  • Its 7 years in the barrel helps give it a hearty caramel, vanilla, and oak backbone that often defines a quintessential bourbon profile, but it doesn’t offer much beyond that. Of course this is also true of the majority of bourbons in its price range.

  • It’s a very enjoyable, if still simple, sipping whiskey with the bonus of offering plenty of reading material on the label!

  • If a younger, sweeter, hotter bourbon is in your wheelhouse and you're balling on a budget, this is a really good option. It's not incredible, and I'd probably take Buffalo Trace over it most days, but its certainly not bad either.

House Review
  • Nose:

    Sweet honey, corn, light peanuts, toffee and some faint oak. Leaning towards the sweeter end of the spectrum, with lots of dessert notes. Not a lot of oak here, but no youth or must, either.

  • Taste:

    Medium mouth feel. Mild heat. A little younger and mustier. Sweet corn, toffee, pralines and faint oak presence here as well. Good body, and more complexity than I expected. Plenty of vanilla as well.

  • Finish:

    Long, rich and loaded with ethanol. Sweet honey, corn, toffee and vanilla bean. No oak to be found here. Really sweet.

  • Overall:

    If a younger, sweeter, hotter bourbon is in your wheelhouse and you're balling on a budget, this is a really good option. It's not incredible, and I'd probably take Buffalo Trace over it most days, but its certainly not bad either.
