Aged to perfection - Powerful flavor cuts through the ingredients.Woody aftertaste - A nuance that helps the whiskey linger after every sip.Well spiced - Triggers saliva production to lubricate the throat.Price-wise, it’s at the very limit of what I’d consider an appropriate budget for hot toddy whiskey, but the fact it’s an amazing drinking closet mainstay to have throughout the year certainly sweetens the deal. It hits the tongue softly, then blooms across the taste buds in a phantasmagoria of delicate spices and cream, followed up by a robust, woody aftertaste.Īged in sherry casks, it has an almost Christmas pudding-esque punch, which I feel blends wonderfully with additional cloves and spices, doubling down on the saliva-inducing qualities of a toddy and saving your sore throat. One of the smoothest whiskeys I’ve ever had the privilege of drinking, this triple-distilled Irish masterpiece is a thing of utter liquid beauty. While Redbreast is definitely positioned in the market as a sipping whiskey, if I have some in the house, and I’m feeling rough, I simply can’t resist a tipple in my hot toddy - it’s simply divine! A couple more would really invigorate the flavor. 45% ABV - Strength provides a little extra pick-me-up.Sweetness - Goes down easy, even if you’re feeling nauseous.

Unspiced - Gives full control of spicing to you.Flavors - Caramel and vanilla notes are very soothing in a hot toddy.Price - Not too expensive, not too cheap… just right!.It’s not the cheapest, but neither is it going to leave you destitute, which is sort of the sweet spot for a toddy whiskey, and once you’re all better again, it’s a dynamite straight sippin’ beverage! This whiskey also really lets the lemon sing, and the smooth finish is incredibly easy on the throat, so if you’re feeling a little hoarse, Maker’s Mark really hits the spot.Īt 45% ABV, it’s also got one hell of a boozy kick to it, which is exactly what you need to perk you up and get you feeling somewhat yourself when the sniffles strike. Maker’s Mark is a delicious Kentucky bourbon that pairs a corn-based mash with sweet wheat rather than aromatic spices, which I think imbues it with the perfect give and take for top-notch toddy - notes of caramel and vanilla take center stage without eclipsing your own choice of spices.
