Bulleit Frontier Whiskey, has announced the launch of its first-ever Bottled-in-Bond release.

Bulleit Bottled in Bond (50% ABV) is a 7 Year Old Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey, which was produced under the strict standards of the Bottled-in-Bond Act of 1897.

For a whiskey to be classed as Bottled-in-Bond, it must meet a strict set of rules, including being the product of a single distillery from a single distilling season, aged for a minimum of four years and bottled at 100 Proof/50% ABV.

Bulleit Bottled-in-Bond, is said to embody the brand’s signature high-rye mash bill delivering a bold, distinctive flavour, which is rich and complex.

Commenting on the launch, Jesse Damashek, Senior Vice President of North American Whiskeys at Diageo, said: “The past year has been a defining one for Bulleit, and the release of our first Bottled-in-Bond bourbon adds a meaningful new chapter to our story. Bulleit Bottled-in-Bond is more than a celebration of craftsmanship, it’s a testament to our commitment to innovation and to showcasing the exceptional quality of whiskey crafted at our distillery in Shelbyville.”

Bulleit Bottled in Bond, will be available later this month from retailers across the US, for a RRP of $54.99.
