“Here's to clearing up our sinuses”

We're big fans of 1792 Small Batch, so we were excited to get our hands on a SiB expression.

The 1792 brand makes great bourbon and always seems to be a crowd favorite. Unfortunately for us we were both dealing with a cold and were a bit stuffed up. So in place of nasal spray we gave the 1792 SiB a smell and taste test to help clear us up. We were both huge fans of this bourbon and highly recommend buying and giving this one a try.
