Peaty delicious scotch. I loved my watch trying to drink this while not being able to handle the peat. Smoky and delicious!! Keep ‘em coming

Lagavulin, maybe? Not my favorite scotch.

Whoa, what a kick to the nose! Peaty, earthy, the right bit of citrus fruit, and a heated finish. Not mad at this at all. Pairs nicely with a full-blown head cold.

Really like this one. Has the delightful smoke of an island scotch.

I still prefer bourbon, but feel really sophisticated when I'm drinking Scotch.

This is amazing. Tastes like a Smokey and sweet northern scotch.

One of these days people will stop pretending to like Scotch...

This is my favorite of the year!! I love it! A little lemon, a little peat, amazing scotch. Hoping some of those bourbon lovers enjoy this one.

Not sure what I’m looking for when I taste a drink that taste like a pile of wet dirt, but if I was, this would be perfect. Just the right amount of wet? And dirt? Oh wait, I would like to augment my taste of wet and dirt with some medicinal iodine. Mmm mmm good. Weirdly, the older I get, the more like this.

Very enjoyable! Is this Suntory? Super light golden color, fruity profile with grapefruit and a bit of a bite at the end. Overall, very drinkable. Interested to see how split the numbers are on this one.

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...

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?
