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

If you’re known by the company you keep, OH BOY do I have a story for you.
Overall Rating: ★☆☆
The Japanese approach to vodka has created a very good product. I wonder, however: is it possible to create a truly great product?
Overall Rating: ★★☆
Yes, it’s everywhere. Yes, Canadian Whisky is a maligned category. And yet, even the experienced whisky lover might be surprised by how Crown Royal avails itself.
Overall Rating: ★★☆
If you ask me, Johnnie Walker Black label is a “good enough” whisky that's made just the slightest bit better by the fact that it's available everywhere. It's interesting enough as a product to take a critical look at.
Overall Rating: ★★☆
It’s been some time since we saw a Vodka around these parts. Time to dig into one that turned out to be surprisingly good!
Overall Rating: ★★★
Being basic should be easy as we head into the season of pumpkin spice everything, but Captain Morgan turns it into challenging work.

So, if you're convinced you can pretty much close your eyes and imagine what a tequila tastes like, have I got a curve ball for you.
Overall Rating: ★★☆
Ass, gas, or grass? On the basis of what's in the bottle, Zubrowka makes a really good case for joining team grass.

"Who drinks gin straight?" some people ask. Take my word for it: they're out there, and Nolet's is a gin those people are likely going to appreciate.
Overall Rating: ★★★
Is there such a thing as a "light" mezcal? Does such a product have any reason to exist? Yes, and yes. The Fidencio Único (now called Sin Humo) isn't an ass-kicker, but it also isn't a lame-also-ran. Overall Rating: ★★☆
White rums are pretty boring. At least I thought so before I snagged a bottle of this. Proving yourself wrong is rarely this enjoyable. Overall Rating: ★★★
Pineapple rum used to be a thing. Then it waned in popularity. Now it's back thanks to Plantation and author David Wondrich, who are doing the lord's work. Overall Rating: ★★★
If you're looking for a "wheater" bourbon to see what the category is all about, I'd say there are better locks to shove your key into. Overall Rating: ★☆☆
Yes, it's a $14 brandy. By all accounts it should be terrible, but either I'm a broken person or there's a lot of value and comfort here.
