Buffalo Trace Kosher High Rye Bourbon
(Kentucky)

Notes from the Distillery:
In partnership with the Chicago Rabbinical Council (cRc), Buffalo Trace Distillery produced this Rye Recipe Bourbon Whiskey. Made with the same high quality grains as Buffalo Trace Bourbon Whiskey, 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 witness by a representative from the cRc. After aging for seven years, this Rye Recipe Bourbon was bottled at 94 proof after ensuring the bottling lines were cleaned beforehand and that no contact was made by non-Kosher spirits. Released after Passover each year, this Rye Recipe Bourbon is bold and independent, celebrating its heritage from America’s oldest continually-operating distillery.

Tasting Notes: 
The balanced taste of this Rye Recipe Bourbon is smooth, yet complex.

Awards/Reviews:

"I’m surprisingly happy with how this bourbon turned-out. This sounds simplistic, but it truly is a slightly amped-up Buffalo Trace with a little extra floral sweetness, fruitiness, oak, and cinnamon with little to no extra heat. The additional sprinkle of oak and cinnamon spice in the Kosher Rye Recipe adds a little more body and fragrance to the “dish”, and it makes a real difference." - The Whiskey Shelf

"At seven years old, there is ample oak and leather woven throughout. The whiskey's fruit notes are its highlight, bringing a nice balance to the oak and injecting much needed dimension." - Breaking Bourbon
