Each Blood Oath Pact features a unique blend of different aged bourbons, and their two most recent releases have also featured barrel finishes. Overall Pact No. 6 with its Cognac finish is a flavorful barrel finished bourbon that drinks easy thanks to its sweet palate. Its Cognac finish is surprisingly inoffensive, well integrated, and long lasting. A bit more intensity all around would have made this truly shine, but nevertheless it’s a well-crafted whiskey.
