Another fading memory at this point but a good time had with @ghill40509 on a weekday afternoon. What is unequivocal is that this is better than the overpriced 15 year version complete with fancy decanter. The profile is similar to that of JTS Brown bottled in bond - lots of dry oak, vanilla, cherries, allspice and maybe a hint of clove and tobacco. It's not a stand out but for the value it is another bottle to strongly consider and puts the 15 year to shame in terms of both flavor and VFM.

It was a fun afternoon sippin and sharing. I have tried the 15 year and liked it but unremarkable. JTSB may be the most under rated bourbon on the bottom shelf. Think I'll pick up a bottle of this one.
