Nose: You first smell the smoke and ash but it makes way for bergamot, orange zest, lemon slices and some hay very little though . It then become floral which is very interesting Palate: it’s deliciously Well rounded, up its honey, Vanilla, smoke. It does have the touch of Peat with oily sweetness. A few drops of water really open it up. Finish: it’s Smoky and long very satisfying and engulfs you in the Sea spray, dry grass, a touch of ash and citrus. Colour: golden or light amber. Overall: Its very classy and Smoky, fruity, coastal all at the same time. Well worth trying if want to stay on the low end of peat.58.95 CAD per Bottle

This is one of those unsung hero’s out there. NOSE You will smell the Oak as expected with chocolate and peanuts, leather and char. PALATE On the palate you taste the Oak again with dark fruit, caramel, peanuts and baking spice. Add a few drops of water and you will taste the honey as it opens up. FINISH This has a Medium to Long finish with the Roasted corn and again the oak. The baking spice eventually does fade out but it’s a satisfying finish overall.

Ron Zacapa 23 Sistema Solera Rum
Aged Rum — Guatemala
Reviewed June 11, 2020 (edited August 2, 2020)The smooth aroma of Ron Zacapa is filled with honeyed with caramel and fruitiness. It’s absolutely delicious with the Sweet and mouth-warming with hints of oak, vanilla, dried fruits and some liquorice. The finish is long as I expected from it and it’s sweet with vanilla, coffee, smoke and honey. It has the very little amount of marzipan that does fills your palate though in a surprising way. It’s such a delicious treat.79.99 CAD per Bottle -
Blanton's Original Single Barrel
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed June 2, 2020 (edited November 6, 2021)I smell vanilla, caramel and toffee on the nose and I taste chocolate orange on the tongue. The finish is medium that does leave a satisfactory feeling. It’s overall a nice bourbon for $50-60 range and I unsure if that justifies the hype and the huge demand. The bottle looks very pretty but I would rather have the Blantons gold than the original.65.4 CAD per Bottle -
Jack Daniel's Single Barrel Barrel Proof Tennessee Whiskey
Tennessee Whiskey — Tennessee, USA
Reviewed May 28, 2020 (edited July 26, 2020)"The whiskey is amber in colour with notes of sweet vanilla, toasty oak, citrus, dried fruit, brown sugar and black pepper. I first tasted it in Glencairn glass where I experienced a strong burn immediately on the nose and then I tasted it in the Norlan glass with a few drops of water which opened it up. The glass itself removed the whiskey burn so for people who are experiencing the burn please try with a better glass for a better experience. It’s an awesome whiskey to be enjoyed in moderation." -
