Heaven Hill Grain To Glass Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey

Heaven Hill Grain to Glass Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey is a unique offering from Heaven Hill Distillery, located in Bardstown, Kentucky. This bourbon is part of the distillery’s Grain to Glass series, a project spearheaded by Executive Chairman Max Shapira in the mid-2010s. The series emphasizes transparency and collaboration with other family-owned businesses, showcasing Heaven Hill’s commitment to innovation and tradition. The bourbon is crafted using a high-rye mashbill of 52% corn, 35% rye, and 13% malted barley, and is bottled at 105 proof. Drinkers will notice the spirit's distinct corn varietal used in production. Heaven Hill partnered with Beck’s Hybrids, an Indiana-based family business, to select a specific corn seed varietal—Beck’s 6225—chosen for its suitability to Central Kentucky’s growing conditions. The corn is cultivated by Peterson Farms, a family-owned operation in Nelson County, Kentucky. The whiskey was distilled in 2018, aged for six years, and matured in Cox’s Creek rickhouses W5 and W6 on floors 3, 4, and 5, which adds a layer of specificity to its production story. Typically found north of $100, this bourbon is a bold experiment from one of Kentucky’s most storied distilleries.
