Tasting Notes
"Buffalo Trace Bourbon shows a medium intensity on the nose with light spice (particularly cinnamon), vanilla, caramel, apples, and a touch of leather. The bourbon is soft on the palate with a creamed corn taste profile and a gentle sweetness. The finish is tangy and offers a medium spice note. A great everyday dram."
