Dandy Liquor 2019 Elijah Craig Store Pick Review
Well I went from trying zero Elijah Craig store picks to two in a couple weeks and I'm starting to not hate it. My wife even said last night, "YOU TOLD ME YOU DON'T LIKE ELIJAH CRAIG" when I was asked what I thought about the bottle our lovely hosts just shared with me. Thanks, wife. Anyway I'm starting to like it more.
This is my first pick from Dandy Liquor who I happened to meet at said get together and Mr. Jai could not have been nicer. If you get a chance to visit his store please do - great people who are kicking the American Dream's ass. Something that I hate doing is writing reviews of picks that my friends did - this one is no exception. So here we go, doods!
In da nose I got a HEAVY dose of mint followed by some chocolate and honey swirled together like a flushing toilet. The nose was brilliant - one of those whiskies that you realize you haven't even drank it yet because you keep sticking your beak in the glass. In da mouf I got toasted marshmallow and cocoa followed by a heavy cornholio finish. The nose brought this ranking way up but the taste was average so I can't go full on BEST EVUH just yet.
I have been pleasantly surprised by these EC picks lately and that's great because when I get surprised my sperm count goes WAY UP and I make way more money at the bank that way. Anyway go try this if you get the chance!
