Buffalo Trace Experimental Collection 100% French Oak Barrel Aged Bourbon. Image courtesy Buffalo Trace.This Bourbon was matured for around 10 years in French Oak casks, and the nose is intensely oaky and thick with notes of molasses, grilled beef, honey, and a hint of maple. The taste is thick, spicy, and intense with pepper, hot fudge ice cream topping, molasses, and a touch of oak. The finish is long and spicy with hints of anise and fudge. (May, 2015)
