TheWhiskeyJug 1.5

Aroma is unpleasant and off, yeasty, like the oak and the spirit never fully connected and they just sat at odds with each other in an underground bunker at a constant temperature to prevent anything more than surface contact; Palate follows the same spirit-forward, bottom-rick, raw grain profile that just.. doesn’t… feel… right; Finish is thankfully short, though grainy and cloyingly fruity in its short miserable existence.

dmbosstone 2.5

Nose: Peanuts, vanilla Palate: Light, grassy Finish: Short, tannic The bottle says Kentucky's Best but this is not... Kentucky's Best. This TJ private label is sourced from Lux Row. The liquid looks light, tastes light. Probably best as a mixer or deglazing pans.

Craiger Bootlegger 2.3

Boy this is a tough one to sip on. Not much to the nose but a touch of caramel and watered down tangerine. Palate is smooth oaky vanilla and floral peachy notes on the finish. Medium finish which is surprising for a 40 abv whiskey

Mastoth 2.0

Not Kentucky's best to say the least. Thin and papery flavor. Finishes with alcohol heat and spice, but a watery flavor lingers. Certainly bottom shelf.

hartwigcurt 4.0

80 proof. $16. Charred oak, corn, apples, cinnamon, toasted caramel, tastes higher proof, wheat, orange, vanilla, buttery. Great for the price.

Exelixi 2.0

Tastes young, bright, slightly sweet, and pretty harsh. Dont much care for it at all.
