The nose opens up with a traditional wheated bourbon, which for me involves a red fruit note. Sometimes I get cherry or raspberry but for this one almost feels more in the direction of jelly. I also pick up sweet oak on the nose. I definitely think it drinks its proof. All of the same notes are there but turned up quite a bit. There is a lot of richness and depth to this whiskey. The more I sip this whiskey, the more approachable this whiskey becomes without compromising flavor. The finish is long and provides a great experience. Overall, it’s an excellent expression that highlights Holladay’s craftsmanship and dedication to quality. I really enjoyed this one!
