About Wheatley American Vodka
Wheatley American Vodka is a 10x distilled, triple filtered vodka that is so smooth one can sip it straight. Hailing from Buffalo Trace Distillery, the World’s Most Award-winning Distillery, Wheatley is made with the same red winter wheat and limestone water that the Distillery uses in its revered bourbons. Crafted in small batches every time to ensure that each bottle meets the Distillery’s high standards, Wheatley Vodka is, according to the brand’s namesake and Master Distiller Harlen Wheatley, “how vodka is supposed to taste.” Though distilled from red winter wheat, Wheatley Vodka is gluten-free.
