Wilderness Trail
Small Batch Bottled in Bond Wheated Bourbon Whiskey

Wilderness Trail is a Kentucky-based distillery known for producing bourbon with a sweet mash process, in contrast to the more common sour mash method. This technique involves using all fresh ingredients for each batch, which the distillery believes results in a smoother whiskey. They offer two main bourbon mash bills, a wheated version and a high-rye version, both of which are primarily sold as Bottled-in-Bond products.

• Palate: Caramel, vanilla, and hints of cinnamon and blood orange. Reviewers have also noted flavors of baked pear, brown sugar, honey, and floral sandalwood.
• Finish: Long and sweet, with notes of oak spice, toffee, and dark fruit.
