Buffalo Trace 1992 14 Years Cabernet Franc French Oak Barrel 4th Release Experimental Collection 2008 Bourbon Whiskey 45.0% Vol. - special rarity and unique Bourbon Whiskey from the legendary Buffalo Trace distillery!
This very rare and extraordinary vintage 1992 14 years old Buffalo Trace Single Barrel Bourbon Whiskey was distilled on 13th May 1992, stored for more than 6 years in a American white oak barrel until 19th August 1998 and was matured for more than 6 years in a French Oak Cabernet Franc barrel until its bottling on 26th February 2007 without the addition of dyes at 45.0% vol. / 90 proof. It was stored in warehouse I on floor 1 and this over 14-year-old Buffalo Trace Single Barrel Bourbon Whiskey from the Experimental Collection impressively demonstrates the influence of the heavy French Cabernet Franc red wine and the balance of the bourbon character. Only 1 barrel of this special dark mahogany-coloured bourbon whiskey was bottled as the 4th release of the Buffalo Trace Experimental Collection in the year 2008.
This Buffalo Trace Single Barrel Bourbon Whiskey is now one of the particularly rare rarities from the Buffalo Trace Experimental Collection, is absolutely unique with its exceptional double maturation and is almost impossible to find.
For more than two decades, Buffalo Trace has been experimenting with recipes and different processes to explore the effects of whiskey maturation and taste. Currently, there are more than 4,000 experimental barrel whiskeys of different ages in the warehouses of Buffalo Trace. Each of the barrels has unique characteristics and experimental changes in the mash calculation, wood species, barrel toasts and more. The experimental whiskey is periodically bottled and is available in limited quantities as a small limited edition, and the label contains all the facts about this unique whiskey. Due to the small available quantity, they are filled in bottles with 375ML content. These special Bourbon whiskeys from Buffalo Trace of the Experimental Collection are only delivered to a few selected dealers in the USA, are almost unavailable in Europe and are one of the absolute rarities among bourbon lovers and connoisseurs even at the special auctions of Bonhams, Krüger or Christies.
