I am going to enjoy drinking it though.ġ Star - Good whiskey: I would choose to drink this over readily available whiskies Doc Swinsons Bourbon 15 Year Rare Release 750ML Unavailable. Overall I’d give a slight edge to the Master’s Keep 17 Year Bottled in Bond if you had to pick one of this year’s high end Turkey releases and I don’t think this bottle justifies the price. On the other hand I was surprised how strong the nose was and how long the finish was with the low proof. 12 year rum, Orange Blossom Vodka, ginger, almond syrup, fresh lime. 15.50 Pride & Joy Stonefruit Rita Blanco Tequila, Peach, Apricot, Fresh lime, Hibiscus Tea. 14.50 Spicy Blackberry Margarita plata tequila, orange liqueur, blackberry purée, habañero lime syrup, lime juice. That said the low proof definitely takes a toll on the mouthfeel and there weren’t any really standout notes compared to a good Russell’s pick. Bourbon, Licor 43, Fresh lemon, Ginger Syrup, Ruby Port. This is an excellent whiskey and is very well balanced. Unfortunately a relatively thin mouthfeel.įinish: Very long finish with lingering oak, baking spice and sweet vanilla. The specific taste of the baking spice notes is very nice. The spice and oak picking up on the back of the palate. Taste: Sweeter than the nose with more caramel and vanilla along with something else I couldn’t place. ![]() Nose: Surprisingly robust for the proof with rich oak and baking spices, Wild Turkey funk, sweet caramel and vanilla notes. I’m a big Russell’s Reserve fan and I enjoyed the Master’s Keep 17 year BiB from earlier this year even if I did think it was a bit pricey so I decided to take the plunge and buy a bottle. ENJOY THIS HIGH-PROOF BLEND OF 36 AND 21 RYE BOURBONS ON A L.

On Day 10, with no notice or window for delivery, a guy showed up in a pickup with no company markings or uniform and delivered the shipment. Light control is on outside of bottle with drilled hole and grommet. The carrier never provided a tracking number, despite B‑21 customer service indicating that would happen. Upcycled Doc Swinsons Bourbon and/or Rye bottles with battery-operated lights. ![]() It was Day 7 before I received a little information from B‑21, and that info came because on Day 5, I requested the status of the shipment. It took about 10 days for the order to be processed and delivered, which would be OK ‑ if B‑21 better communicated status and tracking information for the shipment. Placing the order and setting up an account was easy. 2) there is a LOT of funny business going on. This means that even if ALL funny business stopped tomorrow, we still aren’t seeing Pappy on the shelf. In today's world of ecommerce and customer expectations, these issues are an easy fix! B‑21's prices are fair and they have a pretty good selection. I fundamentally believe two things when it comes to bourbon. I debated a one or two star downgrade based on poor communication from B‑21 about the shipment zero communication from the carrier about the status of the shipment and the "surprise" unscheduled delivery.
