JP Wiser's Deluxe comes in a newly designed bottle that is visually impressive. However, the whiskey's taste could be improved. While it has a pleasant toffee aroma, the taste is one-dimensional, featuring toffee notes throughout. It is not a great mixer, but it is enjoyable when sipped neat. The whiskey leaves room for improvement, but it has potential. Overall, it is a decent choice for those who appreciate a simple, smooth whiskey.13.99 USD per Bottle

Cutty Sark's 12-year-old Scotch blend is superior to its regular Scotch. It offers exquisite aromas of oak, citrus, caramel, vanilla, and toffee. The smooth entry of this Scotch has a palate with notes of oak, citrus, fig, and toffee. The finish is a perfect blend of toffee, citrus, and a subtle hint of fig. Cutty 12-year-old Scotch is a great choice for mixing with 2 parts water or soda.20.99 USD per Bottle

Isle of Skye's 12-year-old Scotch blend is better quality than the 8-year-old. There is a 7-dollar increase in the Isle of Skye 12-year-old price.

The Isle of Skye's 8-year-old Scotch blend is of similar quality to Johnnie Walker Red. It has a rich aroma of smoke, peat, caramel, and heather that greets the nose. The entry is smooth, and the palate offers a mix of smoke, peat, and heather. The finish is short, with a hint of bitter spice. Drinking it straight is good, but it's not recommended to mix it with water or soda.18.99 USD per Bottle

Chivas Regal 12-year-old whisky has a rich and inviting aroma, with notes of caramel, milk chocolate, and honeycomb. However, while the initial taste is smooth and pleasant, it lacks the complexity and depth that some whisky enthusiasts crave. The finish is short, with a mild sweetness of caramel and milk chocolate. It is best consumed neat, allowing the flavors to fully develop without being diluted by other drinks or cocktails. If you're interested in trying this whisky, I suggest waiting for a sale or for the price to drop to around $20. Alternatively, you may want to consider Johnnie Walker Black, Haig Dimple 15-year-old, or Naked Grouse, which are all excellent options that offer more value at the same price point.31.99 USD per Bottle

Seagram's VO Gold is a decent whiskey, but its price point doesn't match its quality. While it has a smooth and creamy taste, the short and bitter finish with a lack of depth and complexity doesn't justify its premium price. It is not a great option for mixing drinks due to its neutral taste. Instead, you can go for Crown Royal at the same price, which offers better taste and quality. Or, for a lower price, you can go for Canadian Club Original or Rich and Rare Reserve, which offer better value for money without compromising on the taste.24.99 USD per Bottle

Seagram VO is of lower shelf quality but has a higher shelf price. It is of the same low quality as Canadian Mist or Black Velvet but the price is much higher. The nose is creamy corn and ethanol. The entry is bland with a Johnny One Note of creamy corn with ethanol on the palate and finish. A faint shadow of its former glory of the 6-year-old seventies VO before the breakup of Seagrams.17.99 USD per Bottle

Canadian Club Classic 12 Year
Canadian — Canada
Reviewed December 4, 2023 (edited February 13, 2024)Canadian Club Whisky 12-year-old is a letdown. It doesn't taste as good as the Canadian Club Original, neither in the past nor now. Initially, the aroma is appealing, with hints of oak, vanilla, and spice. However, the texture is weak and watery, with a taste of feeble toffee and a faint oak aftertaste.17.99 USD per Bottle -
Rebel 100 Straight Rye Whiskey Is a well two-year-old rye for mixing only at bars for its low price. Raw oak and caramel aromas greet the nose.
