601 bourbon is a no-age-statement whiskey (the stated "aged less than 4 years" doesn't provide real information) from Utica, New York, made from a high-corn mashbill. In fact, it is 100% corn, locally sourced, making it close to a corn whiskey, aside from the new barrel aging (corn whisky can only age in USED barrels, if aged at all). It is one of the few bourbons to use a single-grain recipe. This product is released in batches so variations may occur.

When I have the whisky on my nose I am reminded of a buttered popcorn in an old theatre or Carmel popcorn on Christmas Eve. It is antique-tasting, buttery, spicy, and carmely. I also get some vegetable oiliness. There is some smooth heat in the finish.
Wish I had good things to say about this other than that I got it fairly cheaply, but it'd be tough. It's mashy, medicinal and frankly odd. It's got that young brashness, but coupled with a weird funk.
Sweet and balanced. Incredibly flavorful with just a slight tangy finish right on the nose. Barely any lingering and a wonderfully smooth finish. One of the best bourbons I've ever had.
this is really bad. I aged corn mash in basement one time with those 1 gallon barrells..... It was EXACTLY like that.
Perhaps it was the hype from the LCBO employees but this left a lot to be desired for me.
not impressed at all. I'll finish the bottle but i won't buy it again
