Eagle Rare 10 Year Bourbon
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed February 22, 2020 (edited August 8, 2020)First tasted at a friend's tasting party. Nose: Dusty marshmallows, buttered cornbread, after-rain (probably from dishwasher detergent residue) Taste: like Hibiki Harmony, this comes out of the clouds from a very modest nose.

Rye — (bottled in) Vermont, Canada
Reviewed November 1, 2019 (edited January 12, 2020)First tasted at Havana Manor cigar lounge 10/30/19, gifted by a friend to me. Nose: Floral sweetness, like wildflowers. Sugared cereal.

Stranahan's Snowflake
American Single Malt — Colorado, USA
Reviewed September 3, 2019 (edited February 2, 2021)Batch number 21 Mt. Elbert First opened at the summit of Mt. Elbert on 8/31/2019 Nose: Festive holiday smells. Cloves and citrus (might be my own holiday nostalgia bias). Sweet potato. Milk chocolate. Vanilla similar to graham crackers. Taste: This is Christmas morning in a glass. Deep, complex, and intense sweetness. Queen Anne's Cordial Cherries (especially the cherry liqueur inside). Don't kill me for this... the chocolate notes remind me of cookies and cream.Stranahan's Colorado Whiskey -
Weller Special Reserve Bourbon
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed August 18, 2019 (edited August 19, 2019)Tasted at home while playing a board game outside. Nose: Confectioner's sugar, Whippy Topping, buttered cornbread, faint rye, grapefruit citrus Taste: surprisingly one dimensional compared to the nose. Breakfast cereal, sweet oak cherry note, light rye finish19.99 USD per Bottle -
Nose: Strong smoke up front immediately after pouring, but it subsides after sitting in the glass for some time (or I just get used to it). The smoke has a pleasant bitterness like coffee. Soft fruity notes add to the reminder of coffee. Subtle peach ring candy notes Taste: tasting smaller sips yields a clearer palate, which is much easier to pick apart. Normal tasting is much smokier and tougher to see through the smoke. Bittersweet dark chocolate, burnt peach cobbler, iodine, medicinal99.0 USD per Bottle
