Bulleit Mesquite Smoked Malt Straight Bourbon

Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey | Mesquite-Smoked Malt Mash Bill | 93 Proof (46.5% ABV)

Process & Profile

Bulleit Mesquite Smoked Malt Straight Bourbon is an experimental release from Bulleit Distilling Co., developed to explore smoke-forward flavor within a bourbon framework. This expression uses a distinctive mash bill that incorporates mesquite-smoked malt, alongside corn and distiller’s malt, introducing savory depth while remaining compliant with straight bourbon standards.

According to Bulleit, the mash bill consists of 65% corn, 30% mesquite-smoked malt, and 5% distiller’s malt. The smoked malt brings barbecue-style smokiness reminiscent of summer grills, while the high corn content preserves sweetness and balance. Bottled at 93 proof, this bourbon is designed to be expressive yet approachable, bridging traditional bourbon and smoked malt influences.
