  • Mr. Stacks Peppermint

    Herbal/Spice Liqueurs — Minnesota , USA

    Reviewed July 22, 2022
    3.0
    3.0 out of 5 stars
    Definite peppermint aromas. Is that chocolate or am I trained to think of peppermint patties. At any rate it’s got a real candy vibe. Slightly medicinal on the nose too but I think that’s expected. Very thick mouth feel. Sweet sweet oh so sweet peppermint is the first and almost solo flavor. It’s still screaming candy. That phantom chocolate remains. The medicinal qualities have decreased but still exist. The finish is cloying and of average length.

  • Sauza Tequila Blanco

    Tequila Mixto — Tequila Valley, Jalisco, Mexico

    Aromas are sweet vanilla and sweet cream. Agave is pretty well hidden by this candy aroma. Flavors are similar but the previously undetectable alcohol makes a hard and rapid appearance. But it fades as quickly. Replaced by a sweetness that is a little rubber, plastic, and otherwise artificial. But better than some low cost tequila out there.

    Lots of agave. Some smoke. Not as much as I expected. The nicest part was the finish as the smoke was fading and the sweet agave was lingering.

    Nose of ethanol and wood. Mostly ethanol. Flavors are close. But there’s a slight sweet note on the first touch to the tongue. Maybe some melon. But it’s short and the alcohol harshness kills it quickly.

    I was surprised by this. Nose of caramel and sweet wood. Some cotton candy and some spice. Flavors are right in line. The finish is a little hot. But decent stuff.

    This was classic rye to my taste. Sweeter than some, but the spiciness was evident especially on the finish.

    Aromas of deep sweet wood. Caramel. Hints of smoke. On the flavor the smoke was great than on the nose but still miles compared to many Scotches. Flavors were more wood and vanilla. Some spice on a finish that lingered nicely.

    Aromas are bitter chocolate and coffee. Not much indication of the sweetness I know to expect. Some anise. But some overpowering chemical aromas too. Flavor is pure sweetness. Pure sugar almost. Only touches of the coffee and chocolate I found in the nose. Luckily not much of the chemicals either. But still somehow artificial. Strange duplicity in this one.

    Aroma is basically a hospital in a glass. Isopropyl alcohol is all I smell. The flavor is much better. Vanilla and sugar cane sit on the tongue until the swallow. Then the aftertaste and finish come in with only heat and more rubbing alcohol.

    Aromas are so smoky. Smoky peat and wood smoke. Also in the back I get bright orange. Some vanilla. A little peach. The flavors are right in line. The smoke hits first followed by the wood and the very slight fruit on the finish. The aftertaste is a fresher newer smoke and peat flavor that lingers nicely.
