Christopher
Christopher,
Nice smoky/spicy whiskey.
 
Christopher
Christopher,
Not that sweet considering what it is made of. Not terribly smooth, neither. Not bad, but not worth buying again.
 
Scott
Scott,
Good flavor, a little harsh/burn after it goes down. All in all a good option that I will buy again.

Patrick,
Definitely true to its name. Like a rolling thunder in your mouth!

Wes,
Little bit sweet for my liking, but a good after-dinner drink.
 
Anthony
Anthony,
nose: honey, rose petals, lots of citrus primarily apricot, wood, some leather, a little apple palate: vanilla, apple, lots of spiciness, medium mouthfeel finish: a little bitter apple with sugar and honey overall: great nose, flavors on the palate were sweet and good but probably best served as a mixer in an old fashion or equivalent

Rich, soft bourbon, with a smooth almost sweet finish. Perfect for after dinner conversation.
 
Jeff
Jeff,
Very tasty, but definitely not a daily drinker. Almost a dessert whiskey, almost a rum not a whiskey. More of a novelty for your bar than a regular drinker.

Lovely in the glass, this this is a tasty treat for those overwhelmed by other whiskies. Warm, without the burn, unique taste, with a pleasant, sweet/floral/vanilla finnish.

Awesome drink for when you want to take a slight step away from a normal whiskey.
 
Jon
Jon,
I agree with other reviews in that it should be classified as a rum given it's honey and sugar base. There's nothing whiskey about the initial ingredients, though the aging does add a more robust aroma and mouth feel than is typical of rums.
 
Craig
Craig,
I call this a "rumskey". Whiskey on the front (definitely picking up the vanilla notes), fruitiness on the back-end. Smells great, very tasty.
 
Michael
Michael,
Amazingly tasty! The figs are in the background, but the sweetness is undeniable!!
 
John
John,
This is one smooth and flavorful drink, if you haven't tried it, you're missing a great experience

Hints of rum flavor & nose, plays like a whiskey. Totally unique. Sweet without being obnoxious, just the right mix of sugar, fig & honey. Love this spirit!
