Tastes

So this is what Bob Dylan tastes like...

Good, cheap, Smooth, must have lots of Macallan in it imo. What a find- I read many of the other reviews on FG - I don’t understand peoples beef? iv paid multiples more for much less. I recommend picking up a bottle

Don’t be fooled by whiskey snobs on here who have convinced themselves that throwing relative value to the wind is an acceptable practice- for $55 this is a great 20 year staple scotch that eclipses many scotches at the $100 price point - And I should end this rant there; however: It’s spicy, has and above average complexity, it’s a little softer than the 18, the mouth feel is ... meaah, but the finish is quite satisfying. All n’ all the flavors are just a little disjointed in comparison to say... a center cut macallan at 7 times the price, but for the money you can’t go wrong. This is definitely worth picking up a few bottles next time you’re at Costco. 👍🏼

Really really sweet, almost too sweet, like drinking candy. It’s a Carmel overload that lacks depth. The finish is smooth and shows the age .. but it’s pretty one dimensional - Alternatively I would suggest one considers- (in the real world); four roses single barrel, Elijah Craig barrel proof, Jefferson ocean CS, knob creek BP. 👍🏼

Idk about paying one hundred clams for this bottle....- but it’s really well balanced and smooth- not necessarily complex, but won’t disappoint. It’s dark looking - and regardless of added color I still prefer a dark “scotch” - for example; Hedonism is so damn tasty but it’s color throws me way off- it looks like a Chardonnay and tastes like a beast. So, added color in scotch you say? I’ll take it.

Great, more super expensive NAS whisky being released to slowly ween consumers off age statements - it seems as if whiskey companies are working harder on marketing these days to brainwash people using high prices, unknown recipes, FOMO, and fancy boxes. Personally - I won’t be participating in any NAS whisky above $130 whatsoever, but if someone wants to buy me a sample - I’ll try it. 😃 cheers to age statements!

What a great purchase this was- it’s flavorful, thought provoking, oily, mature, and rewarding. And at this price point for a 25; This bottle is my new buddy. Another reviewer called this a “hidden gem” - that’s spot on.

Here’s the deal (correct me if I’m wrong) I have Corry, and Oogie- they are both fantastic and different enough to stand on their own. However, I recently cracked open a few bottles of grooves and kelpie and I feel like I’m basically tasting some sort of reconnoitering of their same NAS whiskey with new names and marketing- I think my bitch is that because of the lack of age statements I’m only deciphering char and vatting for most new ardbegs- not aging... it feels kinda like I’m eating at lunch Buffett where they serve the same 5 things daily - but just mix it together In different amounts and put a differ label on it.. somebody please tell me otherwise.

Sherry bomb,- Delicious and well done.

👌🏼 Perfection. Savory. Full flavored. Complex. Delicious.
