Quotes

Good, but not overwhelming in any way. A lot of burn on the end

John McDowell

Excellent. Maybe a less complex flavor profile? Which is probably better for me given I’m not good at recognizing all the flavors.

James Hatfield

Hanky

It tastes like eggnog with curry. It’s terrible. Never given a 1 before but this gets it.

Matt Eagle

Precious

Love the heat on this. Burn baby burn! Tastes familiar. Really enjoyable.

One of my faves from this calendar! Bright and floral with lots of vanilla and butterscotch. Look forward to the reveal on this one.

I'm pretty sure Hef submitted this and somehow found a way to mix cookies and whiskey together.

Someone mixed bourbon with Aunt Jemima’s syrup and a pine tree air freshener. Almost a hint of juniper which makes me think Elmer T Lee, but not nearly as good. I sipped enough to get an opinion but can’t finish this glass

Matt Eagle

Precious

Well, my wife said this is like drinking high-proof flowers, so we’ll go with that. Interesting. Neither of us could place this one. Wanted more from the finish.

This tastes like Triple Crown Butterscotch whiskey. The drink “buttery nipple” comes from this whiskey.

Derek Glunz

Quotes

Wow, this is sweet from the nose to the finish. If I wanted to get my kids drinking whiskey, this is how I would start them. Lots of caramel and salt-water taffy flavors. As overwhelming sweet as it is, very smooth that makes it a little bit likable.

Jonathan Cory Kraftchick

Hef

Tastes like Christmas. It's a lot like baked apples, some vanilla, baking spices, basically just a holiday breakfast. Not sure if I like it. The finish is great, but getting there is less great.

Sweet honey flavor. It's ok. I'd drink it if offered, but wouldn't go out of my way to find it.

James Hopkins

Tubs

Light and citrusy

James Hatfield

Hanky

Saving the best for last; this one is amazing. Sweet, hot sugar, cinnamon, spice, rich... amazing!

Love this one. Nose of candied cherry and orange. Taste of orange and honey, with a finish of sweet corn.

Josh Mitchell

I feel that I should like this, but it's not working for me.

Mitch Mitchell

WeGo

Very smooth all the way down. I like the after taste as it seems to linger.

Matt Eagle

Precious

Wow, I’m getting a lot of honey and vanilla along with a high proof burn. Very interesting combo.

Derek Glunz

Quotes

Solid delicious bourbon. Kept getting better every sip. Dark cherries and a little bit of spice. Longshot guess that this Blood Oath

Mark Peters

Shaft

Very complex. Okay at first, liked it more and more as I drank it.

Mark Peters

Shaft

I just really like Bourbon

Jonathan Cory Kraftchick

Hef

Quality bourbon and tastes more refined then most. Had this alongside Buffalo Trace and it tasted really similar. Might be Kentucky's favorite colonel using his favorite mash bill.

John McDowell

Worm

This whiskey is like a candle...smells awesome, tastes bad and lots of burning. I liked the heat and the nose, but something on the flavor profile is not sitting right with me. So close to being great

James Hatfield

Hanky

I have no idea what this is. It’s super complex.
