Ben Holladay Soft Red Wheat is a bottled-in-bond straight bourbon from the Holladay Distillery in Weston, Missouri. Its mash bill swaps rye for soft red winter wheat (73% corn, 15% wheat, 12% barley), which softens the spice and leans the palate sweet. It is bottled at 100 proof and aged at least six years on site, making it one of the few bottled-in-bond wheat bourbons with that much age. It suits drinkers who want a smooth, low-rye bourbon for sipping neat or on a large rock, and it stands apart from younger wheated bourbons and from the spicier rye-recipe bourbons at the same proof.

Wheated-bourbon fans treat it as a solid, softly sweet sipper with real age behind it. The main knock is the proof, which some find hot neat, and the limited distribution.
Ben Holladay Soft Red Winter Wheat is a bottled-in-bond straight bourbon whiskey from the Holladay Distillery in Weston, Missouri. It follows the original Holladay recipe, with wheat in place of rye. The mash bill is 73% corn, 15% wheat and 12% barley.
It is made in the original stillhouse, barreled in Missouri white oak barrels and aged onsite in iron-clad rickhouses. It is aged 6+ years and bottled at 100 proof (50% ABV). Using soft red wheat often gives a softer, sweeter taste than a rye bourbon, which typically adds spice. Soft red wheat has lower protein levels, red bran and minimal gluten, and bourbons made with it have a soft, smooth finish.
To be labeled Bottled-in-Bond, a whiskey must be the product of a single distiller in a single season. It must be aged at least 4 years in a federally bonded rickhouse and bottled at 100 proof in the place it was distilled. This bourbon is also classified as a Real Missouri Bourbon under a 2019 state law. That law requires the whiskey to be mashed, fermented, distilled, aged and bottled in Missouri, aged in oak barrels made in the state, and made with corn grown in the state.
