Blue Note Single Barrel Wheated Bourbon #26220 115.95 proof - Selected by Seelbach's

About: Distilled in Kentucky and matured just north of downtown Memphis where the Mississippi and Wolf Rivers meet, this limited-release wheated bourbon showcases a mashbill of 70% corn, 21% wheat, and 9% barley. The intense Memphis summers and cooler evenings drive the whiskey deep into the oak, building a profile that is both rich and remarkably approachable. Soft winter wheat takes center stage, unfolding layers of ripe peach, apricot, and dark caramel accented by gentle cinnamon spice. The palate leans into sticky toffee, pastry-like sweetness, and rustic grain notes, while hints of hazelnut and honey carry through a warm, lingering finish. Crafted from carefully selected barrels chosen to balance creamy sweetness, evolving spice, and oak influence, the result is a layered and expressive bourbon that highlights the softer, rounder character that has long made wheated whiskey a favorite among enthusiasts.
