Kirkland Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky 16 Year Sherry Cask
Single Malt — Highland , Scotland
Reviewed October 26, 2025 (edited November 28, 2025)Toasted twizzler nose gives way over time to caramel malt with a dash of spice. Soft and light bady hits the pallet and explodes into a viscous puff of peated sweetness. A hint of spice lingers. A steal for the price.50.0 USD per Bottle -
Further aging would take this to a higher level. Can absolutely taste the ex bourbon and sherry cask notes, but guessing it is too young because of the lack of balance. This is the first non Canadian whiskey that finishes like a mid range Canadian whiskey. It skirts the line between meh and make it a double.

Amador Double Barrel Bourbon Cabernet Sauvignon Barrel Finish
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed June 26, 2025Bread pudding with a tad of ethenol and faintest hints of the time spent in ex boubon casks. Light bodied in the mouth with dry, cabernet notes trying to break free. A hint of cinnamon and flash of dankness on the finish. -
Super enjoyable pour. Just a splash of water opens up the nose beautifully — revealing hints of vanilla and jam. It’s oily and smooth on the palate, with a touch of berries coming through. The real payoff is the spice on the medium finish, where bold maraschino cherry notes take center stage. Easily a daily sipper if you’re into sweet, spicy profiles with lingering cherry.

I can’t help but wonder if the experience varies from bottle to bottle. On the nose, I mostly get a sharp hit of alcohol. There’s a quick flash of stout and hint of coffee on the palate, but it fades fast into a short, unremarkable finish. I have friends who enjoy it over ice, but personally, it didn’t quite land for me. That said, I’m open to giving it another shot.
