    Bernheim Scoresheet & Review

    One of the more peculiar observations regarding American whiskey is how consumers tend to favor wheated bourbons more than wheat whiskey. I already mentioned how odd it is that there aren’t more of the former out there, but the latter appears to be almost completely untapped. Other than Woodford Reserve,…

    Larceny Scoresheet & Review

    I have an odd history with Larceny. It was one of the first brands I reached for when acclimating to neat pours, and let’s just say my impressions weren’t overly enthusiastic. Despite this, I’ve revisited it more than other expressions, so why do I keep coming back? In a word:…

    Jim Beam Signature Craft Triticale Scoresheet & Review

    Not long ago, I took a look at one of Jim Beam’s Signature Craft expressions from 2014. The one in question, Six Row Barley, ended up being a bit of a grower, but was ultimately a pour to appreciate rather than outright enjoy. Today’s expression is a bit different in…
