Bulleit Expands Line With Aged Bottled In Bond Bourbon
Bulleit Frontier Whiskey, known to most drinkers as simply “Bulleit Bourbon,” has launched its first-ever Bottled-in-Bond bourbon. This whiskey exceeds the statutory, minimum requirement for bonded whiskey of four years old, as it was distilled and aged entirely at Bulleit’s distillery in Shelbyville, Kentucky shortly after the new plant opened in the Spring of 2017. Also in keeping with the Bottled in Bond Act of 1897, the bourbon is bottled at 100 proof.
So, an 8 1/2 year old, 100 proof, selectively batched whiskey coming from Bulleit’s signature high-rye style of bourbon.
With Bulleit Bottled-in-Bond, the brand builds on a series of recent releases that highlight its dedication to advancing the frontier of whiskey. The last year has seen the launch of Bulleit American Single Malt, a significant step into an emerging whiskey category, alongside the introduction of Rye 10-Year-Old, a permanent addition to the range, and the celebrated return of Rye 12-Year-Old after five years, offering a rye with a complex yet approachable character.
Bulleit Bottled-in-Bond will be available nationwide starting February 2025, with a suggested retail price of $54.99 for a 750ml bottle.
