Whiskey Review: Bainbridge Battle Point Organic Wheat Whiskey

The initial sip is comforting and luscious on the mouth, giving off notes of honey and a hint of oloroso sherry. Cinnamon and clove bring a pleasant dryness, working harmoniously to create a profile reminiscent of a heavily buttered slice of banana walnut bread. The finish is warm and dominated by tones of salted peanut brittle and chewy maple candy, which lingers on the palate barely past average length. Final Thoughts & Score: There’s a welcoming approachability to this whiskey on multiple fronts, from the conceptual underpinnings to the soft, sweet palate with just the right amount of spice. This would be a great whiskey to drink after dinner as dessert, or simply for when you don’t want to think too much about the fact that you’re drinking whiskey. Unless you can handle such a heavy, viscous-bodied whiskey, I (personally) couldn’t imagine this being a daily casual dram.
