00:00Here at Us Weekly, we love trying celebrity food trends, as well as beverages inspired by our favorite movies and TV shows.
00:06Today, we're trying 4Six's Whiskey and Vodka, which might sound familiar to fans of the Yellowstone franchise.
00:144Six's, if you recall, is the ranch that is owned by Mr. Taylor Sheridan, co-creator of Yellowstone, 1923, 1883, and the list goes on.
00:25And this is the latest product in his growing empire, 4Six's Whiskey and Vodka.
00:35I mean, the packaging. Can we just say?
00:37The packaging alone, I mean, this is, we can't even be seen behind it. But yeah, are you ready to taste some liquor today?
00:44I am ready to taste it. Let's get, become, do our, let's do some cowboy s***.
00:48All right.
00:49I probably can't say that.
00:50So we're tasting this today in honor of the season two premiere of 1923.
00:57Oh, the gurgle is fabulous.
01:02I mean, it smells like vodka.
01:03It smells like vodka?
01:04Yeah. Ranch tested, cowboy approved.
01:08So let's see if it's cowgirl approved.
01:09All right, here we go.
01:10Do you drink a lot of vodka?
01:12Not really. I'm, uh.
01:19Oh, that is.
01:20That's vodka.
01:20It's vodka.
01:22You know.
01:24It's nice and clear.
01:25It is. It honestly isn't, it didn't, I think my face like made it worse because it's like,
01:32I'm in my head about the fact that I'm drinking vodka.
01:34Yeah, I mean.
01:34Straight, I don't usually drink vodka straight.
01:36I am a big martini fan, and I think this would be great in a martini.
01:40Extra dirty, blue cheese olives.
01:42You get a little olive juice, you get a little vermouth, kind of cuts the harshness of the vodka.
01:48Yeah.
01:49I could definitely see Beth Dutton replacing her usual Tito's order with this.
01:54Yeah, I definitely could see that.
01:55I think that I'm onto something that they drink vodka maybe during the day.
01:59So are you a whiskey drinker?
02:01Um, I can drink some whiskey.
02:02I definitely have taken whiskey straight more than I've taken vodka straight.
02:06Yeah, I, you know, grew up in Kentucky, so.
02:10Right.
02:10It's a real point of pride for me.
02:12And where's this from?
02:13Well, this was bottled in Louisville, so, you know.
02:18Go Wildcats.
02:19No, no, no.
02:20Oh, go Cats.
02:21No, no, no.
02:22Who is Louisville?
02:24The Wildcats are from Lexington.
02:26That's University of Kentucky.
02:27Oh, sorry, sorry.
02:28Louisville is the Cardinals.
02:29The Cardinals, go Birds.
02:31Yes, and we are Cardinals fans in this home.
02:32Oh, you are Cardinals fans in this home?
02:34Yeah, we are very anti-Wildcat.
02:35Okay, cheers.
02:36Sorry, not sorry.
02:37This is definitely for, like, right after you finish some roping and barrel racing,
02:41like the bottle says.
02:46Ooh, I like that.
02:46Oh, that's really good.
02:48Really smooth.
02:49Oh, wow.
02:49Yeah.
02:50With an ice cube?
02:51Yeah.
02:52This would be incredible.
02:54It almost tastes a little bit like an Irish whiskey, but, like, not so harsh.
02:57Yes, as someone who just came from the Jameson factory, I like this better.
03:02And it has that Irish touch.
03:04Yeah, but, like, it's obviously not bourbon.
03:07You know, bourbon has its own requirements.
03:09But it does have a little sweetness to it, like a bourbon.
03:12Do you think it's Ranch Chested Cowboy approved?
03:15How much does this retail for, Eliza?
03:17They retail for about $30 a bottle.
03:19Okay.
03:20Available at places like Total Wine.
03:23That feels right.
03:23I feel like it's, like, pretty good quality for 30 bucks.
03:26Yeah, for sure it is.
03:27For whiskey, especially.
03:28And on the FourSix's website, they have tons and tons of FourSix's branded
03:33merchandise that you can get to go with it.
03:34Like, there's, like, a whiskey flight set.
03:37So you could be pouring samples out for your guests.
03:40For your 1923 watch party.
03:42Exactly.
03:43Back February 23rd on Paramount+.
03:45Well, I think I'm going to go pour this into my Diet Coke and
03:48bring it to my desk and have a little Whiskey DC for the afternoon.
03:52Um, I don't know if I said this before, but the FourSix's Ranch
03:56was, it's like a legendary ranch in Texas that Taylor Sheridan bought.
04:00And then it has obviously featured on Yellowstone,
04:04but is supposed to have its own spinoff eventually.
04:07With Jimmy.
04:07With Jimmy, who Yellowstone viewers may remember went to go live there,
04:12met a new lady.
04:13He's really adapting well to life in Texas.
04:15Do you think Jimmy drinks the whiskey or the vodka?
04:19I think he secretly drinks the vodka, but wishes he was drinking the whiskey.
04:22Yeah, I feel like he's like a vodka crayon girl.
04:24Such a vodka crayon girl.
04:26But he's telling the ranch hands that he's shooting straight whiskey.
04:29And they're like, there's no way, dude.
04:31Oh my god, I love Jimmy.
04:32I really hope that happens.
04:33I mean, if we're gonna, if we need one more Yellowstone spinoff, it's that one.
04:36Yeah.
04:36I mean, the limit does not exist for how many Yellowstone spinoffs I'll watch.
04:41I'll watch them all.
04:43Give them all to me, Taylor.
04:45And also hire us as writers.
04:47Thank you and good night.
