- Burn
- Burn is ranked on a scale of 1 to 10. I usually say, “0 is the burn you would associate with a glass of water, and 10 is shooting fireball or hot damn.”
- Score
- Score is ranked on a scale of 1 to 10, 1 being the worst ever and 10 being the best you’ve ever had. In general, a 5 is a decent score and is considered the exact average whiskey.
- Club Average Value
- This is what the taster thinks the whiskey is worth in dollars. Basically, if you were a store owner, what do you think it would be fair to charge for this bottle? In general, we operate on the assumption of a 750 Ml bottle.
- Tasting
- We taste some whiskeys multiple times to see if our opinions change. This is the number of times we’ve tasted when the scores in the given row were taken.
- Year
- This is the year we tasted the whiskey.
