Regular price

Parker's Heritage 18th Edition: Wheated Elegance with a Collector’s Edge
Each year as part of the Parker's Heritage Collection, they select a special Whiskey to be released in the name of their late Master Distiller Parker Beam. The barrels selected for this series include Bourbon, Rye, and Wheat Whiskeys, among others, and are some of the finest and most diverse American Whiskeys ever produced. They are a fitting tribute to the expertise of Parker Beam.
Crafted with Heaven Hill’s wheated mash bill (68% corn, 20% wheat, 12% malted barley), the 18th edition of the Parker's Heritage Collection® consists of 14-year-old Malt Whiskey aged in the upper floors of Rickhouses O and Q. Then, barrels that previously held Cognac were reconstructed to include a handful of new heavy toast staves. The Malt Whiskey was then rebarreled in the reconstructed barrels and aged for almost four months. Bottled at 107 proof without chill filtration, the rebarreling transforms the Malt Whiskey's earthy, herbal characteristics into complex notes of molasses, dark chocolate, and dried summer fruit.
What makes Parker's Heritage 18 so special is its depth and structure — capturing the softness of wheat while delivering the power of barrel strength. It honours the legacy of Parker Beam, Heaven Hill’s legendary master distiller, and continues the collection’s tradition of showcasing unique mash bills, finishes, or age statements each year.
Highly allocated and highly praised, it’s not just a whiskey — Parker's Heritage is a statement of craftsmanship, patience, and innovation.
