Reads the product story in the bottle "This mature kentucky bourbon whisky has been aged for over 3 full years in newly crafted & charred American White Oak Barrels from which it takes its depth of colors & smooth dry taste".That explains the number three in it's name. Now it is time to see if it lives up to it's story. Moving on to the best part , my tasting notes :-). Enjoy.

For the price it is surprisingly flavorful. It is a little on the sweeter end just like any bourbon. It is an easy to drink whisky, would go well on the rocks as well. It does not really have a deep complex flavor like scotch of course. Also, because of it's price point it is ideal for large parties or using it in cocktails. I believe it would make a mean Old Fashioned or a Manhattan. Yum!

It was a privilege to share this drink with our whiskey blogger himself. Wanted to get something you might have not tried, but didn't realize the price was actually less than what I thought. Only noticed this till we talked about it later. Anyways, like you said great value whiskey.
