Old Bardstown Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey, Kentucky, USA (750ml)   

Producer Notes: "A classic Bourbon. On the nose, caramel, oak, vanilla, and just a hint of floral notes. The palate follows with more of the same. A softer style Bourbon, this is a great gateway dram to converting someone to becoming a Bourbon drinker." Region: Kentucky, USA Distiller: Willett Distillery Mash Bill: 72% Corn, 13% Rye, 15% Malted Barley Cask: New Charred Oak Age: 4+ Years ABV: 45% Whisky Jug Review: Not too shabby… not too shabby indeed. Old Bardstown Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey is not going to blow you away but works well as a solid any-time-sipper. The aroma starts out with a caramel front but as it sits and opens more spice and complexity arrives. The palate follows a similar route, but instead of the caramel falling away the rest of the notes get turned up. This is not going to send you barging down the aisles snatching up every bottle available, but it will call to you from the shelf on a Wednesday after work or when you’re looking to fool around with some cocktails. This is a workhorse of a whiskey and at the price, it’s hard to beat for that purpose.
