Rocks glass with a small ice cube. Pours a nice amber color. Nose: Vanilla with some fall baking spices. Taste: Smooth vanilla and caramel with some spice. As the small cube of ice melts more oak starts to pop. Finish is moderate with oaky char that slowly fades. Buffalo Trace is special to me because it is a favorite of my dad’s. I don’t see him as often as I like but I know if I am sipping on some Buffalo Trace there is a chance he is doing the same. This is a good sipper and I am lucky to live in an area where this is readily available at a good price.
