Arkansas bourbon hunters have something new to chase. Kyle Boswell of Purspirit Liquor announced today the release of a Green River Wheated Bourbon Whiskey \u2013 Single Barrel<\/strong>, bottled at 117.8 Proof (Cask Strength).<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This private barrel selection showcases Green River\u2019s wheated mash bill in its full, uncut form \u2014 delivering bold proof, rich texture, and classic Kentucky character straight from the barrel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Bottle Details<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    What Makes a Wheated Bourbon Different?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Unlike traditional bourbon mash bills that use rye as the secondary grain, wheated bourbon replaces rye with wheat. The result is typically:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    • Softer spice profile<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Creamier mouthfeel<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Notes of sweet bread, caramel, and vanilla<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Rounded oak influence<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      At cask strength, those characteristics intensify. Expect deeper caramelization, richer oak structure, and a longer warming finish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n\n\n\n

      About Green River Distilling Co.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

      Green River Distilling Co., located in Owensboro, Kentucky, traces its origins back to 1885<\/strong>, when it was founded by J.W. McCulloch. It proudly holds DSP-KY-10, making it the 10th licensed distillery in Kentucky.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Historically marketed as \u201cThe Whiskey Without Regrets,\u201d Green River became one of the most recognizable bourbon brands of the pre-Prohibition era. Like many historic distilleries, it closed during Prohibition but has since been revived.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Today, Green River operates on a revitalized Owensboro campus and has re-established itself as a respected Kentucky bourbon producer. The distillery now produces traditional mash bills, wheated expressions, and high-quality single barrels that are increasingly selected by retailers across the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n\n\n\n

      Arkansas Single Barrel Momentum Continues<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

      Arkansas has seen a strong surge in store picks over the last several years, and wheated bourbon continues to grow in popularity among collectors and daily sippers alike.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      With a cask strength release at 117.8 proof, this Purspirit Liquor selection should appeal to both proof enthusiasts and fans of softer, wheat-forward bourbon profiles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      As always with single barrels \u2014 once this barrel is gone, it\u2019s gone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
