“The bourbons, filled with Buffalo Trace’s mash recipe #1, were put away to age on October 27, 2009 in new barrels with staves that were seasoned for 36 months and 48 months,” Buffalo Trace explained in a press release this morning. “Most barrel staves air dry for six months, but these oak staves were allowed to season for much longer in hopes the barrels would offer a unique flavor, different than standard barrels.” “The 48 month seasoned stave barrels created a more mellow taste and holds less flavor from the wood,” stated Master Distiller Harlen Wheatley. This whiskey is not as
well balanced as the 36-month seasoned bourbon, the
taste is more mellow with a slightly richer nose and
holds more flavor from the wood. This experiment was
bottled at 90 proof.
