Catoctin Creek Roundstone Rye Distiller's Edition 92 Proof
Rye — Virginia, USA
Reviewed December 2, 2021Nice rye. Spice is mitigated and fruit, mostly prune, comes through strongly. -
Wyoming Whiskey Small Batch Bourbon
Bourbon — Wyoming, USA
Reviewed December 1, 2021 (edited January 2, 2022)Nice bourbon. Hug is rambunctious, especially given its relatively moderate 88 proof. Caramel predominates though, and notes are uniformly pleasant. Caramel apple, oak, vanilla, and a little biscuit -
Ben Milam Single Barrel Bourbon
Bourbon — Tennessee (bottled in Texas), USA
Reviewed November 21, 2021Nice, full and rich bourbon. Caramel and toast. Love a single barrel, 12 year, cask strength bourbon.150.0 USD per Bottle -
1792 Full Proof Single Barrel Select
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed October 16, 2021 (edited October 7, 2022)Rich, full bourbon. Sherry’s single barrel. Proof is high, but flavors are robust enough to generally hang -
Old Medley 12 Year
Bourbon — Kentucky (bottled in California), USA
Reviewed October 16, 2021 (edited January 10, 2024)Very good bourbon, at a great price for a 12 year. I’ve enjoyed Medley’s Wathen lines, and enjoy this too. 90 proof keeps it smooth, but isn’t as soft as an 80. Extended aging imparts good notes of oak, caramel, vanilla, and a twist of lemon. -
Wilderness Trail Family Reserve Single Barrel Cask Strength Bourbon (Wheated Bourbon)
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed October 9, 2021 (edited July 11, 2022)Schneider’s single barrel. Strong (it is barrel proof) but the flavors are nice. Smoothed cedar with vanilla. Generally a fan of wheated mash bills, but at this strength perhaps a little more rye could better harmonize the proof with the grain -
Peerless Double Oak Bourbon
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed September 30, 2021 (edited October 18, 2021)Nice bourbon, unsurprisingly very woody. Fresh cedar notes with the char also coming through strongly. Real lumber yard vibes. ABV is strong, and limited age makes it a little unruly, but on the whole a fun and interesting release from a Louisville neo-staple
