1792 Sweet Wheat Limited Release Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey

$129.00
(5.0)
Overview
Wheated Small Batch Kentucky Straight Bourbon | Barton 1792 Distillery, Bardstown, Kentucky · 45.6% ABV (91.2 Proof) · 750ml

1792 Sweet Wheat is the softer, sweeter side of the 1792 range. Where the Small Batch leans on a high-rye mash bill for spice and backbone, Sweet Wheat swaps in wheat as the secondary grain, giving it a smoother, more rounded character. Aged 8 years and bottled at 91.2 proof, it's got real depth without the rye kick.

Honey, vanilla, and butterscotch up front, with a clean, easy finish. A limited release from Barton 1792 and a solid pick for anyone who finds most bourbons a bit too spicy.
