Winner of 6 awardsColonel EH Taylor
An excellent brand owned by Buffalo Trace that uses similar methods and recipes to the ones Colonel E. H. Taylor introduced and improved during his time as a bourbon distiller in the late 1800s. The Single Barrel release is made with specially selected barrel exclusively aged in Warehouse C, which Taylor built himself in 1881! What a guy.

The best bourbon I have ever tasted and I have tasted plenty in my 70 years!
There is a reason which you don't often see the EH Taylor Single Barrel out on the shelf. It's just a fantastic bottle of bourbon. I'm fortunate in that I have a go-to liquor store in which the GM always puts any of the very few bottles of EH Taylor back for me. If you see a bottle, don't think about it, just buy it.
I try to always have EH Taylor in my bar. It's a solid, quality bourbon and I've yet to come across a bad bottle. It has just a nice touch of heat, but the alcohol is not up front. I also really enjoy the lingering toffee I'm still tasting some time after the last swallow. A good bourbon with good balance between sweet and spicy and highly accessible. This is a good choice to share with someone not fully accustomed to drinking whiskey.
Through my time of enjoying bourbon, I’ve bought bourbons that I felt were go as well as bad. When I came across this, I thought I would give it a try. I was totally impressed by it soft, slightly sweet Carmel with a pear with a oaky flavor. I have to admit it was one of the better bourbons I’ve enjoyed. After I had my 3rd dram of it, I did something I normally don’t do. I went back and bought another bottle of it. Seeing that there was two left I bought them. Since then I’ve gone to where I am storing them with a few other bourbons and scotch’s for future enjoyment. I’m always tempted to open another one. Seeing how hard it is to find and get, I’ll hold off for awhile longer and sit back and know what I have. Only to wish I could have bought more while they were easier to get.
A very well balanced Bourbon that is gentle on the nose, smooth on the palate and has a lingering finish. None of the flavors overpower the other. On the nose you get a careful hint of toffee, raisins and brown sugar with a bit of sweetness, which I credit the maize for. The fumes are not overwhelming at all. The palate is very smooth and oily with some spice and a bit of that smoky coal from the charred barrel. While this Bourbon is rolling on your tongue it is very gentle. When you swirl down the brew and breathe out you do however get a small explosion of flavor, spice, dried fruits, toffee and lastly the sweet vanilla. Once done the finalist is the oak welcoming your next sip. Great Bourbon!
