Green River Full Proof Kentucky Straight Wheated Bourbon

Green River spent years quietly producing exceptional whiskey for other brands, but those days are officially over. The Full Proof Wheated Bourbon is the distillery’s mic drop. While their standard 90-proof wheated release offers a polite introduction to the soft, winter-wheat mashbill (70% corn, 21% wheat, 9% malted barley), this bottle is the uncut, unfiltered conversation.

Drawn from a blend of five-to-seven-year-old barrels, this spirit bypasses the watering-down process entirely. It captures the raw energy of the Owensboro rickhouses, offering a texture that is shockingly oily and dense. The high wheat content acts as a velvet glove, softening the blow of the 117.3 proof, but don't be fooled—the heat is there, and it brings a massive amount of flavor with it.

You are tasting the "pink label" that enthusiasts have been demanding since the distillery's revival. It is robust, heavy, and unapologetically flavorful. If you want to see what Green River can do when they take the restrictor plate off, this is it.
