Review & Tasting Notes
To be honest, this bottle had us pretty nervous to try out. The reviews were less than mixed, they were divisive! Everywhere you looked it seemed to be a love it or hate it bottle!
Maybe it was the glen cairn glasses, but we really did enjoy this bourbon! Short on finish, but representative of any and all whiskies we like. Plus, such a unique bottle!
