Exceptionallly smooth wheated bourbon from an iconic Kentucky distillery

This elegant wheated bourbon offers a beautifully rounded profile, highlighted by luscious caramel, butterscotch, and stone fruit notes. The inclusion of wheat in the mash bill delivers an exceptionally smooth, soft mouthfeel that lingers with gentle warmth.

The story behind it

The maker

Originally founded by John W. McCulloch in 1885, Green River was once one of the largest producers of Kentucky whiskey before being destroyed by fire and silenced by Prohibition. Decades later, the historic distillery was beautifully restored to bring this legendary bourbon brand back to life.

How it is made

Crafted at the historic Green River Distillery in Owensboro, Kentucky, which was originally established in 1885. The whiskey is distilled using local grains and aged in charred new American oak barrels inside their traditional wooden rickhouses.
