Not much on the nose but this might be my favorite malt of the calendar so far on the palate. Tastes like a big boy.

Has a scotchy finish to it but not sure due to color and nose. Donโt love it but donโt hate it.
I can see this one being a scotch finished in bourbon barrels

Argh. Great nose and color. Fruit, melon. But scotch. Peat. Sea water. Mixed with floral and honey dew. Meh. Pass.

Boated of bowling alley shoes and a taste of gym shorts I wore to a campfire that I tried to clean in lemon juice

Tasty scotch. Getting wood and smoke, but not overpowering.

Okurrrr...I settled into this one and was able to appreciate it. I couldn't shake a banana taste, but not sure that makes sense.

Tastes like Scotch...but fruity. Glad we havent gotten into the ultra smoke/peat shops yet. I kinda dig the lighter fruity/floral sips. Super light in color and really fruity on the nose (peach/mango/banana). Jump of ethanol on the initial taste, but added a few drops of water and it calmed down. Still not a fan of Scotch, but this advent calendar has opened my eyes that Scotch has huge flavor swings. Good sipper, really good with the Bittermilk smoked honey.

My mouth is on fire with joy. Tastes like the potent sherry sweetness of Glenlivet Nadurra. Amazing!

Citrus on the nose and honey on palate, oak on the finish. So so so good. For a high proof, this is super calm.

I'm split. Great proof. Sweet palette. Crap finish. Poser scotch. Peat and brown sugar. Feels like it's trying to be a scotch friend and failing.

Torn if this is a bourbon or other, we're guessing other. Hot on the nose, paired exceptionally with chocolate I accidentally ate while this all went down. Overall though we didn't hate it though there was something odd on the backend.

Tastes like an Islay Scotch.

Butterscotch! Oak, gonna say apricot, honey. Water brought out more subtle fruit. Finish is unique but can't place it, looking forward to notes. Outstanding, love this one.
