ASW Fiddler Big Green Egg Bourbon is a wheated bourbon whiskey created through a collaboration between ASW Distillery and Big Green Egg, both based in Atlanta, Georgia. Distilled in Indiana from a mash bill of 51% corn, 45% wheat and 4% malted barley, the whiskey is matured in Georgia for nearly seven years before being finished on hand-harvested Georgia white oak staves toasted or charred using a Big Green Egg ceramic cooker. The standard small-batch expression is bottled at 100 proof, while limited cask-strength releases are offered at higher proofs. The bourbon typically retails for about $80.

Lovely nose filled with powdered sugar, butterscotch, caramel candies and banana pudding
Lightly Oily viscosity that coats the palate nicely, with a lovely big butterscotch note that dominates the palate. Underneath that is a bit of wheaty funk, toasted oak and a zing of orange peel
The finish opens heavy on the wheat with big shredded wheat and leather notes, which transitions into coffee bean, pepper and a bit of vanilla
This is a very lovely bourbon. It’s sweet, pleasant and easy drinking, has a great balance of flavors between rich sweet notes and more savory wheat characteristics, and has a really nice, oily mouthfeel.
