In the contemporary landscape, Bottled-in-Bond designations typically distinguish non-distiller producers from distillers who craft their own products, with certain rare exceptions. This latest offering from Bulleit® is a 7-year Bottled-in-Bond Bourbon, distilled at their own facility in the spring of 2017. This development signifies a shift from a combination of sourced and internally distilled Bourbon to a product that is entirely distilled in-house.
Bulleit Bourbons are crafted using two high rye mash bills and five yeast strains, thus providing blenders with ten distinct flavor profiles to utilize in their blends.
Bulleit’s® American Single Malt and Rye whiskeys are still produced elsewhere, but this release suggests that Bulleit’s® Bourbon will be made entirely in-house in the future.
"Introducing our first Bottled-in-Bond Bourbon, made entirely at the Bulleit® Distilling Company, is a proud achievement for our team,” says Delicia James, Lead Whiskey Blender at Diageo, “With our signature high-rye mash bill and seven years of aging under Bottled-in-Bond standards, this bourbon delivers a richness and complexity we’re excited to share. It’s a whiskey that truly showcases the best of what we do here in Shelbyville — bold, balanced, and crafted with care.”
Tasting Notes
Bulleit® Bottled in Bond is spicy and fruity on the nose. On the palate, it has notes of lightly toasted oak, maple and nutmeg, with a sweet butterscotch finish.
Bulleit® Bottled in Bond is proudly 100 Proof, 50% ABV. Distilled by Bulleit® Distilling Co., Shelbyville, KY.
