Blinking Owl - Straight Bourbon
We are proud to say that Blinking Owl whiskies are some of the FIRST EVER to be legally distilled in Orange County, California. Cheers to a sip of history!
We begin with organic California corn, malted barley, and some of Santa Ana’s award-winning water to formulate the base mash for our straight Wheated Bourbon whiskey. After distillation we allow it to age for a minimum of 2 years in New American pre-char toasted then charred white oak casks. Once a barrel is filled it is left to rest in our barrel warehouse.
Blinking Owl Wheated Bourbon was awarded a Silver medal in the 2019 Sunset International Spirits Competition.
Our Wheated Bourbon is markedly soft and delicate whiskey with a sweeter quality that drinks more mature than its age. It has notes of vanilla, caramel, and baking spices, that play out very delicately on the palette.
