Glenmorangie Quinta Ruban Port Cask Finish 14 Year
Single Malt — Highlands, Scotland
Reviewed August 22, 2021Redder I believe than the 12 year with lovely ruby tinting. The profile is essentially the same, but it seems the cask comes through a bit more. Dark fruit (cherry, raisin), chocolate, oak, port. Moderately sweet and spicy, rich, woody with a short finish. -
Nearly black in color. Not quite so sweet on the nose as Kahlua. Coffee of course dominates, with notes of agave, vanilla, cola and caramel. Sweet tasting, like a dessert topping. Very minimally detectable alcohol. Smooth and relatively thick. The taste is nice, but alone a small quantity is plenty.

Abasolo Ancestral Corn Whisky
Corn — Mexico, Mexico
Reviewed August 22, 2021 (edited April 14, 2022)Golden. Agave, butter, corn nose. Perhaps a touch of caramel or toffee. There’s a hint of spice behind moderate sweetness with flavors of cornbread and light agave. It took some getting used to, as my brain initially fixated on the agave-esqueness of it, but it is growing on me. Not great, or of comparison with my preferred Scotch or bourbon, but interestingly different and surprisingly smooth.
