I’m typically a bourbon/rye sipper. That written, this is an EXCELLENT whiskey! Love the barrel strength! Such a smart idea. Good neat or with a rock or two. Drinks like a much more expensive whiskey. Sweet (but not too sweet), full bodied, oily in the best way, warm (but not too hot), smooth. This is one you definitely want on your shelf if you have any taste for Scotch. It’s become a real favorite 🥃😉👍🏼
