Bottled in Bond – Kentucky Straight Rye Whiskey

Bold. Historic. Unmistakably Rye.
Crafted from a traditional rye mash bill and aged in century-old warehouses at Buffalo Trace Distillery, Colonel E.H. Taylor Straight Rye is an homage to the bold, spicy whiskey of America's early distilling days. Bottled in Bond under the 1897 act that Colonel Edmund Haynes Taylor Jr. helped champion, this unblended rye delivers robust character, smooth complexity, and exceptional quality.

Made without corn, this expression leans into the classic peppery spice of rye balanced with rich sweetness and oak-driven depth.
