Sean Garza 3.8

This isn't your typical scotch; the tequila cask treatment is surprisingly effective for me. It's sweet with a salty character that persists on the palate. I'm unsure if I'd get a whole bottle, but it's certainly worth sampling.

Marquis Montalvo 4.0

A strong tequila flavor emerges. High alcohol content but good.

Hazel Hare 4.0

A pleasant and revealing aroma, with notes of mint and chocolate.

Leigh Limon 4.0

Sweet with a little heat.
