Redemption Wheated Bourbon

I enjoy the wheated by Redemption. Chin chimney chin churrah!

Warm but not hot finish. Smooth to my taste. Vanilla, sweet notes, swear I taste chocolate brownie with walnuts. Overall not a bad sip.

Spicy vanilla and slightly sweet.

Very consistent and mellow wheated bourbon that has a silky mouthfeel of vanilla, chocolate chips, and caramel for a better tomorrow.

Nose has some mixed berry, vanilla, and a leafy, cooking herb note (oregano? sage? basil?) A disappointing amount of ethanol given the mid-ish proof. Palate is on the lighter side with overripe cherry, sour apple, salt water taffy, caramel, and milk chocolate. Finish comes in hot and short, starting with oak and walnut, and ending with tons of white pepper. The peppery finish is a little out of place for the fruity profile, your taste buds want a sweeter heat like a cinnamon. Mouthfeel is silky. Overall I’d say that this is a young wheater that is quite “meh”; nothing memorable here. At $44 it’s right smack dab in the middle in price range as well, so it’s neither under or overpriced. This whiskey is kind of the “white bread” of whiskies. It’s just sort of there. Falls short of rebuy status for me.

Very strong/spicy up front, mellow, warm finish
