Tastes

This is my kind of bourbon. Classic, balanced, good on the nose with a finish that lingers. I’ll savor this bottle slowly on special occasions.

The wheat comes through along with the classic bourbon caramel notes. It’s well balanced and the finish lingers. I’ll enjoy this bottle but I’m not much of a wheated fan and probably won’t come back.

Peaty Scotch sample. I’m a novice to the powers of peat. Gonna be honest, smells like a bandaid on the nose. But it opens up more enjoyably on the pallet which warms all the way down and ends up pretty enjoyable.

Enjoyed this sample. Didn’t knock my socks off but an enjoyable single malt. Balanced, with floral notes and a pleasant mouthfeel.

This is a solid Scotch. Good on the nose, nice mouthfeel, and a pleasant finish.

Sample. Nothing really special in this for me. It’s fine and I wouldn’t turn away another pour but won’t be buying it.

I like this just fine. I wouldn’t call it special, I wouldn’t call it trash. It tastes like a blend between a typical Irish whiskey and Scotch. It’s got that triple distilled smoothness with just a hint of smoke. I’ll happily sip on it if gifted to me as this was but probably won’t go out of my way to buy it.

New to barrel proof. Took me a few pours to get the ratio of water to taste. But once I did I enjoyed the heck out this bottle. Such good flavor. Really really good.

Had my eye on this for awhile. This was a sample. It has a nice nose, some citrus hints along with the usuals. It’s a dry bourbon, and quality. The finish is nice. Left me wishing I had more.

Probably overhyped but a solid bourbon. Classic on the nose, good flavor with depth, just enough heat. Very well balanced.
