Lots of sweetness and honey, met by earthy heat. A bit unexpected but pretty good overall!

James Hatfield

Hanky

This one is complicated. Hard to decide. It’s good.

Somehow got a week behind already so playing some catch up tonight - not going well so far this season but maybe doing four a day will help me learn fast? Or four tastings will help ease the pain of losing....either way. Day 4 is not my fave.

Christian Sito

Easy sipper!

Scott Maclean

Not bad. I like that it’s not high proof - more of a sipper. I don’t think it’s a Scotch or a bourbon, guessing rye. Looking forward to being wrong… again. 🤣

Scott Maclean

lol

Scott Maclean

I am terrible at this.

David Pearson

lol. same... no way did I think this was a bourbon

Michael McKee

Mike "Alex's Brother" McKee

Oh this is good. Really good. Spice like a rye...my control is a JTS Brown BIB and that is all corn...my money is on a high-ish proof rye.

Josh Light

Light with a little spice. I'd definitely give this a go again.

I signed up for this for the friendship and then I didn't start until the 10th day. I am an OG member who learned I didn't like hard liquor back then. I learned again today that I still don't like it. Now I have made zero friends and have a weird taste in my mouth. Anyone want to be my friend? 🤣

CALLIEEEEEEEEEEE!!

Jackie Connor

JC

Yay!

Kevin Guyer

Glad you made it, pretty sure I made the same expression...

John McDowell

Worm

Either eye or bourbon with more wheat-not my fave, I prefer a little sweeter. Good structure to it though.

Allan Maule

PPP

Tastes like a rye-heavy bourbon. On the drier, spicier side rather than being vanillay and sweet. Solid dram.

Lower. Pull. Raise. Lower. Pull. Raise. My oar pushes against the deepening water as we stride against the current. This secret river, some legend lost to time tells us its delta is somewhere off near Broken Leaf Rock. But we found it. Against all odds we found it and our annual pilgrimage commences. Up the river to the ancient beachhead, through the rocks and the moss until finally there in the clearing: The Spring. One by one, our party dips down and cups a mouthful. Some say the water is blessed by a cleric. Others say cursed by a fire demon. I say it is the earth itself giving us its warmth. Satisfied, we make our way back to the boat, and back to our daily lives, forever protecting the secret

I think I’m liking these more and more. It had some sweetness to it. I definitely appreciate it when the first sip is enjoyable. I don’t want to have to work for my drinks. So whatever this is, I approve. Or maybe because I spent a moment with The Cup this evening, and we’ll, everything is just better ha.

Jonathan Cory Kraftchick

Hef

But does it go well with Dr. Pepper?

Kevin Guyer

Hot, hot, hot on the nose! Burned its way southward, but we both like this one enough to put it on our radar. Getting a little too handsy with the cheese platters at the office holiday party tonight may have wrecked my palate for tasting notes on this pour but at least I feel bloated.

Hallie Knuffman

Nice nose. Tasty, just a little hot. I was too lazy to get up from the couch to add water (for real), so didn’t get to compare.

Nate Knuffman

Nose is pure cinnamon. It's hot. Taste brown sugar and graham crackers. I'd like to try again with a little water added.

Greg Baur

Do it

Jonathan Cory Kraftchick

Hef

Sweet heat!! I’m liking it and tasted just like a bourbon until I added water. This little critter is like a mogwai that totally transforms when it gets splashed with water.

Derek Glunz

Quotes

Enjoying this bottle with celebrating the salesman of the year. A little spice, some caramel. Pretty good!!

Bryce Freeman

Bryafree

Did not like this one as much 😂 Very strong

Scott Maclean

A bit fiery, but not too much. I’d probably really like this in a cocktail.

Wil Saleeby

If this isn’t Willett then I’ve found a new lover.

Wil Saleeby

So maybe don’t try 3 tastings in one night (playing catch up), but darn, I did not see this coming!!!

Jackie Connor

JC

This one is just okay for me. Not sure I’m getting much from it. Seems strong. Heat like this fireplace in the hotel. It’s cold in PA! 🥶

McKenna Beddingfield

McK

Oh! A sweet delight but boy does it have a kick! I'd drink this in the evenings. A nice honey flavor but not overpowering. Syrupy on the tongue and a tingle on the lips. Is this what I'm supposed to do in the comments?

Matt Atkins

Peat and heat. String like, but don't love. Well, now it's really growing on me.
