Either I’m crazy or I like this one. Both could be true. I like the smell of this one. Not sure I know anything about it but enjoying it. Eagles out my window! Don’t tell my Dallas friends.

Sorry to my fans, I am back at last Traveling this week has me feeling gassed Sam-I-am is back with another rhyme To help you pass a little time I take a sip, holy smoke! A few years ago, a sip like that would make me choke. This has to be another scotch Certainly no notes of butterscotch When will these scotches relent? I don't remember sign up for scotch advent! Sam-I-am this just tastes fine I'm sipping it here on the OBX coastline

"Why not make 10 peatier? Because 11 is one more, while most blokes are stuck at ten, this goes over the edge" I can't with this one. I'd rather drink yesterday's again.

“It’s like, ‘How much more peated could this be?’ And the answer is… none. None more peated”

Strong honey flavor. High on florals. That whiskey burn is real! Reminds me of a cough syrup. This isn't a fave of mine but Rabit says it's growing on him. Curious what Sam I Am picked here.

I’ve realized I’m quite clueless on my guesses…I think my tongue and nose are in a large disagreement and unwilling to resolve their differences!

The hubby doesn’t mind this one…he can have it. Gave me goosebumps and not because I loved it. Literally no idea again if it’s Canadian or Irish or what but 🥴

I’m gonna plant a flag on port finished scotch just off the nose (and the color). It’s all dark dried fruit and almond on the front but classic malt flavors on the back. Feels slightly hot but my proof-o-meter is well busted this year. I’m getting some smoked ham notes like I love in the Ardbeg Uigeadail. This one’s growing on me by the minute. Quite lovely on a chilly evening. Must be some fruit to it, a fruit fly kamikaze’d my glass. I fished him out. I’m not sharing this one.

I’d buy a bottle of this…I don’t know the difference between Rye, Irish, Japanese, etc but whatever this is, I like it!

Zach Bennett

I have no idea

Smooth, tasty, easy drinking. Confused by the color. Scotch from a sherry barrel?!?

Tastes pretty thin and a little young. Maybe a couple more years in the barrel, but not feeling it's quite ready. Here's a cool pic of a Christmas tree made out of whiskey barrels from a company in Wake Forest. https://thewhiskeyworkshop.com/products/bourbon-barrel-christmas-trees-two-sizes-69754

My palate may be miscalibrated at the moment. This just tastes like a petroleum product of some sort.

When the write up includes way more talk about the story behind the name than the spirit itself… I stand by my rating.

Yeah... I have to agree with you here. Their website has a ton more merchandise than it does whiskey which is usually a sign of a distillery that needs age their whiskey longer.

Light, vanilla on the nose. Not light on the palette… wow. Tough to read with all that heat

We think it might be a rye, but it is no secret that I don't know $%!& about $%!& when it comes to whiskey, so let's roll the dice. Regardless of the accuracy of the guess, we both like this.

This is tasty stuff!

If I keep guessing bourbon this week, I’ll eventually be right? This one seems pretty good. Caramel and heat. 😬👍

Kevin Guyer

Now I wish I'd guessed bourbon. Crap. Also well done ;)

Enjoying this out of my only appropriate glassware (sorry to everyone with an actual tasting glass) - kind of dig this one

Jonathan Cory Kraftchick

You're not too far off with that JD glass...

Don't love this one but seems fairly easy to drink

Somehow got a week behind already so playing some catch up tonight - not going well so far this season but maybe doing four a day will help me learn fast? Or four tastings will help ease the pain of losing....either way. Day 4 is not my fave.

I signed up for this for the friendship and then I didn't start until the 10th day. I am an OG member who learned I didn't like hard liquor back then. I learned again today that I still don't like it. Now I have made zero friends and have a weird taste in my mouth. Anyone want to be my friend? 🤣

CALLIEEEEEEEEEEE!!

Yay!

Kevin Guyer

Glad you made it, pretty sure I made the same expression...

McKenna Beddingfield

McK

Yes Callie!

Kevin Guyer

Hot, hot, hot on the nose! Burned its way southward, but we both like this one enough to put it on our radar. Getting a little too handsy with the cheese platters at the office holiday party tonight may have wrecked my palate for tasting notes on this pour but at least I feel bloated.

Jonathan Cory Kraftchick

Sweet heat!! I’m liking it and tasted just like a bourbon until I added water. This little critter is like a mogwai that totally transforms when it gets splashed with water.

Colleen Beyer

None

I added water at your suggestion and it was as better but not better enough to make me like it.

Enjoying this bottle with celebrating the salesman of the year. A little spice, some caramel. Pretty good!!

This one is just okay for me. Not sure I’m getting much from it. Seems strong. Heat like this fireplace in the hotel. It’s cold in PA! 🥶
