Scotch is proving too expensive to buy on a regular basis, as well as taking up too much room in my kitchen. Last check we had 6 bottles of scotch from various tastings left over that we need to finish before we can bring in.
Which brings us to today's review - Ole Smoky Tennessee Moonshine
Price: 19.99, but on sale from 27.99, at Bevmo
Method: neat
Alcohol content: 50%
Color: clear
Nose: Not much, but you can smell the alcohol content
Taste: no
Finish: no
Notes: This was so bad that I gagged on the first swallow. My body immediately felt we were being poisoned. It tasted like if you had sucked on a corn pop for an hour, not much flavor but corn undertones. But there was nothing good about this. No after flavor, no nothing. There is not much merit to this compared to other things you can get today. I mean, I guess if you're an alcoholic with the shakes right after prohibition was enacted, and all you have is a can of creamed corn and a yeast infection, that you would have to make do. But there is just so much out there today. You don't have to settle for this.
I will be getting a flavored moonshine to see if it's just this I don't like but my hopes are not high.

Score: 30/100, only because it was better than that Dewar's honey monstrosity.
