Welcome back to DadDimes on the Rocks! Today, we’re reviewing something truly unique and innovative: Little Book Chapter 1: The Infinite Bourbon. Created by Freddie Noe, eighth-generation Beam distiller, Little Book is known for its experimental blends, and The Infinite is where it all started. Let’s see if this ambitious concept lives up to its name.

The Concept

Little Book The Infinite is a blended bourbon whiskey that’s crafted to be truly unique. Freddie Noe combined multiple whiskeys—ranging from young, bright spirits to rich, mature bourbons—into one harmonious pour. The idea was to blend innovation with tradition, resulting in a dynamic, ever-evolving profile.

Key Details:

Bottle Presentation

The bottle is sleek and modern, with a handwritten-style label that emphasizes the small-batch, handcrafted nature of the whiskey. The golden amber liquid inside has a rich, glowing hue, hinting at the depth and complexity of this blend. The cork and wax seal give it that extra touch of refinement.

Tasting Notes

Nose

The aroma opens with a medley of caramel, toasted oak, and vanilla. Beneath that initial sweetness, you’ll find hints of rye spice, leather, and dark fruit—like cherry or plum—along with a light floral note. The high proof brings warmth to the nose, but it’s not overpowering.

Palate

The first sip is bold and intense, thanks to the high proof. Layers of flavor unfold, starting with caramel and honey sweetness, followed by spicy cinnamon, clove, and black pepper from the rye. The oak influence is prominent but not overly tannic, adding balance to the profile. Mid-palate, you’ll notice dark chocolate and toasted nuts, with a subtle hint of citrus zest. The blend of younger and older whiskeys creates a lively, dynamic experience.

Finish

The finish is long, warm, and satisfying. Spice and oak linger on the palate, with echoes of vanilla and dark fruit that gradually fade. Despite its proof, the finish remains surprisingly smooth, showcasing the craftsmanship behind the blend.

Overall Impression

Little Book The Infinite is a bold and ambitious whiskey that pushes boundaries. The high proof and complex flavor profile make it a pour for experienced whiskey drinkers who enjoy exploring the nuances of expertly blended spirits. It’s not a casual sipper—it demands attention and rewards you for taking the time to savor it.

This bourbon is best enjoyed neat for the full experience, though a splash of water or a large ice cube can help mellow the proof and open up more subtle flavors.

Conclusion

Little Book Chapter 1: The Infinite sets the tone for the series, combining innovation with tradition in a way that feels fresh and exciting. It’s a statement bottle, perfect for collectors or those looking to expand their palate with something truly unique. While the proof may scare off beginners, seasoned whiskey fans will find it an exceptional addition to their shelf.

That’s our review of Little Book The Infinite Bourbon. As always, sip responsibly and enjoy the adventure in every glass. Cheers!

Welcome back to DadDimes on the Rocks, where we explore the world of whiskies and bourbons to find what’s worth pouring into your glass. Today, we’re switching it up and heading to Ireland to review the popular Proper No. 12 Irish Whiskey. Created by MMA superstar Conor McGregor, this whiskey has generated a lot of buzz since its launch. Let’s see if it lives up to the hype.

Bottle Presentation

Proper No. 12 comes in a sleek, dark green bottle that feels solid and well-crafted. The label features an Irish lion emblem, and the overall look conveys a modern yet classic Irish whiskey vibe. It’s a simple but attractive bottle that’s easy to spot on the shelf, with "Distilled, Matured & Bottled in Ireland" proudly displayed.

Taste

On the nose, Proper No. 12 is approachable and light, with immediate notes of vanilla, honey, and hints of green apple. There’s also a slight touch of grain and malt in the background, along with a faint whiff of oak, giving it a classic Irish whiskey profile that feels familiar and inviting.

Taking a sip, you’ll notice that this whiskey is smooth and easy to drink, characteristic of Irish blends. The flavor profile begins with sweet notes of vanilla and caramel, followed by subtle hints of spice and oak from the barrels. There’s also a light fruitiness—like pear or apple—that adds a refreshing layer. The grain influence gives it a bit of a cereal-like quality, and while it’s not overly complex, it’s certainly enjoyable and balanced for a casual pour.

The finish is medium-length, soft, and slightly warm, with lingering vanilla and a touch of toasted wood. It doesn’t have a strong burn, making it easy to sip neat or over ice.

Overall Impression

Proper No. 12 Irish Whiskey delivers exactly what you’d expect from an approachable Irish whiskey: it’s smooth, light, and easy to drink. It’s not overly complex, but that’s part of its charm—this is a whiskey for casual sipping or mixing in cocktails, not necessarily something to break out for a whiskey-tasting event. Its sweetness and mild flavors make it an excellent entry point for those new to whiskey or for those who enjoy an uncomplicated, everyday pour.

For fans of Conor McGregor, Proper No. 12 offers a connection to his Irish roots, and for whiskey fans, it provides a decent, reasonably priced bottle for casual occasions.

Conclusion

In summary, Proper No. 12 Irish Whiskey is a smooth, straightforward Irish blend that’s perfect for casual sipping or mixing in cocktails.

Welcome back to DadDimes on the Rocks, where we bring you the latest reviews on some of the most exciting bourbons in the game. Today, we’re diving into a limited edition that bourbon enthusiasts always look forward to: Blood Oath Pact 10 Bourbon Whiskey. Part of the ongoing Blood Oath series, Pact 10 has a lot to live up to. Let’s see what this expression brings to the table.

Bottle Presentation

Blood Oath Pact 10 comes in the brand’s signature rectangular bottle, adorned with a label that looks as if it was pulled straight from an ancient manuscript. The deep amber liquid inside adds to the allure, and the wooden top gives it a premium, artisanal feel. As with every release in the Blood Oath series, Pact 10 feels special right from the moment you set your eyes on the bottle.

The Blend and Aging

What makes Pact 10 interesting is its unique blend of bourbons. It’s a combination of three different bourbons, ranging from 8 to 12 years old. One key aspect is that part of the blend is finished in sherry casks, which imparts additional complexity and richness to the final product. That sherry cask finish is designed to bring a layer of fruity sweetness that plays well with the bourbon's oak and spice elements.

Taste

On the nose, Blood Oath Pact 10 greets you with rich, inviting aromas of dark fruit, caramel, and vanilla. The influence of the sherry casks is immediately noticeable, giving off hints of dried raisins, figs, and subtle red berries. There’s also a layer of spice—think cinnamon and clove—alongside oak and a bit of toasted sugar.

Taking your first sip, you’ll immediately notice the depth of flavor. The entry is smooth, with sweet notes of caramel, honey, and butterscotch, quickly followed by dark fruit flavors from the sherry finish—plums, cherries, and even a hint of orange zest. The oak influence adds a sturdy backbone, with layers of toasted wood and a nice balance of spice. The mouthfeel is rich and velvety, coating your palate with warmth. As it develops, you’ll pick up more complex flavors, like dark chocolate, tobacco, and a little leather.

The finish is long and satisfying, with lingering notes of dried fruit, oak, and a touch of spice, leaving a slight sweetness behind. That sherry cask finish really ties the flavors together, making this bourbon both rich and refined.

Overall Impression

Blood Oath Pact 10 Bourbon delivers a well-rounded and sophisticated experience. The blend of different bourbons, combined with the sherry cask finish, adds layers of complexity that you don’t find in just any bourbon. It’s a bourbon that reveals more with each sip, making it perfect for slow sipping and contemplation.

This is the kind of bourbon you’d break out for a special occasion. Its limited-edition nature and the craftsmanship behind it make it a sought-after bottle. Whether you’re a fan of previous Blood Oath releases or this is your first, Pact 10 stands out as one of the most interesting and flavorful expressions in the series.

Conclusion

In summary, Blood Oath Pact 10 Bourbon Whiskey is a bourbon that deserves its spot in any serious collection. Its blend of bold flavors, balance of sweetness and spice, and that beautiful sherry finish make it a unique and memorable pour. If you come across a bottle, don’t hesitate—it’s worth every drop.

That’s our review of Blood Oath Pact 10. As always, drink responsibly and savor every sip. Cheers!
