Try Angel's Envy Peated. I picked up a bottle at the distillery last month when we were there and the smoke is strong with that one. Too much for me.
Thanks for the recommendation, had not heard they had a peated, I’ll look for it. Liberty Pole Distillery is offering a peated rye I’m picking up next week.

Scotch drinker for 40 years, switched to bourbon 4 years ago. Wanted something with peat to have an occasional taste. This fits well for me, surprisingly sweet fruit and floral on the nose, then tropical fruit on the palate, then peat, wood, sweetness on the finish. This great if you want an occasional peated flavor note. Cheers !

Found this today, walked in the liquor store as the box was being opened.
This is excellent, oatmeal, brown sugar and maple on the nose, finish with chocolate cherries. - Cheers
A lot happening with this, rye, spice, get black pepper with a hint of root beer on the finish. I have to dig deeper into this but I do get a malty taste throughout most noticeable on the finish. Cheers

Just cracked it, the nose is so damn fine!!!!! Soft dark fruit, cherries, the finish is warm to hot, long with cinnamon, vanilla, and oak. Very enjoyable, on my second pour of it. Cheers !!
Thanks, Augusta is in my top 3 and it never disappoints.

Neither did I, first time I’ve seen an Old Ezra 7year SB.
This is a good one, wonderful fruit on the nose which lingers throughout the pour, finishes with oak and caramel along with some cinnamon. Medium heat and finish. Cheers
Picture won’t post.

Expert Ratings
Drinkhacker gave it 9/10 (A-), praising its “incredibly fruity” flavor profile featuring malted barley, stone fruit, and cocoa, though noting a “slightly thin” mouthfeel
Wine Enthusiast awarded 94 points, calling it “superb” with flavors of red fruit, spice, cocoa, allspice, and sarsaparilla
Breaking Bourbon highlighted bold spice and chocolate notes on both nose and palate, deeming it “unique … worth a try”
Their distillery is located in Holland Michigan, I enjoy it as it’s flavorful and a very easy drinker.

At 137.1 proof this drinks remarkably lower, the nose does not give off any ethanol and is flavorful with notes of Carmel, baking spice/sugar, banana and
Fruits. The palate is mostly brown sugar, the finish is hot for about 5 seconds but settles into a medium to long flavorful warm finish. This is a neck pour with with no water or ice, I’m looking forward to it opening up. Cheers.
