Buffalo Trace B&B 'Single Barrel Select' Bourbon
Delicious, drinkable, and affordable bourbon is becoming more and more of a rarity these days, but Buffalo Trace's flagship release continues to nail all three of these important attributes. When we get a chance to pick our own barrel, we try to preserve that holy trinity while also choosing something unique. Barrel #207, bottled at 90 proof, offers everything we love about Buffalo Trace while also adding a little something extra special.
The nose opens with fruity scents of honey crisp apples and sweet cherry with nutmeg, cola, and sweet oak in the background. The palate brings flavors of cherry cola, maple, and a hint of clove before buttery smooth finish featuring sweet oak, leather, and dark chocolate.
Once again, we are pleased to offer this store pick in a standard (750 ml), small (375 ml), and large (1.75 ml) bottlings. Note that this one came with a sticker misprint of "Sazerac Barrel Select" instead of the normal Bitters & Bottles Select.
