Bulleit 10 Year Bourbon Whiskey

Product Description

Bulleit 10 Year Bourbon Whiskey: Ten-Year High-Rye Bourbon Bottled at 91.2 Proof

Bulleit 10 Year Bourbon Whiskey is a Kentucky straight bourbon matured for at least ten years in new charred American white oak barrels. It uses the same high-rye recipe associated with standard Bulleit Bourbon but gains additional dried fruit, leather and polished oak from extended aging.

The bottle is released at 91.2 proof, or 45.6% ABV. Official and trade tasting material describes an off-dry balance of spice, caramel and dried fruit, while the age statement adds cedar, tobacco and a firmer tannic structure.

The extra age makes it suitable for neat sipping without losing the peppery identity that helps Bulleit work in cocktails. A small amount of water or one large cube can soften oak and reveal more fruit.

Tasting Notes

Nose: Caramel, dried apple and orange peel with vanilla, cedar, leather and high-rye baking spice.

Palate: Brown sugar, burnt caramel and dried fruit with pepper, clove, oak and a lightly oily texture.

Finish: Dry and warming, with leather, orange zest, nutmeg, rye spice and mature oak.

Food Pairings

• Grilled steak: char and fat balance ten years of oak and rye spice
• Aged cheddar: sharp cheese complements caramel and leather
• Roasted pecans: nuts reinforce mature oak and brown sugar
• Apple pie: baked fruit echoes dried apple and cinnamon

Serving Suggestions

Serve neat after resting, add a few drops of water or pour over one large cube. It also makes an oak-forward Old Fashioned or Manhattan with modest sweetener.

Store upright, sealed and away from direct sunlight or heat. Maintain a stable room temperature.
