E.H. Taylor Small Batch Bourbon Whisky 75 cl

Product Information

The taste is warm on the mouth with a peppery spice, but it has all the right notes and a perfect blend of caramel and vanilla sweetness along the wood and oak tones. https://www.pastemagazine.com/drink/whiskey/buffalo-trace-bourbon-rye-buying-guide-prices-brands-value/ Released in 2011, this super rare bourbon is a hat tip to the Colonel who pioneered the souring method used in making this juice. The Colonel would make sour mash bourbon over the course of three to five days by keeping cooked mash in a “drop tub.” While being held within said tub, the PH would lower, readying it for fermentation and distillation. Plan to find a local banker to front you a loan if you want to find you way into one of these bottles. I’ve literally heard of folks trading automobiles for these bottles….plain nuts!

The exact ratio of mash bill is undisclosed, but it is speculated to contain 10% or less rye, above 51% corn and malted barley. However, it shares the same mash bill as Eagle Rare and George Stagg, Jr. Age Statement Tier 2 (T2)– The difference between Tier 3 and 2 is that Tier 2 items are typically more expensive and may only be released once a year. Both have notes of leather and oak, but Single Barrel added a welcomed element of spice where Small Batch left a little to be desired. Neither bottle has an age statement, but Small Batch is thought to be over 7 years old and Single Barrel is thought to be 7-12 years old. The mash bill used in this expression is the same as the mash of Stagg, Jr., and Eagle Rare, aged for around seven years.

With its affordability, you shouldn’t miss this whiskey. It’s one of the best Buffalo Trace expressions, carrying a colorful history (with the distilling process done during the civil war). The E.H. Taylor Small Batch Bourbon is a blend of different whiskeys made from premium mash bill, and it is produced in accordance with the Bottled-in-Bond Act of 1897. The bourbon is aged for a minimum of four years in new charred oak barrels, which gives it a rich and complex flavor profile. The Colonel, known as the “Father of the Modern Bourbon Industry” was an innovator who first entered the whiskey business in 1869 when he bought a small distillery that he’d go on to name “O.F.C.” That distillery was bought a decade later by another famous name in bourbon, George T. Stagg. The term “O.F.C.” will probably sound familiar to some, but stands for “old fashioned copper” with a very coveted brand of bourbon bearing it’s namesake from Buffalo Trace. At the time, his use of copper distillation tanks was a new phenomenon in the industry, one of many things the Colonel would bring to the whiskey business. The use of Bottled-in-Bond infers a certain level of quality, rooted in a history that many do not necessarily understand. Bourbon pricing for rare and allocated bottles is difficult to understand, let alone to explain. So many factors go into play with what a retailer suggests as the retail price and where it ends up from there.We give this whiskey from EH Taylor a 3-star rating. We consider it as a mid-shelf bourbon; its cost is quite affordable, making it an excellent everyday bourbon. The good thing here is it didn’t disappoint. The nose is aromatic, the palate is full of flavors, and the finish is smooth and satisfying. Second Try Some of these bottles have variations in their prices from store to store and state to state, but typically, this is the most fair price you will pay for these bottles. However, based on EH Taylor Small Batch price and flavor profile, it is aged from 6 to 10 years before being bottled in 100 Proof (50% ABV). Ownership & Distillery
