I’ve been interested in exploring more tequilas, but before I branch out, I want to cover all the basic, popular options. I’ve reviewed Casamigos and Don Julio before, but I want to drink them side by side to see which is better. We’re going to discuss the differences in taste, flavor, and production. Is one…
You may find yourself walking through the aisle of a liquor store when a snowy bottle of Jack Daniel’s catches your eye – a spiced apple punch cider. ‘I wonder if this is good’. ‘I wonder if I can make some fun holiday themed cocktails with this’. Well, that’s precisely what went through my mind….
It comes time to pick up a bottle of tequila for the party. You’re not 20 years old, and you want something decent, or at least something that appears decent.

I recently reviewed Widow Jane Paradigm Rye, and I loved it. It was a blend of Widow Jane’s in-house distilled whiskey with MGP and a KY distillery. I liked it so much that I decided to try Widow Jane 10 Year Bourbon – their standard offering, a blend of bourbons aged 10 years. First off,…
I’ve drunken a lot of whiskey in my days, but Japanese whisky is really an untapped category for me. I mean, I’ve had my fair share of American whiskeys and bourbon, I’ve got a long ways to go when it comes to Irish and Scotch whisky, but I’ve only had a few sips of Japanese…
Over a year ago, I reviewed Blue Note Juke Joint Bourbon, and I really liked it. To this day, I recommend Blue Note Juke Joint to people looking for a good ~$30 bottle of whiskey. I have my suspicions that the single barrel version of Juke Joint – Uncut – will be even better. I’m…

I have individually reviewed every Johnnie Walker from Red Label to Blue Label (Red, Black, Double Black, Green, Gold, 18 Year, Blue). Now, I had an idea of which was best, or at least my favorite. I also had an idea of which was worst, or my least favorite. However, you can’t truly escape your…
We’ve made it through the whole Johnnie Walker lineup to arrive at our final whisky, Johnnie Walker Blue Label. Blue Label is the most expensive of the series (Not counting Blue King George V). A 750ml bottle will cost you upwards of $200, but we’ve settled for a $70 200ml bottle. Is Johnnie Walker Blue…
