I had to see what all the fuss was about when I saw this at a great price. Turns out it’s sweet corn, buttered like mom makes, and not much else. Compared to Jack and Jim, it’s sweeter with much less bite. As a Burbon par excellence, it shines. I would type this as the Burbon Typicale, and award it the height of American whiskey excellence, but it betrays the weaknesses of Bourbon outright (too strong, too obvious, too simple). You’ve won the game with this one, but it was a simple, regional (not global) game. Congratulations? Still, being the top of a class should outrank a lower status in a more prestigious line.
