Tasting Notes…

Nose – Rambunctious and funky! Wow, the wheat whiskey in this blend really jumps out of the glass with bright layers of toasty oak, honey, and whitefruits. There’s a background kick of rye spice as well.

Taste – Sweet and soft. I wouldn’t have been surprised if this had been youthful and even a bit grainy, but it’s pleasantly desserty and sweet. Maple butter, sweet cream, a dash of berries, and even a nice layer of spice on the back.

Finish – Ultimately, this is sweet and lightly savory all in one, but does maintain a bit of spice as well.  It’s more well-rounded than I expected from the nose, and the finish is medium length and predominantly sweet.
