Parker's Heritage collection is a series of rare, limited edition American whiskeys offered as a tribute to sixth-generation Master Distiller Parker Beam for his 50+ years of distilling experience. Parker has been practicing his family craft of distilling, ageing and selecting some of the world's most critically acclaimed bourbons and American whiskeys since he began working alongside his father at Heaven Hill Distilleries in 1950.
This year's release from Heaven Hill Distillery is slightly different from previous, the 2014 release is a wheat whiskey, aged for 13 years. The barrels used for this release were actually from the very first run of what later would become Bernheim Original Straight Wheat Whiskey.
