About Amador Double Barrel Wheat Bourbon & Chardonnay
Amador Double Barrel Wheat Bourbon & Chardonnay is a premium wheated bourbon whiskey that blends Kentucky heritage with California innovation. This 86 proof (43% ABV) spirit starts as a high-wheat mashbill (65% corn, 20% wheat, 15% barley) sourced from the esteemed Willett family distillery, aged three years in new charred American oak barrels for notes of brown sugar, nuts, and baking spices, then finished 9-12 months in medium-toast French oak Chardonnay barrels from Napa Valley for added vanilla and creaminess. What makes it special is the double-barrel technique, harmonizing bold bourbon flavors with wine cask elegance, creating a copper-hued, full-bodied pour greater than the sum of its parts. Ideal for bourbon enthusiasts seeking a smoother, wheat-driven alternative to rye-heavy styles, or wine lovers exploring whiskey. At $33.50 for 750ml, it offers exceptional value compared to similar cask-finished bourbons like those from Woodford Reserve or Angel's Envy, delivering Napa sophistication at a mid-shelf price without compromising depth or complexity.

👅 Palate
Rich and full-bodied with a creamy mouthfeel from the wine barrel influence, delivering flavors of cinnamon sugar, honey-roasted nuts, French vanilla, and oak.

✨ Finish
Long, creamy, and satisfying with lingering vanilla and subtle sweetness. A light, sweet oak fade rounds it out elegantly.
