Bulleit American Single Malt is Bulleit's entry into the American single malt category, made from a Bulleit-curated malted barley strain, aged in white oak barrels and bottled at 90 proof (45% ABV).
Crafted in the spirit of the frontier, a symbol of the drive to push into new territory rather than a place on a map, the whiskey reflects the brand's commitment to innovation and to pushing the boundaries of traditional whiskey-making. It is a new chapter for a brand best known for its high-rye bourbon and rye whiskeys.
The bottle is made with recycled glass from upcycled wine and beer bottles, part of Bulleit's effort to reduce its footprint and replenish the resources it uses.
On the nose are notes of sweet vanilla and toasted oak. The palate is light and fruity, with red fruit and pear, leading to a smooth finish of oaky caramel and subtle cocoa.
A modern American single malt, it makes a fine gift for the curious whiskey drinker.
American whiskey covers a wide range of styles, from bourbon and rye to single malts and light whiskeys, and independent blenders and small producers have made it one of the most exciting categories in spirits.
American single malt whiskey is made from 100% malted barley at a single distillery in the United States, a category that has grown quickly as American distillers bring their own approach to a style long associated with Scotland.
Ageing in white oak gives the malt its vanilla and toasted oak notes, while the barley itself provides the light fruit at the heart of the palate.
