Heaven Hill Grain to Glass Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey is a tribute to pure, transparent whiskey-making — a rare release that celebrates the agricultural origins and meticulous craftsmanship behind every Heaven Hill bourbon. Distilled in 2018 and barreled at 107 proof, this expression matured for six full years in rickhouses W5 and W6 across the 3rd, 4th, and 5th floors of Cox’s Creek, developing depth, warmth, and a complex natural character.

Each year, the Grain to Glass series highlights a single corn seed varietal, emphasizing the connection between seed selection and flavor. For this edition, Heaven Hill chose Beck’s 6225, an heirloom varietal proudly featured on the label to reinforce the brand’s commitment to authenticity and agricultural transparency.

Bottled at 105 proof, non–chill filtered, and made from a unique mashbill, this bourbon delivers a rich, polished profile with layers of nutty warmth, spice, and orchard sweetness. Crafted for collectors and serious bourbon drinkers, Grain to Glass stands as one of Heaven Hill’s most meaningful and educational releases.

The Story

Heaven Hill’s Grain to Glass series is built on a simple but rare philosophy: great bourbon begins with the grain. By selecting a single corn seed varietal each year and documenting it on the label, Heaven Hill invites drinkers to explore how agricultural choices influence aroma, flavor, and texture long before aging begins.

This second edition — distilled in 2018 and matured across prime rickhouse floors — showcases the nuanced depth that comes from intentional grain selection, low barrel-entry proof, and patient aging. Bottled at true barrel proof, it preserves the complexity, oiliness, and structure that bourbon lovers crave.
