Green River Full Proof Wheated Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey is a smooth and flavorful expression from Green River Distilling Co., crafted in the heart of Kentucky using a traditional wheated mash bill. Made with 70% Kentucky-grown corn, 21% wheat, and 9% malted barley, this bourbon replaces the sharper rye spice with the soft, rounded sweetness that wheated bourbons are known for.
The result is a bright yet comforting whiskey that highlights peach, apricot, and warm pastry notes while maintaining classic Kentucky character. Produced in Owensboro, it reflects the revived Green River style—easy-drinking, approachable, and rich with natural sweetness, yet still complex enough to stand out among traditional bourbons.

Why Liquor Geeks recommends it
This is a wheated Kentucky straight bourbon from Green River Distilling Co. in Owensboro, built on a mash bill of 70% Kentucky-grown corn, 21% wheat, and 9% malted barley. Using wheat instead of rye trades sharp spice for soft, rounded sweetness, and you taste it right away: ripe peach and caramel on the nose, then orange peel, apricot, toffee, fresh pastry, and a little hazelnut on a creamy, honeyed palate. The finish stays smooth, with honey, soft oak, and light cinnamon. It suits anyone curious about what wheat does to bourbon. It is approachable enough for a first wheated bottle and still has the complexity a seasoned drinker looks for. Neat is where it shines, though a few drops of water push the stone fruit forward, and its gentle profile makes a rounder Old Fashioned or Gold Rush. We carry it because it shows off the revived Green River style honestly: easy-drinking and fruit-forward, with enough depth to hold its own among traditional Kentucky bourbons.
Pairs well with
- Warm peach cobbler — The bourbon's ripe peach, apricot, and pastry-like sweetness mirror the fruit and crust of the cobbler.
- Toasted hazelnuts and mild cheese — The subtle hazelnut on the palate and the honeyed, creamy texture complement nutty, gentle flavors without overpowering them.
- Relaxed fireside evening — Its smooth honey, soft oak, and light cinnamon finish makes it an easy, comforting pour to sip slowly.
