Old Elk 7-Year Wheat Whiskey 113.4 Proof Barrel #6878 - Selected by Bourbon Community Roundtable

Age: 7-Years old Proof: 113.4 Proof Mash bill: 96/4 Wheat/Malted Barley Source: MGPi Tasting Notes: Nose is sweet and subtle. There’s caramel, floral undertones, and some citrus. The citrus pulls into the palate, where cinnamon and baking spices also come out. There's some toasted oak in there, which comes across almost briny. Caramel sweetness returns as the whiskey fades, along with baking spices and cinnamon again. It's a long lasting, memorable ending. Bottle count: 192 bottles About the product: Old Elk is a new wave of distillers. They started by sourcing from MGP. They brought on Master Distiller, Greg Metze, as a consultant. Then, Greg moved on from MGP and joined Old Elk full-time as their Master Distiller. They now have a mix of sourced and distilled products. Old Elk produces around 150 barrels a year at their Fort Collins, CO location.
