December 14, 2021 (edited January 20, 2022)
Batch 21-05
Nose: vanilla, molasses, peanut butter, cinnamon, maybe some clove?, Slight hint of dark ripe fruit
Palate: oak up front, dominant vanilla bean, caramel, sweet cinnamon, ripe berries, freshly baked bread bread.
Finish: more of maker's vanilla, brown sugar, baking spices, a lingering spicy oak, something fruity I can't quite make out.
A sleeper bourbon for sure at this price, bold, complex, and available nearly everywhere it takes the classic makers mark wheated profile and adds a new depth of flavors and a chewy thick feel that is missing from the original. If you like to actually drink wheated bourbon and not just hunt overpriced and impossible to find btac this is a great buy.
