This is a NDP whose products I mostly ignore. Seems like they built a reputation based on early releases which contained very good well-aged bourbon, but have since released mostly overpriced young bourbon.
I have seen these recently marked down to $60-70 locally, but apparently it hasn't moved well even at that price. I took a flyer on it when it was marked down to $30.
I'll say, I think $30 is a fair price for this. It comes across like a slightly higher aged version of Willett Pot Still. I don't know if the barrels come from Willett, or if it's a blend of multiple Kentucky bourbon distilleries. But the prominent notes are floral, cinnamon, citrus, and light caramel. It's said to be a blend of 4-11 year old barrels, but I'd guess it's mostly in the younger range. I'd be disgusted to have paid the $135-150 that this was sold at when released, but again, I think $30 seems fair for the quality, so I'm not disappointed to have this in the cabinet for mixing.
