Sagamore Spirit Barrel Select Rye
Rye — Maryland, USA
Reviewed August 24, 2021 (edited August 28, 2021)Right off, a heavy jolt of rye hits the nose, followed by ethanol and more subtle notes of corn, wood, orange and caramel. Lightly sweet and honeyed, and very lightly fruity; very spicy, dry and woody. Hot and spicy all over. Makes a killer Sazerac.65.0 USD per Bottle -
Crystal clear. Aroma dominated by orange peel, but some vodka does come through. It’s far from complex, but that isn’t necessarily a bad thing, as the orange still doesn’t come off cloying or overbearing. The taste is very sweet, but the high abv and some fair bitterness lend a little balance. Feels thick.

Balcones Texas Pot Still Bourbon
Bourbon — Texas, USA
Reviewed August 24, 2021 (edited August 28, 2021)Sort of soft smell, corn of course, but also nuts, coffee, brown sugar, wheat bread, caramel, oak and vanilla. Little sweetness; more spice; coffee on the palate. Lots of grain and charred wood flavor. Roasted coffee and cinnamon in a short finish.26.0 USD per Bottle -
Bombay Original London Dry Gin (40%)
London Dry Gin — England
Reviewed August 24, 2021 (edited October 24, 2024)Botanical, herbal, earthy nose-very green and a hint spicy. The botanicals on the back are well blended and even, with a few being mildly individually detectable, but nothing really standing out. So it comes off relatively neutral. Lightly sweet with a good herbal kick to the back of the palate. Solid everyday gin.
