Ferrand 10 Generations Cognac

Ferrand 10 Generations Cognac

A pretty terrific Cognac. Enough boundaries are being pushed here to make this worth one's while.
Overall Rating: ★★★

Knappogue Castle 14 Irish Whiskey

Knappogue Castle 14 Irish Whiskey

A little late for St. Patrick’s Day, but any time of year is a great time for this underappreciated Irish Whiskey.
Overall Rating: ★★★

Hennessy VS Cognac

Hennessy VS Cognac

A 'Yac that isn't Yuck and won't make you Yack, but yoked to a $50 price point? Yeesh! Personally, I yearn for other young 'Yacs, which yield better results and fewer yawns.
Overall Rating: ★☆☆

Speyburn 10 Single Malt Scotch

Speyburn 10 Single Malt Scotch

A “budget” single malt scotch with an age statement? Sure! It’s suspiciously cheap, but don’t let that deter you from a try.
Overall Rating: ★★☆

Tullamore DEW

Tullamore DEW

An underachieving whiskey for sure. If you're wondering if the alternative to Bushmills and Jameson is any good, it really isn't.
Overall Rating:   

Deanston 12 Scotch Whisky

Deanston 12 Scotch Whisky

Be warned: sometimes "craft" products in the booze world are about as similarly uninspiring as cable-knit iPhone caddies, overpriced essential oils, or rocks painted like sleeping cats.   Overall Rating: ★☆☆

Fortaleza Reposado

Fortaleza Reposado

Looking for a reposado that doesn't taste like an unappealing compromise? We've got the bottle for you in the Fortaleza.  Overall Rating: ★★★

Glenlivet 15 French Oak Reserve

Glenlivet 15 French Oak Reserve

A lot of people (unfairly) pass over the entire Glenlivet range figuring the distillery is too big to be good. Those people would be missing out on the 15.
