Old Fitzgerald 10yr BIB
Drinkable but not worth the price. Has various barn notes, not a lot of sweet ones.
Scarlet Shade Straight Rye Whiskey
Musty. Not very sweet. Peaty
Smoke Wagon WC Elevator Batch
Not a lot of sweet notes. Earthy tones
Glenlivet Single Malt Scotch 12yr
A bit earthy. Not particularly sweet
Breckenridge Whiskey Port Cask Finish
I think I would prefer this over rocks. Tastes like a light port wine. Sugary, fruity, mild peppery finish.
Pappy Van Winkle Family Reserve 20 Years Old
Bitter spiciness. Let's Oklahoma by for sweet notes
Baby Jane
Better offerings in this price range. Spicy lacking smoothness and sweetness
Woodford Reserve "Sweet Oak Bourbon"
Spicey finish. Sweet notes don't endure.
Peg Leg Porker Tennessee Straight Bourbon Whiskey
Not too sweet. Earthy finish.
1792 Full Proof
Lightly spicy throughout, mildly sweet. Bitter finish
Bardstown Origin Series BIB
Light leathery, mild sweet notes. Enjoyed it but prefer others in this price range
Basil Hayden 10yr
Smooth and light. Like the lite beer of Bourbon (80pf). Doesn't offer enough for me
Four Roses Small Batch
Love the single barrel but this one not so much
Henry McKenna Single Barrel 10yr
Like it but prefer other bottles in this price range
Iron Wolf Ranch
Nice orange aroma. Kinda hits hard from the start. A bit bitter and spicy throughout.
Jefferson Ocean Straight
Not too sweet. Uninspiring.
Jim Beam Black 7yr
Has a light taste. Sweet initial taste is taken over by husky flavor. Not bad for the price but prefer others in this price range
King of Kentucky 12yr Batch 1
Similar to the 17yr for me. A bit peaty with few sweet notes
Knob Creek 12yr
Knob Creek 12 Year Old is a well-aged, full-bodied bourbon with rich notes of oak, dark fruit, and a touch of spice. It offers a smooth, lingering finish that showcases its maturity.
Knob Creek 21yr
Didn't do anything for me. Too spicy
Larceny Small Batch
Maker's Mark Golden Hour Barrel Select
Not worth the price. Don't taste sweet notes. Not particularly smooth (feel burn pretty quickly but not too strong)
Nine Banded Wheated
A little spicy, some nice sweet notes but not smooth enough for the price
Old Bardstown
Not too spicy. Not bad for the price. A sweet note is hidden by a bitter leathery taste.
Old Elk Cigar Cut
Strong. Sweet but indistinctive, paralleled with spiciness that lasts until end.
Oregon Spirit Straight
Spicey, not as sweet.
Rabbit Hole Cavehill
Not bad, not too spicey, just uninspiring for $60 at Total Wine
Rare Character Batches 5 and 12
Don't compare to Batches 8 and 14
Tincup Fourteener
Not bad. Like the sweet notes, but price is a bit high for what you get.
Torch Tree 7yr
I tried it at the Smoke event in Barton Creek.
Wild Turkey 101
Wasn't impressed. A bit spicy with not many sweet notes
Woodford Reserve Double Oaked
Prefer others at this price. Hearty flavor, a bit leathery. Sweet notes are fleeting, quickly replaced with leathery slight spiciness. Would buy at lower price
