This rare vintage 1993 16 years old Buffalo Trace Experimental Collection Single Barrel Bourbon Whiskey was distilled on 4. April 1993 and after 8 years and 8 months it was refilled into another Bourbon barrel on 12. December 2001 and matured there again for over 7 more years until its bottling on 15 August 2009 without the addition of dyes with 45.0% Vol. In these experiment, the effect of aging bourbons in two different barrels was examined. Bourbon was aged in new, charred American white oak barrels for two different lengths of time. The ageing took place in Warehouse I on Floor I/6 and this single barrel whiskey, which is 16 years and 5 months old shows a rich flavor that fully expresses the oak character with a very strong, powerful finish. These special amber colored Bourbon Whiskey was the 7th release of the Buffalo Trace Experimental Collection in 2009 and only 2 barrels was being bottled. This single barrel bourbon whiskey is one of the very rare rarities from Buffalo Trace s Experimental Collection, and with its extraordinary double maturation it is absolutely unique and almost impossible to find.
For more than two decades, Buffalo Trace has been experimenting with recipes and different processes to explore the effects of whiskey maturation and taste. Currently, there are more than 4,000 experimental barrel whiskeys of different ages in the warehouses of Buffalo Trace. Each of the barrels has unique characteristics and experimental changes in the mash calculation, wood species, barrel toasts and more. The experimental whiskey is periodically bottled and is available in limited quantities as a small limited edition, and the label contains all the facts about this unique whiskey. Due to the small available quantity, they are filled in bottles with 375ML content. These special Bourbon whiskeys from Buffalo Trace of the Experimental Collection are only delivered to a few selected dealers in the USA, are almost unavailable in Europe and are one of the absolute rarities among bourbon lovers and connoisseurs even at the special auctions of Bonhams, Krüger or Christies.
