Green River is a historic distillery first opened in 1885, located in Owensboro, Kentucky, about 2 hours west of Louisville on the banks of the Ohio River. Shuttered since Prohibition, it was once home to famous brands such as Ezra Brooks, Old Medley, Mellow Corn, and Kentucky Beau. The distillery was resurrected in 2014 and laid down its first barrels in nearly a century in 2016. In 2022, the distillery was purchased by Bardstown Bourbon Company.

Their Wheated Bourbon, aged a minimum of four years, leads with a beautiful peach and caramel aroma coupled with apricot and cinnamon. On the palate youll find toffee, pastry and hazelnut that guide toward a honeyed finish thats smooth and balanced. A wonderful take on a classic Kentucky mashbill of 70% Kentucky-grown corn, 21% wheat, and 9% malted barley, the wheated expression lends itself to easy drinking while holding its own distinct character.
