A bourbon, by law, must be at least 51% corn. In the case of Bernheim, wheat is the grain of choice. Because of this, Bernheim is a sweet, mild whiskey that gives up a sweet vanilla with undertones of floral and fruit in the nose and palate. Bernheim is 90 proof, yet there's no alcohol burn. This whiskey is not overly complex but it is enjoyable. If you are looking try whiskey and are looking for something that's easy to drink, this is it. The price point of ~$30 makes it a little high compared to other whiskeys of comparable quality.
