his time around, Vinnie, Heisey, and Albert are putting three bottles to the test without knowing what's in the glass: Henry McKenna 10 Year Bottled-in-Bond Single Barrel, Jack Daniel’s Single Barrel, and Knob Creek 12 Year.They taste through all three, talk about what they're getting on the nose and palate, and try to figure out which bourbon is which.
