Bulleit Frontier Whiskey makes a significant portfolio addition

— February 20, 2025 — Marketing
Bulleit Frontier Whiskey has introduced its first-ever Bottled-in-Bond bourbon. The spirit was distilled in Spring 2017 at the Bulleit Distilling Company in Shelbyville, Kentucky, and aged for seven years.

Bulleit Frontier Whiskey's new expression adheres to the strict standards of the Bottled-in-Bond Act of 1897. The designation holds the spirit to a fairly high standard and makes the product highly appealing to whiskey enthusiasts seeking premium, well-crafted spirits. With a high-rye mash bill, the brand's inaugural Bottled-in-Bond bourbon offers a bold flavor profile featuring notes of spice, toasted oak, maple sweetness, and a smooth butterscotch finish.

Bulleit Frontier Whiskey is making its Bottled-in-Bond bourbon available for a limited time, which enhances the appeal and collector's value of the offering. Jesse Damashek, Senior Vice President of North American Whiskeys at Diageo, emphasized the uniqueness of the spirit: "Bulleit Bottled-in-Bond is more than a celebration of craftsmanship, it’s a testament to our commitment to innovation and to showcasing the exceptional quality of whiskey crafted at our distillery in Shelbyville.”
