Another bourbon I consumed in a flurry of day drinking after working overnight. It was generously supplied by my buddy, Ryan. Many thanks, bro.
I really enjoyed the small batch and sweet wheat offering from 1792, and I thoroughly love port finished, single malt scotch so I was really, really excited to try this one. Sadly, I don't think it was finished for very long or the Port casks weren't of the best quality. It's a testament to how good the base whiskey is that I'm still inclined to give it a solid score because I didn't get much (if any) Port wine notes. It's sweet, but so was the sweet wheat, it's pretty smooth, but so was the small batch, so where does that leave this?
It's a tasty bourbon, that's where. I could've kept topping off the tasting glass and lost count of pours quite easily. That speaks volumes about 1792 as a whole. Whether or not you need the batch variations is a matter of personal choice and depth of your wallet. You can't go wrong by picking this or any other 1792 offerings IMO. Go get one or two and see for yourself. Cheers.
