Description
Abraham Bowman Release No. 14 Wheat Bourbon 9-Year is a Bourbon from A. Smith Bowman Distillery in Fredericksburg, Virginia, bottled at 94 proof (47% ABV). The Abraham Bowman Limited Edition Collection is the distillery’s experimental, small-output line, where Virginia’s oldest continually operating distillery explores how mashbill, maturation, and finishing reshape its whiskey.
A wheated bourbon expression, this release swaps rye for wheat as the secondary grain, yielding a softer, rounder profile that contrasts sharply with the distillery’s standard rye-forward bourbon. It is a clean test of how a single mashbill change reshapes texture and sweetness while every other variable is held in place.
With no published per-release tasting notes, the profile follows the distillery’s house character: this experimental bourbon leans on the warm vanilla, caramel, and toasted-oak tones that years in charred Virginia barrels dependably produce, framed by the maturity its age and warehouse time provide.
Produced in very limited quantity as part of the long-running Abraham Bowman Limited Edition Collection, this 2016 release is allocated, hard to find, and seldom seen on shelves. Each numbered entry occupies a fixed place in the series, making the collection a natural target for collectors who track the distillery’s experimental output release by release.
