Charming and nicely balanced. This tastes like a Japanese whiskey trying to emulate a lowland scotch.

I love scotch. Scotchy scotchy Scotch.
Here it goes down. Down into my belly.

This one hits all the right notes.

Nose of cherries and molasses. Definitely a bourbon, probably barrel strength. The more I sip it, the better it gets.

I enjoyed this…and with good company!

Damn, starting out hot. Dried fruit/fruitcake/raisins on the nose. Lots of heat on the first sip. Tastes like a Sherried Cask Scotch?

Solid dram. Is that wheat I taste? Not a fan of wheat …or peat…or probably most things that rhyme with ‘eet’

Tastes like a rye-heavy Tennessee whiskey. A bit spicy for my taste but I respect what it’s up to.

Sweet and smooth early, with some heat at the end. I like this one.

This smells and tastes very familiar. Is this Woodford Double Oak? Plenty of sweetness and a slightly elevated heat. Overall, very solid. I’d be happy if I ordered this at a bar downtown.

I’m so confused by this one right now. It’s good but I am not sure the style or proof. I’m a terrible blind guesser.

Happy Holidays gang!
Why's it so spicey....reminder why I am not a huge Rye fan. I have always wondered if people who like peaty Scotch really dig Rye?
Cant wait for the rest of them though!!

So hot, so sweet. Delicious. Truly deserving of being last year’s winner

Not a huge fan of Rye’s but the high proof seems right.

So many things to like about this one, but mostly is that the advent calendar is back!

Tastes like Ezra Brooks 7-Year Straight Rye, 114 proof.
Spicy on the back-end. Just how I like 'em.

Quotes
Wow! This packs a punch. It took me a few sips to get past the heat and start enjoying it. Vanilla, caramel and heat. Really strong start. Love the advent calendar!!

Beautiful. High octane. Great 2023 winner.

Solid. Very solid.
