Comments:
As someone who is not a true fan of wheated bourbons, I can still see the appeal of this Bottled-in-Bond expression. It has all the hallmarks of a whiskey from that category and excels in rendering a full palate that I find lacking in other well know brands. If you’re into Makers Mark, Larceny, Weller, etc…, you absolutely have to give this whiskey a shot.
