Spice. Cinnamon and peppercorns. Slight hint of cocoa. Not much of what I call “barrel flavor.” Smooth, drinkable, and delicious.

Sherry and vanilla. It's quite woody and has a fairly short finish. It's alright, but there is not a lot of character to it.

Warm and oranges. Finish is a little pepery. At cask strength it has too much bite. With a few drops of water a few new flavours such as butterscotch and a few herbal notes come out.

Sweet orange, hints of chocolate, and a long woody finish. A few drops of water hide some of the alcohol sharpness and the flavours come out a tiny bit more.

Sweet and vanilla. Medium finish which is a little grassy.

Smooth and with quite some oomph. I prefer it with a few drops of water.

Light, sweet, with creamy citrus. Medium finish which is a little spicy.

Sweetish vanilla. And oh so smokey and peaty. Maybe a little too much. Medium long finish.

Mouthy and woody.

Ash, a little honey and mezcal. Finish is ash and smoke. Needs a few drops of water, which makes the aftertaste a wee bit creamy.

Spicy and herbal. A little sweet with a woody finish. Much closer to a whisky than most rums

The official tasting notes on the website state "graham cracker, pound cake, plum, and thin mints await," and I agree with all of that, though the flavors are very subtle. Smooth and easy to sip.

Sherry and leather. A bit musky with a medium long and really woody finish.

Apple, fruity, and a little sweet. A bit of a bite with a medium to long finish.

Sweet like honey and oranges, with ginger spice. Herbal and liquorice after taste that lingers long. Quite harsh, but a few drops of water makes it a little better with the ginger being much stronger. #WhiskyOfTheMonth

Oak, vanilla, cloves, musky. It’s good, but the complexity is muted, possibly due to the higher alcohol content.

Wow. This is a cacophony of complex flavors. Black pepper, cinnamon, allspice, apple pie, brown sugar, lemon, slightly medicinal, …

Brown sugar and maple notes. Hint of cinnamon and vanilla.

Sweet marmalade. Sugary. Orange lollipop. More like a Cointreau digestive than a gin.

Lovely deep flavours. Sweet with a hint if vanilla. But also fiery and full of peat.

Sweet and a little smokey.

Properly chewy and loads of peat. However. It doesn't overpower the sweet honey notes. Finish is long, warming, and a little woody with a nice burn from the higher ABV.

Strong and warming, yet mildly sweet and surprisingly mellow. The first whiff seemed astringent, but after letting it sit in the glass a bit, it has mellowed out.

Peaty, and woody. Very woody. Maybe a little apple. Short and dry finish, perhaps a little alcoholic.

Butterscotch, creamy and some nutmeg. Woody on the short finish. Disappointing.

Sweet with vanilla and very woody. It's quite strong, and a few drops makes it quite a bit more palatable.
