The Story
129.2 proof. 10 years. Wheated mashbill. Cask strength. Boone County Distilling — a wheated bourbon expression from the Burlington, Kentucky distillery, adding a wheat-primary mashbill dimension to the standard high-rye Boone County program.
A wheated bourbon uses wheat as the secondary grain rather than the more common rye — producing a softer, sweeter character at the same proof point. At 10 years and 129.2 cask strength, this Boone County wheated expression brings the distillery's extended-age concentration to a mashbill that emphasizes different flavor notes than the standard high-rye Boone County barrels.
