To create this 'new American Whiskey', Heaven Hill Father and Son Master Distillers, Parker and Craig Beam developed a wheat formula with a minimum of 51% winter wheat – the recipe also includes corn and malted barley. The initial run was distilled in January 2000 and the label has since received considerable acclaim. “Our Wheat Whiskey was still an experiment for us at Heaven Hill when we first put it up to age,” said Craig Beam. “We suspected it would turn out well, but even we were surprised at how it aged and matured.”
