Yay, yay, yay--it's December!! I really enjoyed this one with a drop of water. I got some vanilla, maybe raisin.

Hallie Knuffman

I really enjoyed the aroma on this one, but that's about all. It was pleasant at first as a light, easy intro to the weekend, but I'm lookin' for more. I got chocolate and cereal on the front end.

Hallie Knuffman

So...scotchy, peaty, woody, but not smoky and distracting, so I can actually catch the flavors. Not saying I loved it, but it was fun to taste.

Hallie Knuffman

This one is really nice. Floral and fruity, maybe bubblegum on the nose? A little bit of mineral/chemical taste, but in a really positive way. Really got me to sit back, relax, and enjoy the sips.

All the qualities of Scotch that I know--peaty, smoky, grassy. The nose was a little sour & medicinal for me, loved the front flavor, didn't love the finish. I appreciate the opportunity to keep tasting & learning more about these smoke shows. ;-)

Hallie Knuffman

A sweet bread on the nose, banana nut maybe? Then peanut brittle on the tongue. I feel like I know this one...?!?! Like it a lot.

Hallie Knuffman

Scotch-like, but seems too mild and is missing the gross smoky aftertaste.

Hallie Knuffman

Did Nate rate this a 10? I don't know what to do with it; the flavor is good, but not sure I want to mix my morning and evening drinks.

Hallie Knuffman

Very nice. I liked the depth. Couldn't find much distinctive in the flavors, but that's not a knock on the whiskey, more so on my palette tonight.

Hallie Knuffman

Nose was challenging, but I kept getting some cinnamon? Maybe speyside again, since it's light on the smoke & aftertaste? Look at me, trying to learn some things about scotch!

Blech.
