Worlds Top Whiskey Taster's TOP 10 BOURBONS OF 2020 

1st......great “Big Lebowski” look with the glasses 🤣🤣🤣🤣 2nd. Thanks for the intro to Doc Swensons! I’ve never heard of it. 3rd. Great list! I seem to have similar taste as you so I really enjoyed this list! Lastly, really glad I found your channel this year. You made discovering new bourbons super fun. Cheers 🥃

Please don’t stop posting vids. Hands down the most entertaining and unique bourbon channels on the Tube.

Nothing says ‘I’m an academic, an authority figure”, like a sweater vest. All other 2020 top 10 lists can only be described as fraudulent. Awesome channel! 👍

Living in PA I don't have to worry about spending all my money because I can't buy any of these bourbons.

“It comes in a box it has to be good.” WTF!! Hilarious.

That voice, the beard, the sweater vest, the best top 10 list ever done, hands down, because it’s the best and that’s why it’s number one. Subscribed so hard...love you too.

Came here for the whiskey, stayed for Matt's sweater vest, dulcet tones, calming demeanor and "just roll with it" attitude. Your recommendations are spot on and have introduced me to many more whiskeys I didn't know to try. Thanks Matt, keep 'em coming!

Find someone who looks at you the way Matt looks at his Stagg Jr bottle ( 2:47 ). Great list!

Oh my did I laugh hard with the Walter Sobchak glasses.

Coming in as Mike Ditka as your spirit animal for this top ten.

The C920 and innmy opinion the last 4 releases of EC BP make me realize I do not need to ever pass it up if it is there and get back up bottles. Darn the endless search for tater bottles like EH Taylor BP!!

After watching this video I walked right over to my $100 bottle of ECBP C920 and poured myself a bit in celebration (only about a 1/5 left now). Kicking myself for only getting 1 bottle when 2 had been available on the shelf.

So glad that you didn't name knob creek 12 year 100 proof as the top whiskey of the year like some other publications.

I keep my own lists and was voice texting in “Kentucky Owl” when you said “Celica” and I had to go back to the video to figure out how the heck I ended up with “Kentucky Celica” on my list... Glad you had Stagg on there, that was my “luck of the Irish” purchase!

Gotta be the best "whiskey personality" on RU-vid! Keep up the good work, bro!

You may be the world’s best whiskey taster but you definitely make the world’s best whiskey review videos. Just found your channel a few days ago and I can’t get enough. Ironically, I have just gotten into high proof whiskey. Now I have a much larger list to seek out.

The sunglasses intro is classic and just screams of sophistication. I took you serious of all of 15 secs

Can't seem to get a C920 just yet, but the B520 and the A120 are friggin awesome. Stagg Jr. Batch 14 is AMAZING!

I have developed a passion for whiskey in the last 2-3 years with still much to learn. Besides being extremely informative you make this a lot of fun and have made me realize how much more I need to discover. Can’t wait to continue on this journey and taste some amazing whiskey, especially bourbon! Thank you, please keep them coming!

I can't believe how good C920 is. Great list sir, cheers!

My top five were the ones I could actually find and drink.

I really love the jazz piano background music in your videos. Just subscribed. Keep up the excellent work, friend.

Those glasses though...rocking the blue blockers

Just opened my 2nd bottle of C920.... So glad I went back and got 3 more lol.

With this new look, I dub thee Professor of the Pour!

Testing out B520 and C920 tonight. Both fantastic but so far leaning slightly toward B520

This video moved me... from team Dan to team Matt!

Hopefully you can do a list of 10 that people can actually purchase and try for themselves. Thanks, Matt, for the work you put into the channel.

Just started watching this channel. For entertainment value this channel is 2nd only slightly to the whiskey tribe. Something about this guys delivery cracks me up. Keep up the good work.

This is no lie With the exception of the owl and swinson which i just found out about because of you my top list mirrored yours. You had me with the hooters lol and then you pulled out Kentucky owl. You sir are my new whiskey guru and i wish i had found you much sooner. Great vid

"These bourbons will make me make faces I don't usually make." - I've been there before.

I’m going to save this video for future reference. Thanks for the work.

First time watching one of your videos, your review style is freaking incredible. Subscribed!!! 😂🙏🏻

Can't wait for 2023, when Bardstown will be coming to Oregon. Friggin' awesome list.

Me wishing I could get my hands on half of these ...I gotta step my game up. Cheers. Happy New Years.

Love it! Just recently found the channel. Can't wait to try some of these bourbons. Thanks Matt.

1. Malort 2. Schming of Schenschmucky 3. Old Sharter batch 69 4. Old Tub 5. Old Chub 6. Kessler 7. WTWT secret blend 8. Matt's Urine after some WLW 9. Jim Beam Orange Creamsicle 10. PBR

I don’t sub many channels but you got it buddy. Nobody reviews whiskey like you do.

You’re the real winner, Subscribed and telling all my friends. 🥃

I had to come back and confirm but I just found the world top whiskey tasters 2020 #1 bottle on a shelf in the wild! C920!

Hi, Matt! I hate it when I can't nod sagely when you give your views on a Bourbon, but sadly, most of these whiskeys were not (or are not) readily avaiIable at my liquor store in Memphis. In fact, the only one I've actually had is the Elijah Craig B520, and it is indeed mighty fine, although a little on the high proof side for my tastes, at 127. I tend to find more enjoyment and flavor when the proof is around 100 to 115. Thanks again for the view from the summit!

Solid list Matt! Couple comments... Scored my first C batch yesterday...stoked! I guessed the list before watching... Thought SamH would be higher but understand your thought process. Also, guessed cigar blend would make your list. (Could not ever find one). Again, nice job

What a fantastic video!! Thanks for sharing with your peeps Champ!

Brought home the C 920 on New Years eve, one pour and loved it. Now it's time to spend some quality time with it. Thanks Matt! And Happy new year!

"Grabbed the wrong owl" lmao

I was enamored after seeing wild Turkey Masters Keep 17 in 2020. I can't remember how I first came across the advertisements for it, but however it happened, It stuck with me. Well, as fate would have it, I was traveling on business and was invited to a hole in the wall seafood restaurant in Rockport, Texas, called "495 Chesapeake Eats". Through a series of trips to the bar, it just so happened the bartender was the owner of the place, and had an affinity for bourbon. I asked him if he had any masters keep. He chuckled and said the guy at the end of the bar was drinking it. As I proceeded to ask, he abruptly said... I have a bottle of Pappy 20 year.

The haircut is looking sharp brother!

Great Picks and Picked Up C920 for My Bday Pour Which Is Today....Cheers Brotha and Happy New Year To You and You're Family..

I found C920 nearby at $90. At another nearby store I found a different batch number for $67. I couldn’t bring myself to spend $90. May go back for the $67 bottle.

Another great taster without an old Carter or Four Gate product in their top 10... anyone out there with more Old Carter Batch 5... its terrible, send to me and I’ll recycle it for you. Love you MATT.

Respect bro Love the Elijah Craig BP! 😎

That son of a birch was funny!!!

My son walked in and asked “why is he talking like that?” 😃

Happy New Year’s ADHD Whiskey! Thank you for all the content you provided this year!

If I were a first time viewer and didn't know shi1t about bourbons, I'd probably think you were being sarcastic. LOL! Great review from the World's Top Whiskey Taster!

Happy new year to you and your family, Matt! Great list. Thanks for the entertainment in 2020! Looking forward to seeing what you do next year.

Now thats a GREAT top 10!!!

💯 % absolutely correct Matt. C920 is incredible and Arse Kickin’

My man Matt! What happened to Smoke Wagon Uncut Unfiltered along the way? You loved it in the first review... "I need more of this, I need more of this, I need more of this!" 😆

Dude!!! You put the doc swinsons in! 😍 Is that full on review still upcoming??? In Washington with tax that bottle is about $200. Our first expensive bottle and my friend and I ever went in on and we were in love. Also, no c920 in washington yet. When I see it I'm buying 3!

Great list. However, Smoke Wagon Uncut Unfiltered would have been on mine.

Your videos and that C920 turned me into a bourbon collector. Thank you.. My wallet- Hate you…

Agree on the doc swinson. Pricey, but damn good stuff.

I freakin love you man! Thanks for the great video.

It is amazing that all the top whiskies shown online by different reviewers do not like the same ones, just goes to show you every bodies taste is different, no body likes the same thing.

Fear and Loathing in Connecticut: the Bourbon Cut

Managed to secure #10 and #1 from your list. Never seen a Stagg yet, but hope to secure one in the future. Great list. 🍻 Cheers

I tried and tried to find wild turkey 17 this year. The one bottle I was disappointed not to find.

Did I lose a year? I still maintain that A119 is of the gods. Nice one Gary.

Glad to say I have all 3 in your top 3 Some tasty juice in deed

Yas! C920, the one bottle on the list I was able to buy. 🥃Cheers

Great top 10 list WTWT! Never heard of that doc swinger or whatever that fancy looking bottle was. I gotta agree completely on the #1 That C920 May be my favorite ECBP of all time. Technically for me the best bourbon I’ve had this year was released last year. I finally found a bottle of KO batch 9! That is one amazing blend! You can bet I’ll keep an eye out for batch 10 as well. I feel like all the competition in the bourbon industry now that it is allowing us to benefit with some pretty amazing pours. Can’t wait for 2021! Cheers!

Damnit. Now the price of C920 is gonna go up. Gotta go out and get some (more)!

Those glasses haha 😂

Very entertaining!

This is fucking gold!

Love the list - sorry to see that Old Carter Bourbon Batch 5 did not make the cut!

Bro... the glasses. They were the shiznit.

Discovery 4 & Doc Swinson isn't a big surprise. The same juice that's in Swinson's is the 15 yr part of Discovery 4. It's the magical mystery juice of 78.5%/13%/8.5% that's also Three Chord Whiskey Drummer, Cathead Old Soul, and some others. The only one that wasn't in the mix that surprises me is Old Carter. So many reviewers have rated that in the same class. Unfortunately I've had a chance to buy only 3 of the 10. KO is an honorable mention in availability because I can get others, just not that particular one.

Lol this was hilarious. Thanks for the input! What would you pay for that Elijah Craig barrel proof?

Great top 10! Would love/ can’t wait for top 10 Ryes, finished whiskeys, rums from “the worlds top whiskey taster”🤛🏼👍🏼--DOOO IT!!!!

Pretty much everyone across the board is singing the praises of ECBP C920. I have a nearly full bottle here....just not hitting me. I'll definitely keep trying though.

Great list Matt! C920 is so good! I need to find another bottle (or 20) but I can’t.

8:49 America 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Great list! I have a lot of the same ones on mine. Cheers brotha!

Well, I wasn't going to take your list seriously...until I saw your sweater vest, that is. I guess I have to now.

Funny video. Keep it up Matt.

Matt, while I enjoyed the content of the video, not sure what's up with the tight close up, whispering or tight shot of the seven or so bottle of whiskey on the shelves behind you, but would it would be helpful to know where you live (at least the region) and how you're able to get your hands on some of that stock. Not so easy in east Texas (nor Lexington, KY where I work) and roughly the cost range for each given your statement these are "available". Would that include the secondary market or are you just lucky to have an "in" with a local distributor or retailer?

Great list! When are the "Bring me Da Hooters" tee shirts going to be in merch? :) Happy New Year!

Great list Matt! I have most of them except 1,2,4,5,7 and 8 lol 😭

Why does it look like you’re about to scream, “Over the line!”?

Thank you for the wonderful list sir. If I can find the masters keep how much should I be paying for it? My go to bourbon is rare breed so in learning about this I’m now more than intrigued about the masters keep.

Woo-Hoo! Happy New Year!

Keeping my eyes open for a backup of the Top Bourbon of the year as crowned by the World's Top Whiskey Taster!

Great, now I have to make a Top 10 List for people to disagree with!

At the start of the video I was proud of myself for having Atleast one of these bottles (B520), and at the end of the video I felt like a friggin idiot because I’ve passed up on buying a C920 twice in the past two months😭

In the UK managed to get an EC b519. Haven't seen the c920 so was wondering how they compared.

Agreed with the Sam Houston 14 batching, I have Michigan's Batch 1 and its a little underwhelming.

Hell yeah! Number 4 is bomskizzle. It’s my number one for 2020 so far. #doc4theWin

Pausing at 1:05 to say “I can’t wait! Bring it”!👏
