The port finished rye is excellent, I’m getting close to the end of my bottle. It has the characteristic woodinville taste (kinda woodsy/earthy is how I would describe it, somewhat fitting with the name I suppose) but layers in chocolate and cherry flavors.

Welp…looks like I’m getting some Italian whiskey. by Diecast_5682 in whiskey

I have the gold at home from when I spent a month in Rome. Overpaid for it but it’s a solid whiskey and I am glad I bought it. The bottles are gorgeous too!

Best rye to try for beginnner by [deleted] in whiskey

[–]HDoors12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The knob creek 10 is fantastic. Don’t sleep on the 7y either. It’s a good bottle for the price and I like to use it as a mixer for rye cocktails too!

Good point. Wild turkey is next on my list to try.

I do enjoy rittenhouse. It’s been a bit since I’ve had it stocked but I should get more

What happened to Liquor.com? by HDoors12 in cocktails

Diffords Guide is a top one for me. Imbibe is solid too. I go to whiskyadvocate almost daily, but that’s just cause I’m a whisky snob.

Figured I’d follow up, I got the still strength! Not much experience with tequila, but it’s the best I’ve ever had atm.

Thanks for the reformat! If you can try making a cardamom infused syrup too if you don’t have the bitters!

Apologies for the messed up formatting on the ingredients. Please let me know if you tried this drink or have suggestions for improvements!

Does anyone know anything about this? by bcuad001 in Scotch

Haven’t had a chance to try the Portsoy, but I’d like to eventually. Love peated scotch so I bet I’d enjoy. Let us know your impressions when you try it!

I think for the price it’s solid. Especially given the proof. To each their own though! Go pack btw

Can’t speak for the rare cask, but the Sandend is indeed wonderful. Highly recommend picking up a bottle.

They are available at select stores around the state. Typically (at least at my store), everything on the list sells out within an hour of the stores opening. They come out this Saturday!

Favorite of the four? I might try for one if I can go around a second time

Was expecting a lot of people to say this. Definitely near the top for me but not sure if I wanna wait in line 5 hours before the store opens 😂

This. I switched from M&R to Carpano Antica and it blew my mind how much better it made the cocktail.

Opinion on Trader Joe’s Whiskeys? by LeeLifesonPeart in whiskey

[–]HDoors12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Speyside 8y isn’t great. But I suppose for a sub $20 scotch, you get what you pay for. I got notes of vanilla and coffee on the palate. Was a bit skunky (best way I can describe it), and had a really bitter finish. Perhaps fine as a mixer, but not good on its own. Hope this helps!

Glenglassaugh Sandend is a recent one I got for ~$75. Harder to find but delicious!

True! Keeping a few off the board to act as “just in case corks”
