Top 50 Spirits 2011, Wine Enthusiast:

Bernheim Original 7 Year Old is  first truly new American Whiskey to be introduced in many generations. Whereas others contain primarily corn, barley, or rye, Bernheim is the only type of straight whiskey which uses soft winter wheat.

Bernheim Original 7 Year Old is a small-batch whiskey, and is one of the few 'straight wheat' whiskeys out there. The flavours are brisk and restrained, with leather and tobacco tones and a clean citrus and vanilla finish.

Finish: Long and slightly dry with toasty spices.
