An Exceptional Expression of Craft and Elegance
Middle West Spirits Oloroso Wheat Whiskey Double Cask Collection is a luxurious whiskey that combines the delicate softness of Ohio-grown soft red winter wheat with the bold complexity of Oloroso Sherry casks. Initially aged for a minimum of five years in toasted and charred American white oak barrels, the whiskey is then finished in Oloroso Sherry casks, which impart rich, nutty notes and a depth of flavor rarely found in wheat whiskeys. Bottled at a powerful 123.72 proof, this whiskey is a robust and complex experience for discerning palates.
