Appearance- amber with many slow running legs. Coats the glass thick like honey.
Nose- Ripe berries with a musty, leathery smell, must likely from the corn. The nose is a bit muted, but give it a moment and it becomes floral with honeysuckle flowers.
Palate- thick and coating, I get honey covered berries, cream, and a bit of melon- musky like cantaloupe. Very little burn but a nice even finish.
Finish- medium, goes out on a taste of bit-o-honey
Overall- I like this offering alot. Sometimes a wheater can be kind of one-note. This is not. It is thick, luscious, and interesting. One of those bottles that one might say is "crushable." Where it fell short is on the nose. I had to search a bit to get a full understanding. I loved the musty note especially. This is a good bottle to add to the collection.
