We Tried This Premade Old Fashioned And Here's What Our Panel Said

"Strong bourbon aroma as soon as you open the bottle which was expected at 37% ABV that somewhat overpowers the other fragrances you'd normally find in an OF."

"Most of the traditional flavors are present and accounted for, but a tad on the muted side as they struggle to fight through the heavy presence of the feisty (but tasty) bourbon."

"Good color and modest Old Fashioned flavors. The bourbon mellows out and the overall essence of the cocktail improves in a glass over ice and given a little bit of time. Makes for a good sipping cocktail."

"I'd call this an Old Fashioned Light in terms of the range and robustness of its flavors outside of the bourbon, but the whiskey kick itself is nice and well suited for those who enjoy their cocktails on the stronger side."

More From Our Review Of This Costco Old Fashioned

While this ready-to-drink Old Fashioned is on the strong side when it comes to the bourbon but light on some of the other complementary flavors, it's still a great option for entertaining and a very good value with a one liter bottle selling for under $18 at the time of this review.

The bold bourbon kick and subtler citrus and sweet components make this a perfect premade cocktail to dress up on your own. Pour over ice in to your favorite tumbler, add a Maraschino cherry, then zest with a twist of orange peel to improve those sweet and citrusy supporting cast members, while also balancing out some of the spicy bourbon's bite.
