I wish you could've tried it back when it was a 12 year old.Oh it's still good but the age stated stuff was flat out amazing for under $30.

I keep a bottle of EC Barrel Proof around just because it is the same 12 YO the small batch used to be.With 1 plug it opens to the stuff of yesteryear.BTW this is the only bourbon I use ice in,at 130+ proof it needs a little taming but the flavors it brings out are phenominal

once in a while a few drops of water or an ice cube enables bourbon to open up fully.

You people find flavorful bourbon that doesn't taste like a flamethrower? Due tell.

bourbon, by law, has to start with a minimum of 51% corn...that creates sweetness.
then there might be rye, which adds a sharp note of spice, or wheat which lightens the profile, etc.

I should have said..... You people find flavorful bourbon over 102 proof that doesn't taste like a flamethrower?

There is only one I've had over that proof that I truly enjoyed. MB Rolands
