Wheel Horse Bourbon

Wheel Horse750 ml50.5% ABV

Small-batch Kentucky bourbon with a bold rye-forward kick

This small-batch bourbon opens with notes of dark molasses, rye spice, and herbal mint, followed by toasted oak and warm cinnamon. The finish is long and complex, delivering a perfect balance of sweet brown sugar and robust barrel character.
