Why Liquor Geeks recommends it
This is a long-aged, barrel-strength Kentucky bourbon from the Buffalo Trace Antique Collection, made at Buffalo Trace Distillery, matured for over 15 years in new American oak and bottled uncut and unfiltered. It suits the experienced bourbon drinker or collector who wants to see what extended maturation and full strength do to a corn-dominant mash bill. On the nose, cinnamon spice and cherry cola sit over leather, rich vanilla and toasted oak, with caramelized brown sugar and dark chocolate underneath. The palate is bold and intense. Caramel and vanilla come first, then toasted oak, earthy spice, leather and a smooth smokiness, with cherry and cola adding fruity contrast. The finish is long and warm, with cinnamon, charred oak and a whisper of dark chocolate. Because each annual release arrives at its own proof and profile, every edition is worth tasting on its own terms. We carry it because this limited-edition bourbon rewards slow, attentive sipping and shows traditional Kentucky whiskey-making at its most uncompromising.
Pairs well with
- Dark chocolate truffles — The bourbon's dark chocolate and brown sugar notes echo the truffles, while its cherry brightens each bite.
- Smoked beef brisket — The bourbon's smooth smokiness, leather and charred oak finish stand up to rich, bark-crusted smoked meat.
- Slow fireside evening — A long, warm, powerful finish of cinnamon and charred oak is made for unhurried sipping on a cold night.

What's the best way to drink it?
Sip it neat from a rocks glass or a Glencairn, and take it slowly. A splash of water softens the spice and brings out cherry and chocolate. It can make an exceptional Old Fashioned, but its best qualities show when you drink it on its own.
