Woodinville Straight Bourbon
Bourbon — Washington, USA
Reviewed November 4, 2018 (edited November 30, 2018)All spice kick at the beginning, caramel after. Caramel tastes fake, but smells amazing. Lots of barrel burn, but not alcohol burn, the spice makes it pleasant. Pepper? Cinnamon? Smells like heaven. -
Pendleton Original Canadian Whisky
Canadian — Canada
Reviewed November 4, 2018 (edited November 30, 2018)Thin, but sweet and balanced with minimal burn. I taste caramel. A bit of barrel burn but the balance is really good. -
Auchentoshan American Oak
Single Malt — Lowlands, Scotland
Reviewed November 4, 2018 (edited November 30, 2018)Vanilla, oak, and with a hint of smoke. Wonderfully balanced, with all of the flavors mingling perfectly. Love it. -
Evan Williams Black Label
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed November 4, 2018 (edited November 30, 2018)Flavors are prominent, richer than I'd expect for the price. I don't particularly care for whatever flavor it is though, oak I think. Too much bite on the tongue and the nose, and the flavors taste a little cheap or fake. -
Glen Moray Elgin Classic Sherry Cask Finish
Single Malt — Speyside, Scotland
Reviewed November 4, 2018 (edited April 21, 2022)Super light flavor, distinctive scotch taste but very sweet. Tail grows sweeter as it goes along, and has a woody sweet taste, I bet what Sherry tastes like. Doesn't taste fake or added at all, wonderful blend of flavors. Thin and light, needs no water. Minimal bite. Just short of 5 only because it's actually a little too sweet for me. Tastes like dessert. -
Weller Antique 107 Bourbon
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed November 4, 2018 (edited November 30, 2018)Tons of intensity and kick, burns, but it's a good burn. Spice and sweet mostly, sweet first, then spice. Once you add some water it balances wonderfully. Still some bite, but that's to be expected with the proof. Rich, thick, super long tail end. Fantastic. -
Laphroaig 10 Year
Single Malt — Islay, Scotland
Reviewed November 4, 2018 (edited November 30, 2018)Smokiest smoke smoke smokin. Kicks really hard, almost a little too hard. Doesn't need any water, little bit thin. Could do with a touch less smoke, otherwise magnificent. -
Old Grand-Dad 114 Bourbon
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed November 4, 2018 (edited November 30, 2018)Incredibly strong and aggressive, needs water. Light spice present in it somewhere, clove or something. Cinnamon? Needs to be a bit richer to balance the strength.
