The local liquor store has all the expensive bourbons because no one can afford them anyway.

I actually like the banana notes on barrel proof, for me it’s more of a caramelized banana not artificial like Old No 7. I feel like if you get a good store pick on these, the proof points don’t matter nearly as much.
