This tastes like Triple Crown Butterscotch whiskey.
The drink “buttery nipple” comes from this whiskey.

Wow, this is sweet from the nose to the finish. If I wanted to get my kids drinking whiskey, this is how I would start them. Lots of caramel and salt-water taffy flavors. As overwhelming sweet as it is, very smooth that makes it a little bit likable.

Tastes like Christmas. It's a lot like baked apples, some vanilla, baking spices, basically just a holiday breakfast. Not sure if I like it. The finish is great, but getting there is less great.

Sweet honey flavor. It's ok. I'd drink it if offered, but wouldn't go out of my way to find it.

Light and citrusy

Saving the best for last; this one is amazing. Sweet, hot sugar, cinnamon, spice, rich... amazing!

Love this one. Nose of candied cherry and orange. Taste of orange and honey, with a finish of sweet corn.

I feel that I should like this, but it's not working for me.

Very smooth all the way down. I like the after taste as it seems to linger.

Wow, I’m getting a lot of honey and vanilla along with a high proof burn. Very interesting combo.

Solid delicious bourbon. Kept getting better every sip. Dark cherries and a little bit of spice. Longshot guess that this Blood Oath

Very complex. Okay at first, liked it more and more as I drank it.

I just really like Bourbon

Quality bourbon and tastes more refined then most. Had this alongside Buffalo Trace and it tasted really similar. Might be Kentucky's favorite colonel using his favorite mash bill.

This whiskey is like a candle...smells awesome, tastes bad and lots of burning. I liked the heat and the nose, but something on the flavor profile is not sitting right with me. So close to being great

I have no idea what this is. It’s super complex.

Now this is delicious. Helloooo mamma.

Can't place this. 24 is usually something odd...

One of my favorite Bourbons of all time. If it's what I think it is. Also, how did you find it? (If it's what I think it is.)

Very strong from beginning to the end

Probably the best finish of the calendar, like this spent time in Pinot barrels. Rich and plummy.
James Hopkins

Good—cinnamon vanilla finish...

Quotes
Sort of reminds me of 23. Burn on the first few sips, but just keeps getting better. Getting flavors of caramel and slightly floral
John McDowell

Superb. Seems like scotch and bourbon together again, but this is the smoothest one. Great nose, heat, flavor, everything. Great calendar Hef, thanks so much.
