For us on the West Coast where Stagg is a hunt for sub $200 bottles, this Smokeye Hill is an $85 bottle on the shelf!!

My bottle is 134 proof. Hot for sure but very sweet and all the great intense high proof bourbon flavors shine through. I drank it neat but I may drop in some water in a pour tonight to see how it opens up.

I would agree it is smooth so the proof is manageable.

I ordered two more bottles from Remedy. Going to try and get another from Total Wine

Sounds excellent, Dave, glad it hits your palate so nicely. 134 proof is right up my alley too.

It's going to feel odd drinking some high octane bourbon tonight for the first time in a while. I'm sure I'll get used to it, though.
