    Rich, dark fruits, baking spices, dried cherries and a hint of chocolate combine with restrained peat in this solid, dependable whisky.

Rich and spicy, with green apple, fruit, pepper, a hint of peat and a long finish of cracked pepper and Cognac.

Soft peat upfront on the nose but I perceive it more as smoke on the palette. Underlying sweetness is there along with an oaky char and muted dried fruit…

A fascinating fusion of rum and bourbon, with molasses, vanilla, caramel, and salted buttery popcorn, this blue-corn whiskey drinks sweeter than an average…

It’s got a little more intensity than I’d expect for something aged so long, but fairly balanced otherwise.

    Warm and sweet with baking spices, baked green apples and vanilla; it turns richer and more complex with air, while the palate is rich, oily and fruity.

    This Yellow Spot is easy on the nose with soft scents of dried fruit and a hard to specify 'sweetness'. Not exactly honeysuckle or vanilla but not too far off…

    Lost power so the only thing worth doing is trying another bottle I picked up. This definitely has your more typical peat scotch flavor with a lot of lingering…

    Not sure how I feel. I'll give it a second go in a few days. It's got a pretty intense flavor right off the bat, but it doesn't linger.

    The reviewer finds sour, bitter flavors of rotten fruit, cloying perfume, and solvent-like spirit, calling it truly noxious.

    This is a delicious pour. This pour is darker and has a redder hue than most Irish whiskeys. Up front, from the first pour, the ethanol coming off of it is…

    Targeting what I drink from my collection based on what’s missing in Peated 😅 Always have loved the classic Scotches and their main bottlings fit that…

    A pleasant Canadian whisky with caramel, cinnamon, vanilla and pepper, though its thin palate and modest complexity keep it from fully matching the nose.
