Excellent bourbon. Lately have taken to trying some low priced offerings to see what quality may exist. This bottle definitely makes a statement in that regard. Very few of the low priced values out there will get you what the extra money spent on other offerings gives you. But this one actually does. This noses and tastes like it is a good bit more expensive than it is. I used to think it would be hard to find a better budget bourbon than the McKenna 10 year BIB at 100 proof, which is a ridiculous value, even with an increasing price of late. But I prefer this more. The fruitiness is almost exotic and Amanda has described the taste experience perfectly. In terms of easy drinking, I would rank this with I W Harper Straight Blend at $35 and even the 15 year Harper, which is truly special IMHO. This only falters in the length of finish. Need to buy a good bit more.
$30 in PA.
