Tastes

Nice, but nothing too special. A little weirdn moldy note on the nose. Not as complex as I'd hoped.

Amazing rye. One of the best I've had. Definitely need to water it down. Spicy, but so perfectly balanced with some nice malt body.

Very odd. It has a strange funk to it. Tastes like some Scottish guys tried to make a Tennessee whiskey. Very malty, not very grassy, and the peat note isn't very balanced.

Amazing scotch. A deep peated note, but blended with a highland scotch to make a complex, perfectly balanced Scotch. Well done!

Pretty good, but kind of odd. I don't know if the high corn sweetness goes with the slight cherry of the french wine barrels. I'm just not sure it works. This particular mash bill may not be it. It may also be too much rye. The spice also throws off the balance of the overall whiskey. Even watering it down doesn't temper it so you can actually taste it. Not the smoothest drink, and that's disappointing.

Wow, what a fantastic scotch.

Now this is a weird rye. It's supposedly agreed on previous stout barrels, but the beer flavor that comes out is more like a pilsner on the nose. It takes the bite from the spice. It's just an odd, funky, acquired taste sort of rye.

It's good, but there's just a lot going on. Very "noisy" in the profile.
