E.H. TAYLOR, JR.

E.H. TAYLOR, JR. BARREL PROOF

Straight Kentucky Bourbon Whiskey

Crafted from hand-selected barrels and bottled straight from the cask. Uucut and unfiltered at over 125 proof, this bourbon captures the bold character of whiskey as it was made in Colonel E.H. Taylor, Jr.’s time, before Prohibition. Aged in warehouses constructed over a century ago under Taylor’s watchful eye, the taste is smooth, yet powerful and uncompromising, just like its namesake.

TASTING NOTES

The aroma of cooked berries meets the nose, followed by a rich caramel and slightly floral smell.

The taste is bold and full of spice that fills the mouth with a distinct flavor of toasty vanilla, dried oak and pepper.

The finish is long and satisfying with a powerful rye character and lingering hints of fruit.

UNIQUE FACTS

E.H. Taylor, Jr. Single Barrel bottle's design faithfully recreates Colonel E.H. Taylor, Jr.’s original label and shape from over a century ago - a tribute to his pioneering spirit and dedication to authenticity in every detail, inside and out.

In 2006, a tornado damaged Buffalo Trace’s historic Warehouse C, exposing a batch of barrels to the elements while repairs were made. Kentuckian sun, wind and weather subtly interacted with the aging bourbon during that time, creating unparalleled and once-in-a-lifetime expression - E.H. Taylor, Jr. Warehouse C Tornado Surviving.
