Bardstown Bourbon Co. - High Wheat Bourbon (Origin)
Bardstown Bourbon Company
Origin Series - High Wheat Bourbon
Kentucky Straight Wheated Bourbon Whiskey
If you’re not familiar with Bardstown Bourbon Co., it was established in 2014 and in a very short period of time has emerged as one of the largest and most impactful distilleries in America, a powerhouse for both making their own whiskies and for contract distilling for an astounding number of popular brands. As for their own releases, they initially focused on a series of innovative blends — their “Discovery” and “Fusion” series. To that they added a series of limited collaboration bottlings, and in 2023 they exploded onto the scene with their own bourbon and rye whiskies that offered shocking good quality at a remarkably affordable price. It is virtually impossible to overstate how meteoric the rise of this distillery has been in such a short time. If you’re not paying attention to what they’re doing, you are seriously missing out.
From the Distillery: Honoring tradition and pushing boundaries of innovation, our High Wheat Bourbon is the first 39% wheated mashbill available on the market. This expression explodes with flavor imbued by the 39% wheat in the mashbill, and is presented at 106 proof. Estate-distilled, aged and bottle on-site; enjoy the unmatched character and elegance of High Wheat.
TASTING NOTES: Ripe apricot and lemon rest on leather and crème brûlée. A bold palate of oak and pastry leads to a lightly spiced, full-bodied finish.
53% ABV / 106 PROOF / 750ML
