Bourbon Whiskey Reviews Smooth Ambler Old Scout 7 Bourbon Review The aroma is warm, with savory notes of saddle leather, oak, dark caramel, and brown butter. The palate shows a bit more sweetness than the nose, but things still skew more toward the wood and spice corners of the flavor wheel.
American Whiskey Reviews Bernheim Barrel Proof Original Wheat Whiskey Batch A224 Review When Heaven Hill added Bernheim Wheat Whiskey to its barrel-proof portfolio early last year, it filled a big market hole. Wheat whiskeys at any proof are rare, but this barrel-proof offering is the only one from a major brand like it.
American Whiskey Reviews Old Elk Infinity Blend 2023 Review The nose on this latest release is expressive and elegant, burly initially with damp oak and cigar box notes that quickly sweeten to cream soda, buttery cinnamon apples, and Little Debbie Oatmeal Pies.
Bourbon Whiskey Reviews George Dickel Bourbon Aged 18 Years Review The price point is nearly disqualifying. And I thought about it for quite a while. But it is an enjoyable older bourbon, and if you can manage to score a half ounce at whatever bar these end up at, it's worth a try, if only to see what Dickel thinks deserves this price tag.
Bourbon Whiskey Reviews Heaven's Door Bootleg Series Vol. V Review I might recommend making this your only pour of the night or at least your first. It's a bourbon unlike most anything else on the shelves and requires, dare I say, deserves, some devoted attention.
Bourbon Whiskey Reviews Remus Gatsby Reserve Review Remus Gatsby Reserve leads with aromas of caramel, candied dark fruit and saddle leather, with slight brown sugar and very sweet candied notes.
Bourbon Whiskey Reviews Wild Turkey Generations Review This bottle is so unique among the Wild Turkey pantheon that it really has to be experienced and shared, and until another release comes along that tastes this good and carries this kind of backstory, I'm going to say, albeit reluctantly, that it's worth the MSRP.
Rye Whiskey Reviews Michter's US*1 Toasted Barrel Finish Rye Review Michter's actually started the whole toasted finish craze back in 2014, but it wasn't until 2017 that the first toasted rye came along. With this latest release, Michter's has kept to three-year intervals (the second release hit shelves in 2020).
Bourbon Whiskey Reviews Russell's Reserve Single Rickhouse Camp Nelson F Review Despite an MSRP jump of $50 from last year's already wallet-wounding price point, it's still a helluva bourbon. It's also priced to claim a piece of the secondary market pie.
Bourbon Whiskey Reviews Hardin's Creek Boston Review I have to say that of the three expressions, Boston tastes and smells the oldest. The aroma is dense and wood-driven, with notes of rick house, baking chocolate, and damp tobacco.
Bourbon Whiskey Reviews Remus Repeal Reserve VII Review The aroma is not immediately as big or complex as Series V or VI, requiring some time to suss out the nuance and depth. It doesn't take long though before notes of dark caramel, black cherry, and pecan pie rise out of the glass, offering up a rich, classic bourbon bouquet.
Bourbon Whiskey Reviews Four Roses 135th Anniversary Limited Edition Review When I finished the Zoom tasting, I was skeptical about the 25-year-old whiskey in the final blend. Did it contribute that much, or was it just meant to make this Small Batch Limited Edition a little more special on paper for its anniversary?
