Bourbon Reviews:
| Bottling Name | Prichards Double Barreled | | Bottled By | Prichard's Distillery, Inc. Kelso,TN | | Type | Bourbon | | Alcohol content | 90 Proof | | Availability | US: Available Japan: Unknown Duty Free: Unknown Europe: Unknown | | Age | 9 | | Views (since 20080612) | 38254 | | Bottling Info | A little known fact is, most whiskies are barreled at relatively high proof and cut to bottle proof with water. "Your whiskey has been watered down before you even screw off the cork". Can you imagine how this dilutes the flavor?
Benjamin Prichard's Double Barreled Bourbon has been cur, then rebarreled in charred oak barrels and aged again. This exclusive process restores and enhances the natural flavors bourbon is so noted for. |

Review from jburlowski (BourbonEnthusiast Review ID 526, Created:20060612083018) | Purchased at: | Part Source, Bellevue, KY | | Purchased for: | Approx $40 | | Info on this bottle: | | | Proof Of this Bottle: | 90 | | Nose: | The nose is pleasant and subdued, with hints of vanilla. | | Taste: | The taste is quite smooth and almost buttery; toffee and vanilla accents predominate.
| | Finish: | The finish is also quite smooth and short with little discernable burn. | | Overall: | This is one very drinkable and likeable bourbon.
But my overall impression is one of disappointment. This bourbon is agreeable and very approachable. But it seems to lack any soul or unique character. Every aspect seems to be subdued and restrained and gentle. There is no distinguishing individuality or trait. It is all too comfortable and middle-of-the road. It is hard to imagine one being either offended or wowed by this pour. It is a good but not noteworthy in any way. This is a product sold at a premium price that has, in my opinion, only a prosaic personality.
Worth a try but, in the end, not worth the cost.
