Description

Green River Wheated Bourbon is a smooth, easy-drinking expression from the historic Green River Distilling Co. in Owensboro, Kentucky. As a wheated bourbon, it replaces rye in the mash bill with wheat — creating a softer, sweeter profile that’s incredibly approachable and full of flavour. Bottled at 90 proof (45% ABV), it’s perfect for those who enjoy a mellow sip without sacrificing depth.

Green River Wheated  mash bill features 70% corn, 21% wheat, and 9% malted barley, leading to aromas of honey, vanilla, and fresh-baked bread. On the palate, you’ll find notes of caramel, toasted oak, soft spice, and a hint of orchard fruit, all wrapped in a velvety mouthfeel. The finish is warm and rounded, with just enough oak to keep things grounded.

What sets Green River Wheated Bourbon apart is its balance and refinement. It’s a wheated bourbon that doesn’t chase trends — it leans into tradition with a clean, honest character. Whether you’re new to wheated styles or already love brands like Weller or Larceny, Green River’s take delivers quality, heritage, and value in every pour.

Tasting notes

Nose: Brown sugar and caramel scents push forward over an even sweeter underlay of crème brulée and butterscotch. It’s a gentle aroma that is grounded despite its sweetness.

Palate: Caramel and dark brown sugar begins in the palate. Slowly, mixed nuts and dark fruit are added, before the sip turns decidedly herbal and floral. A very light oak base is ever present.

Finish: The herbal and dark fruit notes of the palate carry over. Soon after, a layer of leather and oak are added
