Mono de Calenda Jabalí
Mezcal Joven — Oaxaca, Mexico
Reviewed January 23, 2025 (edited January 24, 2025)Tried neat thanks to @Looneyhead and my lil Christmas taster :) To start, earth & green agave just slap me in the face but in the most gentle and refreshing way. It’s woody and smoky which is always a plus. I swear I initially got slight notes of cocoa on the nose but clearly that was my imagination. To the palate it’s deliciously spicy, warm, and with the most cozy and long lasting finish. -

High West Cask Collection, blend of straight bourbon whiskeys finished in cabernet sauvignon barrels
Bourbon — Utah, USA
Reviewed January 16, 2025Tried neat thanks to my lil taster from @looneyhead On the nose I get lots of grain, like wheat, and spice. Tried to let it sit and open up and it didn’t so I added a small ice cube. Andddd should have maybe gone with a couple drops of water but whatecer. Slight notes of vanilla & caramel, oak, and char to the nose and weird enough.. brine from a pickle jar which is brief and very interesting. I’m going to have to revisit this one again some day -
Tried neat thanks to a lil taster from @Looneyhead On the nose it’s fruit forward with notes of dark maraschino cherries, plum, sherry, vanilla, mint, & rye. On the palate it’s initially spicy but then becomes smooth and delicious with notes of brown sugar, vanilla, mint, cinnamon. Nice legs on the glass
