Description
The Bulleit Bourbon 10 Years Old Frontier Whiskey is a specially matured version of the classic Bulleit Bourbon and impresses with its strong, full-bodied character. With an alcohol content of 45.6% vol. and a maturation period of 10 years in burnt American white oak barrels, this bourbon develops exceptional depth and complexity. The long barrel ageing gives it intense notes of vanilla, oak and spices, which combine harmoniously with the rye spice typical of Bulleit.
The mash bill of this bourbon consists of 68% corn, 28% rye and 4% malted barley, which gives it a perfect balance between sweetness, spice and structure. The result is an elegant, smooth bourbon that can be enjoyed neat or in classic cocktails such as the Old Fashioned or Manhattan. The distinctive vintage-style bottle emphasises its traditional frontier character and makes it an ideal choice for connoisseurs and collectors of high-quality American whiskeys.
