GBI am extremely disappointed with this… I am extremely disappointed with this product. We got the Whiskey Alternative and it is extremely smokey and spicy; it does not taste remotely like whiskey. It’s more like a bad mixer. Have been trying to get a refund from RZ since the store we bought it from will not refund opened bottles. When I emailed about the problem and it was discovered we bought it at a store and not online, haven’t been able to get a response about a refund for some reason. Hopefully it’s just an oversight, but very unimpressed despite all the “rave reviews”.

GBAvoid the Aperitif, enjoy the Rum Enjoyed the Ritual Zero Proof Rum, Whisky and Gin alternatives -- but the Aperitif Alternative tasted slightly worse than the cherry cough syrup I remember from my youth. The same chemically bitter taste attempting to hide behind a sickly sweet fluid. Afraid this one really doesn't work. The rum is best, the gin good in G&Ts, the whisky tasty as long as you don't think of it as whisky. Avoid the Aperitif!!!!

GBLove the idea but unfortunately the… Love the idea but unfortunately the execution was off. I tried the tequila alternative but it was too peppery. Might be good in a bloody Mary or something calling for mezcal. Will not be experimenting with the others as theses bottles are not cheap

GBThe whiskey alternative is horrendous… The whiskey alternative is horrendous and more so a Scotch alternative than a bourbon alternative. Super smokey on the noise, SWEET, and horrendously spicy for no apparent reason other than to emulate the alcohol burn. The tequila is a slightly better representation but also way too peppery on the finish. I asked my husband if he added jalepeno to my margarita. It's THAT spicy. I'm dreading the gin because gin is my favorite spirit. I just don't think I can stomach it if it's anything like the whiskey.

GBI ordered the whiskey alternative I ordered the whiskey alternative. The package arrived timely, the packaging was lovely, and there was a booklet of cocktail recipes included. I made some Old Fashioneds for my husband and I and we were pleasantly surprised by the flavor and warmth. My husband was even up for a 2nd round, which he rarely wants with other alcohol alternatives we've tried. Curious to try the other flavors.
