Tastes

As a novice of bourbon tasting, I think this is a nice everyday sipper either neat or on the rocks. Is a bit mellow for mixed drinks. Very good starter bourbon if you're a rookie. Given it's widely distributed and available in most areas, everyone should buy a small bottle and give it a try.

Good overall flavor, but too hot for me personally. Many of the flavors of vanilla were overpowered by the spicy follow-through. Otherwise, definitely worth a try given the price point.

My current go-to bourbon (when I can find it) especially for Old-Fashioned cocktails. I wish the rating system was more granular as I don't feel it's a perfect bourbon, but it's more than a 4-star imo.
