Unveil the artistry of Southern whiskey-making with Fiddler Encore Wheated Bourbon Whiskey, an extraordinary limited-release from ASW Distillery in Atlanta, Georgia. Crafted from a high-wheat mash bill and aged 7 years in new American white oak barrels, this refined spirit is then finished in a medley of secondary casks—Cognac, Madeira, Maple, Port, Rum, and Sherry—adding remarkable depth and character to every sip.
This small-batch bourbon showcases ASW’s commitment to traditional craftsmanship and bold experimentation. With a mash bill of 51% corn, 45% wheat, and 4% malted barley, it delivers an exceptionally smooth mouthfeel, enriched by the varying cask influences. Bottled at 46% ABV (92 proof) and non-chill filtered, this expression offers a true, unaltered whiskey experience.
The bottle itself is a visual tribute to music and tradition, with a violin-shaped label, elegantly designed to reflect the Encore’s place as “The Show Stopper” of ASW’s Fiddler series.
