Southern Star Paragon Cask Strength Single Barrel Wheated Bourbon

Southern Star Paragon Cask Strength Single Barrel Wheated Straight Bourbon Whiskey is an exquisite, high-proof expression from Southern Star, a distillery known for its commitment to traditional bourbon craftsmanship. This cask strength bourbon is a potent and pure representation of the distillery’s expertise, featuring a single barrel selection that ensures a unique and memorable drinking experience with each bottle.

As a wheated bourbon, this Paragon release substitutes the more typical rye grain in the mash bill with wheat, resulting in a smoother and softer profile. This choice enhances the sweetness and fullness of the bourbon, offering flavors of creamy vanilla, buttery caramel, and a hint of warm baking spices. The higher wheat content also imparts a mellow character, making the high alcohol content surprisingly approachable.

Aged in new charred oak barrels, this bourbon takes on a deep amber hue and a rich complexity. Being a cask strength spirit, it offers an intense and robust flavor profile that captures the essence of the raw spirit directly from the barrel, without dilution. Notes of dark chocolate, toasted oak, and a subtle fruitiness enhance the bourbon's layered palate.

Southern Star Paragon Cask Strength Single Barrel Wheated Straight Bourbon Whiskey is best enjoyed neat or with a splash of water to tame the strength and unfold the intricate flavors. Ideal for bourbon aficionados who appreciate a strong, well-crafted whiskey, this bourbon stands out in any collection and offers a robust tasting experience that showcases the finest qualities of wheated bourbon.
