Heaven Hill Grain To Glass Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey 700ml

A sophisticated and robust bourbon, this expression from Heaven Hill’s Grain to Glass series is a testament to the full journey of whiskey-making, from the seed in the field to the dram in the glass. It’s designed for whiskey lovers who value not just flavor, but the story behind every bottle.

Distillation & Source

• Crafted with a distinct mashbill: high in rye, complemented by corn and malted barley, giving it a spicier and more structured profile than traditional bourbons.

• Made using farm-sourced grains, with attention to specific seed varieties and farming practices, reinforcing Heaven Hill’s commitment to origin and quality.

• Distilled on-site and matured in Heaven Hill’s own rickhouses, where the microclimate influences the aging process and deepens the bourbon’s complexity.

Maturation & Bottling

• Aged for six years, allowing for significant interaction between the spirit and wood—resulting in oak-driven richness, integrated rye spice, and caramelized sweetness.

• Picked at barrel strength and bottled without chill filtration, preserving the natural oils, complexity, and full mouthfeel of the whiskey.

• Every bottle reflects a careful blend of character, depth, and authenticity, staying true to the Grain to Glass ethos of transparency.

Tasting Notes

• Appearance: Deep amber with warm golden hues, hinting at the oak maturity.

• Nose: Opens with warm, caramel-laced vanilla, toasted pecans, and nutmeg, then evolves with hints of dried grass and grain, offering an elegant balance of sweet and spicy.

• Palate: Smooth and full-bodied, combining butterscotch and marmalade sweetness with vibrant rye spice, freshly baked apple pie, and honeyed malt. Oak tannins add depth, while a touch of peppery warmth emerges.

• Finish: Generously long. The spicy rye lingers alongside woody vanilla, toasted grains, and mellow oak tannins, leaving a softly warming, lingering finish on the palate.

Character & Philosophy

The Grain to Glass concept puts Heaven Hill’s philosophy on full display — one that values traceability, craftsmanship, and a genuine connection between farmer, distiller, and drinker. This bourbon isn’t just about how it tastes; it’s about where every grain came from and how each step of production matters. The result is a whiskey that’s authentic, richly textured, and deeply expressive.

Why It Stands Out

• Full Transparency: From the seed in the field to the whiskey in the bottle, you’re tasting the story.

• High Proof, High Impact: Barrel strength captures the full spectrum of flavor, intensity, and character.

• Balanced Complexity: While richly sweet and caramel-forward, it also offers a solid backbone of rye spice and oak.

• Versatile Enjoyment: Perfect for sipping neat or with a splash of water; also holds its own in premium cocktails.

• Collector Appeal: A limited and thoughtfully crafted release that appeals to whiskey enthusiasts who appreciate provenance and premium quality.

Whether you're a seasoned whiskey connoisseur or someone looking to deepen your appreciation for small-batch, farm-sourced bourbon, this release from Heaven Hill offers a rich, layered, and meaningful experience.
