Nice travel pack. Prices and availability are finally heading in the right direction. Second is a cocktail in a bottle. Just add a little ice. [img]https://i.imgur.com/0nLimam.jpeg[/img]...

I need to try more 13th colony. I had a sample of the first cask strength last year, and it was incredible. ...

I'm a big fan of that Disco 11. Re: other spirits, I have always felt that way too with neat pours. I like gin, but in a good martini. Something about tequila's profile has always been off putting to me, even the better stuff. The biggest issue I've had with rum is the sweetness, but this four ...

Good evening gentlemen. Curious as to what everyone's favorite non whiskey pour is? I'm impressed by this sample. [img]https://i.imgur.com/vZGZrun.jpeg[/img]...

2nd is a cocktail. This EC pick is easily one of my favorite SP's this year. [img]https://i.imgur.com/tAgQJ6f.jpeg[/img]...

Good evening t00f. Going with a couple of finished, easy sippers to start. [img]https://i.imgur.com/9SGriWf.jpeg[/img]...

Hell of a game! They've got confidence and a lot of momentum to carry into the postseason. [img]https://i.imgur.com/Lu94xtq.jpeg[/img] ...

Good evening gentlemen. I cracked this a few days ago, but wanted to let it open up a little bit before posting impressions. It's on the sweeter side (not surprising given the distillate) with some cinnamon and pepper to balance things out. There's a ton of fruit (cherry, apricot, citrus, fig...

Helldiver was the first pour. I'll wait for it to open up before posting notes, but it's impressive 2pd was good neat, but I think it's going to shine in cocktails. Let's see. [img]https://i.imgur.com/ondRVC4.jpeg[/img] ...

Good evening gentlemen. I try to get one of those (Larceny) each year. I'm interested in hearing how it compares to other batches. Agree about the neck pours. I also find that most wheated bourbons drink higher than their proofs. If you add about ten points to what's on the bottle, you'll probab...

The mizunara is good. It's well balanced. Berries stand out in terms of fruit and there's consistent peppery spice throughout. It's not overly sweet which I appreciate. It's not as oaky as the vantage. I didn't pick up the coconut that others have mentioned in reviews, but that could be a function o...

Checking in with the newest offering from barrell. Given how much I enjoyed Vantage, I've been looking forward to this one since it was announced. [img]https://i.imgur.com/pvysm3x.jpeg[/img]...
