Bulleit Bourbon

Bulleit Bourbon is more than just a whiskey—it’s a symbol of frontier spirit, a bold and complex expression of American craftsmanship. Housed in its distinctive old-fashioned bottle with an embossed label, this bourbon pays homage to the rich history of whiskey-making while standing out as a modern classic. With its high-rye mash bill, deep amber hue, and perfectly balanced flavor profile, Bulleit Bourbon is a must-have for anyone who appreciates a whiskey with character, depth, and versatility.

A Legacy of Pioneering Craftsmanship

The story of Bulleit Bourbon dates back to the 1830s when Augustus Bulleit, a determined distiller, set out to create a unique bourbon with an unprecedentedly bold flavor. His original recipe was lost to history, but the Bulleit legacy was revived in the late 20th century, bringing back the signature high-rye whiskey that set it apart from traditional bourbons.

Unlike many bourbons that favor a sweeter, corn-heavy profile, Bulleit Bourbon is crafted with a mash bill of 68% corn, 28% rye, and 4% malted barley. This high-rye content gives it a distinctive spiciness and complexity while maintaining the smoothness that bourbon lovers crave. Aged in charred American oak barrels, this whiskey develops rich layers of caramel, vanilla, and oak, resulting in a bold yet perfectly balanced spirit.

A Rich and Inviting Tasting Experience

From the first pour, Bulleit Bourbon captivates with its deep, golden amber color—an indication of the full-bodied experience that awaits. On the nose, inviting aromas of maple, nutmeg, and toasted oak blend with hints of dried fruit and vanilla, creating a warm and enticing bouquet.

The first sip reveals an explosion of flavor—rich caramel and toffee upfront, balanced by the signature spiciness of rye, with notes of cinnamon, pepper, and orange zest adding depth. The oak aging brings in smooth vanilla and smoky char, giving the bourbon a velvety texture that lingers on the palate. The finish is long and dry, with a satisfying warmth and hints of spice and caramel that make every sip memorable.

A Bourbon for Every Occasion

Bulleit Bourbon is a whiskey that stands the test of time—whether sipped neat, enjoyed on the rocks, or used to craft classic cocktails like the Old Fashioned or Manhattan. Its bold yet smooth profile makes it versatile enough for both casual whiskey drinkers and seasoned connoisseurs alike.

Owning a bottle of Bulleit Bourbon is not just about having a great whiskey—it’s about embracing a piece of American history, a spirit that embodies adventure, craftsmanship, and innovation. Whether you're sharing a glass with friends or savoring a quiet moment of indulgence, Bulleit Bourbon delivers an experience that is as bold and unforgettable as the pioneers who inspired it.
