Curtis Mccormick 2.5 December 2022

The dominant flavor of rice was off-putting. It had notes of green wood, fruit, and sweet rice.

Roman Brinkley 3.5 November 2021

A bit too much like a typical bourbon for my taste.

How the score is built

2.44 is the plain average of 4 reviews.

The 3.57 score we rank by pulls that average toward its category until enough people have weighed in, so a handful of glowing reviews cannot outrank a thousand steady ones.
