Since 1935, Heaven Hill Distillery has been dedicated to crafting the highest quality Kentucky Whiskeys. This led us to start at the very beginning — the seed. Each year, our Master Distiller partners with fellow family-owned seed company Beck’s Hybrids to hand-select a unique corn seed varietal that best grows in Kentucky.

Beck’s 6269 was the corn seed varietal chosen for our 3rd edition and was grown by Peterson Farms on one of two sites in Nelson County, Kentucky. This Bourbon whiskey features a mashbill with higher secondary grain content than our traditional Wheated Bourbon mashbill. The distillate went into the barrel at 107 proof, has been aged over six years at our Cox’s Creek rickhouse site, non-chill filtered and bottled at barrel proof, 107.8 proof.
