Henry McKenna Straight Bourbon

Good bang for your buck. Not the best neat but good in a Manhattan

Herbal earthiness on the nose. Nothing fancy; a bit bland and thin. Light flavor but still pleasant.

Not bad at all for a handle of whiskey that goes for $20. Very smooth if you add a touch of water. Sweet vanilla flavor typical of almost any bourbon. I wouldn't quite call it peaty, but there is a funky mustiness to it that must be what gives this whiskey the reputation of being an 'old man's whiskey.' I'd give it 80/100. Good enough whiskey on the cheap.
