Few Spirits delivers exactly what you expect from a young bourbon in Evanston. The nose is pleasant, with plenty of spice and caramel notes, but the high alcohol content is definitely present. While it doesn’t taste harsh, it leaves a noticeable burn at the back of your tongue that lingers even without water. If you want to tame that edge and open up the flavors, I suggest adding a splash of water to your glass.

Few Spirits in Evanston definitely has a unique character. This bottle carries a distinct piney aroma that makes it feel more like gin than a traditional bourbon. It’s not bad, but if you are looking for classic bourbon notes, this might not be exactly what you expect.

Few Spirits in Evanston has crafted something truly special here. This isn't your standard botanical-heavy gin; it pours with a smoothness and sweetness that feels much closer to a premium tequila, highlighting notes of sweet corn rather than intense juniper. It’s a fantastic choice if you want to add a unique, modern twist to your classic gin and tonic or any mixed drink. If you appreciate high-quality distilling, this is definitely worth a try.

There is a sharp, unpleasant bitterness to this spirit that throws the balance off. It feels like a missed opportunity; a longer maturation in the barrel might have smoothed out those harsh edges and better integrated its complex flavor profile. Unfortunately, the astringency dominates the experience. I have to dock the score to 2.5 stars simply because of the premium price point, which makes the flaws harder to overlook.

Few Spirits has really nailed it with this bourbon. It’s incredibly smooth and goes down effortlessly, making it a delight whether you enjoy it straight or mixed. If you’re looking for a reliable bottle that delivers quality every time, this is definitely the one to try.

As someone still searching for their perfect bourbon, Few Spirits’ bottle wasn’t quite the winner for me. I can see why others enjoy it, but the spice profile leans heavily into clove and cardamom, which just isn’t my preference. It’s certainly not a bad spirit—it’s smooth with a distinct, bold kick—but it’s a solid 6/10 for me because it doesn’t hit my personal note. If you have a taste for those specific warm spices, you’ll likely love it. Respect to the Evanston distillery for putting out a bold, complex whiskey at that price point, even if this particular expression isn’t for my palate.

I was really looking forward to trying this from Few Spirits in Evanston, given how much I usually love their red label, but I’m extremely disappointed. The aroma is dominated by a strong wood stain scent—literally smells like the finish on my TV unit. That woody taste lingers on the palate and even carries over to the finish, turning into a fruity version of wood stain. I found almost zero smokiness; if you are looking for that character, you are better off with an Islay. Truly awful whiskey for me.

If you are looking for the classic juniper and citrus notes that define most gins, skip Few Spirits in Evanston. Their gin leans heavily into an unaged bourbon character, giving it a corn-forward taste that feels much more like tequila or mezcal than gin. I’m not a huge fan of that spirit profile, so this didn’t work for me at all. I won’t be buying another bottle.

Few Spirits in Evanston really knows how to pack a punch with their spirits. This bottling is incredibly viscous and clings to the glass. The nose opens with rich buttery vanilla, gingerbread, and malt notes that are quickly overpowered by a firm spicy kick. It’s intense—like getting hit by a ten-ton truck—and the heat builds up like a spicy madras curry with little chili heat and allspice. While the finish offers some nice notes of burnt caramel and lingering spice, the overall profile feels unbalanced. The spice dominates and drowns out the other flavors, making it feel a bit one-dimensional. If you love heavy, spicy drams, this might be for you, but the overpowering heat kept it from being a 5-star experience for me.

Few Spirits nailed the balance on this bourbon. It offers a smooth, toffee-forward profile with subtle spice notes that linger nicely. The medium finish has a great mouthfeel, making it enjoyable even neat. While it might not have the prestige of brands like Eagle Rare or Weller, it definitely holds its own as a solid craft spirit.
