Wheated bourbon is a type of bourbon whiskey that is made with a higher percentage of wheat in its mash bill, typically at least 20% or more. This sets wheated bourbon apart from traditional bourbons, which are typically made with a majority of corn in their mash bill, along with smaller amounts of rye and barley.
Wheated bourbons are known for their softer, sweeter, and smoother flavor profile compared to traditional bourbons, which are often spicier and more robust. The use of wheat in the mash bill can impart notes of caramel, vanilla, and butterscotch in the finished whiskey. Some popular wheated bourbons include Pappy Van Winkle, Maker's Mark, and W.L. Weller.
Wheated bourbons have gained popularity in recent years, with many whiskey enthusiasts seeking out their unique and mellow flavor profile. They are often prized for their complexity, balance, and smoothness, making them a favorite choice for sipping neat or in classic cocktails like an Old Fashioned or Manhattan.
