Surprise find at Total Wine. Let’s see what we have here; says “Indiana” so like most Redemption products it’s MGP, it’s a 105 proof barrel pick, NAS but it’s “straight” so we have at least 4 years old, and non-chill filtered (yay!) Nose is straight up peanut butter. So much so that it makes any other review where I have detected heavy peanut on the nose pale by comparison. There’s some vanilla, honeysuckle, pomegranate, and ethanol in there as well, but peanut butter leads the way. On the palate, tastes just like it smells. Hate to be repetitive, but big peanut butter and vanilla flavors. Not complex at all, but what’s here is tasty. Finish and mouthfeel is where is where we have some youth showing through; finish is hot with considerable bite, and is pretty short. And it’s not really cinnamon or “baking spices”; just heat. While a flaw, it does help offset the sweetness a little. Some tea leaf after everything else fades. Mouthfeel is grainy AF. Is “sandpapery” a word? Well it is now. I liked this probably more than most will because I LOVE peanuty whiskeys. But like loving an ugly child, I see it’s flaws too. At $45, it’s not a rebuy because I can get this same profile at a higher proof for less money in the recent 5 yr Smooth Ambler Old Scout Total Wine pick. (Also MGP) If you don’t have access to one and enjoy peanuts in your whiskey, this might be worth a go.
