Everclear 190 Proof (1.75L)

Linda 3/2/23

The Tincture Standard

I'm a certified clinical herbalist, making my own tinctures from grown and gathered herbs. But I live in a state where 190 Everclear is not sold. Caskers to the rescue! My purchase was easy and convenient, the price was reasonable, and I can make tinctures again!

Ezra Brooks Bourbon Cream Liqueur

Just Joan 2/24/23

I love this stuff! I use it in my coffee and drinking straight.
Great smooth flavor and a nice balance of bourbon to cream. I order 4 at a time!!

Hana Flavored Lychee Sake

VERY surprised how unique and floral it tastes!

light floral taste PERFECT in a martini!

El Silencio Espadin Mezcal

This is my go-to mezcal: clean but tasty, balanced flavors, fine enough for sipping and smoky enough to hold up in mixers. Absolutely can't be be beaten at its price point.

Koval Cranberry Gin Liqueur

This is such a good spirit. We mixed it with clear soda and it was such a hit at our holiday party. I buy two bottles at a time so I don’t run out!

Lucid Absinthe Supérieure

I absolutely LOVE absinthe, so I set out to try as many as I could find, which has generally been a frustrating challenge. I had high hopes for this one, based on reviews (on other sites) and the elevated price. But price doesn’t always equate to preference, and I’m disappointed. I can’t criticize the overall quality of the product, because it has a “sophisticated” flavor. It’s just not a flavor that suits my palate. What I taste is less anise than most absinthes, and more of a cognac kind of flavor additive. Not my cup of tea at all. So I did what I often do, even with some preferable absinthes. . . . I added Dr McGillicuddy’s Root Beer Schnapps. And for those of you who like both licorice flavor AND root beer flavor, it is the best flavor combination ever! Still my go-to drink for greatest tasting cocktail ever! But with Lucid absinthe, it only “salvaged” the drink. Again, Lucid somehow seems very sophisticated, and I’m guessing that many will prefer this flavor profile, but for me, I’ll probably stick with Pernod and (Van Gogh) Absente, and maybe a few others.

Ararat 5 Year Old Armenian Brandy

CHRISTIAN 12/17/22

This Brandy is the best I've ever tasted. Better than the more popularly known brands and the 5 year is best in my opinion. Simple straight up and just a pleasure. For the price, quality, and craftsmanship you cannot beat it. I just hope CASKERS continues to stock it.

Batch 22 Classic Gold New American Aquavit

Unique, Versatile, Complex New Spirit

A modern American on a classic European style Aquavit, this herbal and aromatic spirit is unlike anything else I've had on the market here. It has a lovely subtle viscosity in the mouthfeel, making it totally sippable on its own without being thick or cloying, and the complex blend of herbs, bitter citrus, spicy aromatics make for a great cocktail component. Imagine substituting this for vodka or gin when you want to add greater depth and interesting layers. It's unique, versatile, and surprising. Easier to drink than describe!

Batch 22 Classic Gold New American Aquavit

Bartender's Best Friend

As a beer and whiskey fan, I never thought my head would be turned by another spirit, let alone one calling itself the 'New American Aquavit.' But one taste of Batch 22 at a recent cocktail party and I'm absolutely hooked. Batch 22 made the best version of a Moscow Mule and Bloody Mary I've ever had. Indescribably delicious. I've just begun to experiment with everything else Batch makes better, but I have a feeling it'll be a bartender's best friend for years to come.

Batch 22 Classic Gold New American Aquavit

Batch 22 is wonderful straight or in a cocktail!

I'd never had aquavit before, until a friend served Batch 22 at a dinner party. It blew me away! From the moment I held the shot to my nose, I knew I was in for a treat! Citrusy! Mellow botanicals. A perfect aperitif AND after dinner drink. I picked up my own bottle the next day and tried some of the cocktails on their site. WOW! The Batch Dirty Martini managed to improve on one of my favorite drinks. The caraway and dill blended beautifully with the olive brine! Fantastic! And the Batch Lebowski was a huge hit after dinner, even for those that don't have a sweet tooth. A perfect dessert cocktail! The best thing was, all the flavors were complex, but subtle. Just delicious! I will certainly be serving it at my holiday party... and beyond! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Batch 22 Classic Gold New American Aquavit

Not Your Grandfather's Aquavit

I love mixing spirits with juices, etc. The bouquet of Batch 22 always has a fragrant finish. My fave is with a splash of Trader Joe's pineapple soda, and blood orange slice. It's not heavy like a whisky, but it's not wimpy, either. Even just having it "neat" is a nice complement to a charcuterie board. Bravo, guys!

Batch 22 Classic Gold New American Aquavit

My new favorite libation!

It takes a lot to get my attention, and somehow Batch 22 managed to do that in the most delicious way! A friend recommended I try it in a martini and it was even tastier than my regular vodka version. I've also had Batch 22 on the rocks, and the smoothness of this sassy spirit is striking.

I'm sorry; I can't resist alliteration when the opportunity presents itself...

P.S. Guess what I'm serving during cocktail hour at all our holiday dinners?

Everclear 190 Proof

A good, clean product for herbal tinctures

I use this exclusively for extractions of medicinal herbs. A very clean and fast acting extracting agent,that produces superior results.

Batch 22 Classic Gold New American Aquavit

Unique, Smooth, and Simply Delicious

Batch 22 is my favorite new spirit! From the first time I smelled it, I knew it was something different and special. Then the taste confirmed that it was like nothing I’d ever had before, and I loved it. I thought I’d missed out on Aquavit, but upon comparing and tasting a top brand I realized that, no, Batch 22 is even unique in its own category, and far superior. To my surprise, I actually like it straight, over ice. It’s also delightful with orange juice, or cherry juice, or even as the primary spirit in a Bloody Mary or Margarita! Do yourself a favor and try this - it will quickly become one of your favorites, too!

Batch 22 Classic Gold New American Aquavit

Michelle 11/20/22

A distinctive and versatile spirit that’s great to sip and equally great in a variety of cocktails.

We received a bottle as a gift and it has quickly become a go to for all manner of cocktails. It makes a unique martini and is great sipped straight. It’s also fun introducing people to a spirit that they’ve never tried before. It will be a staple in our household going forward. Never had anything quite like it - subtle herbal notes, complex and just delicious.

Delord 25 Year Old Bas Armagnac

A really exceptional value for the quality of experience

In large part, this will echo the review Steve-O posted. I'll extend his comparison to bourbon to include fine Scotch and Irish whisky as well. Some of my favorites are becoming difficult if not impossible to find lately - looking at YOU Springbank and Knappogue! This situation left me wandering around the liquor store today looking for a suitable substitute, and this 25-year-old Armagnac caught my eye. An employee of the store noticed me fondling the bottle and said that he felt it was one of the best brandies they had to offer regardless of price. I decided to take a chance on it, and I am NOT disappointed! For a 40% abv spirit, this has a tremendous range of woody, fruity, aromatic flavors and aromas to offer, and it only gets better with time in the glass. For the $70.00 I paid for it, this is one of the best bargains I've found in a long, long time. Because of this Armagnac, in the future I may be spending less time browsing the Scotch aisle. It really feels like making an adjustment and finding there's little if any compromise.

Rosaluna Mezcal Joven

complexity meets refinement

Great Mezcal complex refine smooth on the palate. If you enjoy Mezcal you'll love this!!

Rémy Martin Louis XIII Magnum Cognac

Biggest waste of money

Bisquit & Dubouché X.O. Cognac

Unbelievably tasty. One of the best sippers out there. Huge aromas, great flavors and an amazing finish. It’s what I give my Pappy loving friends when they scoff at cognac

Madre Mezcal Ensamble

More than just 'smoky tequila'...ha! Madre does a great job of highlighting the different notes in the agave, providing a much more complex sip than other juice at this price!!

Bisquit & Dubouché V.S.O.P. Cognac

Thank you Caskers! Bisquit isn’t sold in NJ and I was introduced to it on a business trip abroad. Great Cognac with rich fruity flavors and a smooth finish! A great sipping cognac on the rocks. It pairs well with a mild cigar in my opinion. Enjoy!

Rosaluna Mezcal Joven

Great Bottle of Mezcal

I really loved this bottle of mezcal. It’s surprising that it’s even mezcal because although present, the smokiness isn’t very strong. Rather this is a very smooth drink. I’ll be adding this to my steady rotation.

La Fée Absinthe Parisienne

So far, my favorite absinthe

I'm a very light drinker but have wanted to try absinthe for awhile. Ended up buying some from Cheklosovakia and somewhat dissapointed, as the louche effect of adding water was not working, and was one of the main feature's I was looking for. After reading reviews decided to to give the French made La Fee a try. Caskers processed the order quickly with great communication and updates. Had concerns as earlier reviews had said La Fee used artificial colorings, but was happy when the bottle arrived and proclaimed that it was all natural. My first glass demonstrated a huge difference between this and previous absinthes I tried. The louche was opaque and somewhat iridescent. The bouquet was subdued and not very noticeable. The taste was mellow, balanced and pleasant. It was nice and I would not hesitate to purchase again, but really want to try other brands just for comparison.

Belvedere Heritage 176 (1L)

Another fine belvedere product

I have been drinking belvedere for many years. I couldn't wait to finally try this, and I wasn't disappointed. It is full flavor. You get the rye right from the start but finished smooth. Its a very good mixing vodka, I'm using cranberry right now and it's delicious.

Corte Vetusto Mezcal Ensamble II

Award-winning for good reason

Espadin, Tobala and Madrecuishe combine really nicely in this Ensamble, with the madrecuishe giving that savory herb and woody note you get from some of them. The clay distillation definitely brings some earthiness, but not overpowering. I love sipping this mezcal as I find something new each time I go back to it. A special occasion mezcal.

Corte Vetusto Mezcal Espadin

Wow. If you think Espadin isn't for you, try this. This is an Espadin for sipping or using in good quality cocktails. Roasted agave, creme brulee and mesquite smoke on the nose. The taste is balanced and complex, with savory herbs (rosemary?), smoked meatiness and minerality & a long, rewarding finish.

Corte Vetusto Mezcal Tobala

Mezcallover 3/9/22

Truly unique & complex

This Tobala is distilled in copper and clay pot giving it a really unique nose and flavor profile. I find the nose to have a perfumed floral aspect with tropical fruits with a hint of leather and earth. The taste is rounded and has a hint of earthiness and mineral aspects. Delightful

Corte Vetusto Mezcal Ensamble II

Clearly I love this range of mezcal, the Ensamble brought me something very different on flavor profile. Vegetal notes, with earthy tones, just explodes in ones mouth, woulf be great with food.

Corte Vetusto Mezcal Tobala

I love Tobala mezcal and this is one of the best. A great mouthfeel, long lingering smoke. I also get great earthy tones and 'minerality' from the copper/clay distillation.

Corte Vetusto Mezcal Espadin

Great flavor profile, agave forward, with a nice lingering smoke.

Rosaluna Mezcal Joven

Great Mezcal Which Will Not Disappoint

I'm not a huge drinker so when I do drink I like it to be something I'm really going to enjoy. Rosaluna has quickly become one of if not my favorite drinks. Best of all the price is amazing for this Mezcal. Highly recommended.

Jägermeister Manifest

If you like jaegermeister, this at a higher level, in taste and finish. Try it, you won't regret it

Hennessy Pure White Cognac

RickDaddy 2/21/22

Smooth taste definitely better than regular Hennessy. However definitely priced out of it's taste due to not being sold in the US.

Paquera Espadin Mezcal Artesanal

I don't usually write reviews but this time I had to. A really nice Espadin for the price. Definitely recommended!

Hennessy Pure White Cognac

This is one of the most flavorful, smooth finishing lower shelf cognacs. My experience with it came from going on cruise and buying three bottles just because of what I had heard about it. The steep price is because it’s not available in the US. This same bottle sells for about $45 in the Caribbean, where it is very worth that price.

Hennessy Pure White Cognac

Privilege is just as smooth.

Very overrated cognac in my opinion. Not worth the price for less than a fifth of cognac.

Sugarlands Appalachian Sippin' Cream Butter Pecan Cream Liqueur

Love this sipping creme. Smooth and awesome taste. Having a problem finding it locally. Would love to keep a few jars on hand.

El Buho Mezcal

Hardabesht 1/8/22

I’ve been drinking Mezcal for about a year now, El Buho is smooth, you can sip or mix with any citrus of choice.
I’d buy again

Rosaluna Mezcal Joven

Been on the Rosaluna bandwagon for a couple of years now. It’s a keeper to use in all kinds of awesome cocktails. Use lime, and sweet pepper flavors to enhance this killer mezcal. You honestly can’t go wrong with Rosaluna.

Peloton de la Muerte Pechuga Mezcal

Very mild smokiness up front with a very pleasant aftertaste. Citrus notes on the nose and up front. Great for sipping.

Rosaluna Mezcal Joven

Rosaluna Mezcal is my go to

Very smooth Mezcal. Not hot, not overpowering. Just the right everything. Just enough to make you keep wanting more. Love ordering through you guys. Thank You so much.

Rosaluna Mezcal Joven

Rosaluna is Absolutely the Best Mezcal

This is really for me the top bottle of mezcal. Hands down the best. I always have one on my shelf and it is my first and only recommendation for friends looking to discover the mezcal category. No other brand is as consistent, delicious or reasonably priced as Rosaluna.

Mitchell 11/17/21

Rosalina is Top of the Line Mezcal

This is really a smooth mezcal that has a nice aroma, rich taste, and a smoky finish. It can be enjoyed neat or it can be mixed with flavorful juices. This Mezcal really is Top of The Line.

Rosaluna Mezcal Joven

The Only Alcohol I Drink

I was first introduced to Rosaluna by an old friend of mine. In the past I was pretty much just a rum drinker but boy did she change that. We got together one day and she had it at her house and it was the only thing she had. So I tried it and it just caught me off guard off guard. Ever since then Rosaluna is pretty much the only alcohol I drink. I now always have a couple bottles stashed away. That's actually what I'm doing here. Time to stock up and you guys are the best. I've never had any type of issue with you guys. Thank You so much. I really appreciate you.

Rémy Martin 1738 Accord Royal Cognac

Warm feelings of 1st time bliss...

Wow! GF Scotch is normally my go to drink of preference!
This is my first time trying any brandy or cognac, and I'm kind of in love! This was smooth, mellow, & full bodied. No back of the throat burn going on. I must admit it's a bit pricey, so I will reserve purchasing this for special occasions only. I'll leave you with a helpful hint, this Brandy/cognac is really good mixed in a glass of good old-fashioned North Carolina sweet iced tea. Drink slowly and sip responsibly!!

Hennessy VS NBA Gift Box Limited Edition

Great product, poor packaging

I ordered this Limited Edition Hennessy VS NBA Gift Box and they bubble wrapped the actual limited edition box and was damaged. Other than that, I am satisfied with Hennessy

Headframe Spirits Orphan Girl Bourbon Cream Liqueur

Michelle 10/11/21

Discovered this at my sisters after she received this as a gift. Loved the Dirty Girl but this is good either over ice or in hot chocolate.

Corte Vetusto Mezcal Tobala

Not a sipper. Have had much better at this price. All taste buds are different.

ABV had a sticker on bottle that was a higher 44.5%! :( I’m sure it’s a quality mezcal, but I was expecting smoky and a long finish—neither. White dog heat, some interesting retro nasal and an abrupt finish. Lot# D418. Bottle 193/360
