Lagavulin Offerman Edition Caribbean Rum Cask Finish
Single Malt — Islay, Scotland
Reviewed January 11, 2025Warm peat smoke on the nose with just a hint of tum sweetness. Sweet palate with rum sugar. The finish is sweet and smooth, and then kicked with pepper and peat and a little chili. A yummy whiskey. Makes you want to sit and reflect. -
Like a warm summer’s day laying in the hay at a nectarine orchard enjoying a creme caramel. This wiskey has an inviting nose, a sweet palete, and an easy finish. Vanilla custard and hay on the nose with ripe nectarines. The palete is creamy with caramel sweetness. The finish is mild with oak and some heat. Tasted in a Copita glass.

Kirkland Bottled-in-Bond Kentucky Bourbon by Barton 1792
Bourbon — Kentucky , USA
Reviewed October 18, 2024 (edited October 20, 2024)This bourbon is like sitting down to a slice of Apple Cobbler while sitting outside in an apple orchard in the fall. Fresh tart fall apples on the nose gives way to a vanilla and oat pallet and exceptionally smooth finish which brings some heat, like black pepper and caramel. An exceptional value for the quality. My only wish is that it had a little more power behind the flavors. It’s all very smooth and mellow.25.0 USD per Bottle -
This whiskey is like a scoop of apple and vanilla Ice cream covered in chili caramel sauce and topped with a sprig of mint. Sweet caramel and mint on the nose. The palate is sweet and spicy warming up to a full creamy mouthfeel. The finish is a strong pepper and chili spice, fading as quickly as it stings. Adding a little water brings out a little more apples and mellows the finish.  Its a yummy whiskey and it has an especially fun mouthfeel!

This whiskey is like snacking on Cinnamon Ginger Brown Sugar fried Plantains. A beautiful dark color. This whiskey has a nose like fried plantains in butter and brown sugar. The palate is light and just a little sweet. The absence of a creamy mouthfeel is noted. It’s strange to say: the whiskey is “wet” like water on my tonge. But she more than makes up for it with a huge finish of plantains, vanilla, brown sugar caramel and warming ginger.

Rabbit Hole Boxergrail Kentucky Straight Rye
Rye — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed January 15, 2024 (edited January 25, 2024)This whiskey is like the first time your grandma handed you a bowl of warm fruit cobbler with vanilla ice cream. It’s new, interesting, familiar, and comforting. Plums and cardimum on the nose. The palate is sweet and the finish is like hot raspberry sauce over vanilla ice cream.
