10 Years

Buffalo Trace takes its name from the ancient pathways carved by buffalo through the Kentucky wilderness—a fitting origin for a distillery rooted in frontier heritage. Located in Frankfort, Kentucky, this storied producer crafts Eagle Rare 10 Years as its flagship expression, built on a reputation for reliability and approachability.

Matured for at least ten years in new American oak, this bourbon follows a low-rye mashbill recipe—roughly 10% rye—that yields a soft, balanced spirit without the sharp edges of higher-rye bourbons. Bottled at 45% ABV, it strikes an intentional middle ground between intensity and drinkability.

The whisky presents a dark honey hue with aromas of caramel, biscotti, and candied apple. On the palate, it unfolds gently: sweet without cloying, with toasted oak and subtle cinnamon notes weaving through. This is a bourbon built for everyday drinking—equally at home neat, with ice, or introducing new drinkers to the category without pretension.
