MONDAY Zero Alcohol Whiskey – An Award Winning Non-Alcoholic Spirit with Zero Carbs, No Sugar, 0 Calories - 750ml

Whiskey/bourbon alternative? No. The color is beautifully dark and looks like. 12+ year aged bourbon. The aroma when opening is sweet raisiny-oak-butterscotch. Tasting it is where it all falls apart.The worst part of this is the texture. When you drink bourbon or whiskey, you know what you are drinking. I don't have the vocabulary to describe how it feels like the water and flavor separate from themselves in your mouth. It's vile and disgusting. On top of that, it is paper thin, which is wild considering it feels like you have two different types of liquid you're trying to drink.The flavor is sickly sweet prune juice. Almost none of the butterscotch or oak from the nose comes through. There is a lingering bite that feels like I ate a pickled jalapeno - awful. This can not be consumed neat or straight, unless you're a big prune water fan. Building an Old Fashioned with heavy amounts of bitters helps; I recommend using maple syrup to add to the mouthfeel and detract from the flavor, or a copious amount of chocolate bitters to highlight that essence of the base "spirit".I won't be buying this again. It was my first non-alcoholic whiskey, purchased because it seemed to be the best of the category. The packaging is beautiful, so it has that going for it....but until they can improve the texture and get it closer to bourbon or other whiskies, this is a hard pass.

This non alcoholic whiskey is fantastic. I’ve tried three different NA whiskeys and bourbons, this is far and above the best of the three. It has a nice burn in the throat when drinking it, the others do not. Highly recommended.

I read the poor reviews and decided to try it anyway as we all have different tastes. Unfortunately, the other reviewers were right as this concoction does not taste like whiskey, bourbon or any alcoholic drink in ANY way. It is not even close. It tastes watery at first sip, a moment later an indescribable unpleasant mild taste sets in, followed by a strong unsavory spicy flavor that lingers for a long time. Four of us took a few sips and thats where it ended. We do not recommend!!!

**MONDAY Zero Alcohol Whiskey - Non-Alcoholic Spirit**As someone who enjoys the flavors of whiskey but is looking to reduce alcohol consumption, I was intrigued by MONDAY Zero Alcohol Whiskey. I hoped it would offer a similar experience to traditional whiskey, allowing me to enjoy my favorite drinks without the alcohol.**What I Like:**- **Complex Flavor Profile**: MONDAY Zero Alcohol Whiskey does a commendable job of mimicking the taste of traditional whiskey. It has a complex blend of smokiness, oak, and subtle caramel notes that are reminiscent of a classic whiskey. This makes it a good alternative for those who miss the flavors of whiskey but want to avoid alcohol.- **Versatile in Cocktails**: This non-alcoholic whiskey works well in a variety of cocktails, from a simple whiskey sour to an old-fashioned. It blends nicely with mixers, bitters, and syrups, providing a familiar whiskey base for your favorite drinks.

It’s calorie-free, sugar-free, and of course, alcohol-free, making it a mindful option for those who still want to enjoy the ritual of having a drink.- **Elegant Packaging**: The bottle itself is beautifully designed and would look great on any bar cart. The attention to detail in the packaging adds to the overall experience and makes it feel like a premium product.**What I Don’t Like:**- **Mouthfeel and Warmth**: While the flavor is well-crafted, the mouthfeel doesn’t quite match that of traditional whiskey. There’s a noticeable difference in the body and warmth that alcohol typically provides. The lack of that familiar warmth can make the experience feel less satisfying, particularly for those who enjoy whiskey neat.- **Price**: MONDAY Zero Alcohol Whiskey is relatively expensive for a non-alcoholic product. While the quality is good, the cost might be a bit high for something that doesn’t provide the full whiskey experience. This might be a deterrent for regular purchase, especially if you’re comparing it to traditional whiskey.- **Limited Appeal for Whiskey Purists**: If you’re a whiskey enthusiast who loves the depth and complexity of traditional spirits, you might find this non-alcoholic version lacking. It’s a great alternative, but it doesn’t fully replicate the experience of drinking real whiskey.**Bottom Line:**MONDAY Zero Alcohol Whiskey is a well-crafted non-alcoholic alternative that offers a complex flavor profile, making it a good choice for those looking to cut down on alcohol without sacrificing the taste of whiskey. It’s versatile in cocktails and provides a health-conscious option for mindful drinkers. However, the lack of warmth and mouthfeel compared to traditional whiskey, along with the higher price point, may make it less appealing to whiskey purists. If you’re exploring non-alcoholic options and enjoy the flavors of whiskey, MONDAY is worth trying, especially if you’re focused on reducing your alcohol intake.
