Augusta Distillery - Old Route Eight 8 Year Old Single Barrel Cask Strength Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey

When Tom and I heard that there were two new, rare, limited release Kentucky Bourbons that the whiskey world is buzzing about coming available we didn’t miss a minute. Those types of special spirits can disappear in an instant. But while that’s a good enough indicator for us to pique our interest, we still feel the need to see for ourselves just what’s going on before committing, and boy, were we impressed! This is everything a bourbon drinker is looking for, and then some. Highly Recommended
