About Traverse City Whiskey Co. Barrel Proof Wheat Whiskey

Traverse City Whiskey Co. Barrel Proof Straight Wheat Whiskey is an uncut, full cask strength wheat whiskey bottled at 113.6 proof (56.8% ABV) from Michigan's northernmost distillery. Wheat whiskeys are known for their smooth, approachable character, and this expression delivers a distinctive lightness and sweetness with notes of spiced honey butter, graham crackers, and florals. At six years old, it represents one of the few commercially available barrel proof wheat whiskeys on the market, making it special for enthusiasts seeking higher proof wheat expressions. This whiskey is ideal for those who appreciate the delicate sweetness of wheat-based spirits without the need for dilution, though it can be enjoyed with ice to find your preferred drinking experience.

Tasting Notes

👃 Nose

The nose presents Cracker Jacks and sweet caramel with mild proof notes adding fresh clove. There's a soft, slightly fruity aroma suggesting cherry pie filling alongside the dominant caramel character. Overall, it's a simple but delicious nose true to wheat whiskey expectations.

👅 Palate

The palate begins smooth with a slow burn across the front tongue, building caramel on the back palate and corners of the mouth. Mouthfeel is thin to medium-bodied and oily, with caramel taffy, vanilla custard, and fruity peppercorns providing complexity. The proof builds gradually without overwhelming the delicate wheat character.

✨ Finish

The finish features mild mint notes with a coating reminiscent of Werther's candy, delivering a short to medium-length conclusion. The oaky toffee sweetness lingers pleasantly on the palate.
