    Tanteo Habanero Infused Tequila

  • Brilliant, crystal clear with a faint hint of straw. The nose is quite floral with subtle and sweet herbal and chili notes rising from the glass. The palate is quite different from the nose as it opens with a faint sweet note that soon gives way to an assertive chili burn that lingers for minutes. Medium-bodied with very intense chili heat that dominates the palate. Made with 100% Blue Agave Tequila and infused with fresh habanero peppers from the Yucatan. $39.99 – 3 Stars

  • Grand Traverse Distillery True North Chipotle Flavored Vodka

  • Appearance: Brilliant, crystal clear. Aromatics: Beautiful aromatics offering scents of lemon curd, dried black fruits, dried flowers, spicy rye bread, and subtle mineral notes. Flavor: The palate echoes the nose delivering the complex set of flavors on a silky, viscous palate that carries the vibrant and rich flavors like a fluffy cloud. Intensity & Texture: Medium-bodied and sure to destroy any ideas you may have about Vodka being a neutral spirit. 3 Stars

  • Cedar Ridge Wheat Whiskey

  • Brilliant, pale golden color. The aromatics are quite delicate offering scents of steeped grains, butterscotch, toffee, and subtle baked orchard fruits. The palate confirms the nose being a bit drier than expected with a grassy core and assertive notes of green tea emerging on the finish. Medium-bodied with bright grain and green notes that become astringent on the finish. $42 – 3 Stars

  • William Wolf Frisky Flavored Whisk(e)y

  • Brilliant bronze color. The nose is filled with the sweet scent of caramel, butterscotch, and cashew brittle with accents of brown sugar. The palate is in full agreement with the nose delivering a very sweet, caramel-forward core with flanking notes of toffee. Medium-bodied with sweet caramel and Liqueur proportions. $24.99 – 3 Stars

  • Toast Vodka with Coconut Water Flavored Vodka

  • Crystal Clear. The aromatics are quite subtle save an earthy, coconut husk scent with waves of mineral as well. The palate is equally subtle with a silky core and flanking notes of dry coconut and mineral with hot spirity notes rising on the finish being met by the earthy tones found on the nose. Medium-bodied with a silky, slightly chewy center and long lingering pepper and earth notes. $31 – 3 Stars

  • Jumbie Pineapple Splash Flavored Rum

  • See the Full BevX Featured Review

    Brilliant, crystal clear. The nose is filled with sweet tropical fruit featuring pineapple with mandarin orange and other tropical fruits as well. The palate is in full agreement with the nose with sweet tropical fruits at the core with soft notes of confectioners' sugar, tropical flowers, and hints of vanilla. Medium-bodied with sweet tropical fruits. $14.99 – 3 Stars

  • Crop Organic Spiced Pumpkin Flavored Vodka

  • Deep golden color with orange undertones and visible viscosity. The aromatics are unmistakably pumpkin with loads of traditional brown baking spices and a mild lactic, cream cheese like accent. The palate echoes the nose remaining as dry as the aromatics as well with a trailing note of cola. Full-bodied with rich flavors being drier and more vibrant than expected. $30 – 3 Stars

  • Blue Nectar Extra Blend Reposado, 100% Agave Tequila

  • Brilliant, crystal clear. The nose is filled with the scents of charred oak and baked agave with supporting notes of brown baking spices, black pepper, and burnt marshmallow. The palate is largely in agreement with the nose while the bitter and astringent wood notes that envelope the baked agave was more aggressive than anticipated. Medium to full-bodied with loads of spice and oak. $44.99 – 3 Stars

  • Blue Nectar Special Craft Reposado, 100% Agave Tequila

  • Brilliant, crystal clear. The nose is intruiging with brown baking spices, vanilla, and brown sugar taking the lead followed by scents of sweet agave and subtle oak notes. The palate is simpatico with the nose while being a good bit sweeter than even the nose suggests with Christmas spices filling the palate. Medium-bodied with loads of spice and a very sweet, fruity core. $49.99 – 3 Stars

  • Grand Marnier Titanium Flavored Cognac

  • Deep golden peach color with perfect clarity. The nose is filled with the scents of sweet, concentrated orange and tangerine with hints of baked peach, candied ginger, brown baking spices, and vanilla. Despite the rich fruit notes found in the aromatics this spirit is totally dry. On the palate the fruit notes are quite subtle with the spices taking center stage offering soft pepper notes with pithy citrus sensations. A full departure from the classic GM approach that seems to be built to be base of contemporary cocktails. Medium-bodied with bright fruit and spice notes. null$39.99 – 3 Stars
