I knew not to expect anything close to whiskey; I know the thin, watery sensation that comes from most nonalcoholic wines and spirits, but I'd seen so many surprisingly positive write-ups about this product that I had to try it. But I'm afraid it's awful and I really regret wasting that much money on this.
On its own it's like somebody added a splash of liquid smoke to a glass of old water, and used with a mixer it just heavily dilutes your soda. Maybe there's a hint of ginger in there somewhere, but it's barely worth mentioning.
I appreciate the effort to try to make alcohol-free options, but when it's this bad it just feels like a ripoff. Don't waste your money. There are great alcohol-free beers out there. There's some good aperol-style beverages that can be made presentable with a slice of orange; but this one can't be saved.
