Port Askaig 12 Year Autumn Edition (Bottled 2020)
Single Malt — Islay, Scotland
Reviewed October 21, 2023Deep peat aroma, dry and charcoal. Not wet like laprhoaig would be. Almost ashy. Not as much peat initially on the hit, it's actually quite balanced. Classic scotch sweetness with the peat coming in on the tail like a truck. Powerful, spicy, but leaning more smoke than peat. Charcoal and campfire, still enjoyable.The Muse Whiskey Bar & Coffee Shop -
Kavalan Solist Vinho Barrique Single Cask Strength
Single Malt — Taiwan
Reviewed October 21, 2023 (edited August 2, 2024)Deep rich aroma, wine and plum, dark fruit and port. Flavor is an assault, power and burn, sweet and tannins, you can taste the concentration of the heat the barrels are matured in. This is everything I love in a whiskey with a wine twist, it's absolutely perfectThe Muse Whiskey Bar & Coffee Shop -
Barrell Craft Spirits Gold Label Dovetail (2022 Release)
Other Whiskey — Multiple Countries
Reviewed October 21, 2023Aroma is vanilla and honey but the flavor is a JOURNEY. The initial vanilla hit melts into all the casks it's finished in, sweet rum, almost a little tart, the tannins of the Cabernet, it's rich and just melts. Tingly burn to accent it, but the wood and tannins complexity are beautiful. Magnifique.The Muse Whiskey Bar & Coffee Shop -
2Bar Amaretto Barrel Finished Straight Bourbon Whiskey
Bourbon — USA
Reviewed October 19, 2023 (edited October 20, 2023)Smells positively heavenly. Complex almost like cognac. Almond and honey. Flavor is the same honestly, if I didn't know any better I'd say I was drinking cognac. Not quite as sweet for sure. Super weird and cool but loses points for not tasting like whiskey. -
Sweet Kiss of Complexity (SMWS #105.40)
Single Malt — Scotland, Scotland
Reviewed October 16, 2023 (edited October 17, 2023)Dark sweet aroma j can't place. Flavor is complex, deep and rich wood and vanilla with a strong note of peaches, complete with the tang and not just the sweetness. Richness blends all the flavors together. Absolutely love this. So coolThe Barrel Thief
