Traveller Whiskey Blend No. 40 Full Proof

About

Traveller Whiskey Blend No. 40 Full Proof is an ambitious American blend born from the collaboration between musician Chris Stapleton and Buffalo Trace Distillery's master distiller Harlen Wheatley. This full proof expression (60.5% ABV) unleashes a more intense character than the original blend, delivering greater depth and power while maintaining an approachable foundation. The nose presents fresh apple and citrus notes alongside subtle vanilla and caramel undertones, complemented by hints of rye spice and black pepper. On the palate, toasted oak, caramelized sugar, and baking spices take the lead, with a surprisingly soft mouthfeel despite the elevated proof. The finish is pleasingly balanced, with toffee and dark fruit notes that fade gracefully, leaving a warm, lingering impression.
