Frank August Case Study 05 Kentucky Straight Wheated Bourbon
Frank August Case Study 05 is a limited-edition Kentucky Straight Wheated Bourbon that showcases the nuanced complexity of wheat in the mash bill. Distilled and aged in Bardstown, Kentucky, this small batch expression comes from just five hand-selected barrels. The result is a bold, full-bodied bourbon that invites whiskey lovers to explore a softer, more rounded edge of American whiskey while staying true to its high-proof strength at 52.25% ABV.
On the nose, it opens with notes of caramelized brown sugar, baked apples, and toasted oak, followed by hints of warm spice and honeyed cereal grains. The palate is rich and layered, offering flavors of vanilla bean, cinnamon, and butterscotch that evolve into a lingering finish with a touch of dried fruit and charred wood. The wheat adds a smooth, mellow character that balances the boldness of the alcohol, creating a well-rounded drinking experience.
Best enjoyed neat or with a splash of water, Frank August Case Study 05 is a study in contrast—soft wheat meeting high proof, heritage mingling with experimentation. Whether you're collecting or savoring, this release adds thoughtful depth to any bourbon lover’s shelf while delivering a tasting journey worthy of its name.
