Aged for seven years and bottled at cask strength, Castle & Key Cask Strength Wheated Bourbon delivers a bold yet beautifully balanced expression of our wheated mash bill. Bottled straight from the barrel at 108.2 proof (54.1% ABV), it offers depth, texture, and complexity without compromise.
The aroma opens with notes of oatmeal raisin cookie, vanilla frosting, baked peach, and candied pear, lifted by hints of orange peel, lilac, and soft cinnamon. On the palate, layers of almond pastry, butterscotch, and macaroon unfold alongside baking chocolate, dried cranberry, clove, and subtle floral tones.
The finish is long and warming, revealing raw brown sugar and roasted walnut that give way to leather and French toast.
Best enjoyed neat or with a splash of water to reveal its full range, this cask strength release showcases the elegance and richness that time and wheat bring to bourbon.
Distilled, aged, and bottled at our historic Castle & Key Distillery in Kentucky, it’s a true expression of patience and craft.
