Review: Early Times Bottled-in-Bond is an often overlooked 1 liter bottle found near the bottom shelfs of most liquor stores. The whiskey itself has a respectable age statement and proof and a budget price. Good in cocktails, over ice or served neat, this bottle likely deserves a home in your bar. Cheers!

My Rating: Stock it!

-Shoot: Good enough to get you drunk

-Sip: Tasty enough to enjoy neat or on the rocks.

-Stock: I’d recommend keeping a bottle on hand.
