Evan Williams White Label Bottled in Bond Bourbon

Pepper up front. Not robust or complex, but very sippable. On its own, a 3. For $20, a 5. Great to have on hand for daily needs.

Great all around taste and price.

One of the best value bourbons out there The sour mash and heat from the proof are balanced really well

The smell is nothing to enjoy, mostly turpentine little bit of that bourbony sour-sweet smell on background. Nothing to write back home to mom about. The taste is fine, when you give the dram little bit of rest. Sweet flat acidity, hint of winter spices, baked apple, the composition is bit weird for my enjoyment at sipping. But with 50 ABV it's nice mixer. It will not let you down in some Old Fashion or any short drink. In that field it could bring nice bang for buck ratio. Also my note - charcoal filtered is probably something I would rather avoid. I tested quite a few filtered whiskey and they all have in common they're little bit unappealing to my taste. They're all not complex and like missing a soul.

Good for the price but I'd prefer to pay a little more for something more distinctive in flavor

Like the professional review here says- it's not going to blow your mind, but pretty damn good for the price.
