The Bardstown Origin Series Wheated Bourbon is a milestone release from one of Kentucky’s most forward-thinking distilleries. Distilled, aged, and bottled on-site at Bardstown Bourbon Company, this expression is a wheated mashbill straight bourbon aged for six years in new oak barrels. The inclusion of wheat in the mashbill softens the profile, creating a bourbon that’s approachable yet full of character—balanced, elegant, and crafted to showcase the best of Bardstown’s homegrown whiskey.

Why Buy the Bardstown Origin Wheated Bourbon?
This bourbon is part of Bardstown’s first-ever 100% estate-distilled series, making it a true origin story for the brand.

As part of the acclaimed Origin Series, it reflects Bardstown’s commitment to transparency, quality, and innovation—traits that have made the distillery one of the most respected names in American whiskey today.
