From previous reviews, you can tell that I’m a big fan of Barrell Craft
Spirits. It seems they can do no wrong when it comes to bourbon. Dovetail,
though, isn’t a bourbon. It’s a whisky that has plenty of barrel finishes,

Schragis from Barrell Craft Spirits on the podcast, he suggested this is a
great place to start if you’re new to BCS. I agree.

favorite phrase: “It’s a banger!”
