Simonas
Simonas,
Tried it in a bar. Nice vanila and caramel tones and quite smooth on the rocks.
 
Joel
Joel,
Smooth with a lot of carmel.
 
Hilary
Hilary,
I liked it. But yes, it is a Baby. Has so much potential. I would appreciate it more if it were aged a bit more, I think.
 
Michael
Michael,
Not great. Heavy cereal and overproofed (and overpriced). Good for cocktails.
 
Scot
Scot,
I drink mine with ice. I loved this. A little sweeter and has a bit of the oak, Carmel and such as you’d expect. I’m getting a little banana, as well. I’ll be getting this one, again!
 
guest
guest,
Popcorn, but in a very good way
 
Adam
Adam,
Decent mixing Bourbon.
 
Alex
Alex,
Strong on the corn, not a huge fan of the aftertaste.
 
Bradley
Bradley,
Unique process results in a unique and likeable flavor
 
Michael
Michael,
Tastes very young. If that's your thing, I can respect that.
 
Patrick
Patrick,
Particularly smooth and sweet. When I added a touch of water, the alcohol bite quieted down and was very good. I agree that the price is on the high end.
 
Timothy
Timothy,
Strange and sweet - not bad, but not for me
 
Stephen
Stephen,
Not as sweet as I anticipated. Actually had a bit of an herb-like taste.
 
Jon
Jon,
Would be a good mixing bourbon if it was cheap, but doesn't have enough going on to stand on it's own.
 
Joe
Joe,
Yes, it’s very sweet and very smooth and nothing like a ‘typical’ bourbon but I really enjoyed it. No burn at all, considering the slightly-elevated proof. My wife (non-whiskey drinker) even liked it. I’d definitely keep this on hand for a relaxed sip, but I think it’s just too expensive.
 
Sunni
Sunni,
Tastes very young and rushed to market. I enjoy a white dog (unaged whiskey) but not at this price point. Was not expecting the weak flavor and strong corn taste at $50-ish per bottle.
 
Jared
Jared,
If you like a sweeter taste to your bourbon, this is a go-to!
 
John
John,
Sweet up front and subtle bite throughout.
 
Theodore
Theodore,
Very sweet. My wife actually enjoyed it. It’s very easy to drink. Flavors just aren’t that I was hoping for. Very corn based. Nothing wrong with that. Just nothing amazing
 
Shannon
Shannon,
Not a fan
 
Daniel
Daniel,
Not a "typical" bourbon, in a good way. Strong finish, mellow taste with sweetness on the back. Warm, complex whiskey that rewards you.
 
Garison
Garison,
Pastry flavor.
 
Laura
Laura,
We enjoy this one because it is local, we stop by the distillery and tasting room once a year or so, and we have some nostalgia for it, but it is not as complex as some others we usually get. It is trying to be soft and sweet but hasn't quite gotten there and still is a bit harsh. We do love some of the small batch liquors they are trying, so I think they are perfecting their craft and will get better over time.
 
Gavin
Gavin,
The 100% corn mash bill hurts this whiskey. It’s sweet but will taste youthful and unfinished due to the lack of barley and wheat/rye. For the price, there are options that are worlds better. Pass on this one.
 
Michael
Michael,
OK sipper but tastes a little young...
Gavin
Gavin,
That won’t change with age. This has a 100% corn mash bill. I agree and for the price it’s a no go whiskey for me.
jonathan
jonathan,
This must be mixed as when I had it with 2 cubes I labored to finish my glass.
 
Matthew
Matthew,
Nots of Carmel nice and smooth
 
Lucas
Lucas,
Just got this in my last tasting box and loved it! Will go get a bottle this week.
 
Brian
Brian,
Too much of a corn note for my taste
 
Ian
Ian,
Hints of cinnamon, dark fruit, and malty flavors. A well balanced whiskey that I like a lot.
 
Jeanne
Jeanne,
It's okay. Smooth, but too sweet / corn forward for me.
 
Donald
Donald,
Starts as butterscotch finishes as melted plastic. One star might be too much
 
Danny
Danny,
High corn flavor not much to my liking. Finish too flowery for me. Like bourbons that make a statement. This one not saying much.
 
Matthew
Matthew,
Exceedingly too much corn and completely unaged.
 
Sky
Sky,
Nice sipping bourbon. You can taste the corn and has a sweet finish. Would drink again
 
Leslie
Leslie,
This bourbon is really awesome. Delicate flavor, delicious
 
Allen
Allen,
I don't get it--this has come reliably recommended to me, gets good ratings, etc. But each time I try it, I just taste a metallic, immature (Baby?), off-putting wannabe. The rest of the bottle sits on my shelf, waiting to be mixed or shared with guests who may like it.
 
Lisa
Lisa,
On the nose, caramel, sweet corn, vanilla. One of the sweeter whiskeys I've tried. It is thicker on the tongue than most. Slight hug at the end. Very friendly.
 
David
David,
just ok
 
Mark
Mark,
Do not like
 
Kendra
Kendra,
Love it
 
Jeremy
Jeremy,
Not smoky. Not sure why people would think that. Good $40 bottle.
 
Stephen
Stephen,
Smooth, with a bit of a bite. Great on the rocks.
 
Matthew
Matthew,
Thought it would taste better
 
Jack
Jack,
could maybe be a little sweeter. as it is, great body with a less than perfect finish
 
Debrenee
Debrenee,
For being aged in under 24 months, I think this is pretty good. Not as intense of a flavor as other well aged bourbons, but it’s price reflects that. Nevertheless, I wouldn’t mind having this on my shelf. Glad I got to try it!
 
Nelo
Nelo,
An ideal whiskey for the beginner whiskey connoisseur.
 
Peter
Peter,
I'll give it a five. His doesn't live up to the reviews. Maybe I got a bad batch. I got this because I read it was sweet. It's NOT! Very musty..maybe see corn husks fell in this one? I'd only buy it again in hopes of getting a better batch.
 
William
William,
This is definitely for the fans of smoky. It's not as sweet or mild as I had hoped.
 
Kristen
Kristen,
Love the sweetness and Smokey flavor
 
guest
guest,
Still new to tasting different whiskeys and developing my palate. Can definitely agree with the app that this has sweet and corn notes with a caramel aftertaste. Average ruggedness for what I’ve tasted so far
 
Ross
Ross,
Smokey flavor, goes down nice. A little too burnt for my liking.
 
Bianca
Bianca,
Earthy but sweet and sippable. A winner in my books!
 
Lindsay
Lindsay,
SWEET CHAR, SPICY BURN FINISH. EASY SIPPER
 
Johnny
Johnny,
I was surprised at the difference in flavor and profile and can appreciate that but I wasn’t impressed.
 
Robert
Robert,
I never spoke with anyone who liked it and after trying it myself, I have to agree.Not my style of bourbon.
 
Ann
Ann,
Our tasting party had four members and they all agreed this Bourbon was the best. The sweet start and warm finish had everyone fighting to finish the glass.
 
Robert
Robert,
Bit of a burn, covered in spice
 
Simone
Simone,
Liked it more as I drank it more.
 
Corey
Corey,
Not for me. High corn alcohol flavor.
 
Bret
Bret,
Sweet up front with a little bit of spice to finish. Just didn't have as complex a flavor or finish as the other 2 out of the Off the Bourbon Trail box.
 
Lukas
Lukas,
Smooth!
 
Jeff
Jeff,
Overall a light spice bourbon. The nose was nice , but flavor on the needs a little more barrel time . Light heat in the finish . A mixer
 
Michael
Michael,
Love this
 
Laura
Laura,
Smooth. I liked it.
 
Craig
Craig,
This is a good Bourbon, but I didn't find it exceptional in any way. It tastes like several other good small batch bourbons I've tasted.
 
Matthew
Matthew,
I liked it. I was rough at first and then finished smooth. Which I liked.
 
Deja
Deja,
Unique flavor. I like it.
 
Katherine
Katherine,
Complex. Smooth. Delightful
