Wheated Bourbon That Doesn't Taste Like Candy #bourbon #whiskey #review

Is this the most unique wheated bourbon of 2026? Today we are diving into the Castle & Key Cask Strength Wheated Bourbon (Batch 1). This 7-year-old Kentucky Straight Bourbon was blended in 2025 and recently took home Double Platinum honors at the ASCOT Awards. What makes this special? Despite being a wheated bourbon (10% White Winter Wheat), the 17% malted barley and sweet mash process create a fascinating profile. We’re picking up incredible "French Toast" nuances, creamy mouthfeel from the non-chill filtration, and a surprising savory barley punch that sets it apart from the status quo. At 108.2 proof, it drinks remarkably soft with a white pepper finish. If you are visiting the historic Castle & Key distillery in Frankfort, KY, is this bottle worth the $70? Watch to find out why this "savory pastry" profile is a total game changer for wheated bourbon fans! #WhiskeyReview #Bourbon #CastleAndKey #WheatedBourbon #CaskStrength #KentuckyBourbon #WhiskeyTasting #BourbonLife #SpiritReview #CastleAndKeyDistillery #SweetMash #BourbonHunter #WhiskeyGram #Shorts #YourBourbonJourney
