Buffalo Trace O.F.C. Bourbon 2004 Vintage

O.F.C. takes its name from the Old Fashioned Copper distillery — the original name of the site that became Buffalo Trace — and the O.F.C. Vintage series is the distillery's tribute to that heritage: bourbon from a single marked distillation year, released only when it is judged ready. This release was laid down in 2004 and bottled after a long maturation in Buffalo Trace's historic warehouses, presented in a hand-cut crystal decanter with inlaid copper lettering and housed in a wooden display box with a provenance card recording its details.
In the glass it shows deep mahogany, with a nose of dark caramel, seasoned oak, dried cherry, and pipe tobacco. The palate follows with toffee, dark chocolate, vanilla bean, and baking spice over a firm oak backbone, easing into a long, gently drying finish of leather, cocoa, and antique wood.
Vintage-dated O.F.C. decanters sit at the very top of Buffalo Trace's output and rarely surface twice, making this a landmark gift or a centerpiece for a serious bourbon shelf. Pair it with other Buffalo Trace allocations at Liquor Geeks — E.H. Taylor, Eagle Rare, and Weller among them. Ships to most US states. Adult-signature required at delivery.

Why Liquor Geeks recommends it
This is bourbon as a heritage piece: whiskey from a single marked distillation year, laid down in 2004 at Buffalo Trace Distillery in Kentucky and bottled after a long rest in the distillery's historic warehouses. The O.F.C. name nods to the Old Fashioned Copper distillery, the original name of the site, and the presentation honors it with a hand-cut crystal decanter, inlaid copper lettering, a wooden display box, and a provenance card recording its details. In the glass it is deep mahogany, opening on dark caramel, seasoned oak, dried cherry, and pipe tobacco, then toffee, dark chocolate, and baking spice over a firm oak backbone before a long, drying finish of leather and cocoa. At 90 proof it invites slow, attentive sipping. This is a bottle for the collector or the serious sipper, not a first bourbon or a cocktail base. We carry it because vintage-dated O.F.C. releases rarely surface twice, and when one does, it deserves a home where it will be opened slowly and appreciated.
Pairs well with
- Dark chocolate — Its bitter cocoa echoes the dark chocolate on the palate and the cocoa in the finish.
- Aged gouda — The cheese's nutty, caramelized crystals mirror the bourbon's toffee and dark caramel notes.
- After-dinner maduro cigar — A maduro's earthy sweetness meets the pipe tobacco, leather, and barrel char that carry through the finish.
