It's smoother, stronger - basically, it's every way a direct improvement of the old Old Crow.

Upgrade, instead, to McAfee's Benchmark from Buffalo Trace. Although a touch on the light side at 40%, this bourbon is rich and spicy, very enjoyable straight. In Lexington KY, it sells for $8.50/750 ml bottle (taxes included). At that price, I almost feel I should be arrested for shoplifting when I buy it.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09406667642392816349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-840930092789285091.post-2536773366699689032010-03-01T21:02:42.591-06:002010-03-01T21:02:42.591-06:00Went to a dance with my girlfriend (now wife) when...Went to a dance with my girlfriend (now wife) when she was still in college (I wasn't) in 1981, and smuggled in a pint of Old Crow. I remember it as being a respectable bourbon back then, which it hasn't been for some time since.<br /><br />Old Crow Reserve is an improvement, for sure.Sam Komlenichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05707612609314399024noreply@blogger.com
