A rare and fascinating entry in Buffalo Trace's celebrated Experimental Collection, this expression pushes the boundaries of traditional bourbon by incorporating peated malt into the mash bill — a technique more commonly associated with Scotch whisky. The result is a uniquely layered straight bourbon that bridges two great whisky traditions.
Tasting Notes
Expect the classic Buffalo Trace sweetness — vanilla, caramel, and baked fruit — interwoven with a subtle but unmistakable thread of peat smoke. The sweet mash process adds a clean, rounded character, while the extended maturation brings depth and complexity rarely found in experimental releases.
