About this bottle

Frank August Case Study 08 Winter Wheated Reserve is the brand's second wheated Kentucky straight bourbon, drawn only from barrels of whiskey distilled in winter. It carries an eight-year age statement, though the barrels sit closer to nine, and it is bottled at barrel strength, 108.8 proof, from eight batches of eight hand-selected barrels each. Wheat in place of rye as the secondary grain gives a soft, creamy body, with dark caramel, baked cherry and vanilla custard around a long, toasted oak finish. It suits collectors who followed Case Study 05 and bourbon drinkers who like a rich wheater at full strength.

How to drink Frank August Case Study 08 Winter Wheated Reserve

Start neat in a Glencairn, then add a few drops of water if the heat at 108.8 proof masks the custard and cherry. One large cube works if you want it cold, but this is a pour to sip slowly rather than mix.
