Kentucky - Bardstown Bourbon Company will expand its core offerings with the addition of High Wheat Bourbon, a Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey having 39% wheat in its mashbill. Quick Facts AGE: 6 years PROOF: 106 (53% abv) MASHBILL: 53% Corn, 39 Wheat, 8% Malted Barley
Per the brand, Bardstown’s High Wheat Bourbon is comprised of one of the highest percentage wheated mashbills in the bourbon category at 39%. Combined with a low barrel entry proof, meant to extract maximum wood sugars, the result as noted by BBCo is imbued with ripe apricot and lemon, resting on leather and crème brûlée on the nose. A bold palate of oak and pastry leads to a lightly spiced, yet full-bodied finish.
