"We both really enjoyed this bourbon. As with any single barrel bourbon, your results may vary, but this is one that stands out as a unique take on Old Grand-Dad 114." - Bourbon Obsessed
"The renewed attention that Old-Grand-Dad is receiving hasn’t yet reached Old Overholt levels, but it’s getting there. This new bourbon is proof that it deserves the love—it’s strong, of course, at 114 proof, but there is a lot of complexity on the palate, with notes of oak, honey-roasted peanuts, vanilla pudding, burnt caramel, ripe plum, and blackberries." - Jonah Flicker, Robb Report (88 Points)
"Old Grand-Dad 114 Single Barrel 7 Year Bourbon is an evolution of one of bourbon’s highest value sleepers, adorned in a more premium label and offered at a more premium price point." - Nick Beiter, Breaking Bourbon
"Aromas of toasted sweet corn, caramel, clove, nutmeg, and hot cinnamon fill the nose with a tease of the heat that will come through later on the palate. But to begin, well integrated sweetness, spice, and orchard fruit (both caramelised and tangy) hit the tongue before a wave of sweet heat rises to meet them. Though that heat holds court in the back of the throat through the finish, the fruity, rich flavours mingle with it well and stick to the end." - Amanda Schuster, Distiller (89 Points)
