Style / proof
Kentucky straight, 100 proof
Ideal moment
Game night bourbon for when the Celtics are playing and you need something sturdy for victory pours and consolation prizes.
My take
Brown sugar, baking spice, and just enough heat to remind you it’s there. My favorite ‘house’ bourbon for cocktails—if I ruin a Manhattan experimenting with bitters, at least the base is solid.
