Didn’t hate this. Maybe being in the Smokies helped its case. Last tasted 03/2022.

Always one of the smoothest blends. Medium, savory smoke, caramel, hints of cinnamon.

Overrated AF.

A good straight rye, but also one that’s perfect in an Old Fashioned. Sharp spice yet smooth finisher.

Not as bad as everyone rates it, but not great either. Definitely wouldn’t call it “Liquid Gold”. Last tasted 03/2021.

Batch #1 Bottle #833 91 Proof. Last tasted 03/2021.

Won’t leave a rating for this as it was more experimental. Original Stitzel-Weller 1972 7-Year bottle, Estate sale pickup; no proof of proper storage / provenance. Lots of burnt rubber, unfortunately. Fun to try regardless. Tasted 02/2020.

Barrel #G654 Bottle #057 113.6 Proof Last tasted 03/2021.
