While I enjoyed the uncle nearest, Can we get a bit longer videos going more in depth and a more standard tasting pace ? Most the video is filler outside of the actual tasting.
Taking notes and thank you for your feedback. We will make sure to improve with every day 🥃
I liked last years videos! Had good history and fun facts
Yes please!!! Longer videos.
Totally agree. I have enjoyed the whiskey selection in my box this year, but have been missing the educational aspect of the different spirits. Since Flaviar did a complete design of their website, all the wonderful educational content that I loved is now gone. Please bring back this content back.
One of our favorites!
best one so far
Getting better and better every day. Imagine how it will be on day #24 🥃😉
Uncle Nearest is best enjoyed with a few drops of water. This opens up the whiskey and overcomes the rawness of the 100 proof spirit. Quite nice.
Great tip! Make sure to check our video about Whiskey dilution and let us know what you think
Love the Bank Note. Just a light peatiness followed by good spice.
Short and sweet, keep them coming. See you back tomorrow!
That looks almost Amber. Thank you for these videos!! It’s been fun to-date. :). Happy Holidays!
Thank you so much for your lovely comment ❤️
See you back tomorrow 🥃
Just got home from work, and luv, love, LOVE this 'Uncle Dearest' whiskey! ♥ A nice end to a busy work day for sure.😁
And we LOVE your review. Thanks for sharing and see you back for #4 sample 🥃
Day three - Green, Bank Note Blended Scotch Whisky. This one comes on sbooth and coast. The tongue and a sweet ginger and then finishes in a toffee with a smokey coffee all the way through. Again, it's a little too late for me because i'm a die-hard bourbon lover. But even being a bourbon lover, this is good 8.5/10.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts in the comments! Keep them coming 🥃🥃
Uncle Nearest was great, you can taste the caramel and maple. Smooth for 50%>
Short and sweet, love your commentary. Keep them coming in the following days 🥃
This one is a surprise! Looking at the description I was doubtful. Sampled, tasted, considered and now it’s on my buy list. Very nice, and I’m still loving this!!
Glad you liked it. Keep the reviews coming in future days 🥃
Dark chocolate lingers almost after you'd think it finished. I taste sherry too. The oak perhaps?
Could be! Your taste and nose is very developed, keep them coming! See you again tomorrow 🥃
very tasy, has a tad bit of a bite but still smooth like this very much
Sometimes the bite makes it even better. Thank you for your comment 🥃
I agree with the brown sugar, caramel nose. The taste was very strong, but not offensive. Just like a good heavy whiskey should be. I did a bit of research on my own after the tasting. Very interesting history. Watch the film!
Thank you for the recommendation! Your tasting notes are on point. See you back tomorrow 🥃
This was on my to-try list and I've moved it over to my to-by list. Great mouth feel and body that could hold its own with steak and fries.
Amazing notes and we say do it! Pairing spirits with food is amazing idea 🥃
Uncle nearest was awesome. Knew I was going to like it from first sniff. Did not disappoint. Excited for day 4
We are too! Thanks for sharing your experience and see you back on Day #4 🥃
I would like to taste that one but my day 3 was empty. 😢
Uncle Nearest was another good one for me. Nice flavor after a long day.
Thanks for sharing and happy holidays 🥃
Enjoyed Uncle Nearest, which has a nice heat on the tongue, if there’s a little bit of a burn. Picked up on the vanilla through line through all the smoke and almost tobacco flavor. Strong but smooth. Definitely could see the appeal of this. Wish more time was spent talking about Uncle Nearest as it’s a great story about the distillery. Very much missing the app that would give you an overall comparison of your choices.
Thank you for this amazing review and tasting notes. Love the details 🥃
Taking notes regarding app vs. just the tasting videos, will def. take in consideration for 2024. Cheers and happy holidays!
Not bad, I like the charred & nutmeg in this one
Us too! Can't wait to see what tomorrow brings. Make sure to let us know 🥃
Does anyone know what the difference is between the two boxes? I don’t remember having a choice between the two- I just got the black Amber Kingdom box.
Hi Jonah, the difference between the boxes is in juice line-up and the second box got only available after we sold out the first - black, Amber Kingdom box. We wanted to give more people a choice to join in on the fun 🥃
Black Day 3
N: Caramel, butterscotch, honey. Spiced apples
P: spiced candy nuts transitions to tangy grass
F: Tart caramel. Continues to get butter with time becoming very earthy and grassy
100% TN whiskey. Starts smooth and the aftertaste is way too harsh.
6/10
Amazing notes! Keep them coming 🥃
Not my fav, but nice finish on the bank note. Kinda tries to hit you in the face on the front end with everything, mellows quick
Day Three: Uncle Nearest- have to say, had a completely different nose and palate experience than Lui on this one! Did not pick up on any of the Caramel or Brown sugars. But, did get some of the hay, the nose was more of an overwhelming fresh cut grass, with some Granny Smith apples. Flavor continued with the grass/hay, also with hints of apples again. In addition, picked up on some clove/menthol like flavors? Maybe some mint? Couldn't really identify what the spice was, but it definitely becoming evident about midway through as a follow through on the aftertaste. Overall, this is my least favorite of the first three days, but it was still enjoyable. Not sure I would spend for an entire bottle, I think this is the only one so far whose price is a bit out of line. But, what I am really enjoying is the fact that all three of these first samples have been very different from each other! Loving the variety of profiles we've already seen.
Thank you for your honest and detailed review. We truly appreciate your involvement with the tastings. Keep them coming 🥃🥃
Why two calendars? Makes things confusing.
Hi there, after we sold out the first box expression we wanted to give more people the opportunity to enjoy advent and created another one with different juice line up. While we know it does complicate things a bit, we're happy to see more people joining in on the fun. Hope you still can have a great tasting experience 🥃
Too much filler content, and prob don't need the Flaviar Black ad on every single tasting video. Lui is doing a fine job thus far! And Uncle Nearest was delish.
Thank you for your insides. We try to improve every day and adapt as much as possible
Not a fan of the Uncle Nearest...a bit hot and too much oak and ash. The finish is also pretty short..not enjoyable at all. Here's to hoping tomorrow's sample is better. 4/10.
Thank you for your review. It helps us improve and understand our audience. See you back tomorrow 🥃
This commentary is very lame. Bring back the guy from prior years. This isn’t interesting at all.
Thank you for letting us know. Every comment and opinion matters and we're making notes to be better next year. Cheers and happy holidays 🥃
Our least favorite so far. Boozy nose, and hot on the tongue, both Pre amd post a bit of water. 5/10.
Thank you for sharing your experience. Make sure to come back tomorrow for day #4 🥃
