MGP juice...batch proof...I've heard good things, what the heck? Nose - Smooth creams and vanillas over young cheap cheap oak notes. A touch of earth, perhaps some hay or straw. Taste - Butter, oat bran, young oak, vanilla...a bit different but no sharp notes, alcohol is well under control, good mouth feel. 50 bucks. At that price I can't recommend. This is just too young. This is too expensive. It's also not the sweet and oaky mix I like for mixing. This is for the adventurous with money to spend. I'm a bit disappointed given some hype I heard and the price point. That said it's pretty good if you're just comparing it to 3 year old bourbons. Actually very good for that standard.
