Bottled Tastes

Our story

About Bottled Tastes

Bottled Tastes started with a simple idea: reviewing games should feel less like a spec sheet and more like a proper tasting. Every review here is poured out the same way we sit with a game, take our time with it, and write down exactly what we notice, good and bad, in plain language.

What we cover

We focus on indie games first, and we’re expanding into movie and music reviews using the same approach honest impressions, no score phoned in, no hype for hype’s sake. If it’s worth your time (or a warning to skip it), we’ll tell you plainly.

Our approach

  • We play, watch, or listen to everything we review before writing about it.
  • We write for readers deciding whether something’s worth their time and money not for developers, studios, or labels.
  • If we were given early access or a review copy, we say so.

Got something we should review?

We read every message that comes in.
