This is an interesting offering. 100 proof. Half is a high rye bourbon 52C, 44R 4MB contract distilled by MGP. The other half is Wheat Wiskey 83W, 12C 5MB. No age statement but really dark. Ultra small batches of 6-10 barrels. Don't know where it was aged. This is a neck pour. Very dark copper in color with slow forming legs. Shy nose but typical barrel aromas show up first. Caramel morphing to vanilla then a touch of nutmeg and some damp grass way back there. Very little alcohol. The palate opens with creme brulee but it is slow to develop. There's a touch of green apple and a slightly bitter edge suggesting some unresolved alcohol. The color says 8-10 years but that bitter edge says more likely 4. I am going to describe the finish as crisp and clean and that green apple shows up for a while. I like this one and it is fairly priced. Next time I will try their straight bourbon

On the nose there are chocolate, caramel, melon, black pepper, cherry, corn and oak. Sweet on the palate; flavors of corn, caramel, cherry, cinnamon, black pepper and vanilla.
Found it enjoyable, nice flavors. Sweet, but with a nice kick. Vanilla, caramel notes. Cube made it nice and smooth.
Tastes like boiled cabbage. Has an astringency that never goes away. Not sure what else to say about this.
Hot, long lasting flavor Caramel up front Very peppery
A lot of cherry. Smooth. Good amount of burn
