Description
Colonel E.H. Taylor Jr. Barrel Proof Bourbon Bottled in Bond 750ml
Colonel E.H. Taylor Jr. Barrel Proof Bourbon is an uncompromising, high-proof expression crafted for serious bourbon enthusiasts who value strength, depth, and authenticity. Produced at the historic Buffalo Trace Distillery, this rare release honors the enduring legacy of Colonel Edmund Haynes Taylor Jr., one of the most influential figures in American whiskey history.
Bottled straight from the barrel and made in accordance with Bottled-in-Bond Act standards, this bourbon is aged for a minimum of four years in a federally bonded warehouse and bottled at its natural barrel strength. The result is a bold and expressive Kentucky straight bourbon that delivers raw character without compromise.
On the nose, Colonel E.H. Taylor Jr. Barrel Proof Bourbon opens with powerful aromas of cooked berries, dark caramel, toasted vanilla, and seasoned oak. Subtle floral notes add balance, while the elevated proof signals the intensity and depth to come.
Tasting Notes and Flavor Profile
The palate is rich and full-bodied, led by deep caramel and dark sugar, followed by toasted oak, dried fruit, and warming spice. As the whiskey develops, notes of black pepper and vanilla emerge, coating the mouth with layered complexity while remaining impressively balanced for its strength.
Finish
The finish is long, warm, and deeply satisfying, with lingering impressions of oak, spice, and dark fruit. Whether enjoyed neat or with a few drops of water, this barrel proof bourbon continues to evolve, revealing new nuances with every sip.
Why It Stands Out
Released in extremely limited quantities and increasingly difficult to find, Colonel E.H. Taylor Jr. Barrel Proof Bourbon is a must-have for collectors and connoisseurs seeking an authentic, barrel-strength Kentucky bourbon. Its Bottled-in-Bond designation, historic lineage, and uncompromising proof make it one of the most respected high-proof expressions in the E.H. Taylor lineup.
