Kirkland Tennessee Sour Mash Whiskey

Maple syrup nose. Rich and oily palate. Much more complex than I expected. Low proof, but we’ll worth the money especially for a mixer.

Kirkland TN Whiskey (Age Stated 4 Years) *NOSE: Surprisingly Dense and Bold. Dessert-like with Maple Syrup, Vanilla, Brown Sugar, Cocoa Powder, and Oak Spice. *NEAT: Nose promised Bold, but Palate falls short. Light , almost Floral. Juicy Fruit Gum, Oak Char and Tannins, with a hint of Spice. Finishes with a Mild TN Hug ,leaving Oak Char and Mint Coating the Palate. *SPLASH: Sweetens the Tannins just a bit, but doesn't change much else. *VERDICT: About what I expected from sourced Dickel. Basically just a less refined Dickel No.8. Serviceable Neat or on the Rocks, but definitely more suited for Highballs and Whisky Sours. $26 for a 1.75L bottle makes this serviceable workhorse whisky one to keep around.

A JD knockoff, for sure. Not too badly done…I use it as a mixer. Very wimpy at 80 proof.

Very smooth! Nose is a nice autumn maple sweetness, the sip is incredibly mellow and smooth, but on the other hand also lacks some flavor. Definitely maple heavy though, which we all love. Watery/refreshing linger. Nothing wrong with it, but would like a little more refined tastes.

$25.99 for a 1.75L. Tastes just like Jack Daniels.
