Angel's Envy Bourbon Finished in Port Wine Barrels
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed March 17, 2017 (edited October 3, 2017)This should be available in every bar in America. The great toffee and vanilla taste is best enjoyed over a large ice block. A little water enhances the aroma. -
Rittenhouse Rye Bottled in Bond
Rye — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed December 16, 2016 (edited August 7, 2019)I have a whiskey shelf which I call the remnant shelf. After I consume about 3/4th of the bottle, the bottle gets relocated from the bar to the remnant shelf. This is where I keep tasting samples of bottles to share with guests who had never tried the such and such whiskey. The other day I grabbed a bottle to share with some friends. It was “Rittenhouse, a straight Rye whisky, bottled in bond, 100 proof”. Bottled in bond refers to American made spirit which has been aged and bottled in accordance with US government's Standards of Bottled-in-Bond Act of 1897. In order to be labeled as "Bottled-in-Bond" or "Bonded," the spirit must be the product of one distillation season, which one distiller at one specific distillery. It must be bottled and stored in federally bonded warehouses for no less than 4 years. The bottle is one of the best values on the shelf averaging $28 to $35 a bottle. The color is a beautiful soft amber with a taste of vanilla, toasted marshmallows, brown sugar and caramel. It has a rich, bold flavor and not harsh going down. This is good to drink, neat, on the rocks and mixes well in cocktails. I highly recommend it, 5 stars. -
Walking Stick Single Barrel Bourbon
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed March 22, 2016 (edited July 26, 2016)Not really sure where this bottle came from, a good friend must have thought I would like it and brought it as a gift to me. Well you may be my best friend, who ever you are. This is a semisweet with citrus, mild yet spicy vanilla. Don't know the costs, cause I didn't buy it but assume it's under $35. Check out your cabinet and see if your neighbor left you a bottle. It's gets four stars cause I don't know the cost and I didn't pay for it. -

Other Whiskey — Indiana (bottled in Tennessee), USA
Reviewed March 20, 2016 (edited April 24, 2018)15265, 9/2015 Batch. Very nice spice flavor, sweet with caramel and vanilla. It definitely needs to be over ice. Great price $23, so cost alone earns 4 stars. -
Woodford Reserve Master's Collection Sonoma-Cutrer Pinot Noir Finish

Reviewed January 22, 2016Found a bottle in the back room of the store, only had 1 bottle so I brushed the dust off and bought it. I like Angel Envy so I'm hoping they are similar.
