Honestly, my expectations were quite low. I wasn't a big fan of the Tincup American Whiskey previously. This bourbon is quite pleasant, especially considering its price. It's 80 proof, so you can't anticipate too much, but I was generally very pleased. I would certainly consider buying it again.

The aroma offers faint caramel corn, sweet oak, and mild citrus. The taste is abundant with caramel and vanilla, alongside sweet corn and oak. Overall, it's a classic bourbon. The proof is a bit low, but it has a pleasing body. The finish is light with sweet oak and vanilla. A very pleasant, mild, and balanced bourbon. I'll purchase it again!
