About Me

Hey, I'm Nick!

Mechanical engineer by day, whiskey reviewer by night. Amongst the Whiskey is an aggregate of my honest thoughts on whatever whiskey roams my way. I am not a professional whiskey taster by any means, but have found this to be both a fun and rewarding hobby when I am not developing medical devices. An avid outdoorsman from New England, you might find me hiking, fishing or tuning a bow when my nose isn't nestled in a glass.

I hope you enjoy reading my notes as much as I enjoy writing them. I hope our palates are somewhat aligned and you can learn something from reading here. Cheers!
