The story behind it

The maker

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.

How it is made

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.
