Filling out a taste review for previous adventures. I'm shocked this didn't earn over an 87 on the app. This is a perfect upgrade to the four peel gin with soft, oaky tannins and vanillins from the bourbon barrel. I drink this straight with a bad cold. Mix it to be more sophisticated.

This was my first Bourbon barrel aged gin. I really enjoyed it. Strong juniper and vanilla on the nose, almost perfume. Smooth on first taste, with floral juniper and a touch of vanilla oak. Very interesting dram.
It is definitely a different gin, but I like bourbon a lot so having a bourbon flavored gin is awesome
Smooth after a very quick pinch at the beginning. Botanical throughout
Its the best of both worlds! So smooth, light and easy to drink!
Good enough to sip neat, but excellent in a Negroni.
