Oak & Eden Small Batch Wheat & Honey (Batch B001), 45%
Price: ● Issue: Winter 2022 ● Reviewer: Ted Simmons ● Category: Bourbon/Tennessee Whiskey
A wheated bourbon that’s been bottled with a honey-soaked oak spire inside. The nose is rustic and green, showing burlap, buttered popcorn, green banana, and honey bun. Add water, and toasted marshmallow and dried leaves emerge, like sitting around a campfire on an autumn evening. On the palate, lemon-lime soda, creamy banana pudding, and a nice balanced sweetness. Salted peanuts and dried leaves round out the finish.
