Ugh - I don't know what this is!! Getting some floral, but I don't know. Also something about it I don't love - ?? What even. Pairing with some Christmas music to add more joy : )

Leaves a good chew on the tongue. Peaty. Maple and spices. This could be a trick though and end up being Japanese.

Well here we are, six days done These last few days are ruining my fun. But Sam-I-am does not quit Even if I am beat up a bit A smoky smell tickles my nose I believe this scotch with increase my woes. But wait! Is the first scotch I love? This is truly unheard of! So what do I think Sam-I-am? What do I say about this tasty dram? I really want it to be a scotch. But this is most likely another day I'll botch.

I absolutely love it. Scotch but smooth, easy drinking.

We both liked this one. And she is hard to please with a scotch. I'm easier.

Scotch seems to be growing on this group and I'll admit it's growing on me too, but not quite in this one. I don't hate it but I don't love it. And for whatever reason, here's a picture of some mice.

Agreed, Scotch seems to be much more appreciated… as it should be

Second of the night to play catchup - question as old as time for me. Aroma light spring fruits, floral. Palate much of the same -- light and crispy. Not overly complex. A little bit of peat on the backend, guessing most won't like it, but it's fine to me. Again, clearly I'm aging in my tastes.

Tastes like a straight ahead lightly peated scotch with a big honey note and a good amount of body and bite.

Big fan of this one (this is day 5, I’m a day behind catching up). Seems like a classic bourbon color, aroma and palate. Oak and nutmeg on the aroma, maybe some chocolate. Thick mouth feel, caramel and maybe some dark fruit. Good long finish, but not too hot. This is something good and complex, will be my highest rated so far this year.

Just very unpleasant. The nose is tight, the palate is hot and spiky. My brother’s take: “The finish is Hill Country Fare toothpaste.” I’m guessing rye just because I’ve never had a bourbon I disliked this much.

Spice and dark cherry on the nose. Barrel-proof bourbon that burns on the first sip and gets better with time

Smell of citrus, vanilla and honey with a smidge of hay but boy does it burn going down. I had to add a splash of water and an ice cube. Gives a good throat burn 🔥 that lasts a bit. Oh boy the spice! I'd look for this if I was outside, in the cold, freezing rain and needed a burst of warmth out on the prairie. Or underneath the neck of a St. Bernard.

Burst of warmth out on the prairie. Amazing. 🤩

As I sit by firelight. I stare into a glass of amber shining bright. The first sniff my how it burns. The heat begins to raise concerns. Yet I take the first sip, I am amazed. Is this a rye, that I am going to praise? It must be something barrell proof. If you're reading this do I look like a genius or goof? So do I like this Sam-I-am? What is the verdict on this little dram? I'd have another, yes another pour This is a drink worthy of an encore

Shortbread and a hint of green apple. Irish? Could totally be another Scotch. I’m gonna overthink this and blow it. Now I’m thinking maybe Japanese. It’s super light and sweet up front with a little bitty bite on the back end. It’s simple, but elegant, very drinkable. It’s got an almost smoky low note that makes me think Japanese as well.

Its floral scent floats through the air It must be a Scotch, I swear! Sweet blossoms greet my curios nose Like petals whirling as the wind blows. I do not like scotch, oh no But honestly, on me this one is starting to grow. I'd pour not one glass but maybe two. And for scotches I can only say that about a few. So do I like this Sam-I-am? What do I have to say about this dram? Would I drink one with Colleen? Yes indeed, that sounds serene!

Guessing between Scotch and Irish is so stressful!
