Crafted with a wheated mash bill and aged in toasted barrels, this expression brings a velvety richness and approachable sweetness that makes it truly stand out.

FAQ

What makes this a “wheated” bourbon?
Instead of rye, this bourbon uses wheat as the secondary grain, giving it a softer, sweeter character and a creamy mouthfeel.

Is this a limited release?
While not officially labeled limited, the Mary Dowling lineup is produced in small batches, making availability selective.

Who is Mary Dowling?
Mary Dowling was one of the most influential women in bourbon history, running a distillery during Prohibition by relocating operations to Mexico. Her story of resilience is honored through every bottle bearing her name.

How is this different from other Mary Dowling releases?
Unlike the Tequila Barrel Finish which leans spicy and herbal, this Winter Wheat version is all about softness, sweetness, and mellow complexity.
