Distilled from a mash bill of 20% MN winter wheat. And we all know that anything that can survive a MN winter is pretty badass. |

Hand-Selected at J. Carver Distillery by Two Souls Spirits (James) at 9:30am on a glorious March morning. The aftermath (afternoon and evening) was less glorious, but absolutely worth it. |

Classic wheater swag with an extra shot of mature bravado - orange spice and creamy vanilla saunter in while roasted coconut, dry oak, and dense char follow in silent judgment. |
Proud to be putting Minnesota craft spirits on the map, J. Carver Distillery has been producing award winning bourbons, ryes, and wheat whiskey since its inception in 2012. The wheated bourbon whiskey in this bottle is not only one of oldest barrels from their rickhouse, but also one of the oldest barrels we have released to date. Rich with old-school wheater aromas and flavors, this is a bottle that demands your attention - and a backup (or two). Cheers!
Tasting Notes: Dark orange spice, creamy burnt caramel, vanilla creme brulee, long dry oak and char finish.
