Buffalo Trace 1994 14 Years Fine Grain Oak Barrel Bourbon Whiskey 7th Release 2009 Experimental Collection 45.0% Vol. - rare and unique Bourbon Whiskey from the legendary Buffalo Trace distillery!
This very rare vintage 1994 14 years old Buffalo Trace Experimental Collection Single Barrel Bourbon Whiskey was distilled at 12. July 1994, matured 14 years and 9 months in a Fine Grain Oak Bourbon Barrel until its bottling on 7. May 2009 without adding dyes with 45,0% Vol. The maturing took place in Warehouse K on Floor 3 and this nearly 15 year old single barrel whiskey shows in an impressive way the influence of the trees with the wood used for the barrel, because fast growing trees have coarser wood grains, while slow growing trees produce finer wood. After more than 14 years of aging, the slow growth of fine-grained wood concentrated the sugar and aromas deep in the oak and gave this bourbon an extra dose of caramel and vanilla. The bourbon is rich and sweet with an almost syrupy character and has a nice balance of aromas and complexity.
These special dark amber colored Bourbon Whiskey was the 7th release of the Buffalo Trace Experimental Collection in 2009 and only 1 barrel was being bottled. This single barrel bourbon whiskey is one of the very rare rarities from Buffalo Trace s Experimental Collection and 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.
