Happy Friday! This is a quick post to compare two widely available American Bourbons; Buffalo Trace and Bulleit. I thought I would share my thoughts on these two, since I find a wide variety of opinions on the net over them and talking about them might help my readers understand my taste profile a bit better. Buffalo Trace is the name sake of Buffalo Trace Distillery. I believe it has been operating under different names for a very long time, possibly as far back as the end of the 1700s. I really have not researched enough to comment intelligently here, but suffice it to say, they know their stuff. Thet make a large variety of bourbons, including Eagle Rare, George T. Stagg, Van Winkle, Weller, and Blanton’s to name a few. They started releasing Buffalo Trace Bourbon by that name in 1999. It uses a low rye mash bill. I understand it is their #1 mashbill.
