This 2025 edition of Heaven Hill’s Grain-to-Glass wheated bourbon is a solid demonstration of the wheat style’s smoother, rounder character—while still retaining strength and complexity at barrel proof. The transparency of process (seed selection, mashbill, aging) makes it compelling for enthusiasts who want both flavor and story. It leans sweeter and softer than rye-heavy bourbons, yet delivers depth through fruit, oak, and spice.
Origins & Craftsmanship
-
The Grain-to-Glass series by Heaven Hill is designed to showcase the full journey: from farm (seed/corn variety) to bottle.
-
The 2025 Wheated Bourbon is their second edition in the wheated Bourbon line.
-
The mashbill is 52% corn, 35% wheat, and 13% malted barley—a higher wheat content than their “traditional” wheated bourbon mashbill.
-
The corn varietal used is Beck’s 6225, grown locally (Nelson County, Kentucky) by Peterson Farms, underlining the series’ commitment to traceability.
-
Aging: about six years in Heaven Hill’s Cox’s Creek rickhouses (ricks W5 & W6, floors 3–5).
-
This bourbon is non-chill filtered and bottled at barrel proof (106.6 proof / 53.3% ABV).
