Tastes

A decent pour, but please don’t pay the secondary price on this. It’s worth having on your self if you can grab it at retail. To me this tastes like a less refined old Fitzgerald BiB. The finish is like the lower Heaven Hill lines.

Nose is incredible, as many of the other reviews have stated, this would be top shelf if it was higher proof. With that being said, this is one of the best sub 100 proofs I’ve had.

Best under $40 bottle you can get. Even tastier than Weller Special Reserve.

This one surprised me a little. Worth the look. Lots of notes similar to woodford. Would recommend a woodford lover try this pour.

I just side by sided this with King of Kentucky and this took the cake. Defiantly losses in the nose but makes up in the flavor. Not going in depth here, this is just too good and I need to enjoy.

First off: this is wildly unique. The nose is one of the most robust I have ever smelled. The front end of the first sip is very aggressive (forward ethanol up front) but finishes smooth and complex. That being said, the secondary price for this is certainly not worth it. I would put it on par with the Buffalo trace Antique collection. The shear uniqueness of this is worth a 1 oz pour to try. Everyone is going to think differently about this because of the profile.

Insanely smooth. Poured this up to see if it was worth the hype. It is.

This has very similar notes to my single barrel barrel proof I have at home on the shelf - only it is certainly smoother. A finish that heats gently and fades away with the subtle notes of old forester that I love. Fantastic and certainly worth a try, but not worth the secondary price

The best of the big boys. The flavor profile of this pour truly is unique. Honestly, I prefer this to its father (depending on batch of course). Even the secondary price of this is worth it. Oak & light cherry finish with a smooth and tempered burn + a nose that means business. Pulled this as #1 with multiple blind taste tests (with WFp, Blantons, bookers, multiple batches of ECBP). A must pour

If you can find it, buy it. Lots of batch variations, in my opinion B19 >B20. No matter the batch, this stuff rocks
