Distiller Notes
Green River's Wheated Bourbon leads with a beautiful peach and caramel aroma coupled with apricot and cinnamon. On the palate you’ll find toffee, pastry and hazelnut that guide toward a honeyed finish that’s smooth and balanced. The wheated expression lends itself to easy drinking while holding its own distinct character.
Although Bourbon may be produced anywhere in the United States, it is most commonly associated with Bourbon County, Kentucky, where it has been produced since the late 18th century. Made from a mash bill containing at least 51% corn, the Bourbon Whiskey distillate must be aged in new, charred white oak barrels. Bourbon Whiskeys are bottled at eighty proof (40% abv) or higher and cannot contain any added color or flavor. A versatile spirit that can be sipped neat, with water or on the rocks, it also performs nicely added to cocktails like the Old Fashioned.
