Bulleit Bourbon Hessian Sack Whisky 70 cl

Beautiful. I've had better bourbons, but not without paying a good £10 more or so minimum, and it's still close. Bulleit has a high rye content compared to most bourbons, giving it a rather unique taste. It's got a little less kick than most of its peers in terms of alcohol content for a whisky, but makes up for it with excess flavour. It's bold, it's spicy, with a lingering sweetness. It may not be for everyone, but if you like flavourful bourbon you at least should give it a try. And if you love it, try their 95 Rye, which for around a fiver more has a hugely upped rye content (from 28% of the mash being rye to 95%!) making it even punchier, to the point that I can't drink too much in one sitting.Basically, this has become my go-to bourbon when I want something for the weekend, aren't buying something cheap to mix with coke, but can't afford to break the bank on something luxurious. It's just good, and unique enough that I'd recommend any bourbon fan give it a shot just to experience something new.

Always been a Scotch drinker.I like a fair few malts, love my smokey Islay whiskys, love the complex Highland whiskys and there's even a few Speysides that I can sit and sip neat.Always though of bourbon as an inferior product, but maybe the smooth sipping of the Speyside tempred the fire I enjoyed from Isaly, and after trying two or three of the usual culprits a friend recommended me this, and after pouring two generous fingers over two cubes of ice and sitting late in the evening after everybody had gone to bed, I spent half an hour with this in the glass, and I must say, every last drop was an oral treat. Since then, I've drank a few 100 proofs, a few ryes, and a few aged bourbons, and they all have merit, but this is almost imposiible to beat at this price or any price. Utterly delicious...

Wow, just WOW! amazing, Drink neat, and enjoy it, this is not a swig and run drink, this is a sip and relax drink.Such a smooth and refreshing taste. For a Bourbon, this is by far the best tipple you will try and keep coming back for! JD doesn't even come close to this beautiful and gorgeous golden Bourbon!I will end with, if you like to mix your drinks, stay away, if you like them neat and enjoy the taste, come get some!

I'm normally a single malt whisky drinker but I've had the odd bourbon and rye whisky when in Las Vegas that's gone down well so I decided to expand my collection at home. Other than some cheap supermarket bourbon which I enjoy with a mixer this was the first one in my sights.Bulleit packs a real punch but does so in a classy way that makes it extremely drinkable neat, or with a solitary ice cube. Bourbon can take an ice cube better than a scotch can but doesn't alway stand up to a dash of water so easily. This makes a great pre-drinks option as it's sure to get you fired up for the night ahead, or alternatively a bottle of this during a game of Texas Hold 'Em is sure to go down well. Just don't blame me when the bottle's empty at the same time as your wallet!

If you like JD and are starting to try other Bourbon. Do not try Gentleman jack (its crap)This is by far the best everyday bourbon. This is not Single barrel but is by fat the best best best everyday bourbon and according to the connoisseur's the best cocktail bourbon.Do not ever buy JD again, buy this (unless its single barrel, as that tastes like gold)

This is a very nice whiskey, although I prefer makers mark. I bought this for £15 and at that price there's nothing better. If I'm honest over the 20 price range there is others I'd buy. But whiskey is hard to review properly due to peoples taste buds being different. All I can say is, if you like bourbon it's definitely worth a try. I'm a big fan of makers mark and Jonny walker Black label. So this is how I make my comparison. I'd buy it again if it was at the right price

I purchased this after a recommendation from a friend who had tried it recently. Given it was on offer over prime day, I though I'd give it a go.I'm generally a Whisky drinker so this was a little different. It's got quite a strong flavour to it - I found it a little harsh to drink neat but with some coke it went down pretty quickly (and only lasted a couple of days).Good value for money and would consider getting again

Bought as a gift for my Dad. Was hoping it might be similar to southern comfort, he informs me it's not but he did said it's very smooth and polished off a couple of glasses between him and my brother in law so it must be alright (I don't like whiskey). He didn't however bang on about it for ever so that's why I dropped one star. Possibly not the most helpful review but if your after a nice whiskey this is probably a good one but its nothing to write home about that was the impression I got.
