“Pipe Dream reserve lot — older stocks + more California own distillate, cut at 101”
Tasting notes
- nose
- caramel-apple pop, buttered bran muffin, honey stick, and pumpkin-pie oak

Mash bill

- Wheat3%
Four-grain reserve: 73% corn, 19% rye, 5% malted barley, 3% wheat (slight rye bump / wheat trim vs core Pipe Dream 73/18/5/4). Same multi-state blending thesis as Pipe Dream but skewed toward older stocks and a higher share of California own distillate.
