Glenfiddich Fire & Cane
Single Malt — Speyside, Scotland
Reviewed September 28, 2023 (edited October 4, 2023)I’m a sucker for a whiskey marked as “sale”. I’ve bought my fair share of dogs because of this. This whiskey is not one of those. These are neck pour notes. NOSE: Phenols, and hints of BBQ meats and smoke, general sweetness, honey, tropical fruits, toffee, baking spices and malt. PALATE: Round, semi sweet, viscous and rich, malt, tropical fruit sweetness, general spiciness, honey, caramel, and vanilla. FINISH: Pretty long for 43 abv, spice and sweetness . A pretty good blending of peat and rum IMO.37.99 USD per Bottle -
Barrell Bourbon Cask Finish Series: Amburana (Release 001)
Bourbon — USA
Reviewed September 21, 2023 (edited October 13, 2023)Neck pours. The Amburana cask is working it’s magic here accentuating the cinnamon, nutmeg, clove and vanilla on the nose and palate. The whiskey is no slouch either. Balanced, semisweet and viscous, adding honey and hints of orange marmalade and nuts. The finish is lengthy and the Amburana again comes to the fore with intense baking spices. Nearly perfect from the get go.84.99 USD per Bottle -

Doc Swinson's Alter Ego Triple Cask Straight Bourbon Finished in Sherry & Cognac Casks
Bourbon — USA
Reviewed September 18, 2023 (edited September 28, 2023)Neck pours. Nice honey, brown sugar, chocolate, cherry, berry, and citrus notes on nose and palate. A little buttery on the palate, but its also young and hot. Ice is its friend.54.99 USD per Bottle -
Kind of a hot mess and closed off at first. Ice tames it and allows nice berry, caramel and chocolate notes out, but the body is thin. Spicy, flat finish. Not one of the better foursquare product I’ve tasted. Botle is almost empty and has improved significantly. What was once squaler is now delightful. Has improved significantly. Saved the best notes and dicarded the worst. Too bad my bottle is almost gone! 12-15-23 Bottle kill. This is the end, beautiful friend This is the end, my only friend The end of our elaborate plans The end of everything that stands The right amount of water made this delicious. I will miss it.
