Lexie Villasenor 2.0

I'm quite certain this is the Shibui I tried earlier tonight, and I really didn't care for it. And at $22 an ounce, it definitely left me unsatisfied ☹️

Cameron Horner 4.5

Received this for my 50th birthday, and it's nice, rich, smooth with a spice integrated within.

Lidia Barbour 3.5

A mellow nose with hints of caramel. Smooth, woody flavor with good balance. Short finish.

Pasquale Ham 3.0

A thinner tasting Yamazaki.
