I like this a lot! It's great to have on standby RTD, and even better with soda mixer. I like this better than the Bulliet version, probably because it is Buffalo Trace Bourbon. I'm not including much detail about flavor profiles, notes, and finish because as of right now, my Bourbon/Whiskey pallet is still pretty underdeveloped with more than 50 tracked tastings, but less than 100 as of 2022. (That's not all consumed, just all appreciated outside of shots and mixers)

Perfect balance of sweetness and oak influence. The finish is a hint of creamy citrus fruit with a nice bourbon character overall. allspice, clove, vanilla steamer, peanut brittle, chewy caramel, and roasted nuts
Solid blend... spot on Old Fashion utilizing Buffalo Trace Bourbon and Peychauds Bitters. Also lets you make it "your way" from a perfect base (I like extra Orange Bitters, citrus, and a splash of amerano cherry
This is a fantastic old fashioned with no work. Yes I have had one or two better in my life but those were 15 dollar high end bar drinks. For the money and convenience it’s great. Cheers
I normally don’t drink pre-made Old Fashioneds but bot this on a whim. It is a little bit harsher than what I normally have but still tasted pretty good.
Very smooth ready to drink Old Fashioned. Using Buffalo Trace is a plus. Very enjoyable drink.
