    Great experience

    This is the 2nd time that I have ordered from Bourbon Central and both times were absolutely fabulous. I was able to find the bourbon that I wanted at a reasonable price. The orders were delivered within 3-5 days of placing the order and the care taken to pack the bottles and the box to ensure the bourbon traveled safely was exceptional.
