Mary Dowling Winter Wheat Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey

Description

This Winter Wheat features a meticulously crafted recipe with a strain grown locally in Kentucky, that undergoes a transformative 4+ year aging process in #3 wood-fired, toasted and charred new American oak barrels. The special combination of a Wheated Mash Bill and aging in toasted barrels creates a whiskey with rich, layered complexity and a balanced profile. Fall-forward flavors of caramel, vanilla, roasted nuts and warm spices mingle seamlessly, offering a smooth and inviting experience with every sip. Mary Dowling, dubbed the "Mother of Bourbon," was a formidable force in the pre-prohibition bourbon industry. Despite facing prejudice as a woman and an Irish Catholic, she became the sole proprietor of the Dowling distillery empire after her husband's passing, ascending to become one of the wealthiest women in the country.
