TWCP / Buffalo Trace Single Barrel XIV


Our next single barrel that we chose has arrived!
TWCP Single Barrel - Buffalo Trace Bourbon Volume XIV...$22.99
Buffalo Trace has always been one of our favorite Bourbons, that is why we are on our 12th barrel. This particular barrel was a real stand out when we tasted it a few months back. It is always interesting to taste single barrels and the difference between them. We felt this barrel was superior to the others in the batch. It has a lot of vanilla and sweet honey on the nose. The flavor leans towards toffee and caramel. The finish lets you know you are drinking a great bourbon, it is spicy and lingering. What a bargain!

Is it as good as the one from last fall?
That was an incredible pick!

I like to think it is, this one was a unanimous decision.

Yeah I'm dipping into my beer money. I look at it as increasing my odds in the whiskey rewards club.

Question- I was going through my collection of buffalo trace from TWCP single barrel. I have a sticker marked XII from May 2015 and this one mark XIV from May 2016. Did I miss XIII? I thought it may be bad luck.

We had ordered two barrels at one time and I believe what happened is the XIII ending up getting bottled first and came in before XII. I checked online orders and it looks like we had XIII back in December. I think we had them on the shelf at the same time for a while.

Ok. Thanks for the reply. They are both excellent.

Found some XIII at our Ballwin location, had it sent over to Forsyth if you have any interest.

Thanks for looking into that for me. I will stop by and pick one up. I'm drinking the xiv and its another great barrel. I try to keep one bottle from ever barrel you select. Not to put down the regular BT but twcp barrel is great. Thanks for another great one.
