Preservation Estate Pot Distilled 7 Year Wheated Bourbon

Preservation Estate Pot Distilled Kentucky Bourbon stands out as a rare wheated gem from Preservation Distillery in Bardstown, crafted via traditional pot still methods with local corn, harvest wheat, and dark toasted malted barley, then aged 6-7 years in small 1-3 barrel batches for bold complexity at around 117-120 proof. Its symphony of flavors—dark caramel, syrupy brown sugar, burnt cherries, hot cinnamon spice, nougat, toasted oak, and hints of baklava or espresso-chocolate—delivers a creamy, buttery mouthfeel with a long, warming finish that punches far beyond its youth, unlike lighter wheated bourbons. Bourbon lovers crave it for its farm-to-glass authenticity, unfiltered intensity, and collector appeal as the distillery's first estate release, perfect for savoring neat or in premium cocktails.
