Buffalo Trace Distillery - 'Kosher - Wheat Recipe' Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey (750ML)

Buffalo Trace Distillery produced this Wheat Recipe Bourbon in a partnership with the Chicago Rabbinical Council (cRc).

This Kosher spirit was aged in specifically designated Kosher barrels. In order to satisfy Passover requirements, these barrels were sold to a non-Jewish executive in a ceremony witnessed by a representative from the cRc. After aging for seven years, this Wheat Recipe Bourbon was bottled at 94 proof after ensuring the bottling lines were cleaned beforehand and that no contact was made with non-Kosher spirits.

Tasting Notes:

Nose: Rich aromas of dark honey, apple, peach, orange peel, marshmallow, oak, cinnamon, and clove, with hints of licorice, apricot, and roasted oak. Warm and complex.

Taste: Rich honey, vanilla, citrus, peach, cinnamon, and oak, with dark honey, dried apricots, and spices like cinnamon and nutmeg. Fruity and complex for a wheated bourbon.

Finish: Lightly oaky and sweet with honey, peach, cinnamon, and cocoa powder, evolving into candied citrus peel and a roasted, fruity sweetness.
