I spilled a little bit of this pouring it into my glass, and I could not be more upset. This is everything I want in a whisky. Hang on, I gotta go lick my kitchen counter.

Light touch, and I appreciate the graceful citrus of this one.

No idea what this is, but its "mid" as my kids would say...

A little low proof for my taste, but the flavor is pretty good. 🍌🍌🍌🍌🍌

What is this? It's weird in a bad way.

Favorite of day 2-8, for sure. Initially, I got a lot of alcohol, but it mellowed nicely and got better and better with each subsequent sip. I wish I had more.

Uneven floral smoke—Forest things that come to mine.

Perfectly acceptable but I wouldn’t choose to drink this. It is a mixer. If you made it into a rusty nail, it might be passable.

Unusual flavor profile! This mixes sweet corn with pepper. Wondering if this is the local bottle I picked.

Well, this is interesting. Tastes like a bourbon. The flavors are nicely layered with some spice at the end. Enjoyable in an unexpected way, so I’d understand if some folks don’t love it.

Love the flavor profile but seems too light/faint. Would like a little more pop. Rye? Japanese? Japanese rye?

I didn't love it, didn't hate it. Not sure I'd but this again, but if someone bought me a bottle, I'd still say thank you.

very light color - thought it was Irish until I gave it a whiff. It smells like if you mixed Four Roses and Sake together. Taste notes to me are honey/floral/vanilla. Not a very high ABV. Let it sit out a bit in the glass, and it changed. At first sip...hated it. After a while, it grew on me. Would buy

So nice. Smooth and easy.

So smooth- hope this is one of my choices. The proof with scotch is always higher than it seems for me, tastes like a highland or speyside one

I think I know this scotch from the nose. Smells like a seagulls armpit and taste like an oil slick. And it’s delicious.

Hello scotch! This is very pleasant and very drinkable. I’d suspect this would be approachable for novice scotch drinkers. If I’m being super nit picky, I want there to be a bit more body and interest in the flavor profile, but it’s inoffensive in every way.

Has the citrus and honey notes of a young MaCallan or Glenmorangie. Tasty, but unremarkable.

I want to like peaty scotches, I really do....I just don't.

Didn't like it at first, but after letting it open a little, really liked it. Little too much ethanol that lasts.

Sweet, citrusy, and undefined finish.
