Bourbon
Heaven Hill
Nose
Floral with honeysuckle, subtle oak, butterscotch, leather, apple, hay/grass in a good way. Sweet nose with baking spice notes. Not overpowering, subtle and delicate. No ethanol burn.
Palate
Syrupy and buttery with butterscotch. Honey, citrus, and apple on the back end. Tremendous mouthfeel. Cinnamon and oak spice on the finish. Cinnamon toothpick quality. High in the chest with a nice hug. Flavors become more pronounced as you continue drinking.
Finish
Cinnamon and oak spice that hangs around and continues to impress. Oak and cinnamon notes linger. High in the chest, pleasant heat without being harsh.
Overall Score
4.6 / 5
An exceptionally well-balanced wheated bourbon that compares favorably to premium age-stated bourbons, with delicate floral notes, buttery mouthfeel, and a refined finish.
