Stiefel's Select Single Barrel Four Grain is a straight bourbon whiskey from Heritage Distilling Co. of Gig Harbor, Washington, aged 4 years and bottled at 47% ABV (94 proof).
Its label gives a four-grain mash bill of 55% corn, 25% wheat, 15% rye and 5% barley.
It is matured in new, heavily charred American oak and bottled from a single barrel, with barrel and bottle numbers on the label.
The wheat softens the corn's sweetness while the rye adds a little spice.
The Four Grain single barrel has won Double Gold and Gold medals in spirits competitions, and it is a well-crafted Pacific Northwest bourbon for the curious whiskey drinker.
Bourbon must be made in the United States from a mash of at least 51% corn and aged in new charred oak containers, and straight bourbon must be aged at least two years. Those rules give bourbon its characteristic sweetness, with caramel and vanilla drawn from the charred barrels.
