McDonnell Douglas T-45 Goshawk

No you're right, the Carro is a good tank. It's surprisingly well-rounded and can deal with a majority of scenarios very well. It doesn't have the best DPM, but 2.8k is still enough to be a threat. And the gun handling isn't actually as bad as a lot of people make it out to be. The unfortunate fact is that it's easily one of the hardest tier 10s to play. It punishes bad aim, poor clip management, and bad positioning more than any other medium tank save for the BC 25T. The Carro is also probably the most expensive tier 10 medium to play as well, since its strength is dependent on how much you invest in it. Bond equipment, full field mods, full gold, food, a maxed out crew, and really good map reading skills are all a must. But perhaps I'm a bit biased. After all, I have around 700 games in the Carro. It's a challenge to play well and is one of the most unique tier 10s in the game. More on reddit.com

I like how they made the T-45 as a mix of both styles of PA from the 3D era. It's clearly a walking tank like in FO4/76 but it's a lot tighter and more fitting to one's figure like a regular armor in FO3/NV. I might actually prefer how the T-45 looks in the show to the T-60. It's simply perfect. More on reddit.com

Summary: George T Stagg is one of the most sought after whiskies in the US, which means owning a bottle is pretty much impossible unless you spend a ton of money on the secondary or get lucky in a lottery. Luckily, bars that have a focus on whiskey tend to carry a bottle which allows for people like myself to try.

This is the second Buffalo Trace Antique Collection (BTAC) whiskey I’ve tasted, the first being Thomas H Handy. Thomas H Handy is considered middle of the pack in the BTAC, but I really enjoyed it and it’s currently ranked 2/20 on my rye whiskey list. George T Stagg is usually tied with William Larue Weller for best BTAC whiskey, so I jumped at the chance to try it at a somewhat reasonable price.

The nose has a strong cherry syrup scent to it, but it’s not overly rich and blends very well with the scents listed above. The palate is very similar to the nose but toasted notes come into play. The spice level is perfect in my opinion, definitely there but not overpowering. The finish sits in your mouth for a long time. New spice and dark fruit flavor notes line your mouth alongside the cherry. Despite the very high proof, I forgot this bourbon was over 130 proof after a sip, the flavors do an amazing job masking the alcohol. Personally I tend to gravitate towards cherry bombs, so take this review with a grain of salt.

I know the Buffalo Trace hype is out of control, but this bourbon is incredible. While it’s not life changing or worth dedicating extraordinary amounts of time and money to purchase, I definitely recommend purchasing a glass at a bar if at a reasonable price. The only reason I didn’t give this a 10/10 is because the same scent/flavor theme is carried throughout. While I like cherry bombs, it would be even better if there were other unique forward flavors.

Price: $35 per 2 oz. pour (Twin Cities, MN)

Rating: 9/10 Incredible. Almost perfect, short in one or two areas.

Rank: I created a compilation ranking list of whiskeys I’ve purchased at a store or at a bar and done a formal tasting. All bourbon ranked on the list tasted neat in a Glencairn or Tumbler and rested for 10-15 minutes. Whiskeys I ranked below and above George T Stagg (2020) are shown for reference.

#1 out of 69 bourbons tasted.
