Detailed Description
Buffalo Trace Experimental Collection | 19 Year Old Giant French Oak Barrel (1 of 2)
American whiskey typically ages in 53 gallon oak barrels, but these whiskeys matured in 135 gallon barrels, one for 19 years and one for 23 years. Additionally, both barrels were crafted from French oak, and had previously contained some sort of wine. The exact type of wine was lost in the records. Furthermore, these giant barrels underwent a #3 char, varying from Buffalo Trace’s typical #4 char. This experiment was a multifaceted investigation in crafting bourbon.
