Well done wheated bourbon. Refined vanilla and baking spice. Subdued heat, nice length. Makes makers mark feel like dilute apple juice. Doesn't have backbone for cocktails; drink neat.

Very balanced bourbon. Good as a mixer if needed too

Smooth drinker, very woody, traditional bourbon flavors, slight rye spice hint despite being a wheater. IMO a well marketed bottom shelf bourbon. About $23?

Color of dark apple cider. Nose is strong with alcohol, spicy sweet, oily, and a bit brown sugar. Taste gives me similar oily feeling, below average sweetness, some coffee beans, a bit leathery and dull. Maybe an average bourbon?

It’s a nice wheated bourbon, and at the price can be a go-to workhorse. It’s got the same spice profile as ORVW, but lacks the soft finish. It’s good though, and just being in the Van Winkle conversation is saying something.

Pappyesque. Wheated bourbon with smoothness.
