Buffalo Trace Single Oak Bourbon
For bourbon lovers who are looking to step up their game when it comes to tasting and being able to distinguish the nuances from different barrels, Single Oak Project Bourbon from Buffalo Trace is an incredible education. The project began in 1999 when Buffalo Trace picked 96 trees with different wood grains and divided them up, yielding 192 unique selections. Since 2011, a handful of the bourbon from those barrels has been released every three months, ending early this year. Get your hands on a few and see if you notice the variations that range from different recipes, varying stave seasoning, or just what warehouse they were stored in.
