This time-honored distillery, founded in 1856, is the oldest in Missouri and continues to operate on its original site, steeped in history and tradition. The distillery sits atop active limestone springs first charted by Lewis and Clark in 1804, providing a unique source of water essential for crafting this exceptional bourbon.

Tasting Notes
Holladay Soft Red Wheat Bourbon is made using the original Holladay recipe, substituting wheat for rye, which results in a notably softer and sweeter flavor profile. Aged onsite in iron-clad rickhouses and barreled in Missouri white oak barrels, this bourbon develops rich flavors over time. The lower protein levels, red bran, and minimal gluten of the soft red wheat contribute to a smooth, soft finish that lives up to its name.

Bottled-in-Bond Quality
Aged for over six years, Holladay Soft Red Wheat Bourbon is one of the very few bottled-in-bond wheat bourbons available on the market. To achieve the prestigious bottled-in-bond classification, this bourbon must be distilled, aged, and bottled at the same location, ensuring authenticity and quality. Furthermore, it is classified as a Real Missouri Bourbon under a 2019 law, which mandates that all production steps take place within the state, using locally sourced corn and oak barrels.
