"Wheated Bourbons are all about sweetness and no bitterness. Caramel runs through this like a river, with eddies of vanilla, mint , toast, mocha and pancake syrup. It has nice but not overpowering char and oak, a little cinnamon and raspberry, blackberry and raisin."

Tasting Notes
Colour
Sumptuous caramel-amber with coppery undertones and honey-gold highlights.
Nose
Caramel pours through the aroma like honeyed syrup, brightened by vanilla and a hint of mint. Toasted oak and a whisper of mocha anchor the sweetness, while pancake-syrup richness glows in the background. Cinnamon threads through, with ripe raspberry, blackberry and raisin lending berry-bright lift and a soft, inviting char.
Palate
Sweet and unburdened by bitterness, the palate pours caramel like a river, braided with vanilla, mint and toast. Mocha and pancake syrup mingle with a gentle char and oak, while cinnamon, raspberry, blackberry and raisin linger.
Finish
Sweet, caramel-kissed finish that glides long and smooth, with vanilla and toasted oak warming the palate. Mocha and pancake syrup recede into cinnamon-spiced fruit—raspberry, blackberry and raisin—drifting on a minty breeze, leaving a silky, lingering sweetness that lasts well after the last sip.
