Blue Run TRIFECTA Bourbon 750ml

The nose alone is worth the price—rich caramel and oak that unfold beautifully. At nearly barrel proof, it drinks smoother than I expected, and the 6-to-8-year blend gives it a depth that rivals bottles twice the price.

The blend of 6, 7, and 8 year old bourbons gives it a smoothness I didn't expect at this proof, making it dangerously easy to sip neat.

The nose on this is incredible—rich caramel and oak notes that you'd expect from a much older whiskey. The proof is warm but not harsh, and the blend of 6 to 8 year barrels really shines in the finish.
