Willett Family Estate Jack Rose - OG Wheat 2 Private Barrel Selection 4 Year Old, New Charred White Oak Cask, Cask #9830, 60.2%

The caramel and brown sugar alongside warm baking spices sound inviting, with charred oak giving the palate a firmer edge. The persistent warmth and dry, tannic finish may not suit everyone, but there’s plenty of character here.
