Holladay Soft Red Wheat Rickhouse ProofUtilizing wheat in a bourbon mash bill often yields a mellower and more saccharine flavor profile compared to a rye based bourbon, which typically imparts a spicier taste. Soft Red Wheat boasts lower protein levels, red bran, and minimal gluten in comparison to other types of wheat. Bourbons crafted with Soft Red Wheat provide a gentle and seamless finish, as the name implies.
