Composed of a unique blend of 28% rye, 68% corn, and 4% malted barley malt, along with special strains of yeast and pure Kentucky limestone-filtered water. Due to its high rye content, Bulleit Bourbon has a bold and spicy character with a clean and smooth finish. This blend is inspired by a family recipe created by Augustus Bulleit over 150 years ago.

Distilled and aged according to the Bulleit family tradition. The high content of rye gives it a bold, spicy character with a distinctively smooth, clean finish. Then the Kentucky limestone-filtered water provides a foundation for the bourbon's character, while charred American oak barrels lend a smoky backbone. Their aging philosophy is simple: they wait until our bourbon is ready.
