Very disappointed that this came from Georgia. I live in Georgia and it just solidifies why bourbon should NOT be made here. Bottle was $28, on sale for $14 at a local store, also came with a free shot glass and a free coke. It came in a sealed box, so I didn't really have a chance to look at it and it was right at the cash wrap, so I sense they were trying to clear it out. When I got it home and took it out of the box, the color immediately struck me. "Oh-oh, that looks a little weak." It was almost cloudy, too. I put it up next to a bottle of Woodford Select and Four Roses Single barrel. NOTICEABLE difference in the color. I opened it and took a whiff. Nothing jumped out at me, other than a weak smelling bourbon. Finally, with one cube of ice I poured a little, swished it around and took another whiff. Very light oakiness, not a lot of vanilla. Finally the taste. Meh... Barely any burn. Went down almost as if it was 60 proof. A glance at the bottle corrected that. "Yep, it's 80 proof. Hmph" There was a bit of oak, vanilla was almost nonexistent. There was almost an ester of peach, WTH? Figures, it being from Georgia. Sadly, this "Bourbon" didn't quite live up to expectations. I think a rotation in the rack house for at LEAST another three years might do it justice. Like I said, I got it for $14 on "clearance". At $9.97 this would be a decent buy, but most certainly not at $28. This will be mixed with coke to finish the bottle.
