Description
Buffalo Trace has released Seasoned Wood, a wheated bourbon under the E.H. Taylor brand. This unique wheated bourbon is a Bottled in Bond (BiB) bourbon, requiring a distillation season and distiller at a single distillery, aged in a federally bonded warehouse under U.S. government supervision for at least four years, and bottled at exactly 100 proofs. The BiB label must clearly identify the distillery where it was distilled and bottled, if different. Sazerac EH Taylor’s Seasoned Wood is aged in oak barrels, drawing its unique flavor from the wood of the barrels, complementing the spicy undertones and citrus flavors of the fine sipping bourbon.
Tasting Notes
Nose: new tennis balls, fresh cut wood, and golden raisin notes intermingle with macerated plum and dark cherry, and oatmeal raisin cookie.
Taste: immediately salty, tannic, and heavily peppered. The tannic notes are not to be outdone by the incredibly bitterness of the dram.
Finish: A fair amount of oak, butterscotch, and allspice that leans heavily on the nutty side. Oak is ever present throughout, but not to the point of overburdening the palate.
