Anaya Bautista 5.0

A spirit worthy of intense admiration. Remarkably smooth considering its alcohol content. I detect a slight saltiness at the start and a faint smokiness towards the end. A touch sweeter than Blanton's, but pleasantly so. Perhaps a different barrel than the previous taster experienced. A must-have for my collection.

Adan Jernigan 5.0

Remarkably full-bodied and exceptionally rich. This used to be easily obtainable, but the bourbon boom has depleted supplies. It's a shame, as this was among the finest bourbons one could find.

Miranda Navarro 5.0

Regrettably, the cost of this whiskey is excessive given its quality. While it merits a 5-star rating at $75, it does not at the nearly $500 many are asking.

Kaia Worthington 5.0

Proof that you don't need to distill your own spirit to craft exceptional bourbon. This is so well-rounded, so warm, and toasty.

Bobbie Danner 5.0

Saved some for later but regret not having more.

Cody Mejia 5.0

This is the finest bourbon I've ever had.
