N: Shaving cream, mineral water, wet stone, concrete dust, hint of cherry cough syrup, soft toasted oak, grass and hay. Somewhere deep in the background are the usual suspects of caramel, vanilla, and sweet corn. P: Light vanilla, wheat spice, touch of cherry, dried stone fruit, oak and earth, faint caramel and sweet corn, dried hay, dried herbs, some mint. F: Semi-sweet dark chocolate, barrel spice, light roast coffee, fresh oak, and more lingering barrel spice. This is pretty standard fare for wheated bourbon. If the scarcity and hype were ever to die down and this was widely available, it could be a nice rotation sipper, a little change up from a rye diet - the quality is here to support that, but not much more than that. It certainly doesn't support any crazy secondary prices, not when Makers and Larceny are so widely available in many variations. This feels more subdued and subtle than those, more grown up maybe, but I'm splitting hairs. At the end of the day, this nothing more than just okay. _______________________ Please come join an unofficial Distiller community on Discord (now one whole year old!): https://discord.gg/4nfePCdyKM.
