Redwood Empire Screaming Titan Wheated Bourbon

Nose is spicy and woody with ginger snaps, cedar, allspice, buttered popcorn, blackberry, and a yeasty, doughy note. Ethanol all but non-existent. Wow palate is nothing like the nose, with cake batter, vanilla icing, lime, chocolate malt, honey, oak, and an amazing strawberry note which kept me coming back for more. Everything is very “bright” with a hint of acidity, which is in no ya a bad thing. Finish is on the shorter side but nicely complex featuring oatmeal, ginger ale, mint, mild char, black pepper, and oak. Mouthfeel is medium-bodied and some youth finally becomes apparent in the form of some graininess which gives a little tongue tingle. This comes together nicely especially for what I can tell is a bit of a youngish wheater. Only the second Redwood Empire whiskey I’ve had and I’ve enjoyed both. At $79.99, it’s appropriately priced for the quality and probably worthy of a rebuy for its unique profile.

This is very good. Wish I could find another bottle

Kind of thin, not much flavor. Slightly sweet, but need to look for it. Not as good as Weller SR
