Review: My wife gifted me a bottle of Bib and Tucker 6 year Bourbon one year for Christmas. The bottle is ornate and the shape reminds me of a bottle you may see behind the bar in a western. In my opinion, the $50 price tag is solely due to the bottle. The sourced bourbon inside is mid at best although it is a very classic tasting bourbon. The nose is a bit too ethanol and metallic and the tase is a bit too oaky despite the semi-young age statement.
My Rating: Shoot it!
May the miles you hike be filled with wonder and the glasses you raise be filled with whiskey.
Cheers!
Rating scale:
-Spit: Don’t bother with this one. If a friend gives you a dram of it, are they even your friend?
-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.
