Cathead Distillery Expands Its Estate Collection with a New Expression

— May 7, 2025 — Lifestyle
Cathead Distillery has introduced a noteworthy addition to its portfolio with the Estate Collection Straight Wheat Whiskey. The launch is considered both a milestone for the Mississippi-based producer and an intriguing option for whiskey enthusiasts.

The Estate Collection Straight Wheat Whiskey represents a fully localized production process as Cathead Distillery cultivated the grain, aged and bottled the spirit within the state. The 100% wheat whiskey was aged for seven years in #3 charred new oak barrels and bottled at 100 proof. The small-batch release offers a flavor profile that blends vanilla, baking spices, toasted marshmallow, and subtle fruit notes, with a creamy mouthfeel and nutty undertones.

Wheat whiskey enthusiasts will find the 100% wheat mash bill noteworthy, as such expressions remain relatively rare compared to bourbon or rye.
