This small batch bourbon is named after Colonel Edmund Haynes Taylor, an incredibly important figure in bourbon's history from the 1800s who owned a whole host of distilleries and innovated production methods which are still used today. It's only right that the Colonel EH Taylor Small Batch lives up to his name by being absolutely amazing.
Caramel apples, fresh corn and cloves. Butterscotch sneaks in after a while.
More corn sweetness, mixed with slight spiciness of rye and cinnamon.
Medium and very rich with creamy vanilla.
A really great small batch bourbon.
Not a big bourbon fan. I would probably do anything to get another bottle of this one! One of my top five.
The Colonel EH Taylor series are all exceptional whiskies, it just gauls me that what's $45 is £100 in the UK. I hope the price comes down soon.
I have tried many of the best bourbon and rye whiskeys produced in the great state of Kentucky. EH Taylor SB is the quintessential bourbon that I recommend to all non-bourbon whisky drinkers and novice bourbon drinkers looking to expand their understanding beyond the mass production brands. This is my favorite bourbon. quin·tes·sen·tial adjective representing the most perfect or typical example of a quality or class.
Amazing. Complex but not overwhelming, smooth, very smooth! Bufflao Trace continues to amaze me! Cheers!
If you're in the UK, and can't get this for US prices, I'd have to say that this is a great example of what Buffalo Trace can do. Great oak notes from the cask. Sweet and full of flavor. I have to say this is the bottle that made me fall in love with bourbon. For all the hype of the Van Winkle line, there is something special in this bottle as well. If you can get your hands on the Barrel Proof, it's also a gem. Either way, you get what you pay for here. At 50% ABV, it's a true expression of what Kentucky offers to the world!
