Lonehand Whiskey
Tennessee Whiskey — Tennessee , USA
Reviewed December 15, 2024 (edited December 16, 2024)The nose pops with super glue or adhesive fumes, then a second chance generously gifts a note of artificial cherry like in the pull apart Twizzlers, The palate begins watery and unpleasant but blessedly improves into the finish, but not by much. The finish is tangy but veiled; it leaves you wanting (specifically, a better whiskey.) I poured the rest of my glass into some eggnog, hopefully that will improve it. *sips* Yes, that did the trick. -
Grangestone Highland Single Malt Sherry Cask Finish

Reviewed September 5, 2024The nose has notes of honey roasted nuts, red wine, briney sea air, and mild peat. The palate matches the nose with notes of red wine, sweet corn, sea salt, and peat.

Grangestone Highland Single Malt Bourbon Cask Finish
Single Malt — Highlands, Scotland
Reviewed September 5, 2024 (edited November 8, 2024)The nose boasts notes of dusty corn, old books, grains, vanilla, and lemon. The palate is mild then turns hot like Hot Tamales candy with caramel candy notes. The finish is harsh with medium long length. -
The nose was repulsive with neutral grain spirits and nail polish remover, with lemon and cinnamon attempting to save the experience. The palate was also in battle with cherry cough syrup facing maple syrup and wax candy. The finish was harsh, short, and left a bitter aftertaste. I did not finish the 50ml bottle. I would encourage any and all to steer clear.

This kingly bouquet is sweet and peaty, with smoke and pine and cherry aromatic pipe tobacco, and savory too with smoked BBQ meat. The grand palate is vast in its array of tastes and flavors ranging from sweet to peaty, salty to smoky, and an oily mouthfeel keeps it around for a while. The finish is warm, smooth and savory but short, knowing you’ll be wanting to return for more.
