Tasting Notes

A true trailblazer in the world of whiskey, Bernheim Original captivates the senses with its unique wheat-based character. Pouring into the glass, an inviting aroma unfolds, reminiscent of a cozy bakery – buttered toast mingles with hints of spice and a delightful note of morello cherries. On the palate, it embraces you with a delightful sweetness, akin to freshly baked buns, complemented by stewed fruit flavors and a nutty undertone that evokes nostalgic childhood treats. As the whiskey lingers, a delicate touch of spearmint emerges, adding a refreshing twist. The finish is long and slightly dry, with toasty spices leaving a lasting impression. Aged for seven years, Bernheim Original is a true pioneer in the craft of wheat whiskey, offering a unique and captivating experience with every sip.
