New notes on an old REBEL YELL 10 YEAR. Tap that LINK IN PROFILE for deets on this exceptional single barrel bourbon. Cheers!
Don’t find these around much anymore. This 2015 one-time release is among my faves, an earthy salted caramel masterpiece. Didn’t have to think twice when I saw it gathering dust in a little shop off the beaten track. They had Blanton’s for $200, George T Stagg for $2K, and this for $65. Like most everyone, they don’t know! Cheers!
