Great nose, super smooth. Cask strength bourbon. A little caramel
James Hatfield

Solid choice. Not running out to buy it from blind tasting but has that sweet hit sugar I love.

I’m not really connecting with this one. Feel a bit like a one trick pony, and I’d like a little more character out of a dram. A bit too much charcoal and rough spice throughout without evolving into something more interesting. Not bad, just not for me.

I'm digging the nose, but the rest of it tastes somewhat average to me.

Quotes
Not my favorite scotch.

This has to be a Scotch or some type of American Whiskey. Nose has vanilla, orange, and red grapes. Flavor is oak/vanilla/dried fruit. Tastes a little weak and watered down, but sweet when left sitting out. Water erased the flavor. Between 80-90 proof, but I have been WAY off one most of my guesses, so going for the middle.

It's interesting. I would like a little more in the pallette.
Mark Peters
Shaft
Not sure what this is. A rye is my best guess. Definitely would buy this.

Odd aftertaste. I can’t tell what this one is. Least favorite. Watch it be the most expensive.

I'm really liking this. Smells like an apple orchard and tastes smooth. Scotch essence, but much softer.

The nose on this one baffles me. I really like the bright and floral taste. Overall, I’m very into it! My gut says scotch, but maybe Irish?
John McDowell

Like drinking a box of fermented sunmaid raisins. This tastes goofy enough to not call in a bourbon, and maybe an “other“.

Tastes like it was finished in a sherry barrel. Delicious!

smells like if you mixed Hennessy and Wild Turkey. Heavy vanilla and honey. Floral almost.

A smokey smooth scotch. I love it but know that it will still finish behind Jack Daniel’s
Josh Mitchell

Better than some.
James Hopkins

Excellent!

Ardbeg?!

Oh baby, this is good! Light floral notes and citrus on the nose. Fruit and apricot dance across a light bed or peat. The finish has a lingering sweetness. This is brightness in a glass!
John McDowell
Worm
Solid in every respect. Like a gateway scotch
Matt Eagle

This one is not for me. Overly sweet - like drinking less-viscous honey on fire.
James Hatfield
Hanky
This is some classy stuff. I love the flavor of this. Congrats to whomever selected it.
