A local store pick. Really solid drink. Very well balanced with traditional bourbon notes of vanilla on the nose. The spice and punch of 120 proof comes out more as you let it sit, but I found this to be a pretty smooth sipper even without water. Spice and a hint of oak lingers on a nice warm finish. At this price and availability, I could easily find myself regularly pouring a glass, or even being okay with using in a solid cocktail that begs for a higher proof bourbon. Very enjoyable. A 3.75 score.
