"Of course I m going to recommend this bottle. There s no situation where a bottle like this wouldn t come in handy. You don t even have to worry about the cork falling apart if you decide to store it for 10 or 20 years because it s a screwcap." - The Bourbon Culture
"Full flavored but still smooth, this sweet tasting BiB bourbon won t wow you, but offers enough versatility to make it a mainstay in any home bar" - Nick Beiter, Breaking Bourbon
"This is tough to get my head around, but in a good way. Just when I think I have a handle on this, it shifts into a different aroma or flavor entirely. There s a breadth here that is beyond that of the Black Label, but also a tension that energizes this and makes it a great deal more fun to taste." - Taylor, Malt Review
"It s yet another excellent budget bourbon from Heaven Hill, and you may end up really liking it too. I also prefer this to other budget favorites such as Wild Turkey 101 and Old Grand Dad 114." - Alex, The Whiskey Shelf
"I found myself remarking that this is just a damn solid bourbon while drinking it neat and was similarly pleased when using it to make cocktails. It truly checks all of the boxes that you d hope a budget-minded bourbon would and possibly exceeds an expectation or two." - The Whiskey Ramble
"This is a fantastic value whiskey that punches above its weight. I would happily sit and drink this in almost any setting, with a set it and forget it profile that is instantly reminiscent of a classic bourbon profile." - The Whisky Study
"Normally when I do the under $20 bottle reviews, it s a one-and-done kind of deal. I m on my sixth bottle of Evan Williams Bottle-In-Bond. It s my new go to budget whiskey and it s readily available." - Bourbon Banter
