Bulleit Announces Bottled in Bond Bourbon

Bulleit Frontier Whiskey has launched its first-ever Bottled-in-Bond bourbon, distilled and aged at the Bulleit Distilling Company in Shelbyville, KY.

Distilled in spring 2017 — the same year the state-of-the-art distillery opened — and aged for seven years in federally bonded warehouses, this release follows the strict standards of the Bottled-in-Bond Act of 1897.

Packaged at 100 proof, Bulleit Bottled-in-Bond has aromas of spice and toasted oak, a palate of maple sweetness and nutmeg warmth, and a butterscotch finish, the distillery reports.

“Introducing our first Bottled-in-Bond bourbon, made entirely at the Bulleit Distilling Company is a proud achievement for our team,” says Delicia James, lead whiskey blender at Diageo. “With our signature high-rye mash bill and seven years of aging under Bottled-in-Bond standards, this bourbon delivers a richness and complexity we’re excited to share. It’s a whiskey that truly showcases the best of what we do here in Shelbyville — bold, balanced, and crafted with care.”

Going forward, this expression will continue as a limited-time release, with the frequency and timing determined by the Bulleit blending team to ensure each bottling meets the standards of quality and character.

Bulleit Bottled-in-Bond will be available nationwide starting this month, with a suggested retail price of $54.99 for a 750-ml. bottle.
