High West Campfire (Discontinued)
Blended American Whiskey — (bottled in Utah), Multiple Countries
Reviewed December 29, 2018 (edited December 15, 2019)Would honestly put in it the category of novelty whisky. Your standard bourbon and rye notes with a really spicy aftertaste. Like the rye spice was turned up to 11. Very interesting but not smokey at all.16.0 USD per PourBub City -
Nose: honey, biscuit, vanilla, touch of fruit like apricots, grass, Taste: same as nose with a lasting fruit finish and a bit of sharp citrus. Adding water brings on some barrel bitter. Really sweet and friendly. I'd compare it to Jameson but sweeter. Great starter scotch especially if you like the sweeter stuff like sweet Bourbons.9.09 USD per Pour

Colonel E.H. Taylor, Jr. Small Batch Bottled in Bond Bourbon
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed December 28, 2018Nose: Cherry, cinnamon, oak, red apple, vanilla, grass, Taste: Licorice, red apple, brown sugar, oak, caramel, corn dust / sweetness, black pepper, sage, rosemary, candy corn Really smooth but leaves almost no finish. Definitely have to water it down to get some of the flavors going. It is for sure high quality and represents the price, but it does feel somewhat lacking as the flavors are more hidden and nuanced rather than a big hitting bourbon like Eagle Rare or similar. Would not recommend for the novice drinker.55.0 USD per Bottle -
Nose: Licorice, aniseed, dill Taste: Barrel bitter, dill, wet grass / lemongrass, licorice, rye bread maltiness,aniseed, green apple, a bit of vanilla, lavender / dark intense rose / floral, cinnamon with clove and brown sugar, Dill is by far the dominant note, always there. There is some complexity to it, but it gets buried very quickly by the dill. Had to add a few drops of water to open it up. Very good for the rye lover probably. This is my first rye so it is a little weird.32.0 USD per Bottle

Nose: sweet candied peach / peach rings. Plums. Malty pancake. Semisweet chocolate. Plums. Oak. Taste: very light peat. Raisin. Bitter oak. Pancake maltiness. Plums. Very tart lime. Really dense sea salt. Parsley. Cilantro. Basil. Red apple, brown sugar / butterscotch. Peach rings. Major league impressive. Tons of character at only 40%. Adding water takes all the subtleties away but intensifies the finish. I can see how people would dislike it though. Lots of intense bitter and sour flavors but really wonderful.46.0 USD per Bottle

Wolfburn Northland
Single Malt — Highlands, Scotland
Reviewed December 6, 2018 (edited March 11, 2019)Nose: Biscuit / graham cracker maltyness. Caramel. Vanilla. Lemony citrus. Apricot / light plum. Some Oak /mustiness. Taste: Sweet vanilla, almost powdered sugar. Light plums / apricots / almost dark cherry. Strong oak / mustiness. Sage / basil. Some light floral notes. Very sweet upfront, turning citrusy and finishing with an oak bitterness. Water intensifies the finish but adds some sweetness at the end to take some of the bitter away. Added a few drops of Islay Mist 8 and got some brown sugar and cinnamon notes. Very light almost white wine color. Decent legs. Alcohol is very bitey despite only being 46% Non age statement but no color and not chill filtered. Originally it was $60, but I got it on clearance for 45. It's a lovely dram but not worth the msrp in my opinion. 45 is a decent price for it. I would actually say it's a decent one to get to convert someone from bourbon to scotch if they like the more intense oak notes and don't mind the sweetness.45.0 USD per Bottle
