Tasting Notes
A captivating bourbon that invites you to embark on a sensory journey, the Ben Holladay Soft Red Wheat Bourbon entices with its alluring aromas. Juicy notes of peach and apricot intertwine seamlessly with the warmth of oaken vanilla, creating an enticing prelude. On the palate, a velvety smoothness unfolds, revealing layers of creamy toffee and toasted oak, complemented by the earthy richness of roasted nuts and the sweet tanginess of dried berries. As the flavors linger, the finish enchants with a harmonious blend of woody spice, peppery nuances, and the comforting embrace of nutmeg, balanced by the luscious sweetness of prunes and redcurrants. Crafted with a unique mash bill of 73% corn, 15% wheat, and 12% barley, this bourbon showcases the distillery's artisanal mastery, spending a minimum of six years in Missouri white oak barrels before being bottled at a robust 50% ABV.
