Laws Centennial Wheat Whiskey Finished in Curacao Casks

A spectacular, highly innovative limited release from Colorado's acclaimed Laws Whiskey House! This unique "Experiential Barrel" expression starts with their exceptional straight wheat whiskey, which is crafted from a terroir-driven mash bill of 100% Soft White Centennial Spring Wheat (50% raw and 50% malted) grown at high altitudes in Colorado. After aging for over four years in new, heavily charred 53-gallon oak barrels, it is transferred into 185-liter French oak casks that previously held sweet, citrusy Curaçao liqueur for a secondary maturation. Bottled at 95 proof (47.5% ABV), this beautiful finishing process perfectly accentuates the soft, floral nature of the wheat, resulting in a wildly complex and deeply layered sipping experience.

NOSE

Highly aromatic, bright, and inviting. Beautiful, distinct aromas of orange flower blossoms, sweet citrus peel, honey, and a gentle dusting of baking spice.

PALATE

Smooth, creamy, and wonderfully complex. A lush wave of creamy orange and sweet candied ginger gradually gives way to deeper, earthy notes of dry leather, sarsaparilla, vanilla bean, and warm cardamom.

FINISH

Long, elegant, and deeply satisfying, leaving a unique, lingering trail of soft spice, sweet citrus, and toasted oak.
