Tastes

Nose: weakly expressed, beeswax, corn sweet, slightly alocoholic. Palate: rather sweet, strong, turning to spicy theme. Somewhere far - beeswax, scent of lighting candles. Aftertaste: interesting, pepper & spices, sweet corn, wax, candles. Summary: weak aroma, good taste and finish. 3,3/5 stars (78 score)

Nose: alcohol, sweetness, light shade of sun-dried fruit. Palate: alcohol burn, sweet, a bit oaky. Aftertaste: short, peppery, alcohol burn. Summary: certainly not the worst blend i've tried; pro - no unpleasant scents and flavours; contra - relatively strong alcohol burn, not very easy to drink. 2.2/5 stars (score 67)

Not that bad, as I thought it was. Nose: smoke, cigarette smoke, a shade of sour dough (bad thing, definitely). Taste: pepper, smoke. Aftertaste: short, peppery. Update: two days after bottle was opened (hello, screw cap), smoke mostly disappeared, and shades of sun-dried fruits come on the foreground. No more "sour dough" smell. Taste and aftertaste remains the same. Total: 2.3/5 stars (68 score).

Nose: raw wood, lacquer, sweet corn, a bit spiritous. Palate: dense, sweet, peppery, slightly hot. Aftertaste: spices, pepper, duration below average. Overall: a decent Bourbon to drink neat. Head and shoulders above Jim Beam. 3,2/5 stars (77 score).

Aroma: raisins, nutty notes, light shade of celery, following by oak after some time. The aroma is good expressed. Taste: sweet, raisins notes, very mild and pleasant, no degree of alcohol content, warming. Really nice texture, medium density. Finish: long, warm, slightly burning, reveals shades of sweet waffles. Overall: very pleasant, easy to drink whisky, but not very complex. 3,7/5 stars (82 score).

Aroma: green apple, fruity. Taste: balanced, fruity and oaky, body is dense enough. Aftertaste: average, apricot kernel, apples, spices, oaky shades. Overall: 3,5/5 stars (80 score).

Great bourbon wiskey. It has a lot common with Jack Daniel's Old No. 7, but a level higher in all aspects - aroma is more expressed,but milder, taste is noble, rounded. 3,7/5 stars (82 score).

Color: strong green tea. Nose: lacquer, damp wood, chemically fruity (did not managed to identify the exact fruit, but something very familiar), earthy in the background. Broadly, the aroma is quite pleasant, despite the chemical shades. Taste: consistence is somewhat mediocre, slight alcohol burn, nothing new to the flavor, relatively dry. Finish: short, simplified, burns a bit. Overall impression: one can drink this whisky neat, but it's not advisable. Aroma and taste are ideal for mixing with Coca-Cola. In any case, the scent is good, alcohol burn is acceptable. Good drink for a proper price ($20-25 per 0.7 litre). 2.6/5 stars (71 score).
