Nose is rich with lots of vanilla and spice.   The high abv masks some of the flavor on the first few sips, but then a full wheaty profile emerges with more vanilla and ample sweetness.   The finish, however becomes dry, woody, and a bit bitter and detracts from the overall experience.   The are other wheated bourbons around this age and price range I'd go to first.
