A definite step up from the T & S Reserve. The heirloom wheat gives it a more consistent sweetness throughout and a thicker mouthfeel. Just a hint of smoke and old leather with a mild finish. Their website seems to target this one to women looking to get into the whiskey world with the tag line "a kinder spirit". I can definitely see this one being a good change of pace in traditional whiskey cocktails. As a note to the original review, I've purchased 2 bottles and have had no issues with sediment.
About this bottle
Master Distiller Troy Ball is serious about the rare heirloom Turkey Red Wheat and the white corn she uses in all her whiskeys. This North Carolina distillery’s mantra is “White corn for families, yellow corn for animals.” There’s no age statement and not a whole lot of information available about how long this Blonde Whiskey is aged, but its name is appropriate, as this is a light-colored product.
