The Story
131.6 proof. Cask strength. Blend of Mashbills. Parker's Heritage Collection 6th Edition 2012 — Parker Beam's blend of Heaven Hill's two primary mashbills at natural cask strength, a transparent documentation of what the high-rye and wheat mashbills produce together at barrel proof.
Heaven Hill operates two primary mashbills — the high-rye (used for Elijah Craig, Evan Williams, and the standard Heaven Hill lineup) and the wheated mashbill (used for Old Fitzgerald). The 6th Edition Blend of Mashbills combines both at cask strength — a rare simultaneous expression of Heaven Hill's two production traditions in a single bottle. The 6th Edition was released in two proof variants (131.6 and 139.4) reflecting different component ratios or barrel selections.
