Well, I am slightly disappointed. So many great reviews and such hype and I bought it all. It is not horrible (what bourbon is), this is just not what I was expecting. Very oaky, reminds me of a scotch... which is what I am struggling with. If I want Scotch, I will buy Scotch. I will handle this bottle like any other, just won’t buy anymore. Maybe time will open this up for me. I wanted to like this so much too. Sorry folks. Just a strait 3/5.
Update- I have tried this at least 5 mire times, both before and after other bourbons.... still disappointed. This is just way to Smokey or oaky, whichever is the overpowering taste. I do find it a bit sweeter after multiple try’s, but dang that smoke taste kills it for me. Sorry WT, love your brand, but this is a miss for me.
