Old Dominick Distillery has announced the release of a new addition to its whiskey lineup: a 7-Year Wheat Whiskey Single Barrel. This marks the third mash bill from the Memphis-based distillery, known for its focus on quality and regional heritage.
A Rare Return of Wheat Whiskey to Memphis
The new release is particularly notable for being the first wheat whiskey distilled in Memphis since Prohibition. Made using water from the Memphis sands aquifer, this whiskey offers a distinctive flavor profile compared to Old Dominick’s existing bourbon and Tennessee whiskey.
This is the first wheat whiskey to be distilled in Memphis since prohibition. The 7-year age statement reflects our patience and commitment to quality. It’s noticeably different than our bourbon and Tennessee whiskey. It’s softer, with notes of maple syrup, honey, hazelnut, and mocha.
– David Valentine, Lead Distiller at Old Dominick
Limited Single Barrel Picks Rolling Out This Spring
Old Dominick will release the Wheat Whiskey Single Barrel in limited quantities, available primarily through retail partners in the brand’s current markets throughout the Spring and Summer. Select online sales will also be available via partnerships with Bourbon Clubs nationwide. The bottle will be priced between $60 and $70, depending on the market.
Available at the Distillery Starting April 11
Starting April 11, the 7-Year Wheat Whiskey Single Barrel will be available for purchase directly from Old Dominick Distillery and retail outlets throughout Memphis and the Southeast.
We’re beyond excited to introduce our Wheat Whiskey to the fans of Old Dominick and hopefully add a few new ones in the process. This release is a testament to our dedication to quality and craftsmanship.
– Clark Schifani, Sales Director at Old Dominick Distillery
