Batch Specific Reviews:

"It remains the only bottle in the Antique Collection that comes close to a more traditional classic bourbon flavor profile due in part to its manageable 101 proof and rye as the secondary grain in the mashbill." - Jordan Moskal, Breaking Bourbon

"Compared to Eagle Rare it’s much darker, oak and brown sugar forward. That said the prevailing note is an extra ripe, juicy cherry." - District Drams
