La Muse Verte

Smoother than the best

I've tasted the gold brand, thats what is supposed to be considered the "best of the best" (more like overly expensive swill...)
And I really have to say,.. this is so much better. I've bought 2 bottles so far from this site, one some time ago, and another very recently. What really sold me on the great quality, was the first impression. The bottle is painted (covered up). Absinthe gets stagnate if left in natural lights too much, too long. The blackened bottle protects it from that. The second impression, the smell of it, was pretty nice, almost a floral/herbal scent, and the smell of the anise is pretty gentle. The taste, can be bracing, but it goes down easy when poored and prepared nicely.
It's easy to see why this bottle/brand is award winning, I definitely recommend this to anyone who may be interested.

Hennessy VSOP Privilege Cognac (375mL)

This is why the hip-hop folks like this so mucn

A really lush nose, almost raisiny. Smooth and luscious on the palate with a hint of fruit even to a hint of sweetness and very little alcohol to interfere. Perfect as a reward or a celebration. Wonderful after a really good meal. The bottle was smaller than I expected but that was my fault for not paying attention. Correct bottle size is clearly listed on website. My fault doesn’t make it easier to look at how much is in the glass and how much is left in the bottle and not wish I had a better paying job.

Baileys Vanilla Mint Shake Irish Cream Liqueur

It was exactly like the label says a mint shake! Had it over ice as dessert, so smooth and delicious.

Sugarlands Appalachian Sippin' Cream Butter Pecan Cream Liqueur

Delicious, smooth, creamy, I would highly recommend this!

Sugarlands Appalachian Sippin' Cream Electric Orange Cream Liqueur

Can't beat the extraordinary taste!

I'm hooked on the smooth, creamy, orange cream cycle taste! It's totally awesome!

Rosaluna Mezcal Joven

The Less Smoky Mezcal!

Rosaluna is a citrus forward, sweeter, and less smoky mezcal. Because it is lighter and brighter than most mezcal brands, it pairs perfectly well in citrus forward shaken cocktails: Margarita, Paloma, and even Espresso Martinis. Amazing quality mezcal for such a great value. I personally just love Rosaluna neat, on the rocks, or straight up in a shaken martini with an orange twist.

Hercules Mulligan Eyr & Rye

It’s true what they say: this one tastes like a cocktail right out of the bottle. We enjoyed it far more than we expected to. It’s definitely on our “buy this again” list. The blend is spot on. The hint of cherry bitters is discernible but not overwhelming. Next time I am going to steep a few maraschino cherries in mine but my partner says it’s perfect just the way it is.

Sugarlands Appalachian Sippin' Cream Electric Orange Cream Liqueur

The taste of this electric orange taste just like the orange cream cycles that I used to eat as a kid. It's absolutely delicious!

Paquera Espadin Mezcal Artesanal

Fresh agave, medium smoke

I am a fan. Tasty and great for cocktails.

Buffalo Trace Bourbon Cream Liqueur

QCHotSpur 1/15/24

If you like Baileys try this I promise you won’t be disappointed.

Chartreuse Green Liqueur

A must have bottle for any bar!

The Chartreuse Green Liqueur is one of those must haves for any bar especially if you like to make and share vintage cocktail recipes. The price of the bottle I purchased was reasonable but with the Monks focusing on other Monkey business their failure to make this stuff means it will disappear forever. I’m quite sure other distilleries will produce alternatives. I recommend every enthusiast acquire a bottle and enjoy it while you can.

Buffalo Trace Bourbon Cream Liqueur

This has a rich deeper flavor than any Irish Cream I have tried. It's delicous.

Roots Mastic Liqueur

I’m enjoying spirits from the Mediterranean. The next best thing to be there.

Roots Mastic Diktamo Wild Herbs Liqueur

The Virginian 1/6/24

A relaxed, licorice flavor, I enjoy Diktamo Wild Herbs with everything from pie to pork butt. The taste is distinctive but not overly sweet. It clears the palate without killing the taste buds. And, I do enjoy tasting an herb recommended by Hippocrates, Aristotle, and Theophrastus.

Traditional and Medicinal

This is a proper old world drink back when alcohol was mainly used for medicinal purposes. I think this is a very interesting drink.

Montelobos Espadín Mezcal

I don't drink often, so when I do, I want something that's a real pleasure. Since I like smoky scotches, I took note when I ran across this mezcal on a recent trip to Mexico. Upon returning to the states, I ordered a bottle, and I haven't been disappointed! The folks I've shared it with have been likewise impressed. It's smooth, with a more subdued smoky flavor than the Islay-style scotches I've tried, and is just wonderful.

Highly recommended!

Delord 25 Year Old Bas Armagnac

Wonderful!! Full of dates, toffee and cinnamon, but with some bite. Stop drinking what the talking heads tell you to drink and try this. You'll be glad you did.

Solerno Blood Orange Liqueur

Such a unique flavor. We generally add a splash to our Margaritas.

Skinos Mastiha Spirit

Mastiha - Pleasant on its own but strong enough to complement a meal. Awakens long forgotten memories.

Ezra Brooks Bourbon Cream Liqueur

Cheers to the Holidays

I love this stuff. Goes well with coffee hot or cold and is very good over ice too. Have even tried on ice cream and making a milk shake. Perfect!!

Mylene B 11/24/23

Smell is nice and bright. Makes you want to come back for more and more. Absolutely love it!

Paquera Espadin Mezcal Artesanal

This mezcal deserves a 5 star

Overall a great mescal and a buy recommendation like all 5S so far!

Paquera Espadin & Barril Mezcal Artesanal

Over priced for the quality

Mine is now a shelf ornament, nobody will drink it at my parties

Paquera Espadin Mezcal Artesanal

Price is fair but you get what you pay for

Save yourself 15$ and buy the same quality cheaper stuff

Paquera Espadin & Barril Mezcal Artesanal

Got this to make cocktails for a big get together and everyone loved!

Paquera Espadin Mezcal Artesanal

Perfect for cocktails

Got this to make cocktails while hosting some friends and it was a huge hit

Paquera Espadin Mezcal Artesanal

The Paquera Barril is smokey while keeping that floral note going strong throughout. It's the smooth, buttery, and full-bodied

Paquera Barril Mezcal Artesanal

This is one of my favorite mezcals. I got in 3 bottles of this in for my bar at home. It is worth the dollars you pay for it.

Paquera Espadin Mezcal Artesanal

Espadin can be mixed in cocktails and can be sipped on.

Paquera Espadin & Barril Mezcal Artesanal

Smooth and smoky tasting mezcal.

This is such a smooth sipping cocktail. Ordered it a couple of times and I will continue to order this. Yum!!

Paquera Espadin Mezcal Artesanal

Great smooth tasting mezcal! Will surely purchase again soon for the holidays.

Paquera Espadin & Barril Mezcal Artesanal

I had an issue with the espadin so decided to try the blend. All the bottles are sour and don’t resemble true mezcal flavor +the migraine headache. Tasted like they put liquid smoke or some artificial flavor. Shouldn’t there be a testing qualification for mezcal to protect the consumer

Paquera Espadin Mezcal Artesanal

Fabulous. Great product.

Great product. I loved the experience!

Paquera Espadin Mezcal Artesanal

Big fan of Paquera Mezcal!

Paquera Espadin Mezcal Artesanal

Love this mezcal brand! Highly recommended

Koval Cranberry Gin Liqueur

Nice & Smooth 10/3/23

I was turned on to this drink by a friend...and I have been enjoying it ever since. Is very rich, smooth, & bursting with flavor. A little goes a long way.

Paquera Espadin Mezcal Artesanal

I had tried this brand before but I got a bad bottle perhaps. The flavor was similar to vinegar

Sugarlands Appalachian Sippin' Cream Dark Chocolate Coffee Cream Liqueur

Picked this up on a whim and ended up buying a case to keep on hand! It has such a perfect flavor and is terrific frozen by the pool

Dos Hombres Espadin Mezcal

Holy not-smokey mezcal, Batman! This one is clean and fresh, I guess you could say; but not at all complex and without a hint of smoke. Wanted to like it but not impressed. So many other great mezcals on the market that no one needs to settle for just good.

El Buho Mezcal

smooth but not complex

If you are looking for smooth, this will do it. But it's not particularly complex or smoky.

Madre Mezcal Ensamble

Nothing subtle about the smokiness!!!

Holy $&#@.....the smokiness is overpowering even when mixing with another tequila! It's like biting into a soggy charred log fresh off the campfire......really disappointing

Chartreuse Green Liqueur

While I’ve enjoyed Chartreuse Green for over 40 years $186.99 a bottle before shipping is way too expensive

Italicus Rosolio Di Bergamotto Liqueur

Great flavor on its own or as a mixer. Will definitely be keeping stock of this on hand!

Sugarlands Appalachian Sippin' Cream Banana Pudding Cream Liqueur

Just like swallowing banana pudding

Sipping this is true to the tasting notes. By far my favorite of the Sugarlands sipping cremes. Feels like velvet on the lips, smells like bananas, goes down smooth with just a hint of that alcohol bite at the end. I highly recommend this one.

Chartreuse Green Liqueur

This is a must have in my bar at home. We are big fans of the Last Word and Final Ward. Green Chartreuse plays a part in both of the drinks and there is no substitute. I do not like the fact that what was already a pricey liqueur has become even more costly. I have enough now to wait for prices to hopefully come back to the reasonable realm they were at before the shortage. That being said, if you like gin and bourbon, then you have to try these drinks. If you like them, you will realize how critical this liqueur is to your cocktail experience.

Shanky's Whip

Stuff is great when you make it cold and serve it on ice very nice smell and flavor

Legendre Herbsaint 100 Proof Liqueur

Excellent Value for the Price

This 100-proof anise-flavored liqueur is a great value for the price! It packs a punch, and on Caskers was cheaper than the 80-proof version. Well worth it for a fantastic expression of a classic anisette.
