Death's Door White Whisky

I have to admit I'm not the biggest white whiskey fan. I don't have many bottles and the one's I do have I use for cocktails only. Death's Door white whiskey is one of the few that I've seen in multiple stores, so I figured it must be one of the better one's out there. The nose is a bit uninspiring, with a bit of malt and rye bread. The palate is decent enough, nothing to write home about, but it has a touch of vanilla and pepper and is semi-oily. The finish has some anise and a bit of sweetness. I was expecting more burn, but there was little there. Overall, I'm surprised at how poorly this is reviewed. Taking it for what it is, I think it's a pretty decent white whiskey. It obviously is nowhere near as good as normal aged whiskies, but for the category it seems fine enough. I probably still wouldn't try this neat again, too many better things out there, but it seems to hold up well in the few cocktails that do call for white whiskey.

Should have looked it up before ordering. Did not realize it was a white whiskey. Would probably mix well, but not a sipper.

Personally I did not enjoy it at all. I love strong drinks and whiskies, but this almost made me spit it out when I first tasted it. Not my type of whisky

Great

Not good. May improve in a cocktail but somehow I doubt it.
