Jim Beam Signature Craft Quarter Cask Finish
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed October 28, 2019 (edited November 16, 2020)My favorite Jim Beam product so far. I get the typical corn, vanilla and peanuts on the nose, but more subdued, with mild sweet merlot, semisweet entry on the creamy and round palate, the finish is medium length, and makes me feel like a swaddled baby, all comforted and content. -

Reviewed October 27, 2019What hints at wild turkey 101 plus sweet orchard fruit, cereals and malt on the nose, the same notes on the creamy palate and the short finish, although the finish does have a brief bitter note. -
Finlaggan Old Reserve Islay Single Malt
Single Malt — Islay, Scotland
Reviewed October 25, 2019 (edited January 1, 2022)Notes on the label: Nose: Earthy smokey peat and salty ocean breeze. Palate: Pungent peat smoke, chewy sweet malt, pepper, tar and a touch of iodine. Finish: Long and warming. Smokey ashes of the peat fire. I get band aids and sweet, smokey brine on the nose. The palate is semisweet, creamy, oily and viscous. The finish is medium length and warming with some savory, sweet notes. Great value for $18.99 at Trader Joe's. -

Reviewed October 25, 2019 (edited November 20, 2019)A hint of smokey brine with pears and apples on the nose, same on the oily palate, the finish is medium length with a little heat and slightly more smoke. A splash of water added a hint if floral note to the nose, made the palate slightly creamy, and brought out some pepper on the finish. -
George Dickel 9 Year Hand Selected Barrel
Tennessee Whiskey — Tennessee, USA

Tennessee Whiskey — Tennessee, USA
Reviewed October 21, 2019 (edited December 6, 2019)Sweet corn, maple syrup and oak on the nose. More sweet corn and oak on the grainy palate with some mineral notes. The medium finish reprises the sweet corn with a hint of heat. A splash of water brought out the Dickel children's vitamins on the nose and palate.
