Bingojuice 4.8

Dark color, no doubt due to the Cabernet Sauvignon barrel finish. Lot's of vanilla, caramel and butterscotch. Super smooth drinking. 90 proof so not a ton of burn. Punches above its weight class. Great pour for the money. Huge Value! 93pts.

Phineas Gage 2.0

Just amazingly unmemorable. As soon as its off my tongue its like it never happened. Not bad just amazingly generic.

beastow316 3.0

Cab finished makes the bourbon too sweet for my preference, however it’s easy to sip with classic bourbon notes.

Tom Mikulski 4.0

Can drink neat or as a mixer. Great price point. Sips smoothly and has some warmth on the back side

Bradq1234 3.5

Good burn. Smooth and dangerous with and without ice. Ice makes this an extraordinary offering.

chad brandon campbell 4.5

Very nicely balanced and warming. Underlying cabernet notes come through on the finish.
