Overall thoughts? I’m a diehard Kentucky basketball fan, but even I love the label art. However, this bottle is more than just sports fun… the bourbon inside is pretty damn good. What’s not to love? It’s 7 yr MGP with an additional 16 months in an ex-bourbon barrel that happened to hold Stagg Jr. Yes, please! Whether or not you care about college basketball… this is a bottle worth a spot in your precious shelf space.
