Maker's Mark Private Selection High Country ABC Alpine Amber #01
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed May 17, 2024This is as good a Maker’s as I have had! In the past some has been very hot and not much to my likybut this is much mellower and for 109 proof im very pleased. Nice hints of maple, honey, oak and other flavors come to bare throughout the taste.80.0 USD per BottleABC Store -
I have to admit the very cool bottle attracted me to this one. The long horn on the front and cap shaped like the wheel of a six shooter… with the ends of the bullet casings showing on the top! Great marketing! As for the bourbon… not disappointed one bit. A bit heavier than a lot inhave tried recently but i like it. Nice wood tones and a hint of florals makes innice smooth bourbon. One to keep around!

George Dickel 15 Year Tennessee Single Barrel
Tennessee Whiskey — Tennessee, USA
Reviewed April 25, 2024Well my old man used to drink George Dickel many moons ago… before single barrel was even a thing. This is the first i have tried as he had switched to Wild Turkey before i had an interest. This was surprisingly mellow and smooth! I also added funky in the tasting profile as there is something I haven’t quite put my finger on as far as flavor hints. But to be fair the brie, meat abd crackers might have been an influence. I usually do my tasting first. But nonetheless… i don’t think this is my father’s George Dickel experience… -
An interesting pour for sure. Adding a couple of drops of water opens it up nicely. I slight build of heat which never gets overpowering which tapers smoothly opening up some flavors along the way. One to keep on the shelf and enjoy on those special occasions.139.71 USD per BottleBlack Bear Wine & Spirits

Daviess County Kentucky Straight Bourbon French Oak Finish
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed March 8, 2024I picked this up on a whim and boy am I pleased! Nice a smooth with just the slightest build of heat around your tongue that rapidly mellows to a rich and complex set of flavors. A nice little smoky/woody flavor on the backside but certainly nothing overwhelming. -
Heaven Hill Bottled In Bond 7 Year
