Welcome back to our regular readers (all four of you), and welcome to our first time visitors to The Bottom Shelf with Russ!
Reviewing bottom shelf whiskey is not that difficult of a task but there are some problems I did not anticipate. I am finding that most of the whiskeys are about the same, and find new vocabulary to keep it fresh and not redundant while describing them is a challenge. It is amazing that what is produced in a Canadian still behind an outhouse and the results from an American bathtub still have Twilight Zone-esque eerie similarities. Is there a common denominator? What would it be?
Let's put that behind us for now, and explore G&W Five Star Whiskey.
