This is not a "taste", but rather me putting out a call... To those who've had this, it seems from the reviews here that it has underwhelmed. Is this worth a try for someone who likes wheated bourbon? I've had the Trader Joe's straight bourbon, and it was actually not bad at all. If this Winter Wheat is AS good, then I'd give it a try. Thanks.
I found this disappointing. A strong flavor of alcohol and light on the usual bourbon flavors. Best as a mixer. Trader Joe's other label bourbon is less expensive and more enjoyable in my opinion.
Tried neat. On the nares I get wheat, wheat, and more wheat. Nothing else. On the palate it’s sweet with hints of corn, wheat, and nothing else. Hm, down the drain….
It's simple. After resting for a month after my first tasting, it's smoothed out considerably. It's a solid mixer, and at 42% gets the job done fine.
Strong tobacco or raisin notes. Very thin and the finish was not pleasant. Mixing into an Old Fashioned caused it to be bearable but not pleasant.
although it doesn't pack any robust and exciting flavors, it is so smooth and tasty that everyone who enjoys bourbon should give this a go.
