It's got some spice and herbal notes, but I'm not going to let myself talk myself into calling it a rye. Definitely high octane. Tough to rate because it seems quality but not my favorite flavor profile.

Really, really like this. Super sweet on the front, palate lingers with spicy cinnamon toast crunch. Super long finish. Can't wait to see what this is.

Butterscotch. Licorice at the nose. Low proof. Malt
Finish made my throat scratchy - not sure why
Taste like a scotch but Iโm probably wrong haha.

Smells like a smokey boy. Surprisingly mild on the very front, but blossoms into a lovely peaty beauty. If this isn't Islay, I'll be shocked. You cheeky devils wouldn't do a 3rd Bruichladdich bottle in one year, would you?

Tasty juice!

I canโt recall having a Japanese or Irish whiskey. I jump to the assumption when something in the calendar tastes differentโฆ and I think this could be itโฆ.

The first Scott....Scotch I've ever liked

Total smoke show.

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

Smells like a malt, otherwise not a ton on the nose up front. Some peat on the palate for sure. Feels like a decent proof, but nothing crazy. Nice and balanced overall.

Disclaimer: I had a holiday party today so Iโm like 6 drinks in.
Floral to the nose. Bubble gum?
Spicy, on the higher proof for a whiskey.
This is definitely a sobriety test - doesnโt not taste
Like a bourbon or a scotch. So Iโm leaning towards other or rye or Irish.

A little low proof for my taste, but the flavor is pretty good. ๐๐๐๐๐

After a long rest, I'm picking up peanut butter. Really? Surely I ate something weird. Finish lasts forever, which is pleasant, but not a ton distinctive from the nose or palate
John Boggs
I liked this one. Slow burn on the palate long after the sip. Little bit of cough syrup in there.

Tastes like straight-ahead bourbon. Not getting much on the nose. Feels like a decent proof though. Gets sweeter and smoother the more I sip.

I didn't love it, didn't hate it. Not sure I'd but this again, but if someone bought me a bottle, I'd still say thank you.

Scotch. If itโs not, then I am hella rusty this year. I can see this one being finished in maybe bourbon cask. Low proof

Hola seรฑor. I'm having flashbacks of college, was this aged in tequila barrels? Are tequila barrels a thing? Am I just crazy and this is where my tumble down the leaderboard begins? I'll press submit and we'll find out.

This is either Irish or some goofy nonsense. The nose is ridiculously sweet. The palate redeems it somewhat. Before I sipped it I was dead sure it was a flavored monstrosity.

Brown sugar and cherries. Tastes like classic bourbon. Pretty hot. Settles right down on the second sip.

Nose - fruity maybe apple and grapes
Taste -spice
Nice end to my birhtday.
Chad Wiley
Not getting much on the nose, bright and light finish, have no idea what Iโm tasting.

Smells like a crisp cool Fall afternoon best paired with a cigar and served before or immediately following cheering on your college football team or during a round of golf.
