This is lovely.
I won’t say I got to taste this “properly”, but we had dinner with my neighbor and she was kind enough to buy this for me because she knows I’m a whiskey drinker. High marks just for that.
I can’t say too much visa vi tasting notes because the focus of the evening was on conversation rather than nosing and tasting, but I can say this was one of the finest bourbons for casual sipping I e had in ages. I’ve been close to loosing my faith in bourbon the past year, and lately if had a few drams, this included, that have helped restore the faith. All the classic bourbon notes are present and perfectly balanced. Why I haven’t tried this before is beyond me. Well done, Heaven Hill. Well done indeed.
As an addendum, it was a real treat to just interact with another human being (besides my lovely wife) tonight. It was a bonus that this awesome dram got to play a part in that.

Good stuff! And yes - it's amazing how good some of the "small" things, like seeing friends, now seem.
