Missouri - Barrel Pick by The Whiskey Collective & Bourbon Legends

Mash Bill: Corn: 73% Wheat: 15% Barley: 12%

Crafted in Weston, Missouri

The finest bourbon emerges from the perfect blend of climate and geology, a combination that is rare outside of Kentucky but thrives in the rolling hills of Weston, Missouri at the Holladay Distillery.

A Unique Recipe

Holladay Soft Red Wheat Bourbon is crafted using the original Holladay recipe with one important substitution: wheat replaces rye. This change transforms the entire taste profile of the spirit, offering a softer and sweeter experience.

• Distillation: Made in the original stillhouse
• Barreling: Aged in Missouri white oak barrels
• Storage: Iron-clad rickhouses onsite
• Proof: Bottled at Cask Strength

Why Wheat?

Using wheat in a bourbon mash bill creates a distinct flavor profile:

• Softer and sweeter taste compared to rye-based bourbons, which tend to add spice.
• Soft Red Wheat characteristics: Lower protein levels, red bran, and minimal gluten provide a smooth finish, true to its name.

Bottled-in-Bond Excellence

Holladay Soft Red Wheat Bourbon stands out as one of the few bottled-in-bond wheat bourbons aged 6+ years. This prestigious classification requires:

• Distillation, aging, and bottling at the same location.
• Assurance of authenticity through strict production standards.

Real Missouri Bourbon

This bourbon also proudly holds the title of Real Missouri Bourbon under a 2019 law. To earn this designation, it must:

• Meet federal standards for bourbon.
• Be mashed, fermented, distilled, aged, and bottled within Missouri.
• Use oak barrels manufactured in Missouri.
• Be made with corn exclusively grown in Missouri (effective January 1, 2020).

Holladay Soft Red Wheat Bourbon is a testament to patience and craftsmanship, delivering a smooth, memorable experience worth the wait.
