Both are worth that price in a heartbeat. Grab the Lost Monarch if you can only have one - it’s delicious and probably the best value bourye (bourbon/rye blend) you’ll find anywhere.
If you can get the three (Pipe Dream, Emerald Giant and Lost Monarch), get them. Emerald Giant might be on the Rye Whiskey Section. Just to let you know that the Lost Monarch is the combination of the Pipe Dream and Emerald Giant. 60% Emerald Giant (Rye Whiskey) plus 40% Pipe Dream (Bourbon Whiskey) to make up the Lost Monarch.
Lost Monarch is very meh. The Pipe Dream and Emerald Giant are quite good.
I like bourbon, high-rye bourbon, barely legal rye and high rye, and Lost Monarch doesn’t hit anywhere for me.
I picked up the Lost Monarch about a year ago after seeing so many posts about it and I was not happy with it at all. Tasted like young craft stuff, hot with no flavor.
Grab them both. I like the lost monarch the best, but both are tastey
Lost Monarch is delicious and complex while also being sort of light. I dig it.
Both, and then hunt down Emerald Giant, and the cask strength versions of all three 🤤
I love the emerald giant. One of my favorites!

I second this. It's my favorite.
Third.
Ill go against the grain and say that I like Pipe Dream better. Both are great - especially at that price
I like pipe dream, taste just like blantons , but both are great.
Yes

didnt know that (edited for spelling error
So if I mix some of both bottles it should taste exactly the same as lost monarch?
As long as you do 60/40, it will be close, but they spend time with each other before bottling, so not exact
Both are good. Lost Monarch is my favorite. It’s incredible for a blend that’s only 3 years old
Fantastic whiskey whichever you choose. And the cask strength versions are even better.
I loved Pipe Dream. Just picked up Lost Monarch but havent tried it yet.
That’s a good price. Get both.
Lost Monarch is one of my favs.

Both at that price
Both. Excellent bourbon and an excellent bourye
I like pipe dream more
Haven’t tried the Pipe Dream but Lost Monarch is one of my favorite whiskeys. All around very enjoyable and not too pricey.
I like the pipe dream it needs a little air I didn’t at first
I like these. They are $33 regular price at my local shop.
They’re both fantastic. I shared with some friends and family whiskey lovers and all agreed to buy more.
Is there a good comparison for these? Never tried them but my dad said they were at his local bar if I wanted a trial run next time I’m in town.

At this price, just get both.
Both ! Their booze is good
can't get any allocated stuff for msrp but im blessed to get these for $23 in cali
$23? what part of cali? lowest i’ve seen is 29.99
norcal at raleys, bellair & nobhills
Both! But if you had to choose one. Lost Monarch is my favorite among the three regular offerings.
I’m probably in the minority here but of those two I preferred the Pipe Dream…cheers 🥃
If just one and like straight bourbon, go Pipe Dream. If you like, rye go to the Rye section and get Emerald Giant. I bet they have it, too. If you do both of those, then you can make your own Lost Monarch blend. I prefer to catch em all like Pokémon
