With a cost at approximately $100 USD here in New Hampshire, you would be better off with Woodford Reserve's Double Oaked or a bottle of Blanton's Original Single Barrel for approximately half of the cost. With that said, this is by no means a terrible bourbon. It's easy to drink neat with no chaser. The smoke flavor is noticeable, but not overpowering. There is just very little that stands out and even less to celebrate with this mediocre spirit for the cost.
