Woodford Reserve Kentucky Straight Wheat Whiskey
90.4 proof 4–6 years Wheat Whiskey Woodford Reserve Versailles, KY $39 Primarily wheat with malted grain

Light cherry and cinnamon with a hint of oak; moderate ethanol presence on the first nosing.

Soft, sweet upfront with light cherry hard candy and green apple candy notes; cinnamon spice with a thin, watery mouthfeel; light chocolate on the back end with dry, tannic oak.

Short to medium finish; dry with lingering barrel character and a touch of spice; sweetness fades quickly into dryness.

Decent
A light, approachable wheat whiskey with fruit-forward character and a thinner body that finishes a bit shorter than expected.
