First time ever seeing this bottle and decided to try something new. Enjoying neat. Nose - very odd nose. Not enjoyable at all. Smells floral and like old soggy fruit. Very bitter and pungent. Taste - this is more enjoyable than the nose but still something just off here. It tastes very very ripe, light caramel, bitter, short finish. Disappointed Overall - the toasted wheat grabbed my attention in this inexpensive bottle, but it just doesn’t work here at all. I rarely say this about bourbon but this is almost a throw away. Will definitely be a mixer. One of the very very few bourbons out there that I think stink. The bottle is nice but the label looks cheap. Only points I can give here are its cheap on the price scale and has a Carmel flavor to it.

Smooth sweet caramel/toffee/vanilla wheat whiskey. An employee at an ABC recommended it and told me it’s a enjoyable weekday sipper and I think that is accurate. The after taste is very good as it lingers. Take this one slow the taste changes subtly with each sip.
It just tastes very youthful to me. Compared to other wheated stuff it just doesn't hold up. For me I almost smell pennies on the nose for some reason. Literally the worst bottle I have right now. Redemption Wheated is way better.
