"Bulleit Bourbon Frontier Whiskey
Brand & History
Bulleit Bourbon traces its origins to the 19th century, inspired by the whiskey recipe created by Augustus Bulleit. The brand was revived in 1987 by his great-great-grandson, Tom Bulleit, and has since become known for its high-rye bourbon style and distinctive frontier-inspired identity. Today, it is produced in Kentucky and is part of one of the world's leading spirits portfolios.
Product
Bulleit Bourbon Frontier Whiskey is a Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey crafted from a high-rye mash bill and matured in new charred American oak barrels. Its elevated rye content gives the whiskey a bold, spicy character while maintaining balance through notes of vanilla and oak.
Tasting Notes
The nose reveals aromas of orange zest, vanilla, sweet oak, and baking spices. The palate is smooth and medium to full-bodied, with flavors of caramel, rye spice, nutmeg, toasted oak, and a hint of dried fruit, leading to a long, clean finish with lingering spice.

Trivia
Bulleit's mash bill contains a higher proportion of rye than many traditional bourbons. This gives the whiskey its signature spicy profile while still meeting the legal requirement that bourbon must contain at least 51% corn."
