re: Whiskey/Bourbon/Scotch Volume III

The upside is those Kluke batches are released pretty frequently and are very consistent. I was a little worried about quality dropping with bigger batches, but that's not been the case. First for me is a Manhattan. One would think willett could invest in a more reliable cork. At least what's in...

I was excited to come across this one last week. First pour of the day is my second pour from the bottle. [img]https://i.imgur.com/z74WdeZ.jpeg[/img]...

The green river sib made a nice first impression. Good bit of fruit and spice. I'm enjoying this one so far. [img]https://i.imgur.com/HZGWAiK.jpeg[/img] ...

Yes, I responded the same evening! I'll send you another message. Thanks for holding it. Just picked up this one today. I'm impressed by the regular line, especially for the price. [img]https://i.imgur.com/b3XaVSl.jpeg[/img]...

[quote]I don’t have a ton of exposure to scotch,[/quote Same here. I have several expressions of macallan and aberlour, but that's about it in terms of the home bar. I'm not a big fan of peat so look for the ones without it. It tends to overpower the other flavors for me. I have had several expre...

Welcome back epic! I bet that's an especially good pour. t00f, How does the 8 compare to previous releases? I nearly bought it, but still have a good bit left of 6 and 7. I decided to go with a little Bardstown flight tonight. [img]https://i.imgur.com/ggSDsIO.jpeg[/img]...

Good evening gentlemen. Starting with an easy sipping yet complex rye. There's so much fruit and oak to go along with the spice. [img]https://i.imgur.com/TWIZ756.jpeg[/img]...

I'd like to try that one. The starlight white port from Maisanos is one of my favorites. This Chattanooga has some of the same notes. Ton of light fruit with a little cherry and chocolate mixed in. ...

Sinatra, 10, and 12 in that order. If you start with the 12, you'll be disappointed by the other two. It's also usually a good idea to start with lower proofs and work your way up. The ryes are completely different from each other and from the others so there's not much use in comparing. Bre...

Epic, glad it's coming back. You've got my sympathy. I had two bouts in six months and lost smell/taste both times. Few things compare to the first drink at 100%. I think the pepper decanter is their distillate. I'm not giving up on it after one pour. The bottle is a keeper either way. Finish...

First impression is that it's 35-40 dollar whiskey dressed in a nice bottle. It's not bad but there are a lot of better options for the price (or below). Hopefully it'll get better with some air. Second is something that never disappoints [img]https://i.imgur.com/6JI5t9L.jpeg[/img] ...
