Laws Whiskey House Recently Released SUPER WHEATER

— January 23, 2025 — Lifestyle
Award-winning Denver-based distillery Laws Whiskey House recently announced the launch of a high-wheat spirit that celebrates Colorado’s distinctive terroir. Dubbed SUPER WHEATER, this expression joins the company's ORIGINS Series.

Laws Whiskey House crafts its high-wheat spirit from hand-selected barrels of Laws Four Grain Bourbon. SUPER WHEATER ages between five to 12 years. The aromatic quality of the expression leads with its warm notes of shortbread, almond, and orange marmalade while eventually captivating with a blend of peanut brittle flavors, glazed lemon cake, cinnamon, cardamom, and orange pekoe tea.

Al Laws, founder and president of Laws Whiskey House, shares about the release: "SUPER WHEATER is a whiskey made for those who honor tradition but live in the moment – pour a glass, slow down, and enjoy the rich character of this remarkable grain."
