A typical Macallan Sherry nose and taste, but amped up with the higher ABV. A nice cocoa flavor as well. Very nice.

2019 bottling. You can taste the impetuous nature of it's youth, but there is complexity here beyond its age. An excellent flavor profile with a satisfying finish. Definitely worth grabbing if you can find it.

A nice light fruity nose. On the tongue, gorgeous chocolate. Not a hint of chocolate, BOOM CHOCOLATE! A lovely finish as the chocolate fades into lovely nuance in a medium length finish. Definitely an Irish whiskey, but the bog oak definitely added something unique.

Tarnished Truth 3 Year Old High Rye Straight Bourbon

It has some great elements, but somehow everything seems muted. Like a great song with the volume turned down too low. This is my initial couple of tastes with just a drop of water. Will try a bit more water next time around and hopefully it will open the flavors more.

Just reminds me an awful lot of the 21-year-old fine oak, but at a fraction of the price. Lovely Sherry notes along with some lovely fruits, cannot endorse enough.

Watering this to about 50% opens an already amazing Scotch into something truly incredible.
