Cream of Kentucky Cask Strength Bourbon Review: Is It Worth $95?
It finishes warm and hangs around a long time. Judging by its light color and lean mouthfeel, it’s about 5 years old, which would explain its lack of complexity.

Woodinville 8-year Straight Bourbon Whiskey Review
This is a dense bourbon, and deep, dark oak tones dominate and before cooked stone fruit, dried figs and baking spices roll across the palate, sweetening the whole.
Mary Dowling Tequila Barrel Finished Bourbon Review
This feather-light whiskey is a malt drinker’s bourbon, which, based on conversations I’ve had with Zamanian, who is a Scotch lover, may well be what he was after.
Michter’s 2024 10 Year Single Barrel Straight Rye Whiskey Review
But that’s not as fun as pointing to that classic nose of bubble gum, dried flowers and fruit pastries. The barrel has a say, of course, introducing spice and tannin sotto voce, while letting tropical fruit and bruleed sugar speak a bit louder.
Redbreast Irish Whiskey Missouri Oak Edition Review
If you’re a lower-proof, softer whiskey fan, this is made for you. It’s a cozy drink, a warming dram that will leave you cheerful and summoning someone to bring the bottle for more.
Russell’s Reserve 15 Year Old Bourbon Review
The nose is brooding and dark with a crispy foundation of chocolaty barrel char slathered in notes of dark berry jam, orange marmalade, and overcooked caramel. It’s one of the more intense Wild Turkey noses I’ve experienced.
Heaven Hill Grain to Glass Bourbon Review
Like those whiskeys, this is expressive and well-spiced. The nose shows more barrel notes than the wheated release, with plenty of oak and clove, but there’s a thick layer of caramel sauce and gooey apple pie underneath that makes for a silky, sweet aroma.
Old Fitzgerald 10 Year Old Bottled In Bond Bourbon Review (Spring 2024)
The aroma is initially a bit gritty and grain-forward, with lots of roasted cereal and creamed corn upfront. With time to unwind, silkier notes of butterscotch, vanilla pudding, and peanut butter arrive, but there’s still not a ton of depth.
Entremanos Tequila Blanco Review
The nose starts a little funky but intriguing, with warmed butter and mozzarella cheese drifting into herbal characters like spearmint and dried sage.
Angel’s Envy Cask Strength Bottled-In-Bond Bourbon Review
If you’re even semi-American whiskey savvy, you recognize the phrase in this bottle’s name: Cask Strength Bottled-In-Bond Bourbon. Well, it’s true: no water was added to achieve 100 proof; just the mingling of sub- and above-100-proof casks to attain that essential proof for BIB.
