    I love this one. Yhe rye is straight forward but the age is there. The rum and sherry really play well together. A super enjoyable finished rye that one to seek out if you enjoy that type of dram.

    This is one oustanding pour. Very rich and flavorful, and the proof is spot on. Perfect harmony of honey, vanilla and cereal notes. Maybe a tiny touch of lemon. Im not sure that you can do a whole lot better with a bourbon cask finish. Absolutely love this one.

    This is absolutely fabulous. Its is a little funky and musty but then takes a huge turn to spearmint candy. The port brings a touch of fruit and swetness on the back end. Super unique and excellently crafted. Lucky to get a bottle.

    If you are a fan of Glen Scotia, then this one is for you. I get no hint of Springbank at all. Nice price, drinkable and pretty available from what i have seen.

    This one really surprised me. I wasn’t expecting a lot but not sure why. Huge fan of Billy Walker. Absolutely love this. The peat smoke isnt super prominent but it’s definitely there. Its not a medicinal peat but more camfire smoke. It blends perfectly with the sherry. Wonderfully crafted and super enjoyable.

    Really enjoying this one. You cant beat a Tokaji finish and it goes perfect with the age on this one. Grabbed on sale for $70 and may go back for another. I would not be disappointed if i had paid full price.

    I am really impressed with this sweet mash rye. In a market where rye varies greatly, this one is right up my alley. Spice, rich, sweet and a nice proof.

    This is one of the most interesting liquors that i have had. This flavor profile is insane. If you are looking for a traditional smoky Mezcal, this isnt it. This is a whole other animal that might change your mind about what a mezcal can be. I can see how this could be very polarizing and not for everyone but i am a huge fan!

    Love these annual releases but this one is just what im looking for. Love the sweet peat. Perfectly balanced and superbly finished to bring out all the flavors from the casks that were used. Excellent pour, definitely grabbing a back up or 2.
