Jameson Irish Whiskey

Smells crisp and sweet, maybe a bit of apple or pear nose. The mouth feel is very smooth, maybe a bit thin, super drinkable, sweet, lots of cereal notes, maybe a tiny bit of cinnamon, a bit buttery on the end. Very pleasant. 9.3/10 Requested by @IKnapz

Hey, it's been a minute + Jägermeister notes

  Jägermeister Review     The nose is very nostalgic, there's a strong note in there that reminds me of good root beer.

I'm not really a great photo editor, nor did I want to spend too much time on it, but in real life, it looks a bit more like this. It really is vibrant.      It smells of the sweet demerara rum (I'm using Appleton Estate 12 Year Rare Cask) with a bit of the oak coming through as well, but there's also some florally grape notes from the lillet blanc. I've started freezing my citrus lately in order to preserve it for longer, and thawed citrus doesn't like to peel very well. But traditionally, this would have a swath of orange peel as well. The mouth feel is considerably more full than I was expecting. It looks rather thin imo, but it is actually pretty full. The first flavor I get is oranges, but those...
