Tastes

After first sniff I decided to let it set out for a little bit. I am very happy with the results, it equated to a warm, full and depth filled juice with floral and earthy notes along with leather similar to Elijah Craig small batches ive tried recently but then a medley of different cherry profiles. My favorite that stood out was the tart cherries mixed with old oak and musty books. Perfect winter sipper. Would buy again.

This bourbon is not worth the price tag in my eyes. I’d rather buy new riff they at least age their bourbon for four years

If you are buying this bourbon with the mindset you are going to taste something groundbreaking or out of the normal standards to what is expected from Kentucky straight bourbon you will be disappointed. But go into the dram with the mindset of these are going to be aromatics and palate notes that I’m very familiar with and to be considered friends and new riff will give you something that is an well crafted, patient welcome addition to the Kentucky straight bourbon family. If you want something different from them try their experimental series like Winter Wheat whiskey. I would buy again. Great value. Would pick over old bardstown bottled in bond!
