I've seen this bottle before, but never pulled the trigger. How are you enjoying it?
I was curious about it too and this was the first time I tried it. It’s certainly not bad. It’s a bit unique and worth trying but also slightly overpriced. I prefer Uncle Nearest, Buffalo Trace or Woodford Reserve.
 
I think my next drink is going to be a Ward Eight. For some reason, I have come across more than one reference to this cocktail recently. Seems pretty straightforward. Kind of a Jack Rose--which still seems to be my most often gone to cocktail--with rye instead apply brandy. What's not to like? I suppose a Ward Eight has a small amount of orange juice, which does not seem like a plus to me.
