Whistle Pig Piggyback Bourbon 750ml

That 100-proof hits perfectly without being harsh, and the vanilla and honey notes really come through. I've been sipping it neat and it's dangerously smooth for the price point.

I was a little worried it might be too sweet, but the caramel and vanilla notes are balanced nicely by the higher proof. Makes a great old fashioned without needing any extra sugar.

The 100-proof gives it a nice kick, but the caramel and honey notes keep it from being harsh. I’ve been enjoying it neat and in an old fashioned—works well both ways.
