Artisanal Wintry Bourbons

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Mary Dowling Whiskey Company Unveiled its Winter Wheat Bourbon

— October 22, 2024 — Lifestyle
The Mary Dowling Whiskey Company has introduced 'Winter Wheat Bourbon,' an artisanal wheated bourbon aged in toasted barrels. This release marks the third addition to the brand's whiskey lineup, celebrating Mary Dowling's significant contributions to bourbon craftsmanship.

Crafted from a locally sourced wheat strain, Winter Wheat undergoes "an aging process of over four years in #3 wood-fired, toasted, and charred new American oak barrels; this unique combination enhances the bourbon's layered complexity and balanced flavor profile."

Notably, tasting notes include "caramel, vanilla, roasted nuts, and warm spices, providing a smooth drinking experience with an aromatic profile that features ripe cherry, oak, and dark stone fruit, leading to flavors of honey and finishing with hints of allspice, cinnamon, and black pepper." Overall, the artisanal production methods and careful aging process contribute to the bourbon's complexity, enhancing the tasting experience.
