Old Elk Slow Cut Wheated Bourbon Straight Bourbon Whiskey

Old Elk Slow Cut Wheated Bourbon Straight Bourbon Whiskey is a smooth, grain-forward wheated bourbon crafted to showcase balance, texture, and layered flavor. Made with a high-wheat mash bill of 51% corn, 46% wheat, and 3% malted barley, this straight bourbon whiskey delivers a softer, rounder profile than traditional rye-driven bourbons while still offering structure, richness, and classic bourbon depth. Produced using Old Elk’s signature Slow Cut™ proofing process, this bourbon is designed to preserve flavor and mouthfeel, creating an elegant whiskey with notes of vanilla, caramel, sweet grain, and gentle oak. It is an excellent choice for shoppers seeking wheated bourbon, premium bourbon whiskey, smooth sipping bourbon, or a versatile bottle for both neat pours and elevated cocktails.
