OLD ELK DOUBLE WHEAT STRAIGHT WHISKEY

TWO-FOLD THE TASTE | One for the wheat-freaks

A grain most whiskeys overlook, wheat imparts some of the finest flavors you can find in a glass—if it’s treated right. Old Elk has mastered the way of wheat already, celebrating its sweet softness and nutty round notes in our Wheated Bourbon Straight Bourbon Whiskey and Straight Wheat Whiskey. Now we’re building on those triumphs with a new wheat-forward whiskey: Old Elk Double Wheat.

Part of our Master’s Blend series, Old Elk Double Wheat takes whiskey where it’s never gone before. Master distiller Greg Metze has created a “mashbill within a mashbill,” seamlessly layering Old Elk’s 95% wheat whiskey with our wheated bourbon, for a final ratio of 71.5% wheat, 25% corn, and 3.5% malted barley. We can guarantee you’ve never tasted whiskey like this.

Despite the smooth texture and soft flavors that wheat imparts, this whiskey is no pushover. At a precise 107.1 proof, Old Elk Double Wheat shows its strength without overwhelming your palate. Multi-dimensional and more complex than the typical wheater, this whiskey will impress the most demanding drinkers while welcoming all curious newcomers.

MORE IS MORE

Old Elk Double Wheat multiplies the smooth, soft appeal of wheated whiskey in a single, one-of-a-kind pour. Combining two extreme-wheat whiskeys—Old Elk Straight Wheated Bourbon, with 45% wheat, and Old Elk Straight Wheat Whiskey, with 95% wheat—this category-bending blend offers a flavor experience that no other whiskey can match.

Richly spiced on the nose, with notes of butterscotch and cinnamon toast, the whiskey opens up into a creamy, vanilla-sweet palate. It oozes with buttered brown sugar and ginger-dusted pecans, rounded out by a satisfying finish of robust oak.
