Andres Matlock 4.8

This is an exceptional whiskey. Whether it's aged for 10 years or a 10th anniversary bottling doesn't matter. Even at 62.7% ABV, it drinks like a much more mature spirit. The nose and initial taste are very similar to their Brimstone offering, but with a welcome sherry influence that complements it perfectly. The smoke reminds me of burning Post Oak and Mesquite, but it's never unpleasant. If you have the chance to get this bottle, you'd be foolish not to purchase two.

Richard Chacon 4.3

My goodness, I'm not sure I've encountered a flavor quite like this before.
