Mezcal Vago Espadín by Emigdio Jarquín
Mezcal Joven — El Nanche, Mihuatlan, Mexico
Reviewed April 19, 2022Received from my flaviar sample box of mezcals. Having somewhat a difficult time figuring out if this one is correct so this is labeled: Mezcal vago espadin de emigdio. It is 50.1%. Tried neat. On the nares it’s smoky,earthy, and spicy with notes of pepper. On the palate I get spice, pepper, earthy, & coriander. Somewhat hot finish in the back of my throat. -
Tried neat from my flaviar taster box. On the nares it is very peaty and earthy with notes of dried parsley, unripened fruit, dirt, and something in between crayon shavings, homemade putty, and wood shavings. On the palate it’s a bit harsh with notes of spice & peaty with a hot and dry finish. I’m missing the smoke and smoothness here. Probably won’t be a sipper for me..

Willett Family Estate Small Batch Rye 4 Year
Rye — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed April 12, 2022 (edited April 13, 2022)Tried neat. It is smooth and earthy on the nares with notes of black pepper, caramel, oat, mint, fresh cut grass. First touch to the palate it’s smooth with a bold amount of mint, spearmint to be more specific, with notes of honey and cola. Leaves beautiful legs on the glass. Not particularly typical of a rye for me which makes me love it even more. -

George Dickel No. 8
Tennessee Whiskey — Tennessee, USA
Reviewed April 4, 2022 (edited April 8, 2022)When In Utah, you just get something you have never had bc…Slim pickings friends! Purchased from a state store down the road from Zion National Park while camping. This was the only liquor store within a 1 hr distance, from our understanding. Google maps didn’t even pull this up, heard from a local lol. Tried neat. On the nares I get fruit, wood, slight vanilla. On the palate it’s smooth, sweet with notes of cream brûlée and nuts. I am not at all mad at it. #maythelordopen #blessedbethefruitZion National Park
