Old Elk Double Wheat Straight Whiskey

Old Elk Double Wheat is a straight whiskey from Old Elk Distillery in Fort Collins, Colorado, a producer best known for its patient slow-cut proofing, which introduces water gradually to keep the spirit's character intact. As the name signals, Double Wheat puts the soft, sweet grain front and center, leaning into wheat harder than anything else in the Old Elk lineup and bottling it at a bold, flavor-forward strength.

In the glass it pours a warm amber and opens with honeyed grain, vanilla bean, and fresh-baked bread. The palate is round and gently sweet, layering caramel, toasted wheat, and orchard fruit over a cushion of baking spice, while the finish stretches long with cinnamon, toffee, and a soft toasted-oak fade that invites the next sip.

Wheat-forward American whiskeys of this caliber are a natural pick for collectors chasing something beyond the usual bourbon shelf, and Double Wheat makes a standout gift for the whiskey drinker who thinks they've tried it all. Pair it with the bourbons and rye whiskeys in the Liquor Geeks American whiskey collection to round out a tasting flight. Ships to most US states. Adult-signature required at delivery.
