  • 99 Watermelons

    Fruit Liqueurs — Kentucky, USA

    Reviewed May 31, 2022

    Alcohol is evident on the aroma. Not a surprise for this proof. Watermelon gummies are next on the nose. Some sugarcane too. And bubblegum. Flavors are sugar first. Watermelon gummies make up the watermelon character. The heat hits hard after that but fades quickly. Left with more candy watermelon and a fading pink gumball.

    Aromas are primarily rubbing alcohol. There’s hints of spice and vanilla but it takes work to find. Flavors are slightly better. Some sweetness and sugarcane. That vanilla makes another appearance. But it’s all surrounded by rubbing alcohol and heavy heat. Artificial and plastic aftertaste.

  • Grangestone Highland Single Malt Sherry Cask Finish

    Aromas gave me bright apples first. Then obvious oak and vanilla. I’m then cooked sweet apples. Flavor was similar. Apples and oak and vanilla. The heat holds off into the very short finish and is not overwhelming. Some cinnamon and other spices complement the apple that holds on from beginning to end. There is an aftertaste that is a little bit artificial and plastic.

    Aromas are leather and wood. Some vanilla. cinnamon. peach. Apple pie. Flavors lose almost all of that. First hit is hot alcohol. Harsh burn. The wood holds on. The leather comes back in the finish as the burn fades away.

    Aromas are quite nice. Vanilla. Oak. Spice. Some citrus and some toffee. Flavor hits hard though. Hard and hot on the alcohol. A little harsh. There’s some vanilla that finds it’s way through and some butterscotch. Spices like cinnamon and clove on the final finish and an aftertaste that hits the vanilla strings again.

    Aromas of juniper and other flowery note. Flavor hits first with lime. Lime-like citrus keeps on through the finish as alcohol hits pretty hard and burns a bit. A little hard. But the finish is not overly long.

    Aromas are mostly wine. Grapes and everything you expect. No indication of the sweetness to come. The flavors are wine grapes up front but the sweetness hits shortly after followed by the perfect tang of alcohol and some citrus peel in the after taste. Very tasty.

    Pale yellow. Not much good to it. Aromas of smoke. agave. ethanol. Cooked veggies. A little citrus. Flavor is almost nothing at first. Then some heat and corn. A touch of sweet vanilla. Then rubbing alcohol takes me to the finish where I pick up that cooked veggie/agave. You can likely find better.

    Aromas of sunscreen. As expected. Sweet sugary coconut. Mouth feel was thick and cloying. But the flavors were better. Sweet coconut. Cotton candy. A little bit of s spearmint on the finish. Easier to drink than a coconut rum. But would probably mix just as well as one.

    Aromas of coconut. Slightly toasted. Vanilla and sugar notes. Alcohol is very slightly present. Less sunscreen aroma than popular brands. Flavor is super sweet. Cloying too. Feeling like a liqueur but slightly more alcohol finish than most liqueurs. Very very short finish. Aftertaste is barely anything more than a stickiness on the lips.
