Seelbach’s Private Reserve Wheated Straight Kentucky Bourbon Batch 003

53.5% ABV

Whiskey made at Green River Distillery in Owensboro, KY for the namesake online spirits retailer and independent bottler. Meant to be an "Available Wheated Bourbon" at a time when so many of them become inaccessible cult hits like Pappy/Weller/Old Fitz. From a mashbill of 70% corn, 21% wheat, and 9% malted barley, it's a blend of barrels that were 7 years 8 months & 5 years 7 months.

Tasting Notes: 
"Roasted peaches drizzled with caramel and topped with fresh whipped cream. These notes set the tone for this rich and inviting whiskey. The profile mixes sweetness and spice. It balances smooth, wheated bourbon with a touch of heat for structure. On the palate, you'll taste toffee-covered dried cherries. They mix well with soft caramel and a hint of cinnamon. As it evolves, layers of baking spice and toasted pecans appear. They add warmth and complexity. The finish brings everything together. It has hints of strawberry preserves, vanilla bean ice cream. Then a last touch of buttery toffee and toasted almonds."
