Buffalo Trace Kosher Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey – Wheat Recipe
$119.99
Crafted in partnership with the Chicago Rabbinical Council (cRc), Buffalo Trace Kosher Wheat Recipe Bourbon honors both tradition and taste. Made using the same high-quality wheat-based mash bill as the beloved W.L. Weller Bourbon, this expression is aged for seven years in barrels specially designated as Kosher. The barrels are sold to a non-Jewish executive before Passover, in a ceremony witnessed by the cRc, and the bourbon is bottled only after the holiday—on clean, certified lines untouched by non-Kosher spirits.
Bottled at 94 proof (47% ABV), this bourbon reflects Buffalo Trace’s legendary craftsmanship while adhering to religious standards. Though not kosher for Passover, it’s a meaningful and flavorful pour available in limited annual releases.

Why Gifted Pour recommends it
For the bourbon lover who keeps kosher, or for a host whose table does, this bottle answers a gifting question that is surprisingly hard to solve well. Made in partnership with the Chicago Rabbinical Council (cRc), it uses the same wheat-based mash bill as W.L. Weller Bourbon and rests seven years in barrels specially designated as Kosher, then is bottled on clean, certified lines. The result pours soft and inviting: honeyed grains, ripe orchard fruit and gentle vanilla on the nose, a smooth, rounded palate of toasted caramel, apple and warm vanilla, and a long, clean finish of spice and mellow oak. At 94 proof it has enough presence to sip neat or with a splash of water, yet it folds easily into a Gold Rush or an Old Fashioned. It suits a Hanukkah gift, a thank-you to a host, or a milestone toast, with one note to share: it is not kosher for Passover, so it belongs on the table the rest of the year.
Pairs well with
- Spiced brisket — The bourbon's warm baking spice and mellow oak finish echo the brisket's seasoning while its caramel sweetness softens the richness.
- Roasted nuts — Toasted oak and caramel notes mirror the roasted, nutty flavors for a simple, kosher-friendly pairing.
- Hanukkah or housewarming gift — Its honeyed, orchard-fruit softness makes it an easy pour for a gathering, and the kosher certification makes it a considered choice for a host who keeps kosher.
