Nicely balanced but not too memorable. It feels like the distillery put a lot of work into making a crowd pleaser but as a result cut all the interesting bits.

If a pixie stick was rescued from a house fire, that’s this drink. Not loving it.

I want the sweet vanilla taste, but the peat heat lingers and lingers. Instant heartburn. Maybe we need a bourbon Calendar...

It's good. Not great. It does grow on you, though.

Really liking this! Peaty, floral nose. Earthy but bright flavors. A really nice balance with a punchy delivery. Somehow all of these disparate characteristics come together very nicely!

Sweet Smokey goodness. Most won’t like this one but I truly love it. It’s magic.

Smoky scotch…little much for me. Will save it for my islay-loving friends who visit.

This is my jam. Smoky and peated with an earthy sweetness like autumnal malts. Looking forward to all the divided opinions to come.

I'm liking this one a lot. Getting a lot of strawberry and fruit punch on a long finish. Big fan.

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

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.

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.

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.
