Wilderness Trail Bottled in Bond Small Batch Bourbon (Wheated Bourbon)

Nose: maple, cherry, cinnamon, apples. Palate is soft but not overly sweet for a wheated bourbon. Oak, vanilla, and baking spices. Finish is short.

Pretty smooth, sweet, leather, subtle oak

Not fan

I have a SiB pick and get really heavy barn from that bottle. On this bottle get a bit of barn on the nose, but the taste and finish is much more traditional. Wouldn’t turn down another pour but doesn’t Stan out enough to buy.

Nose: Brown sugar, caramel, Toffee immediately up front, followed by vanilla, wood Taste: Smooth....can't even tell it's 100 proof

One of the four expressions from Wilderness Trail that followed us home from Kentucky! It was a favorite at a recent family cookout, with good reason. This is a very nice bourbon. Sweet on the nose and palate, and a smooth, medium length hug. Medium to heavy mouthfeel as well, which is very pleasing. This is better than the rye version in my opinion. Likely something I’ll re-purchase; fairly soon given it’s popularity at the cookout!

Nose: Fresh bale of hay funk with some caramel and fruit sweetness Pallet: caramel early gives way to a charred oak. Some subtle fruitiness . The charred oak lingers on the finish with some black pepper spice
