Shane Baker and Dr. Pat Heist founded Wilderness Trail Distillery in Danville, Kentucky, a town locals know as “the City of Firsts.” The state-of-the-art distillery—Danville’s first legal distillery since Prohibition—sits along the Wilderness Trace, a historic region through which the great American explorer Daniel Boone blazed a trail in the 1700s.

Unlike most American whiskeys, Wilderness Trail implements a sweet mash fermentation process using all fresh ingredients for each batch, rather than adding acidic backset (a.k.a. spent grain) from a previous batch.

Wilderness Trail Kentucky Straight Wheated Bourbon is their flagship whiskey, born out of a burning desire to challenge traditional bourbon-making techniques. This distinctive bourbon is crafted with less corn and a higher percentage of “middle grains” to showcase the subtleties and nuances of grain flavor. 

Mashbill - 64% Corn, 24% Wheat, 12% Malted Barley
