It is a benchmark release in the Buffalo Trace Antique Collection that commands respect from every serious collector.

Tasting Notes

Nose: Intense and inviting aromas of rich dark cherries, pipe tobacco, and molasses melt into polished antique leather, espresso bean, and deep toasted oak.

Palate: A viscous, mouth-coating powerhouse of dark chocolate fudge, stewed blackberries, cinnamon bark, and heavy caramelized brown sugar balanced by assertive, well-aged charred barrel notes.

Finish: Exceptionally long and roaring with warming spice, drying cedar, lingering bitter cocoa, and a touch of menthol alongside sweet cured leather.
