The company isn’t shy about declaring this sourced bourbon from their website, but their bottle gives a drastically different impression. Despite the company being established in 2012 and featuring an 11 year old bourbon, I didn’t expect this to taste so young and grain-forward. I get the sense that a splash of older bourbon was used to round off some of the 4 year old bourbon’s more youthful drawbacks. Apparently they didn’t use enough though, as this is underdeveloped and overpriced for what it offers right now. Cheers to their amazing bottle design though.
