Review: I have been a long time fan of the 1792 small batch so when I came across a store pick of the Bottled-in-Bond at my local Total Wine, I jumped at the chance to buy it. I enjoyed the sweet fruit notes and subtle palate of the Small Batch but the BiB is a bit richer with dryer tannic oak and leather notes. It is a fun whiskey to explore but surprised me with just how different it was from the sweet and easy small batch. Cheers!

My Rating: Sip it

May the miles you hike be filled with wonder and the glasses you raise be filled with whiskey.

Cheers!

-Shoot: Good enough to get you drunk.

-Sip: Tasty enough to enjoy neat or on the rocks.

-Stock: I’d recommend keeping a bottle on hand.
