Tastes

Honey, vanilla, black pepper, cereal grain a touch smoke. A decent amount of burn, more a tingling on the tongue than a harahness in the throat. A slight unctuous quality lends to the mouthdeel but overall kind of thin. All in all, it’s tasty and I’m not disappointed I bought it. Probably wouldn’t purchase again but it has me wanting to try more Irish whiskeys to change it up from the usual bourbon or scotch.

Old Tub Kentucky Straight Bourbon
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed September 15, 2023 (edited November 1, 2023)Aromas of caramel, cinnamon, black pepper, charred oak, sweet vanilla, some alcohol burn. Tastes of spices like the aforementioned cinnamon and pepper, smoky charred wood, kiss of vanilla with a rather full, unctuous mouthfeel and pleasant warmth. Finished with a dry, oily character and the flavors fade pretty quickly, only a little spice and burn linger. Particularly good, flavorful and less burn than expected for the price, really overdelivers. -
Wyoming Whiskey Small Batch Bourbon
Bourbon — Wyoming, USA
Reviewed September 13, 2023 (edited September 15, 2023)Aroma - sweet vanilla, orange peel, charred wood, black pepper Palate - full body, oily, orangey, pepper, smoky, more bitter less sweet vanilla, very warm, feel the alcohol Finish - moderately long, mostly a warm burn, mouth coating, astringent, a touch more pepper at the end Not bad, a little rough for the proof but nice flavor profile. Will try slightly chilled or a small ice cube to mellow it out some. Reasonable for the price I paid, would’ve been disappointed had I paid full price34.99 USD per Bottle -
New Riff Kentucky Straight Bourbon Bottled In Bond
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed January 9, 2023 (edited December 18, 2024)Aromas of caramel, toffee and charred wood. Full bodied, flavors of caramel, pepper, red apple and char. Slightly oily and warm from the higher proof but no burn - just a tingle on the tongue. -
Yellowstone Select Kentucky Straight Bourbon
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed October 10, 2022 (edited September 16, 2023)Medium bodied, slight viscosity, pleasant mouthfeel. Spicy, peppery, woody, brown sugar and apple cider flavors that only lingers in its slightly oily coating around the edges of the mouth. Good value, and pretty similar to another favorite of mine, Basil Hayden.
