Colonel Edmund Haynes Taylor, Jr. is widely considered one of the founding fathers of the bourbon industry, fighting for the Bottled-in-Bond Act of 1897, nearly three decades after he purchased what is now called Buffalo Trace Distillery. During his time, Taylor implemented several innovative methods still used today, including climate controlled aging warehouses
Many of the barrels selected for the E.H. Taylor, Jr. Single Barrel are aged in Warehouse C, which was built by Taylor in 1881 and proven to be an excellent aging warehouse. Each barrel is hand-picked and Bottled in Bond at 100 proof to honor its namesake.
Tasting Notes:
Tasting Notes:
The aroma carries lightly toasted oak, with dried figs and butterscotch. One sip brings flavors of sweetness balanced with tobacco and dark spices. The finish is just long enough to prepare the palate for another sip. The bottle itself is a likeness to Colonel Taylor's original design used over a century ago.

"Chocolate and coffee cream with vanilla pod and hints of tobacco. Abundance of red berry fruit freshness and a touch of umami. Balanced mouthfeel intensity with a lingering finish."
92 Points, Tried & True, Excellent/Highly Recommended - Ultimate Spirits Challenge 2021
"A powerful and rich bourbon with telltale flavors of sweet corn pudding, cinnamon buns, charred oak, and green apple. The finish is dry, complex, and with good length, driving the spice for 20 seconds or more."
94 Points - Wine Enthusiast
"A very sound whiskey that ably demonstrates the small Bottled-in-Bond sector of American whiskey making." -Paul Pacult's Spirit Journal
