Ben Holladay Soft Red Wheat Bourbon - Bottled in Bond
The Holladay distillery in Weston, Missouri uses a mash bill of 73% corn, 15% wheat, and 12% barley to produce this bourbon. By switching out the more common use of rye for wheat, distillers are able to achieve a notably soft, smooth profile. The whiskey is distilled, aged, and bottled on-site, spending a minimum of six years in Missouri white oak barrels before it's released at 50% ABV.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Juicy layers of peach and apricot, oaken vanilla, buttery char, and cinnamon snaps.
Palate
Creamy toffee and toasted oak open the way for roasted nuts, dried berries, and vanilla.
Finish
Warming notes of woody spice, with pepper and nutmeg balanced by sweet prunes and redcurrants.
