Eagle Rare Bourbon
View Full Description [+ Read More]
Eagle Rare is a wheated-mash-bill bourbon produced at Buffalo Trace Distillery in Frankfort, Kentucky, where extended aging in new charred American oak barrels develops its signature toffee, dry oak, and orange blossom character. Single barrel selection defines the brand's identity, meaning no two barrels are blended before bottling, a practice evident across the 10 Year expressions including the Random Single Barrel Select releases in both 375ml and 750ml formats. Age significantly shapes the range, from the approachable 10 Year - available in standard 750ml, 1.75 liter, and Silver Tube presentations - to the considerably more complex 12 Year. At the apex sits the Eagle Rare 17 Year Old, released under the Buffalo Trace Antique Collection, where nearly two decades in wood produces concentrated dark fruit, leather, and spice that distinguishes it markedly from the entry-tier 10 Year expressions.
