This bourbon hails from America's oldest continuously operating distillery and is the namesake, as well as the largest product of the Buffalo Trace Distillery. Buffalo Trace is sufficiently elusive, often proving hard-to-find, thereby adding to its appeal. Yet, it's known and found the world over in almost every cocktail bar and home bar. The distillery also produces some of the most sought after bourbons in the world, including Elijah Craig Small Batch Bourbon Whiskey and Larceny Small Batch Bourbon.
A bit of trivia for you cocktailers out there. What other cocktail bar staple is made at the same distillery? Well, it's Peychaud's Bitters, the mainstay of the famous Sazerac cocktail. And who owns the distillery? The Sazerac Company, of course! It's all coming together now, isn't it?
More importantly, Buffalo Trace's low rye mash bill, double-distilled using a column still, gives it the subtlety necessary to be a wonderful mainstay for bourbon cocktails. Whether in bourbon-forward cocktails like the Old Fashioned or in cocktails where bourbon plays a supporting role like the Sentimental Gentleman, this bottle can help them shine.

Buffalo Trace is made with a mash bill of corn, rye, and barley, double distilled in a column still, and aged for at least 8 years in charred oak barrels. The barrels are carefully selected and blended to ensure consistency and quality, and the resulting whiskey is bottled at 45% ABV. The distillery also offers a range of other bourbons and whiskies, including Eagle Rare, Blanton's, and W.L. Weller.
