Buffalo Trace has set aside their Warehouse X as the site to hold their Experimental Collection of whiskies. Over 5,000 barrels are aging there and occasionally they will bottle and release their experiments. This bottling, released in 2016, was created using barrels made by the Independent Stave Co. They were created like their other standard barrels for Buffalo Trace, but prior to charring, the barrels were exposed to infrared light waves.

This bottling underwent short & medium wave frequency at 70% power for 15 minutes. It was then given a level #1 char before the whiskey entered the barrel. This is a limited edition bottling of 4 barrels. It is sold in 375ml sized bottles.

Tasting Notes

"The first sips evoke comforting tastes of childhood like candied apples, caramel popcorn, Juicy Fruit gum, Honeycomb cereal, and marshmallows. There's a honeysuckle-floral aroma and brown sugar sweetness topping this off. A strong tartness balances out the sweetness, with a cinnamon finish that fades out with a slight burn. A large ice cube brings out more of the floral, spice, and orchard fruit notes. "
