1st of the flight. A nice palate opener. Not complex but a nice starter to the tasting. This is the Distillers version which they say is better than the 15 but not as good as the 25. — 5 years ago

The 2014 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru certainly has one of the more attractive bouquets with redcurrant and cranberry, a touch of tobacco and marine aromas (cockle sheds I used to play on in the Thames Estuary). The palate is well balanced, with a touch of curry leaf on the entry and more black than red fruit. The 2014 has a firm grip with a noticeable backbone, yet the finish has plenty of freshness. Drinking well now, but there are a few years left to enjoy. (Neal Martin, Vinous, June 2024)

Buffalo Trace Distillery

Sazerac Kentucky Straight Rye Whiskey

9.3

How does anyone not hoard (regular) Sazerac at ~$25?!
Incredibly smooth, great sweet note to the finish. Again, why haven't I not been buying this for years...?

(BTW Kirkland Bourbon at $30 is worth the price of admission, earthy oak note on the palate is quite similar to Buffalo Trace.)

Yes to Rye, my ‘go to’ for a category I don’t venture into often.

Surprisingly Eagle Rare 10 is highly allocated this year if you’ve had in the past. One bottle only on K&L

Daniel Bloom

Nice assortment, if I remember correctly,
Kirkland 12 yr scotch is McCallan.

9.1

The best possible medium plus ballpark frank aromas then bright and birch-y (if I dare say so) on the palate. Smoke is the calling card, earth and bakery aromas back it up. — 3 years ago

@Paul T- Huntington Beach it’s a bit on you, thanks to trying Glenmorangie now by mind is expanded if not too much. But seriously you shared one of the first Scotches you told me old!

Paul T HB

Yeah I remember, but this bottle has some serious Peat & Smoke. Nice upgrade. Great winter nights pour
