Tastes

Meh. Okay, but I won’t seek it out

I did not like this. The smoke & brine flavors were the only ones that could be tasted over the rubbing alcohol flavor that defined this scotch. I will not have again

It was okay. I was excited to try this after enjoying the Knob Creek Rye so much, only to be disappointed. The taste was just very neutral. Not very flavorful. I would drink it again, but I wouldn’t look for it in particular

I bought this, because at the crappy gas station, this was the only bottle of whiskey in a 375ml size that I hadn't tried. Anyway, I really liked it. Might have been because I hadn't had a sip of whiskey in a month due to playing Army out in the field. Anyway, it smelled great. Might have been the rye bread smelling like a Reuben sandwich, or like a flat coca-cola. Anyway, it did something for me. The rye spice wasn't that spicy. I've actually had spicier bourbon in high-rye bourbons than this actual rye. It was just really smooth and quite enjoyable. I would buy this again.

Not bad, but not really spicy like a rye. Just a touch of spicy heat and a ton of caramel sweetness

I liked this much more than I liked Makers Mark. The nose is wonderful, and I like the taste of honey. However, it’s still a little too sweet for my taste. I would buy it again, but I really prefer the higher rye bourbons

Wow! This was good. No outstanding or overbearing tastes, just smooooooth and tasty. I will buy this again. As a bonus, I got my bottle for $59.99 at a store that was trying to clear out overstock

Not bad. It’s better than the Bonded version. I think the extra alcohol covers up the funky orange taste I didn’t like in the Bonded version. $25.99 a bottle, would buy again

This is just a middle of the road drink. It’s supposed to be one of the best bang for the buck bourbons there is. To me, there was just something off about it. Not being snobby about price, because I like Ancient Age and Evan Williams, but this just wasn’t something I would buy again. I believe it might be the orange notes? I just don’t like orange flavored anything

$15.25 on sale. Worth a try. Have not sampled yet
