Winter Wheat is a tribute to her pioneering spirit and unrelenting passion.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe mash bill is 65% corn, 25% winter wheat and 10% malted barley. The whiskey ages in #3 char barrels that are first wood-fired and toasted, a dual technique that brings a layered sweetness. Wheat in place of rye gives a softer, rounder bourbon, and the toasted barrels add a dessert-forward, fall-like warmth with minimal burn.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMade in Louisville, it is balanced and approachable, and its ribbed bottle with the purple and gold label makes a handsome gift.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBourbon 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWheated bourbons swap rye for wheat as the secondary grain, which trades peppery spice for a softer, sweeter, rounder profile.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eToasting a barrel before charring caramelizes the sugars deeper in the wood, adding notes of vanilla, toffee and baking spice.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCharacter:\u003c\/strong\u003e Soft, round and dessert-forward.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrain:\u003c\/strong\u003e Winter wheat sweetness.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOak:\u003c\/strong\u003e Toasted, layered sweetness.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProducer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mary Dowling Whiskey Co., Louisville, Kentucky\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Wheated Kentucky straight bourbon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMash Bill:\u003c\/strong\u003e 65% corn, 25% winter wheat, 10% malted barley\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBarrel:\u003c\/strong\u003e #3 char, wood-fired toasted new American oak\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAge:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4+ years\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProof \/ ABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 91 proof (45.5% ABV)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e Kentucky, USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to Enjoy It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSip it neat or on the rocks, or mix a smooth Old Fashioned.
