Description
Fresh off the recent launch of its Prohibition Collection, today Buffalo Trace is lifting the curtain on its 2023 Antique Collection.
The Buffalo Trace Antique Collection (BTAC) is an annual release of limited-edition, highly sought-after whiskies produced by the Buffalo Trace Distillery.
Buffalo Trace is a renowned American whiskey distillery known for producing a wide range of whiskies, including bourbon and rye, under various brand names. Its most notable whiskey is perhaps Pappy Van Winkle, however, the distillery is also the home of popular whiskies such as Blanton’s, Eagle Rare, Weller and E.H. Taylor.
The BTAC is typically released in the fall of each year and consists of several different expressions, each with its own unique characteristics.
The whiskies in the collection are highly regarded by collectors, enthusiasts and connoisseurs due to their exceptional quality, rarity and complexity.
The cask-strength rye expression of the Buffalo Trace Antique Collection carries an age statement of “over six years,” and tends to have something of a cult following of specific fans among the Antique Collection bottles.
Unsurprisingly, this expression is all about delivering the most robust flavors from Buffalo Trace’s rye whiskey mash bill.
Tasting Notes
Nose: This powerhouse packs a ton of flavour. It’s essentially uncut and unfiltered Sazarac rye, with trademark rye hitting you on first impression.
Palate: Intensely peppery, with lingering black peppery spiciness that also evokes some of the fruitiness of freshly cracked peppercorns.
Finish: The heat level is dialed in pretty well, offering a strong backbone of warmth without seeming particularly overwhelming.
