Wilderness Trail Single Barrel Bourbon Whiskey 750ml

Wilderness Trail’s high in small grain bourbon is a truly exceptional whiskey that is available as a single barrel selection and bottled in bond. This unique single barrel selection offers nuanced flavors that can only be created by premium cooper select barrels that use 18-month-old air-dried staves for toasting. The bottled in bond certification ensures that the bourbon was properly distilled, aged for between 5-6 years, and bottled at 100 proof.
The mash bill for this bourbon is 64 percent corn, 24 percent wheat, and 12 percent malted barley, making it one of the highest ratios of wheat used in a Kentucky-made bourbon. After distillation, the distillate is barreled in a #4 char barrel at 110 proof, having come off the still around 137 proof. The bourbon is aged in Rickhouse A, a two-story building with moving floors each year of maturation.
On the nose, this bourbon offers a pleasant mix of sweet grain and savory notes, with hints of buttery salted caramel and cinnamon rolls. The palate is thick and oily, with flavors of buttered popcorn, chewy caramel, and polished wood. The flavors are nicely balanced and complemented by just the right amount of smoldering heat that lingers in the back of the throat.
The finish is medium-long, with a touch of wintergreen and cherry candy, leaving a pleasantly satisfying aftertaste. Whether you’re a bourbon connoisseur or a novice, Wilderness Trail’s high in small grain bourbon is an exceptional choice that is sure to impress.
