  • I imagine it would be yummy mixed into an adult milkshake with pumpkin and caramel, or paired with some warm apple cider and sweet pumpkin pie spices.

  • The finish is more astringent, with pistachio shells, bitter baking chocolate, barrel char, cedar wood, and menthol.

  • For those who are interested in trying a wheat whiskey, don't expect a whiskey that tastes as unique as you might like it to be.

  • On the whole, it’s a fun addition to the Woodford line that definitely showcases its “fruitier” side.

  • There's a bit going on here and all of it is pleasant. Woodford isn't typically the place that one looks for a wheated whiskey, but this could duke it out with other wheated favorites like OWA and Bernheim with ease.

House Review
  • Nose:

    Honey, pears, dole fruit syrup and other lively, fruity sweets.

  • Taste:

    Sweet apple crisp, honey, and some cinnamon. Light, fruity, with a hint of cream and clove.

  • Finish:

    Short finish, sweet once again with peach rings, honey, a hint of cocoa and some drying oak.

  • Overall:

    There's a bit going on here and all of it is pleasant. Woodford isn't typically the place that one looks for a wheated whiskey, but this could duke it out with other wheated favorites like OWA and Bernheim with ease.
