Reviewed July 2020Copper in the glass, this wheated Bourbon offers allspice and cola aromas. The first sips are nutty and a touch drying, leading into hints of vanilla wafer and butterscotch, finishing with ginger and clove sparks. *Best Buy* (KN)

Whisky Advocate
Lots of dried fruit, figs, and caramel lead off this bold but balanced bourbon, as dark berry fruits smack of sweet crème de cassis on the palate. There’s a good bit of spice here, like hot and spicy peanuts, that meets the sweet fruit and vanilla. Shows great length and nice polish on the finish with its dusty oak and cocoa. (JL, Fall 2018)
Notes
Heaven Hill has just released their answer to the famous wheated bourbons that are so sought after now. From one of the few still readily available on today's ultra-hot bourbon market, and at 92 proof, it's got a bit more pop than Maker's, while maintaining more creaminess and less of the big, sweet wood that characterizes the Weller releases. It makes another fine addition to the $25-and-under whiskey club which Heaven Hill excels in. Creamy, supple, balanced and well-made. What else could you ask for?
