Cambio Tequila Blanco Review

Cambio Tequila Blanco Review

The palate is even more exciting. It's simultaneously sweet and tart, coating yet refreshing. Imagine an adult version of Sprite that's alcoholic, tingly, lightly sweet but with the tang of tamarind–and you want to sip it neat all the time.

New King of Kentucky Small Batch: 3 proofs, 12-18 year bourbons

New King of Kentucky Small Batch: 3 proofs, 12-18 year bourbons

What’s so appealing about King of Kentucky is that while mostly traditional bourbon notes are expressed in it, all are turned up to 11. That makes it one my favorite bourbons ever. It’s liquid goodness amplified by time, heat-cycled warehouses and a caretaker’s patience.
