If this is a "return to its roots" then this is a shitty tree. I dont understand why Sazerac would claim the base ingredient of this is whiskey. It cant be. I think I know what the ACTUAL base ingredient is. Its candy. Yep. Generic candy. Thats all youre going to taste. You could add this to anything in place of Splenda or Sweet 'N Lo and you wont miss a beat. Please take the word "whiskey" off the label. Seriously.
