Heaven Hill Grain To Glass Wheated Bourbon Chinquapin Barrel 2025: A Study in Wheat & Wood
Explore the art of bourbon-making with the Heaven Hill Grain To Glass Wheated Bourbon Chinquapin Barrel 2025 Limited Edition. As your preferred partner for premium and rare spirits, Nestor Liquor is proud to present this highly anticipated release, which showcases Heaven Hill's commitment to transparency, terroir, and innovation.
This Kentucky Straight Wheated Bourbon is truly "Grain to Glass." It begins with a specific corn seed varietal,Beck's 6225, grown locally by Peterson Farms. This corn is milled and distilled at the Bernheim Distillery into a unique, high-wheat mashbill of 52% Corn, 35% Wheat, and 13% Malted Barley.
Distilled in 2018 and released in 2025, the true magic of this "Specialty Barrel" release comes from its maturation. The bourbon was aged for over six years in rare Chinquapin oak barrels. This specific oak imparts a richer, sweeter, and nuttier profile than traditional white oak, perfectly complementing the soft, sweet notes of the high-wheat mashbill.
Bottled non-chill filtered and at a barrel proof of 105 (52.5% ABV), this is a full-flavored, complex, and beautifully balanced wheated bourbon.
Tasting Notes:
Nose: A sweet and inviting aroma of cinnamon toast, brown sugar, and toasted coconut, with underlying notes of leather and butterscotch.
Palate: A wonderfully soft and rounded mouthfeel. The high-wheat mashbill shines with notes of vanilla and caramel, which are beautifully balanced by delicate floral hints of lavender and rose petals.
Finish: A long and satisfying finish that lingers with notes of toasted nuts, coffee, and a final touch of sweet, leathery oak.
This 2025 limited edition is a must-have for any wheated bourbon fan or Heaven Hill collector.
