Officially the world's best whisky - meet the Whyte and Mackay 30 year old whisky

[lrbblumenthal3]

hmm hmm hmm hm hm hm hm hmm therty years old!

[MrKittyyy2012]

Lol! This Scotsman knows how to enjoy his whiskey.:)

[Markt666]

this is a very strange hobby to have... "ITS 30 YEARS OLD!!! WEUW!!!..." who gives a fucking shit?

[texlad04]

@Markt666 Well, there are some things (port, whisky, etc.) that take most of their character from the aging process. Literally, the wooden barrel imparts the flavor into the basically neutral distillate. In the case of a port, vintage champagne, or a scotch whisky, you would NOT want to drink the product when it's new. It would be terrible. But give that liquid 5, 10, or 20 years, and you will totally enjoy it.

[Markt666]

@texlad04 Terrible how? You get drunk and fall down... Its a drug ffs. To say you want the taste of it is a psychological error in your head, you want the buzz. and you think its getting better from how expensive the product are.. true story

[texlad04]

@Markt666 Let me respectfully disagree. You are describing alcohol dependency, but that doesn't mean that the products aren't flavorful. While it may seem incredible to you, research has shown that fine wines, for example, contain small particles imparting genuine flavor. Even people who state that they dislike whisky (and avoid it) can be given samples of fine bottles that they really like. I have proved this many times.

[kagemurai]

way too agressive and too fast to really enjoy the whiskey. He`s just advertising and not very good i must say

[texlad04]

@kagemurai Are you really saying that Richard P. is not very good? He is probably the finest whisky blender on the planet. He is the creator of notable products like the incredible Balvenie Tun 1401, Sheep Dip "Old Hebridean", etc., in addition to the W&M range.

[kagemurai]

@texlad04 well, I´m not saying he is not very good. Just saying that he should probably calm a little bit down. To me he seems to be too agressive to advertise something like whisky. Just my personal opinion. I didn´t say anything about his whisky creations and I can´t for I never tried one of his.

[carvingonextacy]

I would like to ask your expert opinion on bottle color.

Will a darker or black colored glass bottle better protect the fine crafted spirits inside from any possible ultra violet light / other light causing degradation to the spirits. Air in a bottle... oxidation greatly effects spirits of any quality. Can light pollution negatively effect high, delicate, elegant spirits inside of a bottle?

Thank you in advance.

I'm A big fan! Keep up the good work Richard.

[dannyh7676]

top fella and sure knows his stuff.

[vigil12348]

Why through it on the floor, while you can decant it into a second glass and leave aside to enjoy later, for a third or fourth dram?

[TheVerySpecialThommy]

hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm

[TheVerySpecialThommy]

pisswater.

[Slears]

I wonder why he doesn`t toss the Whisky on the Ground like he does with all the other ones..

[smittymp44]

This guy knows his shit, I want to buy my whiskey from him. HAHA

[DrDurdenSoapCo]

Love this man. Always a performance.

[MehmetEminCeylan]

That moment when you notice there is a dead guy in the back.

[whiteskull20]

this is the funniest thing i have ever seen in my life, what a fucking plank he sounds.....

meanwhile in africa..

[krssnoop]

@masterblenderrichard do you smoke cigars too?

[GIenfiddich]

[sparkynight73]

hm hmmm hm hmmmmm hm hmmmmmm hm hmmmmmmmmmm hm hmmm well at least it wasn't spat out.....my girl friend should take note!

[Rivannous]

So that's the one you drink with pepsi and a slice of lemon?

[shoetookme]

guy looks like hitler

[bsam20uk]

Oh dear, I would be dangerous doing that job. But he is fine at it.

[InspiredYouViewer]

Chug! Chug! Chug! Chug! Chug!!!! Lets funnel it!

[colenbrak]

@InspiredYouViewer LMFAO

[InspiredYouViewer]

This is definitely potential SNL parody.

[elaforge]

Don't give it to her! 

[BaDDbOiiGangin]

You didn't throw this one on the ground. Is it to expensive or to good?

[CliveGains80s]

did he say 30y grains in this blend.wow. 

[Wayfarer8]

200$ in Scotland, 400-500$ in Russia ((((

[thunderheart226]

how often are u drunk Richard? dont tell me you dont  get drunk ha

[DralnuduLouvre]

"Don't give it to a mother in law." LOL'ed xD

[Jamesmcintyre1994]

Mmmmmmm mmm mmmmmmmm mmm mmmmmmmm

[MrJasonSmarts]

Lol at the orgasm after each sip :D

[Spawn22I22]

but will it blend?

[TheSuperFatCat]

Haha, I like how this is the only whisky you do not throw on the floor..

[CloserEnd]

You might not agree, but I actually like the W&M 22yo more than this 30yo - the 30 is incredibly smooth and pleasant, yes, but I think the 22 has more "character". I'm a single malt drinker, but as far blends go W&M is my favorite (except the Special, which is meh, but I never liked cheap blends): the 13yo is okay, the 19yo is good, and the 22yo is great - but the 30yo falls somewhere between the 19 and 22 on my scale (still very good, but not quite great). Haven't tasted the 40yo, though.

[CloserEnd]

@CloserEnd I have to add that I've tasted the 30 only once and from a bottle that had apparently been opened a while earlier, so perhaps some of its strength had been lost, who knows. I guess I should try it again, but the price discourages me - I'll rather just buy another bottle of the 22.

Still, I wish you'd make one more blend between the 22 and 30, perhaps somewhere in the 25-27yo range, which I suspect could be my personal "pinnacle" of W&M (to both my tastebuds and my wallet, that is).

[mcluvin28x]

you make the whisky sound good ahaha

[MrJkjkhd]

dont share it with mother in law... hahahaa. I agreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee­e

[daniel121212121212]

I've bought a crystal spirit decanter for my whisky. Though, I heard that the whisky's flavour might be adversely affected . Are decanters a NO for whisky?

[bighands69]

This whisky is one of the best medium price ranges.

Its cost about £170 and it taste pretty impressive. It should be a goal to be in every collector possession.

[HitmAN13371337]

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

hmhmhmmmhm hm h mh mh hm h mhh mhm

AHAHAHAHAHAH SECOND TASTE mhm hmh Mhm hm hm

ahaha

[Neroscot]

To drink a perfect perfume...gives health !

[MrFuckumoma]

[MrFuckumoma]

[IIIMAVER1CK]

[DarkwinteR11]

That nose was totally made to smell whiskey.

[statusquorules]

My dad had a canadian friend who came over during the war as he was a pilot and he seen Scotland and decided never to leave (deed now at 74). I met him when I was late 17 and he always drank Whyte & Mackay! I bought a bottle when I was 18 and loved it and its true, nothing else compares! They finally got stock of the thirteen here at Tesco few months ago and loving it ever since!

I got a bottle of 30 year old now thanks to the guys :) so its gonna be a very merry christmas :) best present ever!

[chrish12345]

he didn't throw this one on the floor...

[Cougar139tweak]

I wish this guy wasn't so in love with himself but congrats on the award anyway, Get the E150 out though, admit the mmm mmm 1:30 thing was priceless. the dalmore looks more like maple syrup then whisky.

[MrSamgrant5]

join the group i created on facebook - "we love Richard Patterson, the man, the legend!" . need to begin some appreciating for this man!

[dougpoon]

OK I almost spit out my dram when he got to 1:30...especially during the "second taste" hahahaha. I think I'm going to have to taste my scotch like that from now on, sound effects included.

[nitayhls]

I do love the 30 yo but I think you did a fantastic job on the 40 yo, which I like the most. Right now im looking for the 58 yo Dalmore, Im wodering if it can beat the 40 yo W&M.

Anyway, keep up the woderful word and I hope I'll have a chance to drink the 64 yo some day. --- Tyler

[Aragiss]

You are having sex with that whisky :D

[uk10]

i love whisky its all i drink when i go on a night out clubbing and i always go on the doubles cause single whisky is for pussys

[odmcarp]

richard, what do you think about glenriddich?

[dramdaddy]

ok ok - enough teasing - I'm buying a bottle of the WM30

[transgalaxy1]

mister paterson, please launch a cheap smoky peat whisky in india of common people of india.I can spent only Rupee 78 which means 1pound for 180 ml bottle.

[transgalaxy1]

mister paterson, please launch a cheap smoky peat whisky in india of common people of india.I can spent only Rupee 78 which means 1pound for 180 ml bottle.which in india called quarter or nip.i like your presentation very very much.some time I deep a burning wood in a glass of whisky to get smoky flavour.But i know it may not be healthy.

[slaughtered777]

@transgalaxy1 Oh you're kidding me. Im from India and i dont see how you cant find decent whiskey for Rs.600-1000+. Even the lowest end whiskey is 200 for a bottle. If you want to do ridiculous things with your whiskey, you're just stupid.

[sjjdiienno1]

i know nothing about whiskey...but what would be a good "beginner" whiskey to start out with........i blame your video for peaking my interest in wanting to enjoy whiskey instead of doing shots haha

[mercifulkyle]

Right around the second taste, I thought he was going to start drinking the whole bottle and get wasted.

[redcoat604]

But why was the bottle left uncorked? He just ruined the entire contents of that fine scotch.

[masterblenderrichard]

@redcoat604 I finished the bottle after filming! Shared it with the film crew.

[TerminatorX120]

Hm hmhm hmhmmm hmhmh hmmh mhm 1:30 ;)

[masterblenderrichard]

@TerminatorX120 I like your style. SLAINTE!

[sonyglue]

he better finish all those glasses

[masterblenderrichard]

@sonyglue Don't worry about that!

[beefcake209]

This guy's full of shit

[masterblenderrichard]

@beefcake209 Am I? Strange, there was me thinking that with more than 40 years of experience in whisky, I knew what I was talking about too.

[Cougar139tweak]

@masterblenderrichard I sent this vid to my mother and law, :) truly you love what you do, keep up the good work, but get some of that E150 out of my Dalmore, I beg you, I tire of hearing these critics cry foul about it!!

Ice in your drink? grab the barman - and chuck it away!!!! :) never better advice:)

[irishboy2k10]

@masterblenderrichard hahaha,i know anyway you know what your talking about i have been to a few whiskey spots in scotland.by the way i was wondering if you have come accross an irish whickey called middelton and what you taught of it the cheapest i have seen it was £120 for an unaged bottle.

[xiamwillx]

he looks so wasted

[masterblenderrichard]

@xiamwillx Thanks!

[gunut4]

i wonder how jack daniles compares to this, ive never tried any whiskey ever.

[masterblenderrichard]

@gunut4 Really? Want me to do a video comparing them?

[gunut4]

@masterblenderrichard Im guessing Jack Daniels will wind up looking like shit compared to this 1, but..... ya :)

[ArmyOfThePleroma]

@masterblenderrichard Forgive him sir, he knows not what he asks. On behalf of the whisk(e)y drinkers of America I beg that you give quarter.

[Inv4derxXx]

@gunut4 Jack D is pure goat's piss compared to any good whiskey

[hakufu666]

wonderful. he truly know how to enjoy a nice whisky

[masterblenderrichard]

@hakufu666 Thanks! The joy is in sharing though, so I'm delighted people here are finding this useful and entertaining.

[oli696969]

how long did that take to make?

[masterblenderrichard]

@oli696969 The whisky or the video? The youngest whisky in that bottle is 30 years old - hence the name - and I think the video was a couple of quick takes.

[robdorg]

rather pretentious for him to just outright call it the best whisky there is.

[masterblenderrichard]

@robdorg Well, it's won awards to back that up!

[EverLastingGobstoppa]

Umm u umm u umm, lol quality!

[blitzspeer]

I have to say a good weekender is with loved one's and Balvenie 12 double wood scotch and a bottle of Bulleit bourbon watching m.m.a. or boxing on the big screen t.v.!!haha.Drink responsibly and God bless.

[Bigturns33]

funny you say that i just bought the balvenie 12 double wood and watched lesner v carwin.

[SMGunar]

You make me laugh ya bastard and I know what you are talking about, but why should I be thinking that the stuff you are drinking is the stuff I should be drinking - especially when 30 years are dissolved in an the matter of seconds.

[masterblenderrichard]

@SMGunar Well, make it last longer than a few seconds! Sip and savour.

[HappyDay989]

@SMGunar: It isn't a shot that you just down as if it were tequilla, it's a whisky that needs time to open up and be savoured neat or with a few drops of still water at room temperature. Anything else is to be be considered an act of barbarity.

[MOHSIN2]

god bless the scots they sure know how to make a good whiskey

[HeartnSoul99]

Greetings, Richard, well done once again..."a parisian fan you know...w.r. as well"

[BourneAccident]

At about $250.00 usd per bottle, I think I'll stick to me single malts if you don't mind.... BUT.. you gotta love this guy....

mm...mmm...mmm... mmmm... mmm... and hows your momma...!

[hcoll]

mm mMM mMMMM mmmm

Haha love it.

[cojonesputa]

Great job Richard! You are great at what you do!

we love the 30 yo Whyte and mackay...

cheers

[BladerunnerLA2019]

Geat reveiw!! It looks fantastic. How much would a bottle go for?

[masterblenderrichard]

@BladerunnerLA2019 Around $200 USD I believe.

[ardlussa]

This is why we love you and all your great whiskies! Fascinating!

Regards

Claudia and Dirk
