Heaven Hill Unveils 2025 Heritage Collection 19YO Wheat Whiskey

Heaven Hill Distillery announced today the release of Heaven Hill Heritage Collection 19-Year-Old Kentucky Straight Wheat Whiskey.

Each spring, this annual, highly limited release features some of the distillery’s oldest inventory of aging whiskey.

Each expression in the collection features one of the six traditional American Whiskey mashbills produced by Heaven Hill. This 2025 edition is Heaven Hill’s wheat whiskey mashbill, comprised of 51% Wheat, 37% Corn, 12% Malted Barley. It comes bottled at 100 proof.

With an age statement of 19 years, this release is made up of 277 barrels produced in August and September of 2005, that were aged on the 5th and 6th floors of rickhouse Y.

To date, it is the oldest wheat whiskey released by Heaven Hill.

On the nose is seasoned oak and honey sweetness followed by elements of clove and nutmeg, the distiller reports. On the palate are aged oak and baking spices, particularly cloves. These are followed by notes of cinnamon graham crackers. The finish is maple syrup and caramel sweetness along with tannic elements adding a peppery tingle.

“This 19-year-old Kentucky Straight Wheat Whiskey is especially unique, as a product with this mashbill at this age offers an exceptional depth and complexity that is rarely seen,” says master distiller Conor O’Driscoll. “It truly represents the high standard that Heaven Hill is known for and is a great example of how craftsmanship and patience can pay off when you’re willing to wait for the highest-quality product to come from the Whiskey-making process.”

As with previous releases, the Heaven Hill Heritage Collection 750-ml. bottle comes accompanied by a premium box in signature Heaven Hill blue. The Heaven Hill Distillery seal is prominently positioned on the box, strip stamp and label, and will mirror that of Heaven Hill Bottled-in-Bond and the recently launched Heaven Hill Grain to Glass line. A signature of the Heaven Hill Heritage Collection, specific attributes such as warehouse site location, production date, mashbill percentages, and other designations are noted prominently on the packaging.

Heaven Hill Heritage Collection 19-Year-Old Kentucky Straight Wheat Whiskey launches nationally and internationally on a limited basis with the suggested retail price of of $299.99. It begins shipping in early March 2025.
