The oldest wheat whiskey Heaven Hill has released so far, this well-aged gentleman is musty and rustic on the nose, with aged leather, cracked pepper, and a subdued cherry sweetness. The palate is livelier, with more pepper, apple cider, cinnamon sugar, and pound cake. A worthy addition to Heaven Hill’s annual Heritage Collection, this whiskey’s finish lasts long and pops with cherry cola, raisins, and sweet vanilla cream.
