Greg Baur

Sweet. Caramel, vanilla brown sugar. Easy drinker. Really smooth or low proof.

Greg Baur

Seems Young I would say. Pretty straight forward otherwise. No big flavors noted

Curtis Mulder

Honestly, I have no idea what this is. It didn't taste like bourbon or scotch. I like it.

Hallie Knuffman

Not getting much flavor from this. Smoke for sure. Maybe apple?

Mark Peters

Shaft

Pretty good.

Nate Knuffman

Smells like an old sneaker with a hint of smokiness. Taste is brown sugar. Enjoyable.

This feels like a wild guess for day 2 but I think this might be a chocolate malt scotch. Reminds me of the Glenmorangie Signet.

Nose – cherry, wicker, baking spice. Palate – smooth front, spicy mid, caramel finish. Pick up more wood notes on the nose after the first sip.

John Boggs

I struggled differentiating this one. The nose was pleasant and sweet. The sweetness of the nose did not extend to the flavor. Enjoyed it.

John McDowell

Worm

Guessing either a wheaty bourbon or other. There’s a hint of maple and bacon but somehow that isn’t really a good thing. Not bad, but not my fav

Zach Bennett

I can’t put my finger on this one but I am a fan.

Johan Martinez

Burns the nose hairs at smell. Taste cinnamon for sure Finish is spice

Jim Brown

Nose was a bit bland, but a nice smooth mouthfeel. Strong hints of tobacco, tail of leather. Slight sweetness — black cherry?

Jim Brown

Enjoyed this more than I remembered. Glad we ranked it highly.

Sam Kube

Kory Craftchick

First whiff: notes of maple syrup but don't think it's Canadian, thinking it's a bourbon Second whiff: less convinced it's a bourbon and realizing it's going to be another year where my thumb gets sore scrolling the leaderboard to find my name First taste: its light, not complex but I like it, clearly exposing my unsophisticated palate? palette? pallet? Second taste: I think this would be best served neat, over rocks would water down too quickly, has to be a lower proof Let's go with $43 for a fifth?

Me no likey scotch

Tastes like socks

Very smooth finish

Full Body

This is pretty boring. No flavor, and a little spice at the end. It's not bad, it's just not good.

Christopher Reeves

band-aid

Apple Jacks! Old wood and a touch of tobacco? Band-aids and plastic. No heat. I don't love it, just doesn't seem to be much going on?

Allan Maule

PPP

Really interesting combo of flavors. Like a cherry pie put in a blender with caramel ice cream.

Matt Eagle

Precious

Nice rich amber color, sweet honey nose, a bit of a bite throughout the finish. This smells like a bourbon but drinks a bit like a rye. Do I love it? Not really. Have both my kids been sick since before Thanksgiving and I’m just glad to have some booze at the end of the day? Absolutely. While this wouldn’t be my first choice to enjoy neat, I bet it would make an excellent cocktail.

James Hatfield

Hanky

Earthy, some baking spice, light nose, short finish. I have zero clue what this is. Has that green apple 🍏 flavor that usually means it’s younger.

Brian Taylor

BruyGuy

Very smooth on the front end and easy to drink. Flavors reminded me of grains, and swear I caught a bit of vanilla in the nose.
