Aroma: pretty weak, hints of citrus, apple, charred wood Flavor: sweet apples, menthol, and a huge amount of charred wood. Doesn't really have a sweet oak I was hoping for instead it's just really woody Overall: Not a fan at all of this one, it's just way too wood forward and to me doesn't mesh with the fruit flavors I do get

Aroma: citrus, hint of cherry, floral, perfumey, charred oak. Smells more like a rye than anything. Flavor: very citrus forward, definitely a strong tangerine note, slight bitterness throughout, vanilla borderline creamsicle, barrel spice, hint of minerals Overall: Very unique and rather complex. The traditional bourbon flavors are there but only slightly, this is very bright and citrus forward. This would be fun to incorporate into a cocktail but just isn't my jam for drinking neat.

Caribou Crossing Single Barrel Canadian Whisky
Canadian — Canada
Reviewed January 22, 2021 (edited August 13, 2021)Aroma: paint thinner, musty and ever so slightly floral. Very weak overall Flavor: sweet vanilla and a little caramel. Tough to distinguish any other notes. Has a slight bitter finish Overall: very boring and honestly worse than most bottom shelf whiskeys -
Old Forester Single Barrel Bourbon Barrel Strength
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed December 11, 2020Garfields Pick aroma: Really pleasant and surprisingly didn't burn nearly as much as you would think. Notes of cherry, brown sugar, caramel, honey, rye spice, hint of ripened stone fruit flavor: up front is a dose of luxardo cherry immediately followed by a big kick of rye and barrel spice. The finish goes for days with cherry oak and rye. After each sip you get a huge kentucky hug that will keep you warm on a cold winter night overall: I was hesitant to buy this as i have heard mixed reviews but I'm a big OF fan so i figured it was worth the try. I can easily say this is one of the better bottles i have picked up all year. It's everything i like in OF but turned up to 11. fantastic pick80.0 USD per Bottle -
Koval Single Barrel Bourbon
Bourbon — Illinois, USA
Reviewed October 9, 2020 (edited January 17, 2021)Aroma: saw dust, sweet malt, some oak spice Flavor: Definitely young, has a corn sweetness and a fair amount of barrel spice. Not too complex, however, I can see this being great in a cocktail Overall: definitely not worth the price. I wish that koval would push out some longer aged whiskey because it has potential and they have been distilling for quite some time. Unfortunately it's just too young
