Anybody have the lowdown on this bourbon.
It's called Rare Perfection Bourbon and comes in varieties 21 23 25 YR.
No idea about this one.
Can someone help?


Thank you,

Frank

May be for the Japanese market only. I've never heard of it. Though if you look at the "How Old Is Too Old" thread, you'll see the opinion that at that age, most of what you'll taste is tannin. Also, the difference between a 21 and a 25 is mostly going to be coincidental differences in the barrels selected, not a per se difference based on two or four years of additional aging.

Thank you

Thank you for the reply.
The J-Market has many rare, eclectic, and just plain odd offerings.
I've seen this one offered on e-bay, but there is no information
beyond price.

Thanks Again,

Frank
