Wilderness Trail Small Batch BIB Bourbon – Black Label

The Rye small grain Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskeys are offered as a Small Batch, up to 12 barrels per batch, which was the result of one fermenter. The goal of the Small Batch is to capture the total essence of more complex notes from multiple barrels from distillate of the same fermenter.Wilderness Trail has decided to release the Small Batch Bourbon as a Bottled in Bond so fans of their Wheated Single Barrel Bourbon can do a side-by-side comparison.

The Small Batch release mash bill is 64 percent corn, 24 percent rye and 12 percent malted barley using the company’s yeast strains. They entered the cooper select, toasted and #4 char barrel at 110 proof after coming off the still around 137 proof. All of the Wilderness Trail whiskeys are aged and matured on their 168-acre campus inside any one of their six rickhouses. They have more than 100,000 barrels aging onsite.
