they hear there is a Knob Hill Bourbon. ;)

I'm sipping a Woodford reserve while watching. Delicious.

My favourite bourbon is probably Bulliet. It’s smooth but has that Smokey, vanilla warm kick to it. Woodford reserve is nice too and you can’t go wrong with Jim Beam for price.

As a whiskey man, this has been a joy to watch.

The devilish smile from Daz after he sipped the 3rd bourbon was top notch 😂

Good choices, I usually have all 3 in my liquor cabinet at all times. Eagle Rare is probably my favorite of those 3 and my go to everyday bourbon.

All neck pours. If you wait a month and do this again, I'd be curious to see if you think they've changed at all for you. You can never go wrong with Buffalo Trace. You never know what you're going to get with Eagle Rare. My fav everyday sipper is Russel's Reserve Single Barrel; if you try it you won't be disappointed and it's not crazy expensive. If you want smooth caramel brown sugar and fruit - so smooth it's like drinking cream... Bardstown's Discovery Series.

Buffalo Trace and Eagle Rare are both made by Buffalo Trace at the same facility, but with different barrel selections.

Try American moonshine or Everclear grain liquor it’ll singe eyebrows

Hahaha it doesn't matter what kind of burbon you're drinking, the third glass is ALWAYS the best 😆

You picked a bunch of winner! Buffalo Trace and 1782 are favs. The Jim Beam line are all perfectly good, affordable bourbons. I've even been to Bardstown KY to visit the Buffalo Trace distillery. It was a happy day.

Here goes... Nut-shelled: Bourbon is whisky that is made with water containing high levels of limestone. That's what the main difference between whisky and bourbon is. Kentucky is one of the few places with a limestone content high enough in the water to produce bourbon. I think Scotland may be another place that meets that criteria as well. I prefer bourbon over whisky but both are good.

Hey blokes I'm sure you know by now but Buffalo makes Weller as well. It's a very high requested bourbon. It's very good I'm glad you guys tasted it and enjoyed it

Great video gents. You picked 3 excellent intro Bourbon whiskey's. The Weller is my favorite of the 3 but Buffalo Trace is more available in my area.

Loving my glass of Four Roses while watching you guys.

A lot of people overlook bourbon in favor of scotch, and, they're REALLY missing out. A good bourbon is absolutely heavenly.

Its pretty funny that you can easily purchase those 3 bottles in the UK. I live in the US (Pennsylvania) and if I'm lucky I can find Buffalo Trace once every two weeks if I looked hard enough at our local state run liquor stores. It sells so fast they don't even put it on the shelves, they keep it behind the counter and you have to ask for it. Eagle Rare I can find maybe once every two months, it's much harder to find. And I will never be able to purchase anything Weller ever in Pennsylvania, it is very allocated. But you picked 3 really good bourbons to try for the first time. You guys are correct, bourbon is much sweeter then scotch. Bourbon by law has to be at least 51% corn (mash bill) and the corn makes the whiskey taste sweeter. Bourbon also has to be aged in a new (unused) charred American oak barrel, that also imparts sweetness and bourbons typical mahogany like color. Cheers Gentleman

Cheers, lads. Please remember two things: All Bourbons are whisky, but not all whiskies are bourbon 2. The difference between Kentucky Bourbon and Tennessee bourbon are pretty large, and I personally fall on the favor side of the Kentucky Bourbon ten out of ten times

Cool channel! Subbed, we do this all the time at home. Cheers from Las Vegas!

Fun fact Weller is made out of another FAMOUS Bourbon Pappy Van Winkle. The story is that the recipe that makes Weller 12 year didn't quite make the cut for Pappy Van Winkle Lot B 12 year. That's why many say it as close to Pappy as you can get for a whole lot less. Also why Weller is just as hard to find as Pappy because stores can't keep them on their shelves long enough.

Ex-wifes, parents away..17yr old drank a bottle of Johnny Walker red label...bad for 2 days never touched whiskey since and I'm 50 In a few weeks time.

This might be the new venture of taste channel that might kick your views off the charts. Keep it going lads

For blokes who don't drink whiskey, those are legit pours. Bravo, you! All three are delicious and rarely found in my local ma and pa. Weller is different in that wheat is its second grain. You might want to branch out to Old Forester 1920, Wild Turkey 101 or Rare Breed, or Four Roses Small Batch for Round Two.

If that Go Pro battery thing begins to annoy you (like it did me) you can pop the little door off easily and then use them while they're plugged in. Works brilliantly.

Woodford double oaked, and Michters are my favs. Add just a couple drops of water to each glass to bring out the flavor.

Those are good but not my favorites. The Bourbon Trail stretches quite a ways. Would love to see you try some others. As a KY native, I really love Woodford, Elijah Craig, Four Roses and Willett's. You guys would love the Bourbon Festival in Bardstown, held every year in September. If you ever make it, I'd come all the way from Ashland to drink with you men. Enjoy. You've just scratched the surface.

These are literally three of my faves. Reasonably priced as well. Cheers from Chicago!

So funny to see you guys get all silly and giggly.

Is it bad that I find an unusual amount of joy watching people drink just because I do not lol

Excellent choices. All three are "buy on sight" in our house.

I live about 35 miles (56 km) from Buffalo Trace, and I have taken the tour of the distillery several times. I am not originally from Kentucky, but I consider bourbon to be the finest whiskey in the world. My reason for saying so is that you can buy bourbons that range from 80 proof to 140 proof or higher. The grains used are corn (51% min), rye and malted barley OR the rye (in a very few cases) is replaced with wheat. Weller has wheat in place of rye. No other ingredients are permitted. There are other restrictions, but I will allow you to search this up yourselves. Personally, I prefer the bourbons with a high rye content, so here are my suggestions for you: Knob Creek (the only Jim Beam product that I like), Four Roses Single Barrel, Bulleit, Wild Turkey Rare Breed (barrel proof), Russell's Reserve (single barrel), Fighting Cock, and, last but not least, Evan Williams Bottled in Bond (100 proof).

Funny. As I watch you blokes sip on bourbon, which I do like, I am currently sipping on Scotch. We can all enjoy the drinks that are offered on the other side of the Atlantic.

Woodford County Kentucky native here. A small tip that helped me alot when sniffing for flavor notes was to slightly open and breathe through your mouth as well as your nose when inhaling the aromas. Great to see people trying and enjoying bourbon around the world.

Cheers from the east side of Washington State, Bourbon chased by beer is also my go to! Love the channels love the content!

Buffalo Trace is the best bourbon distillery in the States. Trace, Eagle, Weller, Blantons, Stagg, Pappy it's the bourbon murderers row 🤣

Don’t have any bourbon to drink for this video so my rum will have to do. Cheers fellas!

From Kentucky. Buffalo Trace is great. Weller’s is a fav. Bourbon 30 is a hidden gem. Definitely try some bourbon 30. We love our bourbon. Great video guys.

As a KY girl I really enjoyed this video. ❤️ I wish I could send y’all some shine though. 😞 talk about warming ya up from the inside out. 🙃

Bourbon tasting tips from a native Kentuckian: Always smell before sipping (a couple drops of water helps to fully release the bouquet), hold it on your tongue for a few seconds & inhale before swallowing, and having a bite of premium dark chocolate before tasting a different bottle will cleanse your palate. Doing these things will help you experience the full flavor profiles. My go-to bourbons are Four Roses Small Batch and Woodford Reserve Double Oaked. Cheers!

The warmth going down we call The Kentucky Hug

Perfect to watch after work lol got the johnnie walker on deck, cheers guys🇺🇸🇬🇧🤜🏻🤛🏻

The common theme was I was expecting more smoke. Bourbon is casted in freshly charred Oak barrels. Because of this they still will give off the oak taste. When the bourbon is done those barrels are shipped overseas and filled with scotch by then most of the oak taste is gone and you can only get a nice Oak flavor from really old scotch.

Just looked up that Weller Special Reserve bourbon here... cheapest I could find was 120€ for 0,75l bottle. big sob! Also, Dave had a green cap at some videos, what the one with 3 trees on it's logo. What brand was it? loved it.

Lol seeing that you guys finished those whole things vs the length of this video you guys are going to be knackered by the end if you suck in 3 shots of whiskey that quickly lol.

Awesome choices! Another great one is Four Roses!!

As Pedantic79 has said all three of those bourbons are from the same distillery, Buffalo Trace Distillery in Frankfort Kentucky. Buffalo Trace and Eagle Rare (10yr) are from the same Mash but are at different age and the aging varies as does the level in the aging warehouses. To make the best bourbons you must carefully control the temperatures and timing and season exposure. The Weller is of a different mash as you guys noted being more wheated. But also of different age and aging process. If you liked the Weller you should try the 12 year. If you liked the Eagle Rare 10 yr. you should try the 17yr. The Buffalo Trace bourbon is 6 to 8yr. and is the distilleries base bourbon. I grew up near there in Lexington, Ky and am very familiar with many of the Kentucky distilleries. If you guys come to the States you should definitely do the bourbon trail as Stephen Proffitt says. I like the 10yr Eagle Rare myself. Although any of their bourbons except for Buffalo Trace are often hard to come by. The best I've had is George T. Stagg but I've never had the opportunity or deep enough pockets to try a Van Winkle. Do a music react to Home Free doing Man of Constant Sorrow.

Wisconsin also has the most pubs/bars per capita of any American state. There's literally one on every corner in some down town areas. Incidentally they also have the highest alcoholism rate. Who would'a thunk?!

Glad to see you enjoyed these three Buffalo Trace products! Funny thing is that these used to be easily available here in the states a few years ago, now they are all pretty hard to find. The only one you may see is actual Buffalo Trace. Eagle Rare is the most expensive of the three at retail ($34 in Maine) and is aged 10 years and close to a single barrel product. The Weller is actually the cheapest at around $25, however because of its popularity it is going for around $100 on the secondary market! All three also make a killer Old Fashioned cocktail.

Loved watching yall loosen up

This may be getting close to better than the reactions, but both are just the best! Looking forward to Cinco...with the Tequilas try to get some of Ron White's "Number Juan" tequila...oooooh my God...so good! And 3 or 4 Mexican dishes to eat and get drunk with! Love you guys so much!

Booze is just fun. There's SO many different whiskeys and stuff and sometimes knowing the story of how it's made or history of the distillery or whatever is interesting. Plus there's so many different flavors and literally thousands of slight differences to so many different kids of whiskey, let alone all the other boozes and beers and what have you. Plus who doesn't love drinking with your mates, lol.

If you get a hankering to, try Jim Beam Red Stag. It's a black cherry liqueur infused with Jim Beam

Great job as usual. A suggestion, office blokes try Irish Whisky. Tullomore Dew. Delicious l. Keep up the graft office bloke's, it's appreciated 😎

where i live we tap the the bar with the bottom of the glass to cheers the bar as well

The main difference between bourbon n whiskey is that the mash bill has to be 51% corn and rest is determined by the distiller for bourbon. Whiskey can be whatever. All those you tried are all buffalo trace products. For Weller try the antique 107. To me Blantons is similar to ER. Would recommend the stagg or the George T Stagg. But stagg is good in itself. E H Taylor is also probably my favorite. All I mention are Buffalo Trace products.

In Canada we call a shot of whiskey and a beer, a "boiler maker". I sure got wasted of them one New Years eve! Can't do that anymore, enjoy guys! Cheers!

Three excellent choices to drink. Eagle Rare is my favorite whiskey that's relatively easy to find.

when i lived in the texas hill country in a house with no heat i would drink whiskey on those freezing nights by the fire pit so i always think of cold weather when i drink it now too

enjoying your vids guys. Can't wait to this Corona shitshow to end and go to Manchester to drink a Stella with the Office Blokes. As a Belgian I'm obliged to suggest a tryout of all our Belgian Trappist beers (Orval, Westmalle, Rochefort, Westvleteren ->might be hard to get and Chimay). You know what guys, give me a list of your preferences (dark, blond, trippel) and I'll send you a box. Keep up the good work guys.

I love Eagle Rare. I don’t know of anyone else who does this, but get a thick sweet American stout and add a little bourbon to it. My god it is fantastic.

Picked some great samples there. BT is a go-to for me. Fantastic stuff and really affordable.

I'd be happy enough to watch you blokes get pissed and revel in the conversation😆

When popping the top of a bourbon bottle, I can smell the police report.

Have not had Weller. I do enjoy Buffalo Trace. Eagle Rare is a top 5 bourbon for me.

🙋🏻‍♀️ I’m from Wisconsin... I wish I was taste testing with you!🥃

Corn, barley and rye aka bourbon, scotch and rye whiskeys. Being one who first drank in Canada, rye whiskey is nearly all there is. Try the rye's next. Crown Royal (the Special Reserve is worth the premium price), Pendleton is nice, Canadian Mist, Seagram's Seven and McNaughton's blend would be a good go. I prefer rye in a mixed drink with a col or, in a pinch or for a change, a ginger ale or lemon-lime soda (like 7Up or Sprite). A favorite in Canada as a bar staple is "Seven & Seven" aka Seagram's with 7Up. My favorite... Crown Royal & Pepsi.

Jamaican margaritas; Milagro Silver, Gran Gala triple sec, and lime juice... 3oz, 1oz, 1/2 oz, respectively

Special reserve usually means it was barreled longer. By the look of it the Weller's is probably 4-8 years older

Kentucky boy here loving my first Office Blokes Try video

Aye! You’ve ventured into my world here, gentlemen. We do 3 things better than anyone else here in Kentucky; 1.Thoroughbred Horses and Horse Racing.(see Kentucky Derby) 2. College Basketball. (Even our directional(eastern, western) university’s and small colleges regularly make runs into the championship tournament) 3. Lastly but definitely not least Bourbon whiskey. Enjoyed this video gentlemen, keep them coming.

How did you get a bottle of Eagle Rare all the way over there!? I live in the South (US), and I can't find a single bottle anywhere!

Awesome vid! Bourbon is my go-to, my favorites are Woodford Reserve and Angel’s Envy.

And bourbon is made with malted oats with molasses, that's why it is so sweet and dark.

I've got a bottle of Buffalo Trace on my shelf behind me. Solid whiskey. Drinking a glass of St. Lawrence Spirits, Captain's Flask atm. Fantastic.

Have you done videos for Irish whiskey and scotch yet? You could do separate videos for each and then a video comparing each guys favorite bourbon vs. favorite Irish whiskey vs. favorite scotch. I love comparing different types/brands of alcohol!

Makers Mark Kentucky straight bourbon whisky is what I use to make my home made vanilla extract....so smooth .. one you should try.

Eagle rare baby!!!! Great stuff yall got there. I always keep eagle and BT on hand!.

I’m sober now (unfortunately, whiskey is the key to the door that unlocks all of my demons 😈) but Weller was my go to when I was drinking. Weller with one cube of ice is fantastic. Now I live vicariously through videos like this. Well done, fellas. You’ve kept me on the wagon another day 😜

I’m from the town that makes Makers Mark and many other big bourbons. There’s probably 20 different bourbon factories in a 30 mile radius of me. There’s a lot you guys should try

"When" as the cup overflows!

Eagle Rare is made by Buffalo Trace Distillery.

Funny that Daz says that about havin' it as a chaser. That's exactly what my dad does. XD

Why do I get the feeling Daz has a lead on a Mariachi band for Cinco de Mayo? I guess time will tell. Another great video! Cheers Blokes!🥃

Three Brands same distillery. The sweetness that your getting is in fact what makes it bourbon. Its made with Kentucky Limestone water. That licorice hint is in fact the rye content of the bourbon. The higher the rye content the more spiced it tastes.

My friends who are from Slovakia and Bulgaria have often told me that when they are enjoying their drinks and they are around a larger table, they will often gently tap their drinks to the rim of the table to make connections with the other people who are too far away during cheers 🍻😀 tap on the rim of the table and say contact to show you are able to make connections with your friends at the other end of the table 😀

I'm drinking right along with you here in Canada 🇨🇦 😏 but I'm drinking Crown Royale 👑. Beautiful smooth Canadian Rye.

Love the buffalo trace ... all great choices .. not a one bad

You guys need to come to Kentucky and take a tour of our distillery's they are cool.

The only podcasts that come to mind where they advertise and drink Buffalo Trace is Whiskey Ginger and Rogan.

That loud intro scared the shit outta my dog. Ha. Glad to see you guys producing new content on a different channel.

Two of my faves are Nikka Whiskey, and Skrewball Peanut Butter Whiskey. Give those a shot.
