There's very little difference between castle long mixology and castle long reserve to my taste buds. There is much more difference between castle long mixology and gentlemen's reserve.

Yeap, about $10 a bottle to be exactl!!!!

BTW - before anyone says anything, I happen to LOVE CL and CLR. I'm holding on to the last of my only bottle of CLR for special moments. I am finishing my second bottle of regular (non-reserve) bottle of CL. To me, there is a big difference between FP CL and CLR (I prefer CLR).

I've got a little less than half a bottle of CLR left, compared it against CL when I first got it (side by side), I could taste more oaky flavor in the reserve (as I remember), but it was NOT a night & day difference TO ME...YMMV. I obviously think more of the CLR since I'm saving my half bottle for something special too ;) where I've been thru at least 5 bottles of CL since its been officially released, and now available locally to me :D

If TGR were local, I'd go thru it like wild fire at the price.... there is one B&M near me that has a clone of CLR, they claim its barrel aged, but its $30/30ml ..... I bought 1 bottle, its not CLR.... its more like stronger TGR (still good!). I told the shop owner if he sold it for the same price as his other liquids ($15/30ml) I'd buy it all the time as I'm sure others would too, but he's getting double for it and happily doing so I guess....

As for The Steam Co, I had a problem with my last order, emailed them about it, was told they would correct immediately, and still no new package. :( I'll wait until middle of the new week coming and see if I get my replacements, but I'm a little disappointed in the delay.

The Beaumont I could taste something, couldn't nail it down, and as soon as I suspected butterscotch I went to re-read the description and sure enough butterscotch. I thought it was cherry cognac/brandy/bourbon..... I wasn't expecting much else. What I like most about it, is that is BOLD.... in your face flavor - Like the Five Pawns usually is (I know everybody hates the comparisons, but sorry - its what I'm measuring it against ok).

The Orchard and TGR is a little weak on flavor, I really with the TGR would be as bold, or stronger, more flavoring or something - The taste profile is there just muted.... I say that and I've been thru about 6+ bottles since I found the stuff (based on a suggestion from someone in the forum). The orchard is straight apple whiskey. It's not terrible, it could probably grow on me....... but at first impression I'm not liking it.

I'd really like it The Steam Co would offer LARGER bottles at better prices. Seduce Juice (as an example) offer's Jango (another one of my favs) in 118 (120) ml bottle for $40 (used to be $35 and change but its one of their best sellers so they upped the price) but even at $40 (ish) for 120ml thats a good price compared to 30ml for $20....... THANK GOD FOR THE COUPON CODES! :D KEEP EM COMIN'

Liquids have arrived, had initial tasting, and review posted in the e-liquid review section! Spoiler alert - I liked ALL the liquids, and am very impressed by the processing speed, packaging and overall service. Two thumbs-up to the Steam Co!

I've only purchased TGR, but I loved it immensely and they shipped crazy fast!
