Feel extremely lucky to have got my hands on a bottle at retail when PA dropped this! It’s a super smooth soft easy to drink bourbon. It has a great mix of sweetness and earthy tones. I really enjoy some of the unique flavors and the lower proof just makes it a great pour. Would love to try more iterations!
