New Riff 4 Year Single Barrel Bourbon
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed June 2, 2021 (edited September 14, 2021)Slightly funky oaky nose. Dried fruits. Slightly peanut-y. Cinnamon. Pleasant and light palate. Marshmallow. Tasty, but low proof (105) so doesn’t have much heat. Good pour. I use the rating scale below. Distiller uses a scale of 5 and I use a scale of 10, but I’m sure you’re not too drunk to do the math! 1. Disgusting - So bad I poured it out. 2. Poor - I wouldn't consume by choice. 3. Bad - Multiple flaws. 4. Below average - Not bad, but many things I'd rather have. 5. Good - Just average. 6. Very Good - Better than average. 7. Great - Well above average. 8. Excellent - In a league of its own. 9. Incredible - An all-time favorite. 10. Perfect -
Still Austin The Musician Cask Strength
Bourbon — Texas, USA
Reviewed June 2, 2021 (edited April 18, 2022)This is very good bourbon. Corn forward nose. Tobacco, caramel, honey, dark cherry. Palate brings the heat. Peach cobbler. More dark cherry. Long finish. Palate sometimes similar to OF1920. Very close runner up to GB, but at a fraction of the cost. Would recommend to anyone! I use the rating scale below.

Jack Daniel's Tennessee Tasters' Selection Reunion Barrel #1
Tennessee Whiskey — Tennessee, USA
Reviewed May 19, 2021 (edited September 14, 2021)Again, definitely always worth a shot to pick up a JD “craft” whiskey because they do a great job making unique bottles. This one is true to its name - a bourbon with some dried grape / red wine flavors on the back end. Decent juice but not the best of the recent release. I use the rating scale below. Distiller uses a scale of 5 and I use a scale of 10, but I’m sure you’re not too drunk to do the math! 1. Disgusting - So bad I poured it out. 2. Poor - I wouldn't consume by choice. 3.

Jack Daniel's Tennessee Tasters' Selection Hickory Smoked Finish
Tennessee Whiskey — Tennessee, USA
Reviewed May 19, 2021 (edited June 3, 2022)JD does a great job with the “craft” whiskeys they produce. Always very unique and worth picking up. This one tastes like a barbecue potato chip and has notes of what sitting around a campfire tastes like. Super interesting. I use the rating scale below.

Willett Family Estate Single Barrel Kentucky Straight Bourbon 6 Year
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed May 19, 2021 (edited September 14, 2021)Very unique bourbon. Had a small taste, but it is unlike anything I’ve had before. Very light, herbal nose but palate is very dry grape and medicinal. Would need another dram to get more notes, but it’s definitely unique. I use the rating scale below. Distiller uses a scale of 5 and I use a scale of 10, but I’m sure you’re not too drunk to do the math! 1. Disgusting - So bad I poured it out. 2. Poor - I wouldn't consume by choice. 3.

Rye — Tennessee, USA
Reviewed May 19, 2021 (edited September 14, 2021)Damn good. Was blinded this and I thought it was a high rye bourbon. Definitely drinks lower than the proof.

Little Book Chapter 2: Noe Simple Task
Other Whiskey — Multiple Countries
Reviewed May 13, 2021 (edited September 14, 2021)Just OK. Very sweet nose due to being Canadian. Slight pepper and rye spice. It not overly spicy. Very similar to Alberta Premium but not as good.
