I don’t think there is enough difference in taste to justify the price difference. I do enjoy it, but not at that cost. That said, I will probably pay up for the Russell’s 15. I’ve had a pour of it and it’s significantly better than both of these.

Just happened to be town for the GR full proof release day in June and I was told there that is about 90 percent 5-year blended with a little 6 and 7 year old barrels. I totally agree that GR’s product’s bang for the buck is second to none in the bourbon world. The good think is it’s widely distributed in many states now.
@distilledbourbonpodcast7033Ай бұрын
Thanks Gary! I heard from GR that it is indeed as you say a blend of 5, 6 & 7 yr olds. Gonna keep this one in your bar?

My first bourbon when I got into it 2 years ago was Russel’s 10 and I swear by it to this day as being the best intro bourbon that can also hold its own against allocated. The first mckenna I tried was not good but I love the bottle I have now.
