Breuckelen Poject No. 1 Wheated Bourbon

Breuckelen Poject No. 1 Wheated Bourbon

This item is archived.

One of two new bonded whiskey releases from Breuckelen Distilling which resides right in Brooklyn, New York. This is the first release of the distilleries Bottled in Bond Straight Bourbon Whiskey. Batch/Project No.1 is a Wheater; using Wheat instead of Rye in the Mash Bill. It was harvested distilled, and put into barrel all within the same season of 2013, as it needs to be under Bottled in Bond regulations. 

The exact Mash Bill for Project No. 1 was 60% Corn, 20% Red Wheat, and 20% Malted Barley. It was twice distilled before going into virgin oak barrels at about 75% ABV. At four years of age, it was bottled at 50% ABV.

The term "Bonded" or "Bottled in Bond" means that this whiskey had to adhere to the following standards as originally written into law by the Bottled-in-Bond Act of 1897:

 

- All whiskey in the bottle must be produced by one distillery and by one distiller over the course of one distillation season.

- The whiskey must be at least four years old.

- It must be bottled at 100 proof / 50% ABV

- The whiskey must be aged in bonded warehouses under United States federal supervision.

- The label on the bottle has to state which distillery it comes from and also where it was bottled.

About the Distillery

Breuckelen Distillery was founded in 2010 in Brooklyn, New York. Like many of the newer and smaller craft distilleries, they have a focus on using mostly local ingredients - which in this case means using mostly organic grains grown their home state of New York whenever possible.
