Tastes

Very much enjoyed the flavors present in this pour. Still had the nutty notes but there's much more depth of vanilla in this bottle compared to the Granny's Batch

On par with buffalo trace, definitely a bar staple and easy to share.

Solid bar staple

This is my lowest ranking full proof bourbon, for my palate this is just too many things all at once. I don't hate it by any means however there are many bottles that get picked up first barrel proof or otherwise. Maybe I'm being harsh but I can't imagine this would best a Stagg jr, ECBp, Larceny Bp, OF Bp in a blind.

This is a very fun pour. You get a decent amount of bourbon and rye qualities as intended by HW. Not something I often crave but for a night where I'm looking for something different, this is exactly that.

Honestly from the neck I don't see why this is rated so highly. This might be the highest rated distiller scored bottle I own and I reach for bottom shelf more than I grab this bottle. It's a fine pour but not outstanding as you would expect from the review

I think this is a worthy alternative to some of my favorite barrel proofed bourbons and I wouldn't think it a big compromise. Big notes of banana and caramel.

Closer to a 3.9- sooo good. Love the heat and the character added from the wheat. This is a bottle I need to find.

Smooth as butter with a great consistency. Wish the proof was higher but still a very good sweet profile.

Very solid bourbon. Full bodied and very flavorful, buy this instead of Blanton's... But don't tell anyone because I like being able to find this bottle
