Tonight’s Dram: Caribou Crossing 🥃
Canada’s answer to the single barrel game — and it comes dressed to impress.
Nose: Light but inviting — vanilla, soft oak, and a hint of maple sweetness.
Palate: Smooth and easy-drinking. Caramel, butterscotch, and a touch of fruit. Not overly complex, but well-balanced and clean.
Finish: Short to medium, with soft spice and a lingering sweetness.
Verdict: A beautiful bottle and a solid pour. If you’re into easygoing sippers with just enough character, this one’s worth a spot on the shelf.

Sweet Wheat is suuuuuch an easy drinker. Not too deep in complexity, sweet (duh) and as I’m drinking this after dinner it’s giving serious banana bread vibes. The week ain’t over yet!
Also from the background, Bruce approves. Cheers, y’all!

**NEW BOURBON REVIEW**
I’ve had this bottle sitting on the shelf for a while now. Over time I took sips here and there but never really cared much for it.
After a few months of developing my palate, I decided to reintroduce myself to it. This bottle isn’t half bad 👌🏾 it’s a sour mash but has some delivery on the flavor.
👃🏾: ripe fruit, caramel, vanilla, with oak and nuts
👅: caramel, peppery spice, with lingering oak and sour walnuts on the finish
Overall I give this bottle a 7.8/10 (nose- 8.2, palate- 7.5, finish- 8.8, price- 7.0). Not bad at all, but I wouldn’t consider it an everyday pour. Msrp isn’t bad at $60 but I have bottles at the same or lower price points that drink a bit better. Not bad to have on your shelf though 😎🥃
