Evan Williams Bourbon Whiskey (1000ml)

The core expression in the Evan Williams family of bourbons is unofficially referred to as 'Black Label'. The label prominently notes Williams as “Kentucky’s 1st Distiller,” with the company stating that the bourbon is “named after Evan Williams, who opened Kentucky’s First Distillery along the banks of the Ohio River in 1783, it’s aged far longer than required by law” - four years, to be exact. According to the boys at breakingbourbon.com, this delivers everything consumers should want out of a Bourbon: "...affordable, accessible, and a classic bourbon flavour profile." 43% Alc./Vol.
Other reviews... the color is noticeably dark for a younger, less than 8 year old product like this. The nose takes it a step forward with burnt brown sugar, fruit, and cinnamon. But the palate reveals its youth with a mouthful of grains and acidity. However, it’s saved by final notes of honey, vanilla, caramel, soft oak, and coconut. A short finish disappoints, but this is a cocktail or cola contender. 84 points - whiskyadvocate.com, reviewed by: Fred Minnick 2018

...Evan Williams Black Label is as standard a representation of bourbon as they come. The nose may be on the lighter side, however, the palate and finish help to deliver an average, but completely acceptable sip. This is a bourbon that will turn no heads or be heaped with praise, but it is one that makes people feel like they want to pour out their glass either. Black Label is one of the best values around for under $20, despite delivering an average pour. If you’re just getting into bourbon or you’ve been drinking it for 40 years, Black Label deserves a spot in your basket the next time you go to the liquor store. It’s a solid reminder that bourbon is meant to be both accessible both in allocation and in price, and that you don’t need to have a fancy backstory to deliver an acceptable sip. - breakingbourbon.com
