    • @Finis08
      @Finis08 2 місяці тому +1

      @@MajorXero Yes, I have had a decent amount of it. It is their Small Batch Bourbon but infused with wildflower honey. I refer to it as the WT American Honey on steroids. The honey notes are much richer while due to their Texas aging, it doesn't overpower the more traditional bourbon notes. You can still pick up caramel, oak, and even some apricot on the palette. The only con in my opinion is that at around $60 it is a bit pricy for a bottle that is inherently designed for mixing cocktails. Although, if you like a nice Hot Toddy it really shines with those. I typically go through a bottle every year just for that reason. Just need to remember to keep a little around next time for trying in a BBQ sauce as I think it would work extremely well in one.
