A solid addition to the Elijah Craig lineup. Initial tasting came off with a mouthful of heat and alcohol like taste....after letting it “sit and breathe” (15-20 min) found it to be more palatable and quite enjoyable. Several tastings later and I’m liking it more and more.....is it as good as Michter’s Toasted....NO! But from the sounds of it it will be more readily available each year and that “sits” just fine with me.
