Tastes

This stuff is amazing. Reminds me of Woodford Reserve in terms of how smooth it is, but it’s not as sweet. It’s a sipping whiskey - do not dare waste this on a cocktail. Drink it neat, and take your time. Savor the taste, and the time, with a friend.

Bought it as a sincere gag gift for a friend during the pandemic - he’s a historian, so I dropped off a flask of this and an invitation for a FaceTime call to discuss the merits of Ulysses S. Grant while my friend was quarantined. Bad whiskey, but better than expected. It’s easy enough to drink. Not a rot gut whiskey, but not one to get excited over either. But the whiskey wasn’t really the point. Like Grant said - “The friend in my adversity I will always cherish most” Excellent conversation. Good memory.

Good winter whiskey. There’s some spice to it, and very smooth. Great one for a cold day. Next time a snow storm is coming, go to the liquor store and the grocery store the day before. Get a bottle of this, two days worth of hearty meals, and invite a friend to spend the night. Drink it neat and enjoy!

This is a spicy whiskey, that is good for the winter months. It’s good neat, and better over stones, but it’s best in a warm winter cocktail. Try making some cinnamon spice tea and mixing a shot of this with it. Add sugar (to taste, and don’t be shy - it’s intense) and enjoy watching the snow fall; merry Christmas!

There’s a lot going on with this one. Kind of a sweet whiskey, and the barley is strong. Gives your taste buds something to think about. Definitely drink this over ice - the flavors really come out that way.

Goes GREAT in whiskey sour! If drinking it straight, on ice is definitely better than neat.

Lots of flavor, and very smooth. Good one for winter months.

Leaves a burn, but not a this-whiskey-wasn’t-aged-long-enough burn, more like an I’m-so-glad-I’m-tasting-this kind of a burn. Sip it neat; this is a great Tennessee whiskey that is meant to be savored. Read the story, and enjoy with friends. This one tastes best with conversation.

One of the best bourbons I’ve ever had. Drink it straight up - no cocktail will taste as good as this already does. Use whiskey stones for this one, not ice, if you want it chilled. Perfect for a Friday afternoon in the fall after a long week at work.

This just might be the best bourbon I’ve ever had. So smooth it’s hard to believe. Very sweet bourbon. Almost as sweet as Maker’s Mark. Be careful with this one - next thing you know half the bottle is gone. This is for a Friday night when you’ve had a long week at work, but you still cooked a fantastic dinner. Drink it neat after your meal with one or two friends over, because you did a good job this week.
