Tastes

This is a strange bottle. It feels like a weird combination of elijah craig 12 and Heaven Hill BiB 6yr. There's a depth and woodiness that one might begin to enjoy followed abruptly by an aggressive green, youthful harshness--in flavor, not so much burn. It is certainly not unpleasant, but it does fall shy of being a standout.

Equal parts dusty urethane, brown sugar, oak, and unyielding affection.

Ugh, this is great.

too sweet, but not bad for the price.

If you need any convincing to not give this company any more of your money listen to the excruciatingly painful Kerkhoff interview: https://whiskycast.com/templeton-ryes-kerkhoff-calls-settlement-legalized-stealing/

cloyingly sweet and, like most stranny's, very syrupy.
