Unlock the full potential of Owensboro’s finest with Green River Full Proof Wheated Bourbon. Produced at the historic DSP-KY-10 distillery, this expression takes the brand's fan-favorite wheated mash bill and bottles it at a commanding **109.3 Proof (54.65% ABV)**. By skipping the heavy dilution, Green River delivers a "pure" pour that amplifies the soft, sweet character of the wheat while adding a robust kick of intensity.
The "Pride of Owensboro" shines through in this bottle, which features a mash bill of **70% Kentucky-grown corn, 21% wheat, and 9% malted barley**. The absence of rye spice allows the rich, bakery-fresh flavors of the wheat to take center stage, creating a drinking experience that is remarkably smooth despite the high proof. It is a testament to the revival of one of Kentucky's most important heritage distilleries.
