This is a collaboration with Scotch whisky Master Blender Maureen Robinson, a rare, third-edition blended Bourbon combining four, five, eight and nine-year-old Kentucky Straight Bourbons with mash bills of corn, wheat, and malted barley. Robust in molasses and smoky overtones, it has a nice long finish of orange peel and vanilla with a subtle Scotch-like hint of peat. 100 proof.
Each can contains 1.5 shots of Blanco tequila (NOM 1459). Its low sugar content and mostly organic juice make for a natural sipper. The flavor is reminiscent of ginger beer with ripe guava and lime flavors. Balanced and refreshing.
Tropical notes of pineapple, with persimmon and jasmine. The aromas are fantastic and linger, along with a finish of tangerine.
This small batch spirit introduces itself through its showstopper perfume of cherry and toasty vanilla biscuit. A stream of flavors ensues, from egg cream to maple syrup, burnt orange peel, and cinnamon. This is an un-common spirit, its generous, just-baked gingerbread, ripe peach, and sandalwood romancing the palate.
From its alluring peanut brittle nose to the mocha-latte notes surging forward in its opening salvo, there exists a creamy, “playfulness” on the palate. Maple and peach pie add to the spirits’s full body, and it is distinguished by its broad, lengthy finish.
A dignified perfume of peach and new leather accompanied by a sumptuous mouthfeel. Coffee bean, chocolate almond, and cigar leaf keep the palate occupied, while creamy caramel-peach sends along a neighborly singed marshmallow note from mid-way to finish.
Its savory perfume delivers tobacco, peach pie, and vanilla wafers; woodsy and dark. This is a full-throttle style, with black pepper and cinnamon seasoning its unctuous, smoldering coat of walnut and cedar. Maple-lined peaches soften the finish.
Made on the island of Maui from certified-organic sugar cane and ocean water full of magnesium, potassium and calcium drawn from 3,000-feet deep off the Kona Coast of the Big Island, this is a small-batch Vodka with great intensity and clarity, founded on aromas and flavors of citrus and wet stone. The sugar cane is island-grown and consists of 30-plus heirloom varieties that have been planted, farmed and harvested by Ocean Organic Farm & Distillery.
