Spirit of the Month: Buffalo Trace Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey
Rich Flavor. Smooth Finish. A True Classic.
This month, Jordan’s Liquors is proud to feature Buffalo Trace Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey as our Spirit of the Month.
A favorite among longtime bourbon drinkers and those just beginning to explore American whiskey, Buffalo Trace offers a wonderful balance of richness, smoothness, and approachable flavor. It is the kind of bottle that works just as well for a quiet evening at home as it does for sharing with friends or giving as a thoughtful gift.
A Bourbon with a Rich Heritage
Buffalo Trace is the flagship bourbon of the historic Buffalo Trace Distillery in Frankfort, Kentucky. Crafted with quality ingredients and aged in new, charred oak barrels, it reflects generations of Kentucky bourbon-making tradition.
Bottled at 90 proof, Buffalo Trace delivers enough depth and character to satisfy experienced bourbon drinkers while remaining smooth and accessible for someone trying bourbon for the first time.
Tasting Notes
Buffalo Trace pours a beautiful deep amber color and opens with inviting aromas of:
- Vanilla
- Mint
- Molasses
- Warm oak
On the palate, you’ll discover a pleasant sweetness featuring brown sugar and spice, followed by layers of:
- Toffee
- Dark fruit
- Oak
- A subtle hint of anise
The finish is long, smooth, and full of depth—one of the many reasons Buffalo Trace has earned such a loyal following.
How to Enjoy Buffalo Trace
One of the best things about Buffalo Trace is its versatility. There is no wrong way to enjoy it, but here are a few suggestions:
Neat
Pour it into a whiskey glass and enjoy it at room temperature. This is the best way to experience the bourbon’s complete aroma, flavor, and smooth finish.
On the Rocks
A large ice cube gently chills the bourbon and softens the alcohol while allowing its caramel, vanilla, and oak notes to remain present.
In a Classic Cocktail
Buffalo Trace is an excellent choice for timeless bourbon cocktails, including:
- Old Fashioned
- Manhattan
- Whiskey Sour
- Boulevardier
- Kentucky Mule
Its balanced flavor stands up well in a cocktail without overpowering the other ingredients.
A Great Bottle for Any Occasion
Buffalo Trace is an easy bottle to recommend when you need something for:
- Building or expanding your home bar
- Hosting friends and family
- Bringing a gift to a dinner or gathering
- Celebrating a birthday or milestone
- Relaxing with a quality bourbon after a long week
Whether you are already a bourbon enthusiast or simply looking for a dependable bottle to try, Buffalo Trace is a true classic that deserves a place on your shelf.
