Appearance: The color for this American blend was a surprisingly dark, tawny leather. Its legs were also extremely thin and surprisingly oily. Nose: On the nose I found notes caramel, musty straw, Smarties candy, and weirdly enough, kale. Taste: There was not much here as far as taste. Notes of corn syrup, overripe peach, and slight bit of oak were there and after dash of water a cherry note came out. Finish: The finish was short, and hot & biting on the way down. It left a gulp of soda kind of aftertaste. Thoughts: The good news is, this whiskey can be found pretty much everywhere and for real cheap! The bad news is, this whiskey is not, in my opinion, worthy of anything more than getting mixed in with soda or getting someone smashed fast (which I do not condone.) I'm happy I can say I tried it, to have the experience to guide friends away from it. Sorry Kentucky Deluxe. Cheers!

Very one dimensional. There’s recognizable oak flavor, a whisp of sweetness that’s ripped away by a dirty, acrid finish. It’s finish didn’t seem too long but it was a bit bitter and unpleasant. i just really wanted to see what a truly awful “whiskey” tastes like. i can literally only see this being used as a mixer, but even then the flavor is so awful that you should just spend the money on a cheap vodka instead. At least the vodka will only be astringent and not taste like dirt. Sorry KD fans!
Like drinking gasoline straight up, awful. Only for mixing with soda for college kids looking to get drunk lol.
Sweet, thin, a well drink. Not the worst I've had by far, solid middle of the pack.
Good blending whiskey. Mixed with a Coke Zero and could drink the whole bottle!
Great price for mixing but that’s about it.
