Nose: orange cake, Almond Joy, vanilla bean, wheat muffin, black jack (burnt sugar), honey roasted almonds, black tea, clove, and fresh cut cedar
Palate/Texture/Mouthfeel: medium-bodied, creamy and somewhat oily core with orange citrus and vanilla extract notes around its edges
Finish: medium-long loaded with bright orange cream, almond bitterness, and well-integrated barrel spice (cardamon, clove, and orange zest)
Summary: Time spent in barrel really shows up and allows this to unfold and become complex. Lots of spice gained in the process. Young wheaters can be super sweet, but this expression gives you so much more to chew on.
Barrel #5083234
