Taste: Light and mellow. This is fairly two dimensional, if I didn't know better I would think the proof was closer to 80, this has the smoothness and the muted profile of a whiskey of a lower proof. There is a light caramel and some vanilla. A touch of brown sugar. More vanilla on the finish and the oak keeps things dry.
Conclusion: This is easy drinking and pleasant. This is a good summer whiskey, not too bold but fun to sip. There are a lot of bourbons and ryes I would rather have over this wheat whiskey but it's uniqueness as a wheat whiskey is worth something and for that reason I'm glad I have my bottle. This is a whiskey that I enjoyed more for educational reasons than pure sipping. This would fit nicely in a tasting as an educational element to highlight the effect of wheat in a bourbon or as a counterpoint to a rye.
