An iconic bottled-in-bond rye of unmatched depth
This bottled-in-bond straight rye whiskey honors the legacy of Colonel E.H. Taylor, Jr. with its remarkably smooth and complex profile. It delivers a rich, sweet entry of dried fruits and vanilla that gives way to a bold wave of pepper, dill, and oak spice.

Colonel Edmund Haynes Taylor, Jr. is widely considered the father of the modern bourbon industry, fighting passionately for the Bottled-in-Bond Act of 1897. Today, Buffalo Trace honors his legacy by producing this highly decorated whiskey series in Frankfort, Kentucky.
This exceptional straight rye is produced at the Buffalo Trace Distillery using historic bottled-in-bond standards. It is crafted from a unique mash bill consisting of only rye and malted barley, omitting corn entirely to deliver a pure rye expression.
