πŸ“ Tasting Notes

πŸ‘ƒ Nose

Elegant aromas of crème brûlée, vanilla extract, and toasted wheat bread greet the nose with remarkable finesse. Delicate floral notes of honeysuckle blend with dried orchard fruits, maple syrup, and polished oak.

πŸ‘… Palate

Silky and refined with pronounced notes of vanilla cream, caramel, and honey butter, supported by the signature wheated smoothness. Hints of orange marmalade, roasted nuts, and gentle oak spices create exceptional balance and depth.

πŸ”₯ Finish

Exceptionally long, gentle finish with persistent vanilla, caramel, and soft oak that lingers beautifully without heat.

πŸ₯ƒ How to Enjoy

Recommended
πŸ₯ƒ
Neat

The purist's choice. Full oak, vanilla, and caramel come through at room temperature with no dilution.

🧊
On the Rocks

A single large cube slows dilution and tames heat on high-proof pours. Wheated bourbons are especially good this way.

πŸ’§
With Water

On 100+ proof bottles, a few drops settle the alcohol burn and let the grain and spice breathe.

πŸ’‘ High-proof and single barrel releases shine neat. Save the rocks for everyday-sipper bourbons.
