The nose is pretty heavy on the alcohol, with a hint of green apple and orange rind underneath. The taste has a reasonable amount of oak to it, but very little in other flavours. Lots of spice in the finish, with a large amount of old oak taste.
Not a remarkable bourbon by any measure, but a good one for all-around use. I find it works to make a pretty decent Old Fashioned, or even a Sazerac if you want to spice things up a bit, but not something I'd drink straight if I'm looking for a flavourful drink.
Bought in a box at Whole Foods: half-bottle of Bulleit Bourbon, half-bottle of Bulleit Rye. Reasonable cost, but I'd be more inclined to reach for an Old Forester instead.
