Bernheim Original Wheat Whiskey Small Batch Limited Edition 20th Anniversary 10 Yr

Wheat whiskey from Kentucky's Bernheim is a departure from the corn-heavy bourbons that dominate the state's output. Where bourbon demands at least 51 percent corn in the mash bill, wheat whiskeys flip that formula, replacing it with wheat as the primary grain. This small batch expression has been aged for ten years, allowing the softer grain character and oak influence to develop over a full decade.

Wheat whiskey tends toward a gentler, slightly sweeter profile than its bourbon cousins, with less of the spice and bite that rye or corn can bring. Ten years in wood deepens the color and rounds the edges further, coaxing vanilla and caramel notes from the oak while keeping the inherent softness of the wheat. This is drinking whiskey that works neat or with a touch of water to open it up, or simply over ice if you prefer it cool and unhurried.
