Whiskey madness

D4 v D5

D4-nose: Great nose, caramel, vanilla, earthy, floral
pallet: dark chocolate, tart, good mouth feel, long finish

D5- nose: Cherry, brown sugar, proof
pallet: vanilla, cherry, oak, spice, great mouth feel, great finish.

this was a very tough decision. Both of these were great pours and I am sure that a popular selection was eliminated here. First real tough head to head and someone is losing their horse in the race.

Winner: D5

D8 v D6

D8-nose: cinnamon, caramel, oak, proof
pallet: cherry, vanilla, cinnamon, great mouth feel, long finish, wow.

D6- nose: brine, wood
pallet: bitter, tannins, short finish

winner: D8 with a knockout.

I present to you your sweet 16

I Paid $109 for the 15 a few weeks back. Good, but I don't think I'm buying again...

You drink how you want. I only use the bottles I don’t really like for my old fashinoneds. Otherwise they never get finished

Whiskey madness sweet 16

A1 v A2

A1- nose: baking spice, mint, oak
pallet: oak, pepper, dill, good mouth feel, long finish

A2: nose: grass, citrus
pallet: bright/young, citrus zest, dry, medium finish

Winner: A1

A4 v A6

A4: nose: vanilla, peppermint, grass
pallet: baking spice, cinnamon, sweet, good oily mouth feel, long finish, mellow no burn. lingering after taste like a candy cane,

A6- nose: cinnamon, char, vanilla, earthy
pallet: cinnamon, citrus, oak, good mouth feel , long fish with some spice.

Wow this was a heavy weight bout, both are fantastic. A6 seems stronger proof, but A4 is over 100 itself and the the taste and lingering aftertaste from A4 is just to good to pass up.

winner: A4
