The Ohioan whiskey lover in me wishes for a closer bond with our great alcoholic president and sipping this with a respirator would be a good start. But I just can't do it. For me, this straight is intolerable and on ice is just asking for trouble. It is just one step above trying to drink Southern Comfort and relaxing. Sweet, dirty liquor is not made for a casual night out and that's where I categorize this gem. It belongs on the shelf in a frat or a hunting camper but nowhere else.
