Sweet aroma with caramel and brown sugar dominant. Strong, rich flavor, with caramel, rye spice, clove, a bit of butter, and a lot of oak present. An unusual dram, but a very nice one. Best Canadian whiskey I’ve had so far. I’d certainly buy a full-size bottle. 3 cl sample from The Premium Whisky Advent Calendar (2020 Edition).

It’s somewhat sweet in the nose, with vanilla and a tiny bit of brown sugar present. On the palette, there’s a melon-like flavor, but at other times I get some green apple. There’s significant alcohol burn. I’m not a big fan of Irish whiskey, and this sample hasn’t changed my mind. 3 cl sample from The Premium Whisky Advent Calendar (2020 Edition).

I’m not a big fan of tequila, but was given this bottle by someone who doesn’t know anything about tequila or what I drink. I’m not really into cocktails, so I drank this neat. This añejo has the aroma and flavor of agave and buttered popcorn or caramel corn. Surprisingly, I liked the cleaner taste of the blanco by the same company a bit better than this añejo.28.99 USD per BottleTotal Wine & More

El Padrino De Mi Tierra Blanco
Tequila Blanco — Jalisco, Mexico
Reviewed March 30, 2021 (edited March 28, 2022)I’m not a big fan of tequila, but was given this bottle by someone who doesn’t know anything about tequila or what I drink. I’m not really into cocktails, so I drank this neat. This blanco has the aroma and flavor of agave and spicy black pepper, and a bright, citrus flavor appears in the finish.

Very strong, floral, and perfume-like aromas and flavors, with jasmine, violet candy, and orange-blossom water prominent, plus a bit of rose water and spice appearing in the finish. It’s sweet, being a honey liqueur, but not overly so. I didn’t really care for it initially, but once I got used to the perfume-like quality, I really started to enjoy it.22.99 USD per BottleTotal Wine & More
