Navigator Bourbon

Was browsing the store looking for something cool and came upon this one.

Did I buy it because it has a cool bottle? Maybe that played a tiny factor yes.

A straight Kentucky Bourbon, coming in at 43% ABV.

It’s 75% corn, 21% rye and 4% maltex barley, then aged in white oak for three years and finished in Cabernet Sauvignon barrels.

It has a smooth, sweet, spicy flavour with a long, rich finish. I found the notes of vanilla particularly pleasing. I drink mine neat, I find it quite mellow and fruity.

I bought it Everything Wine, costing $89.90. A good solid mid range bourbon.

Wine spectator scored it at 93 points.

I score it 9/10
