Ten High Whiskey
Blended American Whiskey — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed April 24, 2018 (edited February 22, 2020)Ten High has an amber appearance, which was darker than I expected. The aroma is of wood, char, caramel, dried flowers, and a touch of dry, candied fruit. Taste is of charred wood (stronger than expected), dried fruit, a bit of light brown sugar, some straight alcohol, and some corn. Mouthfeel is somewhat heavy, and Ten High does linger, in the finish, but it's not cloying. A good deal for $9.99 for a 750 ml bottle. -
Early Times Kentucky Whisky
Blended American Whiskey — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed April 23, 2018 (edited February 27, 2021)Early Times has a gold-amber appearance. Aroma is of sweet & light caramel. Also, the drinker will pick up some faint wood. Taste is of mild, charred wood, sweet caramel, alcohol, and a background charred wood. Mouthfeel is medium, and Early Times had a moderate fade. Aside from using used barrels, this is bourbon, essentially (in its presentation). A good value-priced item. RJT -
