Kilchoman Machir Bay (2016 Edition)
Single Malt — Islay, Scotland
Reviewed September 11, 2019 (edited September 12, 2019)Nose: burnt brisket, nectarines, honey, vanilla, a bit of barrel bitter, salt water. Taste: cherry, vanilla, butter, burnt bacon, very sweet tomato, burning hay, marshmallow, black pepper. Finish is almost non existent. Water eliminates almost all the sweet elements and really brings the bacon and burning hay. The finish then elongates into honey and bacon grease.40.0 USD per Bottle -
Nose: vanilla, honey, caramel, lemon, orange, pear, slight cake malt Taste: lemon, very very light peat, pear, apple, cake malt, honey, rosemary, parsley, I feel this gets looked over a lot because its a readily available Japanese whiskey and they let the hype take over. This is no Harmony or a single malt for sure and its a bit young, but it is good, especially for $30 or under. Treat it like a budget highland or speyside scotch rather than some mystical Japanese product and it'll be good25.0 USD per Bottle

Aged Rum — Venezuela
Reviewed September 2, 2019 (edited September 10, 2019)Nose: Bosch pear, buttercream, caramel, molasses, banana, Taste: caramel and a bit bready like a tres leches cake. Banana, tropical fruit. Slightly floral. Brown sugar. Finish is almost non existent but it goes down easy enough.

Nose: blueberries, dense earthy peat, butterscotch, caramel, corn bread, lavender. Taste: gingerbread, caramel, dry grass. Finish is a very spicy black pepper and heavy red wine graphite / leather taste. Almost no mid palette. I think I got a neck pour so that may be the issue.16.0 USD per PourTokio Pub

Nose: Corn, heavy malt, apples, maple syrup, grape, oak, citrus, dense molasses / chocolate. Taste: peanut butter, rye, caramel, molasses, syrupy after taste, dense oak. Grape sweetness is there but its actually rather weak but dense at the same time. Its heavily taken over by the oak and caramel, but when you do taste it its dense almost sour. Almost like a dense, unsweetened jam than a jelly. Water brings out some brown sugar, cinnamon, apples and cherry but otherwise dulls everything down.36.0 USD per Bottle

Nose: oak, apple, cherry, rye spice. Taste: heavy oak and apple. Brown sugar and spice. Slightly malty. Very sour oak and fruit finish. Slight chocolate banana finish. Out of all the budget bourbons I’ve tried, this is the best so far. Very fruity and spicy with a good amount of oak influence.1.0 USD per Pour
