Slaughter House American Whiskey

Aroma - apples and caramel dominate the nose. Oak and vanilla are secondary. Decently balanced and quite nice. taste- port, port and more port. Huge watered down effect in the middle then the heat arrives a minute later. Interesting… unique… not sure I’m a fan. Overall- Probably best consumed as a post dinner beverage. The port and bourbon seem to clash a little bit here though more than I would have liked. At 44% I’m surprised at just hot much heat remains on the lips. The port quality is a huge punch in the face but the heat ends up as the victor. Honestly… save your money. This would be fine to purchase if you had a big family get together where some members like wine/port/bourbon…. It’d be a nice offering in that setting. But if it’s just you… not worth it. There’s a time and a place for this.

Interesting! Good one

Poured neat. Nose gives a pleasant mix of caramel, white chocolate and a touch of red wine fruitiness. There is a faint twinge of wood and Red Vines in the background as well. Mouth feel is oily, and the wood picks up quite a bit on the taste. Along with that comes notes of plum, baking spices, maple syrup and slightly undercooked dough. Mild heat that fades into a leather, tobacco and warm red wine finish.

Thin on the nose. Edgy on the entry. Big Carmel in the middle, which like. Nothing but bitterness after that. I don’t totally hate it, but I won’t do it again.
