Stirred by the frontier spirit, Bulleit Bourbon was born in 1987 with the bold desire to revive an old family bourbon recipe. To this day, Bulleit Bourbon is distilled and aged in the Bulleit tradition. High rye content gives it a bold, spicy character with a distinctively smooth, clean finish. Kentucky limestone-filtered water provides a foundation for the whiskey’s character while charred American oak barrels lend a smoky backbone. Our aging philosophy is simple: we wait until our bourbon is ready.
