Bowmore 12 Year Old

• Category: Single Malt
• Origin: Scotland
• Author: @TheJason
• Rating: 80/100
• Review: “Really enjoy this. Peaty, but gentle. Can feel a honey and citrus. I’ve heard dark chocolate too and agree (just not sure if I would have gotten to that without hearing it beforehand). Great purchase….. try this one and then try the 18. You’ll love it”

Coopers’ Craft Barrel Reserve

• Category: Bourbon
• Origin: United States
• Author: @mdobie
• Rating: 91/100

Dalwhinnie 15 Year Old

• Category: Single Malt
• Origin: Scotland
• Author: @Ya_Mishenka
• Rating: 55/100

Forty Creek Unity

• Category: Blend
• Origin: Canada
• Author: @jdriip
• Rating: 79/100
• Review: “A little bitter and rough. Maple note stands out. Toffee, dark fruits, caramel, praline, light baking spices and oak notes. Spicy and warming finish.”

George Dickel 15 Year Old

• Category: Tennessee Whiskey
• Origin: United States
• Author: @Jewelliard
