From Jim Murray's Whisky Bible 2010 Edition: 92.5 Rating.
"Big, weighty-rye with an attitude. In a heard of any 30 random bourbons, this one would stand out by nose alone. The taste is puckering and mouthwatering, they ryes go ballistic, especially on the spice front. With salivation levels on full blast, it is sometimes hard to pick out the more delicate custard-cream and apple nuances. The oak finish kicks in at the death with a shot of licorice and coffee. But they ryes refuse to be downbeaten. A shade heavier than when I first tasted this one with the oak showing a burlier attitude. However, the unique rye fizz ensures a delightful and by no means understated degree of charm. Fabulously different and wholly adorable."
