Mellow Corn Bottled in Bond Whiskey

All things considered not bad.

Not too shabby for an inexpensive bottle. Lots of corn sweetness on nose and the palate with just the right amount of ethanol burn.

Having tried three other corn whiskies, and found two of them awful, I wanted to try this both because of recommendations, and to see if everything other than Balcones was sour and undrinkable. Well, this is NOT sour and undrinkable - it's actually pretty good. It's 100 proof, and being bottled in bond it's aged at least four years. I found two separate mash bills online, and I don't know which (if either) is the right one - 90% corn, 10% rye and malted barley; 80% corn, 8% rye, 12% barley. The fifth cost me $17 and change, but either I didn't get the receipt or I lost it somewhere, so I can't give an exact price. NOSE: Sweet alcohol, roasted slightly scorched corn, butterscotch, caramel, and a slightly sour note TASTE: Creamy mouthfeel, caramel, honey, sweet corn FINISH: Honeyed corn, faint oak - lingers longer than you'd think This isn't a complex whisky, which isn't surprising considering the barrels it ages in, but it's a good whisky. It's not great - I just gave it three stars - but it's much better than Longhorn or New Mexico Blue, which are foul. It can't compare with Balcones Baby Blue, but overall I'm glad I bought it, and I'll buy more in the future.

Sweet with a little pepper. A good sipper on a hot day. Not overly complex

Not very interesting and very one note. Good for mixing though and incorporating buttery corn notes. Bottled in Bond and cheap can’t go wrong
