Mary Dowling Winter Wheat Straight Bourbon is a tribute to one of the most pioneering women in American whiskey history—Mary Dowling, known as the "Mother of Bourbon."

Crafted in small batches and aged in new charred American oak barrels, this straight bourbon delivers richness, elegance, and balance, honoring Mary Dowling’s legacy of resilience and innovation during the Prohibition era.
