I am not a big Vodka drinker. This was gifted to me from a friend who travels to Alaska. From what I understand this vodka is very cheap. However, don't let the name and price fool you. This vodka is crisp and clean and is one of the better ones I have tried. It makes excellent cocktails. If you can get this at your local Costco, buy it.

Appleton Estate Rare Blend 12 Year Rum
Aged Rum — Jamaica
Reviewed February 19, 2018 (edited February 16, 2019)Wow. This is a really nice rum. Nose: molasses and banana dominate Taste: molasses, banana, caramel, citrus, subtle oak undertone, hint of cocoa. Molasses lingers on the tongue and palate. Very pleasant. I'm new to sipping rums and read good reviews on this one so I bought it when my ABC store had it on sale for $31. Makes a killer classic Mai Tai.31.0 USD per Bottle -
Four Roses Single Barrel Bourbon
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed February 4, 2018 (edited February 16, 2019)This is one of my favorite bourbons to enjoy neat. I realize that single barrels can differ depending on the barrel, so this particular bottle I enjoyed is from warehouse RS and barrel 13-1W. The nose is very enjoyable: sweet smelling with vanilla and brown sugar dominating. Taste: First of all this bourbon goes down easily. Vanilla, oak, caramel, apple, and chocolate are flavors my palate detects. The rye provides a nice peppery bite. Afterwords, apples and hints of chocolate linger. Wow, what a bourbon. I liked this one a lot.45.0 USD per Bottle -
Eagle Rare 10 Year Bourbon
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed February 2, 2018 (edited February 8, 2019)I’m on the fence with this one. I like it, but I don’t love it. I want more out of this one given the hype and increasing popularity. I’ll revisit after letting it sit for a few weeks, which I hear helps with this one. Addendum: A few weeks later and I’m still not wowed. If someone offered me a glass I would drink it, but it isn’t a bottle I need or want to keep on hand. So, I guess that’s one less person you’ll have to compete with for a bottle. You’re welcome.35.0 USD per Bottle -
