    Single Malt — Lowlands, Scotland

    Tasted August 11, 2022

    3.5 out of 5 stars
    Grass and dark chocolate. Reminds me of an Irish whiskey. Not too complex, but nice combination of flavors.

    Nose is apples and bananas (maybe even those little banana candies). Taste is floral and sweet, with a little banana and marshmallow. Finishes on the shorter side with a little wood. The combination of lightness and flavor, along with its very reasonable price, makes this a favorite!

  3. Glenmorangie Quinta Ruban Port Cask Finish 14 Year

    Single Malt — Highlands, Scotland

    Tasted July 16, 2022

    3.75 out of 5 stars
    Nice fruity and floral flavors, but given extra depth thanks to the port finish and high proof. A little less smooth than I expected for a 14-year, but that basically made it a satisfying whiskey to sip slowly. My favorite from this lineup so far!

    Floral on the nose with a little bit of spice. I get a nice chocolate flavor, with a nice amount of sweetness. Pleasant finish with a little bit of wood.

  5. Smokehead High Voltage

    Peated Single Malt — Islay, Scotland

    Tasted March 27, 2022

    Not the most complex or refined, but it's flavors are strong and good - smoke, bbq, almond cake - thanks to the high proof, which makes it a satisfying whiskey to sip slowly. The branding is pretty silly, but does capture the aggressive, unsubtle approach of this whisky. Reminds me of Lost Spirits Abomination.

    Single Pot Still — Ireland

    Core flavors are similar to the 12 (malty, honeydew), but smoother over the tongue and warmer in the chest. I think some of the earthy flavors are subdued, and some of the citrus is a little more pronounced. Creates a cleaner taste. Really good!

  7. George Dickel Bottled in Bond Tennessee Whisky 11 Year (Fall 2008)

    Tennessee — Tennessee, USA

    The nose is subtle. On the pallette, I get nuts, fruits (a little cherry), and cinnamon. It's rich, but not oily. The finish is satisfying, where a little barrel oak shows up.

  8. Joseph Magnus Triple Cask Finished Bourbon

    Bourbon — Indiana (Finished and Bottled in Washington DC), USA

    Tasted December 5, 2021

    4.0 out of 5 stars
    It has a lot of the dessert-like, baking, accessible flavors that make bourbon so good, but without being very sweet. I also get a lot of cinnamon, and a bit of spice. This gives it an interesting flavor, and one I I really like. You might think of it like a very tasty, old fashioned candy.

  9. Balcones Lineage Texas Single Malt

    American Single Malt — Texas, USA

    Tasted October 17, 2021
    3.5
    3.5 out of 5 stars
    Distinctive and tasty. I get a kind of spicy chocolate flavor, but without either too much sweetness or bitterness. Has some of the flavors that I really like in other Balcones whiskeys, though nothing quite like the Brimstone.

  10. Balcones Texas Pot Still Bourbon

    Bourbon — Texas, USA

    Woodshop oil on the nose. Cinnamon spice, a little sweet, a little molasses. Deep, spicy finish. Not at all a classic bourbon, but excellent. Has more of what makes the Brimstone (a personal favorite) so great than I expected.
