  • Booker’s (2020-01, “Granny’s Batch”) Scoresheet & Review

    Booker’s (2020-01, “Granny’s Batch”) Scoresheet & Review

    I was already late to the whiskey game by the time I decided to jump on board, but Booker’s is a brand that I’ve felt that poor timing hit the hardest. The first time I consciously noticed a bottle it was $80, right around the time Jim Beam announced that…

    Rabbit Hole Dareringer Scoresheet & Review

    Confession time: I’m not the biggest fan of sherry-finished whiskey. The first time I was consciously aware that a whiskey I was drinking had any sort of sherry influence was the Glenmorangie Lasanta, a finished version of the classic Glenmorangie.

    Old Grand Dad 114 Scoresheet & Review

    We all know that a whiskey shouldn’t be judged by its bottle. If we did, Willett Pot Still would garner more praise than Wild Turkey Master’s Keep bottles. Yet we are fallible creatures. My potential error was never giving Old Grand Dad a shot due to the name and bottle…

    Jim Beam Signature Craft Six Row Barley Scoresheet & Review

    Jim Beam probably isn’t the first brand you think of when the words “limited” and “quality” are brought up. Yet that’s precisely what one would likely describe their Signature Craft lineup as. This collection consisted of six expressions, each sold in a 375mL bottle and aged for 11 years. Today…
