Oh I like this nose. Like toasted marshmallow and sweet candy. Taste similar. Love it. Reminds me of EC toasted barrel.

Don’t love this one. I’m not sure what it is. My bestest nephew dog Otto had fun sniffing the bottle.

Not as good as the Russell, but a solid pour. Likely a high rye bourbon!

Matt Eagle

Precious

Yes to this 💪🏻

Hallie Knuffman

This is pretty mellow, but I’m enjoying it. Kind of like a nice cup of tea, a comforting, calming way to end the day.

Nate Knuffman

Pretty easy drinker. Maybe it's getting rounded up since we're about to head out for vacation, but this hit the right notes for me.

I like it!

I’m gonna call this rye cuz it’s got a fair bit of spice and not a ton of sweetness up front. It’s got that tongue pinch factor going. Kind of a funky nose unless I just didn’t rinse my glencairn properly. Fair bit of proof to it. It’s a little perfumey, a little varnish-y. It’s not off-putting, but it’s not my favorite either.

Off the back of fireball, this is fantastic. It’s no secret that I’m extremely green when it comes to whiskey, and I don’t think I’ve liked any of these like I like a good few fingers of Don Julio 1942, 😉 but this one I’ll drink. I feel like this one’s got some proof to it as well,’but not as much as the 125 of yesterday. I mean LBH, I’m most likely not correct. I will say this though. For those who know, a lot of these taste like the CS Gas Chamber to me. Like that’s a taste, smell, and feeling that I’ll never be able to forget. Thankfully whiskey doesn’t come with the sinus draining, vomit inducing, and uncontrollable eye watering that came with the gas chamber. Really though, I think I’m just still slightly in shock by how much I hated the last whatever it was fake whiskey.

Delicious bourbon, smooth, the right heat and sweet. Enjoyed with a cigar while watching Miracle on 34th street. This was another miracle!

Derek! Great selection. This is my favorite so far I think. I’d definitely buy this and it’s a great bourbon for that price

Cinnamon flavor right off the bat. Honestly, really tastes like fireball. If I was at a party and we were doing shots… sure. But not for me to sip on. If this is fireball, great. If it’s not, I will be fine never drinking this ever again. No thanks. I just cannot get over my absolute disdain for this drink. 🤷🏼‍♂️ I wouldn’t corrupt any other drink by adding this to it. No gracias ☠️. SHUT IT DOWN 🙅

I have no words tonight. Hints of cherry? Does my oldest have the flu? Whiskey take me away.

Erin Kraftchick

Mrs Hef

Oh no! Flu is going around, hope you stay well

Or you can always do a hot toddy lol

James Hatfield

Just solid.

A touch of brine? Or maybe just wishful thinking. Wood. Smells like the color orange. Heavy wood still. I get banana? Spicy finish with some off taste. Add water. Heat is untamed.

Kevin Guyer

This is good, but lives in yesterday's shadow. Could be a good whiskey to have on hand.

Scott Maclean

Interesting one today. Not too fiery, kind of a smooth sipper. Brown sugar/caramel notes, I think. Guessing a bourbon, mainly because when I don’t guess bourbon, I’m wrong. Might be a rye. Might be something else - my consistency is in never really knowing if it’s not Scotch. 😁

Josh Light

Getting licorice on the nose but smooths out with peanut brittle and caramel on the palate. Kind of digging this one just because its easy to drink and enjoyable.

Josh Mitchell

Full Body

Not for me.

Josh Light

This might be my favorite so far, this is delicious. Getting brown sugar, apples, and honey with some really nice heat.

Jim Brown

Oh! This tastes so very, very more-ish. Arguably the best so far this year. Which means I now need to go buy another bottle. Sigh. Merry Christmas, Liver!

John McDowell

Tasted refined, but maybe that’s cause it’s late in the calendar and I expect the better whiskeys later…would def buy this.
