Tasting notes

This deep amber whiskey has a complex aroma of vanilla, mint and molasses.

Pleasantly sweet to the taste with notes of brown sugar and spice that give way to oak, toffee, dark fruit and anise.

The finish is long and smooth with serious depth.

Great

"Really like this bourbon"

Jesse M. (5/5)

One of the best

"You can’t go wrong with BT. It’s my go to and Tipxy has it at a good price."

William K. (5/5)

Whiskey of My Choice

"I've been drinking this bourbon for years. Enough alcohol by volume to put you on the straight and narrow. Although I prefer to sip it neat, you can also use this bourbon to make other delicious treats. You'll only be left wanting more by the aroma of vanilla and caramel as well as the spicy, sweet, buttery flavor of brown sugar, butterscotch, and oak. Excellent value for the money."

Dan (5/5)

The first sip of love

"The fourth release in my exclusive monthly bourbon club is Buffalo Trace. It was preceded by Elijah Craig 12 Year, Woodford Reserve, and Blaton's. Love at first sip for BT. Very impressed. The fact that this bourbon has received such great praise doesn't surprise me in the slightest."

NormanP12 (5/5)

Slowly Inhale and Sip

"Normally, I don't enjoy this kind of beverage. Buffalo is fantastic and has a variety of flavors that you must wait for and savor. Slowly inhale and sip. I enjoy taking it easy and sipping it on the rocks. The aftertaste lingers for a while and goes well with foods that have a gamey flavor."

Haraki Z. (5/5)

Top-notch bourbon for everyday use

"The bourbon I now prefer most. before trying BT, I had been a long-time Makers Mark drinker. This bourbon is ideal for everyday drinking. cheap without sacrificing quality. like a pool table in terms of smoothness and levelness. nice-looking nose Try it; it's the best buy for the money. My go-to weekend bourbon is Eagle Rare."

Markeiff M. (5/5)

Bourbon of choice Keep a bottle close by at all times.

"This is, quite simply, my favorite and go-to bourbon out of any that I've tried. A variety of fruit and oak characteristics emerge from the sweet, light surgery caramel flavor. This is something I can't get enough of. In comparison to Blanton's and practically all other bourbons, I prefer it."

Z. H. (5/5)

With BTB, You Can't Go Wrong

"Buffalo Trace is a fantastic, flavorful bourbon all around. It surpasses the crude, immature flavors of Maker and Bulleit for me and is the ideal affordable bourbon. Do not misunderstand; Maker's and Bulleit are OK. Bulleits, though, has what I refer to as a "fake bourbon taste"—you can tell it's alcoholic and that it's whiskey, but other than that, there's nothing unique about it. Additionally, Maker's offers a comparable flavor in a more attractive packaging. BT tastes exactly like bourbon should, and the pricing is reasonable. It is unbeatable. It's one of the obvious options for a nice bourbon, but if you don't keep an eye on yourself, it can go down quickly."

A. W. (5/5)

Even on discount, it is not worth it.

"Without any spice or depth, it is just too syrupy sweet. For a less expensive sipping bourbon that I can also use for mixed drinks, I typically purchase makers mark or bulleit. Because it was on sale and I hadn't tried it in years, I bought it. Very disappointed because it is too sweet to drink on its own and barely works as a mixer because I have to change mix formulae to take the sweetness into account. To give it a little more spiciness, I'm adding a small amount of rye."

Blyth-Marco (2/5)

My top choice given the cost.

"For the money, this is unquestionably my favorite bourbon. Excellent quality for less than $25 is unbeatable. Caramel, vanilla, and maize flavors are nicely masked by a pleasant spiciness as the proof. excellent old fashioned."
