  • Better than it sounds, but still a dry, alum-y mouthfeel. The ingredients are too disparate to come together. Worth trying once, or once in a great while. — ★★★

Comments

Very drinkable, but I just used Maker's Mark instead of scotch (I found it ended up being great if you don't like the taste of whisky, but want to make a drink with it anyway).
