I’m not a Texas whiskey drinker. I find that most Texas whiskies have a weird smoky flavor that is just not palatable for me personally so I usually avoid them. But I know Still Austin has a good reputation, so taking a chance on this bottle was a gamble. The bottle and packaging (box) are beautiful. The bronzed eggs in the nest on top of the cork topper add to the elegance of this bottle. The nose was nice and rich and gave hints of what was to come. The flavors on the palate were amazingly sweet, with a zing of cinnamon and other baking spices but with a depth of baked monkey bread. It’s an easy drinker and full of flavors. I enjoyed every sip and recognize the unique qualities this bottle brings to the table. It’s a cigar blend but very light on tobacco flavor. It doesn’t hit you across the face with “I’M A CIGAR BLEND” like other brands do (cough…Huber’s…) It’s truly something that would complement a cigar well even though it’s a little on the light side for mouthfeel. This is something special. Congratulations to Still Austin. This is a beautiful bottle, inside and out. Kind of like Ms Congeniality winning 1st place in the pageant.
