Mellow Corn is produced in accordance with a unique set of regulations that define Straight Corn Whiskey. It is distilled from a mash of at least 80 percent corn and aged for four years in a once-used bourbon barrel. Compared to the deep amber color created by the newly charred oak barrels in the production of our other bourbons and American whiskeys, the used barrel results in a lighter, straw-colored spirit. Heaven Hill Distillery is one of the few remaining producers of this unique whiskey. The flavor profile – full-bodied and textured – offers a softly spiced sweetness. The finish is sweet and chewy like a Barbadian Rum.
