Origins & Craftsmanship

Wyoming Whiskeys Barrel Strength is a small-batch, limited edition bourbon chosen from top barrels in their warehouses in Kirby, Wyoming. Their philosophy is grain to glassall grains are grown in Wyoming, and all production (distilling, aging, bottling) occurs in state.

This expression is aged in new charred oak barrels, and bottled at barrel strength (uncut, full proof) to preserve maximum flavor. The mash bill is 68% corn, 20% wheat, 12% malted barley. (This is the same mash bill used in their small-batch and other core expressions.)

Barrel Strength #5440 was aged 10 years and bottled with strong flavor profiles of dried fruit, chocolate orange, and dark spice, and bottled at 63.7%ABV/127.4 proof.

The flavor is meant to be as direct and powerful as possibleWyoming doesnt chill-filter or dilute this bottling.
