This technical description provides an in-depth look at the key characteristics and meticulous production processes that make Heaven Hill a revered choice among whiskey enthusiasts.

Ingredients: Heaven Hill Bottled in Bond 7 Year is crafted from the finest ingredients, including:

  1. Grains: A grain bill predominantly composed of corn, with rye and malted barley, creates a bourbon known for its rich and robust character.

  2. Yeast: A proprietary yeast strain is used during fermentation, shaping the development of unique flavor compounds and the whiskey's overall character.

  3. Water: Kentucky's limestone-filtered water is employed throughout the production process, ensuring purity and enhancing the whiskey's quality.

Distillation: The production of Heaven Hill Bottled in Bond 7 Year follows a meticulous distillation process:

  1. Milling: Grains are finely milled to create a mash, exposing starches for fermentation.

  2. Mashing: The milled grains are combined with water and heated to create a mash. Enzymes in malted barley facilitate the conversion of starches into fermentable sugars.

  3. Fermentation: The mash is transferred to fermentation tanks, where chosen yeast strains initiate fermentation, typically lasting several days. During this time, yeast converts sugars into alcohol and develops key flavor compounds.

  4. Distillation: The fermented mash undergoes distillation in traditional copper pot stills or column stills, concentrating the alcohol content while separating undesirable elements. The resulting distillate is carefully collected and assessed for quality.

Aging: Heaven Hill Bottled in Bond 7 Year undergoes an essential aging process:

  1. Barrel Selection: The distilled spirit is placed in new charred oak barrels, with meticulous barrel selection ensuring each batch achieves exceptional quality.

  2. Warehouse Aging: The aging occurs in Kentucky's aging warehouses, where temperature fluctuations and wood interaction impart unique flavors and complexity.

  3. Aging Duration: This bourbon is aged for a minimum of 7 years, allowing it to develop a mature and well-rounded flavor profile, in accordance with the Bottled in Bond Act requirements.

  • Appearance: The bourbon showcases a deep amber hue, indicative of its extended aging.

  • Aroma: The nose is greeted with inviting aromas of caramel, vanilla, and toasted oak, accompanied by hints of dark fruits and a touch of baking spices.

  • Palate: On the palate, expect a harmonious blend of flavors. Sweet caramel, maple syrup, and dark chocolate notes intermingle with rye spice and oak, creating a complex and full-bodied profile. The mouthfeel is smooth and velvety.

  • Finish: The finish is long and warming, with lingering notes of toffee, cinnamon, and a gentle pepper spice, showcasing the bourbon's depth and complexity.

A new favorite

I happened to snag a bottle in my home town of Boise during a rare release, and really loved it. Luckily I was able to find and order it on Third Base. It's worth every penny.

Four Stars Plus!

As the replacement for the old only sold in Kentucky, 6 Year Green Label, I've enjoyed it. Heaven Hill isn't readily available in Virginia so it takes some work to find it. This new iteration is a little smoother and maybe more refined. All the flavor profiles are still there however, which is a good thing. I was very impressed with how the bottles (I ordered two) were packaged and the service offered by Third Base. Top notch all the way around.
