BlueKitchen.net Review:
After hearing its praises on the message board, I finally got my local liquor store to wrangle me up a bottle...and it was well worth the trouble. Although Barton is most noted for some bottom of the heap sewer swill (Ten High, Fleischmann's) this is certainly at the top of their product list. This is an extremely bold bourbon...rich and velvety. My girlfriend, who usually scoffs at anything over 90 proof, belted this one back and gave no sign of "whiskey face." Amazingly smooth with a higher proof, 1792 is a worthy entry on this list.
