What The Redwood Empire Colonel Armstrong Wheated Bourbon offers a exceptionally soft, velvety, and sweet flavor profile heavily influenced by its massive 30% wheat mash bill. The experience opens with bright, inviting aromas of brown sugar, orange zest, and sweet vanilla bean, which seamlessly transition on the palate into rich flavors of toasted honeycomb, cinnamon pastries, and creamy butterscotch. A subtle hint of nutmeg and rye spice appears toward the back of the palate, keeping the sweetness perfectly balanced. Because it is aged in the cool, humid climate of Northern California, it lacks any harsh or aggressive oak bitterness, culminating instead in a long, smooth, and pleasantly warming finish that tastes like fresh caramel-drizzled apples. |
 |
Why It highlights the art of hyper-regional blending by marrying historic, heavy-hitting midwestern distillates with Redwood Empire's own coastal California craft whiskey. Because the final blend is aged in Sonoma County's unique microclimate—where cool, humid ocean air and thick morning fog roll through the redwoods—the wood breathes differently than it would in the hot, dry rickhouses of Kentucky. This slow, foggy aging strips away any harsh oak bitterness, resulting in a smooth, deeply layered flavor profile that perfectly captures the spirit of the ancient 1,400-year-old giant redwood tree it is named after. |
