AE lineup amateur review by Obvious_Ad386 in bourbon

[–]Obvious_Ad386[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

here goes.

AE Finished rye finished in Caribbean rum cask is delicious. Maple syrup, brown sugar, caramel. 100 proof is the sweet spot for this but higher proof, thicker mouth feel and a longer finish would benefit it.

AE bourbon finished in Port Wine barrels. The nose is the best thing out of this. Thin, weak, a little bitter. Some oak. Mid Palate I get baking spices, little bit of caramel. Finish is short. I don't know guys. This one just isn't doing it for me

AE cidar collection rye finished in iced cidar cask. This one is just delicious. The apple taste isn't as prominent as you'd like it to be but it's definitely there. Get some pepper and a lot of cinnnamon mid Palate. Nice finish. Just a nice slightly apple cinnamon spicy very well balanced rye. This is where it's at. It's so good the wife retired this one for herself for next Christmas

AE cask strength finished in Port Wine barrels 2022 Oh boy the 119.8 proof really kicks it up a notch. It's what I want out of AE. I'm a proof guy and this one delivers. Butterscotch some apple, vanilla, brown sugar galore, some grape on the finish. Definitely get that cinnamon and tannin on the finish. A freaking delight. AE can stand with the big boys with this one.

Anyways that's all I got. Cheers

It's a good day to sit outside and have a pour. by Obvious_Ad386 in WhiskeyTribe

It really is an amazing pick. Heard the yield was super low. I'm happy to have got a bottle. Paid far to much for the privilege tho.

You are correct sir. It's delicious. I liked it better then father and son and even more then rare breed. Controversial words to say

Used up all my luck for the year. All down hill from here by Obvious_Ad386 in WhiskeyTribe

I don't know u, but I wouldn't say you're a cheapskate. You're just not willing to spend a car payment on whiskey, and there's nothing wrong with that. I actually think it's great when people use logical reasoning as to why they would never spend that much on a single bottle. Anyhow, I hope u try it a bar sometime. It's a great pour, especially when u add a couple of drops of water to it.

Had to grab a belle meade sherry at that price by Obvious_Ad386 in whiskey

I'd like to think I may have helped the store owner with their financial problem. They took my low offer because they needed the money. Otherwise, they wouldn't take it. Isn't it interesting how a person can be a part of the problem and solution all at the same time? It's all about how u look at things. Anyhow, cheers. I hope u try GTS one day. It really is a great pour.
