Buffalo Trace Milroy's Barrel Pick #18-054

Buffalo Trace Milroy's Barrel Pick #18-054 40% 70cl

We’re delighted to share our second barrel pick from celebrated Kentucky bourbon maker, Buffalo Trace! Exactingly selected by our in-house whiskey experts in collaboration with the distillery team, this 2015-distilled bourbon offers a deliciously fascinating take on longer-aged bourbon. Buffalo Trace has been making whiskey for over 200 years, so the team knows a thing or two about crafting flavour. The high-corn signature mash bill packs in a rich sweetness, while the cask influence over nine long years has woven through deep oak spices and even tobacco notes. We're proud of offer all 252 bottles of this remarkable whiskey as a Milroy’s exclusive.  

Tasting notes: 

Nose: Warm butterscotch, toffee and honeyed orchard fruits jump from the tasting glass first, ahead of cinnamon, cumin and a subtle dash of herbal mint. Freshly rolled cigars provide a sumptuous backdrop.  

Palate: Thick, dense and treacly, there’s a touch of aromatic oak in with a rich nuttiness and a shelf-load of baking spices. Milk chocolate, coconut and vanilla custard build through the elegant texture, while liquorice, rye bread, and an earthy menthol note add complexity. 

Finish: Long and gently warming, with lingering woody spice notes.
