Buffalo Trace Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey – 700ml
A Liquid Legend: Taste the History of America’s Oldest Distillery.
Follow the path of the pioneers with Buffalo Trace, a bourbon that honours the rich history and spirit of the ancient buffalo who carved a trail through the Kentucky wilderness. Crafted at the most award-winning distillery in the world, this 700ml bottle contains a true icon of American whiskey, celebrated for its deep character, remarkable smoothness, and rich, complex taste.
From America’s Oldest Distillery: Buffalo Trace is distilled, aged, and bottled at America’s oldest continuously operating distillery—a National Historic Landmark that has been making legendary whiskey for over 200 years. This is the hallowed ground where bourbon history was made, surviving floods, fires, and even Prohibition (by producing whiskey for ‘medicinal purposes’). That legacy of resilience and uncompromising quality is captured in every single bottle.
The Finest Kentucky Ingredients: Our bourbon is crafted using the finest Kentucky and Indiana corn, selected rye, and superior malted barley. We use the same iron-free, Kentucky limestone-filtered water that has been used for centuries. After distillation, the spirit is aged in new, charred American oak barrels in historic warehouses until it reaches a peak of maturity. While there is no set age statement, each small batch of Buffalo Trace is tasted and approved by our Master Distiller before bottling, ensuring a consistent and exceptional taste.
Tasting Notes:
- Nose: A complex and inviting aroma of vanilla, mint, and molasses, with hints of spice and toffee.
- Palate: A beautifully smooth and well-rounded palate. Notes of brown sugar and spice give way to toffee, dark fruit, and anise.
- Finish: A long and deep finish that is both smooth and satisfying, with a lingering, serious depth.
How to Enjoy It: Buffalo Trace is a wonderfully versatile bourbon. Its rich flavour makes it perfect for sipping neat or on the rocks. It also creates an exceptional foundation for classic bourbon cocktails, making a truly outstanding Old Fashioned or a rich and flavourful Whiskey Sour. It’s a premium, yet accessible, bourbon that’s become a firm favourite here in Cradley Heath and around the world for those who appreciate a genuine taste of bourbon history.
