About this bottle

This bourbon is the result of a collaboration between country music artist Brad Paisley and Bardstown Bourbon Co. It incorporates bourbon that was matured in a "Rolling Rickhouse," meaning the barrels were stored in a semi-trailer that traveled with Paisley's 2019 U.S. tour. The final blend consists of four high-rye bourbons aged between 3 and 15 years. Batch One, bottled at 96 proof, was released in November 2021, with 30,000 bottles available in select U.S. markets.

Reyna Hamrick 3.5

Rated 3.55-3.6. Drinkable, with decent flavors. It's a bit hot, especially for something under 100 proof. Nothing remarkable, and not worth the higher price, even with a sale price under $70.

Jesus Oliveira 3.5

Good spirit that makes a fine daily sipper, but it needs more body. Doesn't really taste like Bardstown, it's light. Not worth the $90. Apologies to Brad.

Carmen Gaffney 3.3

It has an off-putting smokiness that I dislike.

Desmond Newton 4.0

An immense vanilla aroma.
