About this bottle

Introduced in April 2014, the Elmer T. Lee Commemorative Edition pays tribute to the late master distiller emeritus of Buffalo Trace, who passed away shortly before his 94th birthday in 2013. This bourbon originates from the same warehouse levels where Lee selected his namesake single barrel bourbon. As a single barrel bottling, this Commemorative Edition is presented at 93 proof, reflecting Lee's age at his passing. Contributions from this bourbon's sales are directed to VFW Post 4075, a post to which he belonged.

Etta Beatty 4.5

Tastes like caramel, vanilla, and baked apple pie. Makes my mouth water and gives a pleasant tingle on the front of my tongue without any burn.

Janiya Li 4.8

A truly pleasant tasting experience. Given my limited palate, this serves as my benchmark for evaluating all bourbons.

Legend Saylor 4.3

A very pleasant bourbon. Its flavor is lighter but still solid.
