There is a lot to like about Stillhouse Peanut Butter S’Mores Whiskey on paper. At 34.5% ABV) and $19.99, let us see if it lives up to expectations.
Nose
Sugary marshmallows overpower the nose, but milk chocolate and peanut butter do make an appearance underneath. Smells a lot like one of those small candy shops you find on a coastline or carnival.
Palate
Sugar coats the tongue throughout the experience. Notes of gently roasted coffee beans turn into dark chocolate and what can only be unimaginatively described as honey graham cracker. The peanut butter only shows up on the finish.
Finish
This whiskey is not very good, but it doesnt need to be. Want something to take shots of at a party? You found it. Want to pour something sweet and alcoholic in your hot chocolate on a camping trip? You betcha. Want to drink it in any other setting for any other purpose? Look elsewhere.
The Bottom Line
Stillhouse Peanut Butter S’Mores Whiskey did not quite work for me. At $19.99, I would steer you toward other bottles that offer more for your money in this category.
