Ten Distillations, One Wheat
Most vodkas stop at five distillations; Harlen Wheatley took Buffalo Trace's wheated-whiskey obsession into the vodka column, distilling red winter wheat ten times for a delicacy that still carries wheat character. The result has collected 55 awards — including Double Gold at the New York World Spirits Competition — while staying true to its Kentucky roots.
