Buffalo Trace Experimental Collection Peated Bourbon review: Gentle on the smoke, it's a pleasing fusion of classic bourbon and peated malt whiskey characteristics. bourbon buffalotrace cocktails
In a classic bourbon mash bill, malted barley tends to play the role of silent partner. Whereas corn and rye provide the majority of the grain-derived flavor profile that bourbon is known for, barley’s role isn’t always very well understood by the average bourbon consumer.
So essentially, BT has simply fused those peated malt flavors onto a bourbon base, rather than the typical malt whisky or blended scotch whisky. Said whiskey was distilled and barreled in Nov. 2012 in a batch of only six barrels, which have now aged for almost 10 years. They were stored on low floors of warehouses C and D, and proofed down to 45% ABV before bottling. So with that said, let’s get to tasting and see how this peated curiosity plays out.
On the palate, the first thing that jumps out at you here is actually a strong, roasty char–the smoke has really amplified this characteristic, but the overall smoke profile doesn’t tend toward the more tangy, vegetal and maritime impression typical of scotch. Rather, it stays sweeter and warmer, making the roast come off like sweet coffee produced by oily French roast beans. Tobacco is also a notable player here, with cigar box and mild caramel and vanilla working in conjunction as well.
