While many bourbon distillers rely heavily on rye as a core ingredient, Wilderness Trail takes a different approach. Their flagship is a wheated bourbon, which makes this high rye expression a distinct departure with a radically different flavor profile. Ideal for those who enjoy a bit more spice, this bourbon swaps in rye for a bold, peppery kick while still remaining remarkably approachable. It enters the barrel at just 110 proof to preserve more flavor during aging and is bottled at 100 proof. Expect rich tasting notes of dark fruit, tobacco, and subtle hints of leather and smoke.
