Buffalo Trace Single Barrel Select Bourbon

Davidson’s store pick, Barrel 483. Nose of baking fruit pastries, apples and pears with melted sugar. Very complex flavours, brown sugar and vanilla is replaces by toasted oak is replaced by a linger of cinnamon and baking spice. Very dry, somewhat spicy finish that feels like raw cinnamon and lingers.This is easy drinking, complex, and finishes with a punch, three contrasts that combine my favorite elements of bourbon. My fav. Of the Davidson’s store picks

Smooth, rich and aggressive in all the right ways. It’s enough of a difference and enough of level up over the regular Buffalo Trace that it’s worth the extra cash.

This is a WW&W (Louisville) store pick from 2018. Nose: vanilla, oak, dark fruit Palate: butterscotch, oak, honey, just a little burn Finish: orange, tea, smooth Basically a more balanced and enhanced Buffalo Trace. Excellent.
