Buffalo Trace Distillery proudly announces the addition of Colonel E. H. Taylor, Jr. Barrel Proof Rye Bourbon Whiskey to the esteemed Colonel E. H. Taylor, Jr. Collection. This new, uncut, unfiltered rye recipe bourbon is aged at Buffalo Trace Distillery and bottled at a robust 126 proof. Honoring the legacy of its namesake, Colonel Edmund Haynes Taylor, Jr., a pioneering figure known as the “Father of the Modern Bourbon Industry,” this limited-edition release is crafted with the highest standards of quality and innovation. Taylor, who purchased O.F.C. Distillery (now Buffalo Trace Distillery) in 1869, revolutionized the industry with his modernizations and instrumental role in the passage of the Bottled-in-Bond Act of 1897.
The Colonel E. H. Taylor, Jr. Barrel Proof Rye Bourbon Whiskey delivers a harmonious blend of barrel proof strength and rye spice. Its nose presents an inviting aroma of white pepper, nutty undertones, fresh floral, and candied apricot. The palate reveals a complex array of flavors, balancing sweet dried stone fruit with pepper and oaky dryness, culminating in a lasting, honey-sweet finish. “Bourbon enthusiasts know that there is no experience quite like tasting a whiskey in its truest, untouched form - straight from the barrel,” remarked Buffalo Trace Distillery Master Distiller Harlen Wheatley. This expression joins the prestigious E.H. Taylor, Jr. Collection, renowned for its exceptional quality and heritage.
