The Bruery White Chocolate

This “White Chocolate” is the result of an interesting twist on a barrel-aged wheat wine (note) called White Oak Sap.

Here's how it's made.

First, White Oak Sap is put into bourbon barrels and aged for nearly a year.

Later, to perfect the rich flavor created by this process, they added cacao nibs and fresh vanilla beans sourced from TCHO (Note 2), a popular chocolatier in San Francisco, to create a mellow flavor that is reminiscent of white chocolate.

The liquid is a slightly cloudy amber color with white bubbles on top.

Aromas of white chocolate and oak.

The flavor is rich, born from further barrel aging, with aromas of coconut, honey, caramel, vanilla, oak, and bourbon, and a sweet, gentle finish reminiscent of white chocolate, making it a luscious drink true to its name.
