About a year later, I took it out and gave it another try. Compared to other bourbons in the $40 range it was a little below average, not particularly complex. From Willett, the Old Bardstown 10 year 101 is a better bourbon at a better price.
The price is not bad, the bourbon is OK for the price point, and the bottle is eye catching. I think they use the bottle so stores have to put it up on the top shelf. That is not where the contents belong. Now that I have the bottle, I would not buy again.
Having said that...for some reason I broke out the Pot Still during the half-time show and drank it exclusively during the second half of Super Bowl LVII...so it will always have a place of honor in my cabinet.
