Rieger's 6 Year Bottled in Bond Straight Rye (Fall 2021)
Rye — Missouri, USA
Reviewed August 23, 2021Light nose with a hint of grain. Beautiful amber color. Silky mouth feel. Orange flavor right off with a slight biscuit taste that moves quickly to heat. I hunted for the pepper but never found it. Orange licorice sticks around briefly at the end. Smooth from start to finish. I’d buy this one again. -
George Dickel 11 Year Bottled in Bond Tennessee Whisky (Fall 2008)
Tennessee Whiskey — Tennessee, USA
Reviewed August 19, 2021Subtle nose. Starts with a nice, sweet caramel flavor that moves effortlessly to vanilla and spice. A nice warmth near the end with a lingering hint of licorice. This whiskey has a light feel from beginning to end. This one is well done. -
George Dickel 15 Year Tennessee Single Barrel
Tennessee Whiskey — Tennessee, USA
Reviewed August 18, 2021Strong alcohol nose. Starts light and moves quickly to caramel and vanilla then a lingering heat. I thought that this one would be smoother given the age and proof. -

Belle Meade Cask Strength Reserve Bourbon
Bourbon — Indiana (bottled in Tennessee), USA
Reviewed November 1, 2020 (edited November 25, 2020)I’ve yet to grasp the vernacular to elegantly describe a bourbon. The best that I can offer anything that I buy is the compliment of buying it again or the silent criticism of not buying it again. I like this bourbon and will buy it again. -
