Review:

Bad Wine Reviews loyalist, Caleb Gibson of Gibby’s Bottle Shop in South Carolina, graced me with this lil' treat because I straight up TOOK CARE OF A PROBLEM FOR HIM WITH SOME CONCRETE YA KNOW...he was having foundation problems.

This is somehow becoming a hard-to-get item because it is bourbon, it is 2019 and it has a catchy name. Sweet Wheat. Shockingly this is a wheated bourbon with no known mashbill and is allegedly 8 years old. For other really boring shit please google Lemon Party.

In da nose I got cherries stuffed inside a cherry pie on top of a cherry tree. There's a little cherry in it. Other than that I got some clementines and a nice bit of custard. In da mouf I got a very potent licorice scent followed by some Pine Sol with a finish of cream.

Overall this was a bit of a letdown based on everything I've heard. The nose was quite unique and I can absolutely understand the "Sweet Wheat" name there but the taste was more confusing than Megan Rapinoe's economics class. The finish fizzled faster than America's interest in women's soccer and I'm just meh about it. If you can find at retail and you want to try something unique, however, then get at it.
