This was a nice pickup from Red Liquors. Tequila Ocho Reposado Barrel Select Widow Jane Limited Edition Tequila 2022 had enough flavor to stand out, especially the caramel, but still stayed easygoing and easy to drink. The flavor stayed consistent from the first glass to the last.

Luxardo The Original Maraschino Cherries Jar 400G was a good choice for the shelf. It had a rounded feel, and the rich came through without covering up the sweet. I would buy it again for guests. It is a bottle I can see myself ordering again.

This made a really clean gin drink. I picked up Leopold's American Small Batch Gin for a small get-together and it went over well. The citrus and balanced notes stood out most to me, with a finish that felt warm.

I used Tomatin 14 Year Old Port Cask Single Malt Scotch Whisky over the weekend and liked it more than I expected. It was bright, with a nice touch of smooth and honey. Good bottle for the price.

This was a nice pickup from Red Liquors. Captain Morgan Original Spiced Rum had enough flavor to stand out, especially the spice, but still stayed warm and easy to drink.

Bacoo 12 Year Old Rum was a good choice for the shelf. It had a warm feel, and the spice came through without covering up the chocolate. I would buy it again for guests.

Nixta Licor De Elote was a good choice for the shelf. It had a balanced feel, and the rich came through without covering up the smooth. I would buy it again for guests.

The fruit came through nicely without being too heavy. I served it chilled and it opened up nicely. The smooth was pleasant, the fruit gave it some depth, and the finish stayed balanced.

Jacob's Pardon 18 Year Small Batch Recipe #3 worked exactly how I needed it to. Smooth enough to drink casually, but flavorful enough that the vanilla and caramel did not get lost. Happy with it.
