Tastes

This is an excellent choice for Scotch lovers looking for a steal in terms of value. Where most "cheap" options would probably lead you to something like a Johnny Walker or lower end Balvenie, Laphroaig 10 doesn't compromise quality while still remaining more than affordable. It's remarkably peaty and finishes smooth. Definitely one to keep in the cabinet.

One of the best values. This is a great bourbon, distinguished by how smooth it finished while maintaining a richness throughout. Definitely one to keep in the cabinet.

It's a solid choice for sure. It's got distinguishable notes of leather, like a brand new baseball mitt. Without a doubt worth trying, but not the finest blend for the dollar.

The Golden Standard for all other Scotch Whisky. Good luck finding a better balance of peat, vanilla, and spice at the same value. Every Scotch should try to be like Lagavulin 16.

An excellent, affordable go-to option for Bourbon lovers.

One of my favorite Scotches. Has a more clear color that I appreciate and tastes like peaty paradise. If you like your Scotch to be smoky and rich (who doesn't) then you'll love this Whisky.

I've yet to try a bourbon that I enjoy as much as this. Thick, rich, and toasty with a finish that burns exactly how you want it to. There's never a bad time for this glorious American bourbon.

A balanced ratio of sweet to spice, Proper No.12 stays true to Irish Whiskey in nailing a mild flavor while still finishing with a toasty oak flavor. For the price, I cannot help but give it nearly 4 stars.
