Country: USA

Region: Iowa

Type: Wheat Whiskey

Bottler: Lost Lantern Whiskey

ABV: 61.6%

Score: 91 Points

Iowa’s Cedar Ridge Distillery produces several different styles of whiskey, and Lost Lantern selected a wheat whiskey to bottle for their Spring 2024 collection. The nose has touches of freshly-baked wheat bread, honey, dark chocolate, and dried fruits. The taste is thick and chewy with black peppercorns balanced by honey, linseed oil, and dark chocolate. The finish is long, dry, and subtle. (March, 2024)
