Copper color. Baked aromas and flavors of oatmeal with apples and caramel, pound cake, coconut-almond bar, and spiced cherry pie with a satiny, vibrant, dry-yet-fruity medium body and a peppery, compelling, medium-long finish. A charming Wheat Whiskey that comes alive with water; serve on the rocks or in highballs for a full-flavor experience.

As the name implies, wheat whiskeys have wheat as the principal grain used for distillation. Most of these are American made and are aged in oak and/or sherry barrels, giving them an amber color with a flavor profile of caramel, butterscotch, cashew and spiced raisin, among others. While this is not as large a category as many other types of whiskey, most of these wheat whiskeys are of very high quality, elegant, but often with a spicy, gutsy character. While they can be used for mixing in elegant cocktails, most are meant for sipping in a small snifter after dinner.
