Raided Score: 80Breaking Bourbon By Eric People don’t go to McDonald's for a gourmet burger, they go for convenience, and an agreeable balance of quality and value. That encapsulates Extra Aged in a nutshell. Read Full Review Raided Score: 84Distiller By Tim Knittel Finish is long with strong lingering caramel, oak and warmth. Read Full Review Raided Score: 88Drinkhacker By Christopher Null There’s nothing you won’t enjoy here, but it’s short of a standout, too. Read Full Review Raided Score: 75The Daily Pour By t8ke Honestly not bad. Not great, but it’s good enough for an occasional sipper and cocktail duty.

House Review
Nose:
Caramel, honey, light funky peanut brittle. A little bit of youth here, but not a ton.
Taste:
Sweet vanilla bean, a light hint of caramel. Faint oak, but also a bit of grainy youth.
Finish:
Medium finish, pleasant oak and caramel. No major complexity, but plenty of character, from the extra time aging.
Overall:
Honestly not bad. Not great, but it’s good enough for an occasional sipper and cocktail duty.
