Tasting Notes

Single barrels from the warehouse Colonel Taylor built, bonded at 100 proof. More oak and more concentration than the small batch, and one of the most sought-after regular releases Buffalo Trace makes.

Nose

caramel, tobacco, dark fruit, oak

Palate

butterscotch, leather, pepper, dry wood

Finish

very long, drying, oak-led

Best enjoyed neat.
