The premise of this bourbon is that its voyage at sea would make it subject to a variety of climates (plus the waves agitating the barrels, etc). So you might expect the end result to be a bourbon with some scotch flair, and some Balcones/Texas flair. But really you get neither of those, just some salty bourbon. Now it does taste quite nice, not bad at all. And it makes a great old fashioned, but it’s just not worth the $80 price tag. Have some at a bar before you get a bottle
