Wheated Bourbon is growing in popular demand for its creamy, buttery finish. Wheat & Spire is made from 51% corn, 45% wheat, 4% malted barley, then aged in charred American White Oak barrels. We honor the tradition of distillation & aging to the letter. After aging, we add a twist – a French Oak spire, seasoned and toasted imparting peppery, sweet flavors, and notes of butterscotch, floral spices, and peppercorn.

Oak & Eden was birthed out of an ideal for innovation. We believe authority is released when a creator creates, and we believe everyone carries the spirit of creation in them. Because of that, we pioneered a precious technique that would become the lifeblood of Oak & Eden; in-bottle finishing™.
In-Bottle Finishing™
Wood; it's what makes whiskey taste like whiskey. When someone prefers a certain flavor in a whiskey, they are really saying they like the naturally occurring flavors that come from the barrel wood the whiskey was aged in.
At Oak & Eden, we follow traditional distillation and aging to the letter, aging our whiskeys for at least three years in American Oak barrels.
We break tradition in the finishing (or double barrel) process, where instead of putting our fully aged whiskey in a second barrel to add more flavor coming naturally from the wood, we place in the bottle a Spire; a spiral-cut piece of oak fashioned from the same species and treatment as barrel oak.
This allows our whiskey to "finish" or flavor naturally, producing rich, sweet flavors that could only come from the power of wood.
Nose
Rich with butterscotch, complemented by delicate floral spices and a light peppery note that hints at the French Oak influence.
Palate
Creamy with a buttery finish, characteristic of wheated bourbons. There’s a nice balance of peppery sweetness from the French Oak spire, combined with subtle malt sweetness. The butterscotch flavor comes through, adding a smooth, grain-forward depth to the profile.
Finish
Spicy and peppery, with a lingering warmth that settles into a soft, sweet aftertaste.
