Old 55 Bottled in Bond Single Barrel Wheated Bourbon (100 Proof)
100 proof 4 years 3 months Bourbon Old 55 Distillery Newtown, IN 80% corn, 20% soft red winter wheat
Nose

Caramel and vanilla bomb; rich and inviting

Palate

Sweet corn and vanilla leading to white chocolate; hints of honeycomb cereal with milk; subtle cinnamon and allspice; clean distillate character; chocolate finish with wheat notes popping at the end

Finish

Toasted marshmallow; white chocolate sweetness; cinnamon stick notes reminiscent of cinnamon toothpicks

Very good
A refined and elegant bottled-in-bond bourbon with excellent balance between sweetness and spice, drinking older than its four years with care evident throughout.
