Tastes

Visited this distillery before even hearing of it & flew the bottle home with me to quickly realize it’s readily available at your local liquor store, ha. It’s such a great and easy sipper. I drink it neat. On the nares I initially get sweet port (obvi) with notes of roasted nuts, caramel, maple syrup, powdered sugar, & brown sugar. On the palate I definitely get the delicious port with notes of fruit, toasted nuts, candied nuts, pepper, vanilla, & smoky undertones. One of my favorite sippers that is easily accessible and with an affordable price. Try their rye! 🤤

I was gifted this bottle from our sweet friends and ex neighbors in Portland, OR- Marc & Cait. The bottle comes from one of our favorite neighborhood liquor stores down the road from our old houses. “Personally selected by: Rose City Liquor #2” on 5/14/21. Tried neat. On the nares it’s nutty & spicy with notes of vanilla, oak, & fruit. On the palate it’s initially hot with notes of toasted/smoked wood and varnish. Disclosure: hard to know if I would have gotten varnish without reading the description but wow do I get it!!

On the nares it smells young with notes of corn & wheat with a side of figs. On the palate I get smooth wood

Oh of heaven was real I get that sweetness on my nares with notes of flowers, brown sugar, toasted oak, vanilla, caramel, sugar cookies. On the palate it’s hot initially but then I get angel food cake, vanilla, almonds, & nutmeg

Bottle from flaviar membership. Tried neat. On the nose I get spice with notes of vanilla icing, nutmeg, clove, & fruit. To the palate it’s sweeter than expected, light, and thin with notes of peppercorn & peach.

This bottle was gifted to me by my friend Adam. Tried neat. Smells sweet on the nose with notes of fruit- like pineapple & pears to be more specific, honey, & oak. On the palate it is sweet with notes of tea, honey, vanilla, & slight lemongrass

Received the bottle as a gift from friends (Meghan & Printess). Tried neat. I do get slight oak to the nares with hints of sour cherries. To the palate it’s spicy with note of pepper and cinnamon.

On the nares I get cinnamon, vanilla, cinnamon spice cake. Hot on the palate with cinnamon twists and spice

Have had multiple times but prior to becoming a distiller fan. Tried neat at the comfort of my home. On the nares I get Vanilla, oak, toffee, dark chocolate, & cherries. On the palate I get spice, red hots, oak, vanilla & rarities of black pepper. To me it gets better with every pour as my palate becomes more experienced and versified in bourbons
