Why this is here, not in the Journal
The Hound poured this bottle but did not log a proper tasting note in the moment. The room was busy. The night kept moving. What you see below are the label facts the Hound can verify — nothing else. No secondhand tasting note. No reviewer aggregation. The verdict stays open until the Hound gets a second pour.
From the label
- 100 proof — bottled-in-bond

Tell the Hound
If you poured this bottle with notes in hand, send the impressions. Reader notes are never published as the Hound's own — they inform the writeup when the second pour lands.
Want the next one before it posts?
The Hound sends shadow invites to the list 24–48 hours before the public field note goes up. If you read this after 6 PM, that bottle is probably gone.
