Buffalo Trace Liquor Geeks Barrel Select #140 is a hand-selected single barrel store pick of Kentucky straight bourbon, bottled at 90 proof in a generous 1-liter format. Chosen by the Liquor Geeks team from barrel 18-D-14-AA-6-001-140, this private selection yielded just 204 one-liter bottles, each carrying the Liquor Geeks barrel sticker. It brings together the smooth, approachable style Buffalo Trace is known for with the added depth and individuality that make store picks so sought after.

The nose opens with butterscotch, ripe cherry, and vanilla bean dusted with cinnamon. The palate is exceptionally smooth, with brown sugar, honey, and toasted oak building into gentle baking spice, and the finish is long and warm with sweet vanilla, caramel, and soft oak on the tail. Distilled from Buffalo Trace's low-rye Mashbill #1, Barrel Select #140 is a limited, one-time release for Buffalo Trace fans and bourbon collectors alike.

Why Liquor Geeks recommends it

This is one single barrel of Kentucky straight bourbon, hand-selected by our team from barrel 18-D-14-AA-6-001-140 and bottled at 90 proof in a generous one-liter format. Distilled from Buffalo Trace's low-rye Mashbill #1 and aged in new charred oak, it keeps the smooth, approachable house style while showing the individuality that makes store picks worth chasing. Expect butterscotch, ripe cherry and vanilla bean on the nose, then brown sugar, honey and toasted oak building into gentle baking spice on the palate, and a long, warm finish of vanilla, caramel and soft oak. It is friendly enough for a Buffalo Trace fan looking for a more individual pour. It is also a limited, one-time release of just 204 bottles, each wearing the Liquor Geeks barrel sticker, so collectors will want one on the shelf. We picked it because it is sweet, balanced and easy to pour neat, with enough backbone at 90 proof to carry an Old Fashioned.

Pairs well with

  • Pecan pie or bread pudding — The bourbon's butterscotch, brown sugar and caramel echo the toasty sweetness of a classic Southern dessert.
  • Cherry-glazed smoked pork — Ripe cherry on the nose and toasted oak on the palate tie neatly into a sweet, smoky glaze.
  • Bourbon tasting night with friends — As a one-off single barrel with a distinct butterscotch-and-cherry profile, it makes a great conversation pour alongside other bourbons.
