Surprised but the low rating on this, it's a decently tasty, slightly floral mezcal. Outrageously expensive, but I got it as a present so can't grumble too much.

Absolutely delicious, complex, rich, amazingness. Is it 3x as good as the Nikka from the barrel we had last? No. But damn it's still great.

Stunning, I know it's not technically Japanese whisky by the full definition but holy shit it drinks well. Far too smashable for 50%+.

Complex, dark chocolate, almost peaty. Totally changes with a drop of water. Love it both ways.

Smooth, caramel, honey. Pretty subtle, would be a good daily drinker.

Always forget how much I like this stuff, for something so widely available for not much money it's really good. Sweet, smokey, honeyed goodness.

Lovely oaky peaty, slightly hot, crap-labelled Japanese single malt. Would drink again.

Mega-peaty = mega-goody. I should probably get a job as a whisky review man.
