Mary Dowling Winter Wheat Straight Bourbon is a tribute to one of the most pioneering women in American whiskey history—Mary Dowling, known as the “Mother of Bourbon.” This expression highlights the softer side of bourbon through a wheated mash bill that swaps rye for winter wheat, creating a smoother, rounder, and more approachable profile.
Crafted in small batches and aged in new charred American oak barrels, this straight bourbon delivers richness, elegance, and balance, honoring Mary Dowling’s legacy of resilience and innovation during the Prohibition era.
Q: What’s the difference between winter wheat and rye in bourbon?
A: Winter wheat gives bourbon a softer, creamier mouthfeel and sweeter profile, while rye adds spice and intensity.
Q: Is this a limited edition?
A: The Winter Wheat release is part of Mary Dowling’s core portfolio, but still relatively limited in distribution due to small-batch production.
Q: How should I enjoy it?
A: Best sipped neat or with a splash of water. It also works beautifully in cocktails like a Wheated Old Fashioned or Bourbon Smash.
Q: Is this a good gift for someone new to bourbon?
A: Yes! Its smooth, wheat-driven flavor makes it very approachable for newcomers and seasoned bourbon drinkers alike.
