This tastes like Scotch, but the mildest Scotch I've ever had. Delicious.

This tastes like undisturbed time in a quiet room in front of a fire. Snow falls outside. The fire warms the room while this delectable dram warms your body.
This year’s calendar has been outstanding. It’s been made even better by sharing it with all of you. Merry Christmas, friends!

Awesome finisher. Getting nice oak and tobacco flavors. Maybe a bit of fruit on the finish.

Save the best for last! Spicy like a rye with some good heat. Thanks Cory for an incredible advent calendar!!

Delicious. Need to get past the alcohol burn on the nose, then it's fruity and maybe peaches. Nice vanilla and caramel flavors.

Nice oak with sweetness of brown sugar. Drinks smooth and good mouth feel.

Nice & spicy. Christmas in a bottle. Yum.

Maybe it’s because I know this is supposed to be good since it’s the last one, but it is pretty phenomenal.

Butterscotch and leather. Little spice on the end. Wouldn’t turn away another serving.

Finished this like 10 mins ago...and its still burning. Complete guess on this one

Well this one has quite the punch, doesn't it? I like it a lot. Tons of tropical fruit, vanilla and a ton of heat. If it were dialed down just a touch, it'd be almost perfect.

It’s Christmas Eve Eve (Friends reference)!
Cinnamon spice, honey. Higher proof. Nice finish but I definitely would sip on a nice big ice ball

It's brown sugar and brown butter and cherries, but hinting at red apple and pear. Just massively dense. I should probably add water but I don't want to.

Excellent. Maybe because I haven’t tasted bourbon in days in this calendar, but high quality imo. Slight on the finish, would like sweeter, but love it

Pretty solid fruity flavors. I like it, but kind of right down the middle. Not sticking out which isn't necessarily bad. If the price is right, this could a nice house Scotch.

Tastes like burning. Pairs well with this red licorice. Overall, not mad at it but not my favorite.

A person at my party described this as "the rimj** of whiskeys."

Good! Apricot? Orange? Spice? I can't commit, but I'd drink this again and happy to have a good one close to the end.

Big fan of the chocolatey notes in this one. I'd have to be in a certain mode and not one I'd drink everyday.
