Review #: 445
Description: Rolling K (1990)
Spirit: Bourbon
Background: This is a bottle of Rolling K bourbon. Produced at the Old Crow distillery, this was a brand that Beam acquired with National Distiller’s. This bottle had a 90 date stamp so likely this is ND distillate.

Would I buy a bottle? Maybe auction prices for this aren’t super crazy since it’s an obscure brand? Who am I kidding though.
Thoughts: Interesting where the Anderson Club I just had I said shows how lots of dusties are oakier and more balanced in flavor, because this is definitely got that sweeter note. It has great mouth feel for 40%. Not super complex but very tasty
