Buffalo Trace Bourbon Whiskey 1.75L

The 1.75-liter Buffalo Trace is the handle of the flagship from the distillery that makes Pappy, Blanton's, Weller, and Eagle Rare — the everyday pour, in the size for the bar cart that gets used. The Frankfort distillery on the Kentucky River is the oldest continuously operating distillery in America, running through Prohibition on a medicinal license, and it takes its name from the ancient buffalo migration path that crossed the river there; Harlen Wheatley has been master distiller since 2005. Buffalo Trace bourbon is Mash Bill #1 — the low-rye recipe, believed around 10% rye or less — sour-mashed with limestone water from the site, aged around eight years in new charred oak in the distillery's century-old brick warehouses, batched from no more than 40 barrels, and bottled at 90 proof. Bourbon Culture, tasting it against Bulleit, found it sweeter and more caramel-driven, with vanilla, brown sugar, toffee, and a soft oak backbone, a hint of mint and dried fruit, and a medium, warming finish. Honest note: the handle is the format that vanishes first when Buffalo Trace gets allocated, because it's the best cost-per-ounce on a bourbon that's built for Old Fashioneds and Manhattans by the round — grab it when you see it. For the party, the home bar, or the drinker who's settled on a house bourbon. The buffalo's path, by the handle.
