Tasting notes are on point when referencing oak, vanilla and cinnamon. The cinnamon doesn't over power the drink, yet a subtle sour mash infused of these ingredients hits home.
Bulleit bourbon to me was one of those whiskey's I saw and fell in love with the prohibition style bottle. The char to this drink makes it distinct and easier on the gut in comparison to Jack Daniel's Ole No. 7. That shit causes you to get into drunken style boxing in the garage and someone ends up going ass over tea kettle by a well place recycling bin.
A distillers score of 83 / 84 would make sense to me, but a low 3 out of 5 is what i would rate this. It's a great way to test different bourbons and how they compare to others. If you're a beginner in the rhelm of whiskey, then this is the one for you as the price is good and can be mixed in ginger ale, coke or pepsi. Sipping neat provides more dept of course, but not too much depth to return for a second bottle.
Cheers,
