Before continuing, read my last review of the standard Peg Leg Porker Bourbon. It highlights everything unique about the Peg Leg Porker brand. This one is about 2-4 years older than the base whiskey. Flavors are very similar to the last whisky, but you can definitely tell that the age has made it more well-rounded and balanced. It means that the underlying bourbon quality is better than the base with the same BBQ flavors as the other bourbon. I think this does drink better and can get a lot more people onboard with this style of whiskey, but I must say I do prefer the original. This is still really good, but I like Peg Leg for that shot of uniqueness and BBQ flavor and I think the base whiskey has more of it. While the flavor of this one is more refined, I think it's starting to loose some of that "good ol southern BBQ" punch in the face that I loved about the other one. It still has a lot of it, don't get me wrong. But not only that, but for 10-15$ less, I'd personally always reach for the original on the shelf.
