Casey Silver 2.0

The whiskey is smooth, but the aroma smells like paint thinner. I almost couldn't proceed to taste it.

Erma Briscoe 3.0

The nose is rough, and the aftertaste has a lingering burn that doesn't fade. It would likely benefit from aging.

Katie Coles 2.0

Very medicinal, might be better for mixing.

Rafael Bair 3.0

Could use a bit more time aging.

Karly Maher 2.5

Required ice. Little flavor.
