  • Malfy Gin con Limone

    Flavored Gin — Italy

    Reviewed April 10, 2022

    2.25 out of 5 stars
    Aromas mostly of Lemon Pledge. Floral notes are not absent tho. After a few sniffs I pick up Sprite. Flavor is not Pledge thank goodness, but the lemon is not as present as I would have expected. Mostly floral and juniper. Some bitter finish. After you get past the nose, it’s almost just a gin. And not a great one.

  • Rémy Martin 1738 Accord Royal Cognac

    Cognac — Cognac, France

    Aromas are quite nice. Bourbon style wood with grape and cherry fruitiness. Apple and a little fruit cocktail syrup. Flavors stay sweet but not right away. The first taste is cooked apple then oak then there’s evidence of alcohol but it’s not an intense burn. The finish is long and the sweetness comes back. Fading into a candied wine grape

  • Tanteo Jalapeño Tequila

    Flavored Tequila — Mexico

    Aromas of jalapeño rose up from the glass as I poured. But a more focused whiff detects sweet agave and white pepper overlayed with jalapeños. The flavor is multi layered for sure. Sweet agave nectar is the first flavor. Quickly giving way to double heat. Alcohol heat and burning jalapeño heat. The start of the finish brings on some candied vanilla. Then jalapeño hits hard and lingers well into the aftertaste. Minutes and minutes afterward. A delightful mouth burn along with it.

    Floral and spice nose. Anise. Clove. Apple cider with extra cinnamon. The sip is tightly sweet rich sugar and allspice. Then it opens up to the bitterness. The spices linger and the sweetness fades but you can still feel it on your lips. Full and slightly oily mouthfeel.

    Aromas are fresh cucumber, unmuddled mint leaves and broken twigs. A little black pepper and grain too. The cucumber is more muted on the upfront flavor and the mint doesn’t come back around until the finish and aftertaste. The flavor that replaces the cucumber is akin to watercress

    Very promote nose of charred wood. Some melon notes. Dry grass. Strangely I detect agave too. Flavors are obviously smoke. melon turns to apple and spice. Then smoke wafts back in along with a nice warming heat lasting throughout the finish and into the aftertaste.

    Aromas of caramel, oak, apple sweetness. Flavors hit spice right away reserving the apple for the finish when it comes raging back just after the burn.

    Aromas are very wine like. Dark dark fruits. Tartness and brown sugar on the nose too. After a few sips the brown sugar aromas gets stronger. The flavors convert to honey and more brown sugar and molasses. Finishes warm with some spiciness that hits just right. Great stuff.
