Yeah it seems most people are; I appear to be in the minority. I can’t define the particular note, but there’s a specific flavor in it that is off putting to me. It’s really good otherwise, but that one note makes it difficult for me to truly enjoy. This barrel pick has that note muted a bit.

#6 is delicious. Its better than #5. I overpaid probably $20-$30 for it though. For sure worth it for me. I don't mind spending up on things I really want.

I get some acrid oak tannins on some Barton stuff.

Thoughts on that peated HW?

I really liked it a lot. You can really get the peat from the first whiff. I definitely recommend for anyone who likes scotch. I'll try again this week.

Interesting. The LBC JD rye has that note as well. Otherwise I actually haven't come across it.

2pd is a good one from Lincoln road

I picked up on it immediately when we were going through the samples for this pick, it’s a note that I have to be in the mood for, not something I’ll go to every day.
