Whaler's Dark Rum

Whaler's Dark Rum

Cat's out of the bag, reader: you might have noticed that this is a “review” site. And in the context of a “review” site, talking about a bottle like Whaler's is thorny.

Oxley Gin

Oxley Gin

About as close as a gin distillery can get to the phrase “reinventing the wheel.” Not bad, but I’m not sold on the results of the extra labor (or price).
Overall Rating: ★☆☆

Nikka Coffey Gin

Nikka Coffey Gin

It’s sophisticated, it’s doing something new, and it’s Japanese. But at easily twice the price of a “premium” gin, it doesn’t rise to the high standards it sets for itself.

NOY 10 Armenian Brandy

NOY 10 Armenian Brandy

Another Armenian brandy today. Buckle up for a coke-versus-pepsi comparison I think is rather apt!
Overall Rating: ★☆☆

Boodles Gin

Boodles Gin

A proper British gin that might be one of my favorites for a Martini. Just don’t get your nose too far into the glass.
