Sagamore Spirit 'Sagamore Reserve' Moscatel Barrel Finished (2017 Limited Edition Release)
Rye — (bottled in) Maryland, USA
Reviewed December 21, 2018So sweet, so cherry cinnamon... then so HOT. This little firecracker will fool you on the first sip until she drags you into a back room and gives you what-for on the swallow. You won’t regret getting burned in the end, either. -
Jefferson's Reserve Twin Oak Custom Barrel Bourbon
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed November 17, 2018 (edited March 10, 2021)I love anything that tastes like licking a piece of vintage furniture and this bottle is THERE. Even the nose = “antique store.” Put it in my veins. -
Baltimore Epoch Straight Rye Batch #2
Rye — Maryland, USA
Reviewed November 2, 2018 (edited February 19, 2020)As a Baltimorean with a love of high proof firewater, my opinion may be taken with a grain of salt - but I think Epoch is a bit underrated per Distiller’s expert review. This is a chewy, warm, Xmas spicy, ORANGE PEEL sip that is one of the very few ryes I’ve ever been tempted to order a second pour on (serious bourbon drinker here, rye usually does nothing for me.) Complexity and depth are already present, but could go to another level. Based on my experience with Epoch, I am absolutely psyched to see what may come out of BWC’s aged reserves in future. Another year or two in the barrels may reveal something truly exceptional.
