  • By Richard Thomas
  • The flavor is lively and fruity, but also just a bit hotter than I was expecting for a whiskey with alcohol content in the middle 50s.

  • The Whiskey Wash
  • By Will Meek
  • Deep and rich classic bourbon profile (oak, vanilla, caramel) with unique tones around each corner (candy, walnuts), and cask strength. The mouthfeel and depth of flavor are dialed in, and it would be very easy to drink this down very quickly.

  • By Fred Minnick
  • This beautiful study of barrel strength bourbon needs no water. Caramel in all forms, from candied to syrup, follows this home for a long and delightful finish.
