Bottle at home, neat in a Glencairn. Moderate pepper rye spice, oak, tobacco, mild vanilla. This was my first bottled-in-bond when I discovered it last month in a rogue ABC store, and liked it enough to buy 6 more bottles before the limited stock was gone. I still think it is good, and at $13.99 is a great buy, and really rare in VA. 5/26/19.
