Tennessee, Canadian, Mexican, Corn, Wheat, Flavored & Other North American Whiskies Reviews

Bernheim Barrel Proof Kentucky Batch No. A225 Straight Wheat Whiskey
95 points

A silky, but ferocious overproof Wheated Whiskey, smooth coconut and caramel with toasty warm finish.
Few Chicago Smokeworks Cherrywood Smoked Malt Whiskey
94 points

Generously smoky without being over the top - if Armani made a bearskin rug - would make a stellar smoky Old Fashioned or a more savory take on a Whiskey Sour.
Pendleton Midnight Brandy Barrel-Finished Blended Canadian Whisky
93 points
$29
Warm and spicy with a lingering butterscotch, salted caramel, Ceylon tea finish.
Awards: 2025 Best Canadian Whisky
Knob Creek Bourbon X Rye Kentucky Blended Straight American Whiskey
93 points
$44.99
Peppery and punchy, this would be a fantastic base for Boulevardier, bold flavors that carry its over proof well.
93 points $44.99
Thresh & Winnow Millet Bottled In Bond Whiskey
92 points

A fun bottled in bond that will show off as well neat as it will in an Old Fashioned, it balances fruit, light smoke and spice.

Silky smooth Canadian for highballs and smooth sipping on the rocks, mild with light notes of biscuit, apples and clover honey.

Dark, bold flavors of warm from your oven whole grain black bread with notes of candied citrus, tea and white pepper.
