The other day I was at an event and sipping whiskey. Toward the end of the evening and after a few pours I didn't feel safe to drive home so I called for an Uber. Once home, I got out my breathalyzer to see if I was indeed past the legal limit. Turns out I wasn't. So this got me thinking, how many drinks would I need to have to reach a blood alcohol level of .08? I asked Lindsey if she wanted to get drunk with me for science and she said sure, as long as it was on our 25th wedding anniversary. So, here we are....

Welcome to PART 2! We hate to use the word "regret". We really do. Someone poured their blood, sweat, and tears in crafting the whiskey found in the bottle. Not mention, they've spent a ton of cash. BUT, there are some bottles that didnt quite hit our palates the right way, or the value and price ratio didn't quite add up. Here are 10 of those bottles.

You've heard us say many times on this channel that there are a lot of great shelf available and even cheap bourbons out there that taste just as good if not better than allocated whiskeys. But you will be SHOCKED when you see the results of this blind taste test!

Randy sets up Wes and Jake with a DOUBLE BLIND. Meaning they do not know what the options are nor do they know whats in each glass. Randy of course knows the options, but doesn't know which option is in which glass.
