[Bib & Tucker](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-classic-six) perfectly balances the captivating aroma, smooth taste, and warm finish of its award-winning small-batch bourbon whiskey. Inspired by the heydays of the 1880s, the six-year-old, the 10-year-old, and the [12-year-old small-batch bourbon whiskey](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/12yearold-bourbon-whiskey) communicate luxury and refinement.

Bib & Tucker focus on creating a spirit with "unparalleled smoothness." The aroma of the six-year-old batch, for instance, lures the senses in with a strong scent of vanilla and sweet hay, complicated by subtle accents of sandalwood and mace. The taste of the bourbon provides a hint of pecan pie sweetness, which is combined with the balanced chestnut finish to produce a warm and rich sensation.

Most recently, in 2020, Bib & Tucker was recognized with some awards for its high-quality, luxurious beverage. The Six-Year-Old Small Batch Bourbon Whiskey was a finalist for the 2020 Ultimate Spirits Challenge and won a Gold Medal at the San Diego Wine & Spirits Challenge. Its [10-Year-Old Batch](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/10year-bourbon), on the other hand, was awarded a Double Gold Medal at the 2020 San Francisco World Spirits Competition.
