Jack Daniel's 12 Year (Batch 1)
Tennessee Whiskey — Tennessee, USA
Reviewed April 21, 2023 (edited May 24, 2023)Delicious. Blackberries and raspberries, like a jam over toast. Rich and thick. -
Old Carter Straight American Whiskey Batch 9 (2022 Release)
Blended American Whiskey — USA
Reviewed April 14, 2023Really unique pour. I get a smoky, almost ester flavor on this. I get almost a mesquite on it, but not in a finished way, if that makes sense. Very good. -
I know you shouldn’t factor price into a review, but when you ask ~$120 for a bottle, you open yourself up for additional assessment. This whiskey is good. It’s slightly herbal with a creamy texture. It is slightly cloying on the palate. A little spicy apricot presence too. With all that being said, it shouldn’t be $120. I know the brand is riding the coattails of its fabled success, but the stuff is not up to the same par. I liked Confiscated more than this, and that is also notoriously overpriced. Save your cash.

Stagg Jr Barrel Proof Bourbon Batch 18
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed April 7, 2023 (edited May 29, 2023)Nose: A panoply of berries, stone fruit, and melon. A couple light earthy notes. Palate: Wave of grape flavor ice. Strawberries. French toast with icing. Decadent. Finish: Cinnamon. Red hots. Baking spices and brown sugar. Still some fruit influence. Its awesome. It sometimes sucks when a bottle lives up to the hype, but these always do it. I’s grab this sub $200 and feel totally fine about it. It is a special bottle.
