Confused by this one. Might be a scotch, but I am going bourbon. Love it all the same. Spicy and delicious.

Not much of a nose but it makes up for it with a punchy flavor. There’s something earthy to this whiskey that’s unexpected.

Very tasty, but it’s like a scotch that’s apologetic for being a scotch. I’m sorry I taste like iodine and peat. Faintly delicious.

Earthy for this type of whiskey, with taste of apricot and grapefruit. Liked it better the more I drank.

I'm getting a lot of tropical fruit on the finish. Pineapple, orange, mango. And then a tiny kick of spice at the very end. Smells like a scotch, but tastes like a mixed drink. Really liking it if it was just a touch higher proof.

This is a straight banger. Great floral nose, interesting flavor profile, good finish.

This is super sweet and I have zero clue what it is. It tastes expensive.

Silky smooth scotch. Fair amount of burn on the finish, but I love it. Faint taste of cherries. Love this one!!

The nose is light. I enjoy the taste. This gets better with every sip. Feels like a bourbon that’s toying with the idea of being more like a scotch?

Palate of a Bourbon and the finish of a Scotch. Not bad, but not my favorite.

This one is really good. Tastes like pop rocks and gets that tingle just right. I tried opening my mouth to hear the popping, but it just looked like I was trying to scream. Anyway, I'm getting apples, oranges and cotton candy with some spice on the back end.

This stuff tastes amazing. Have zero idea what it is but it’s sweet heat.

I wasn't sure about this one after the first sip. It seemed to get a lot better as I drank it.

Really interesting combo of flavor and finish.

Powerful taste of vanilla and burnt caramel, with a plum finish. Guessing this was aged in port barrels.

This is like I'm on a liquid hayride with a shot of vanilla. I could see Curly from City Slickers drinking this while he's sleeping.
