The Bourbon Connoisseur’s Dream
There are few moments in the world of American whiskey that can compare to the release of a rare and unique bottle. One such occasion is the release of the Double Eagle Very Rare Bourbon, a limited-edition release from the Buffalo Trace Distillery.
As one of the most anticipated bourbon releases of 2019, the Double Eagle Very Rare Bourbon is a product of meticulous craftsmanship, making it the bourbon connoisseur’s dream. The double bottle is made of crystal and demonstrates the exclusivity of this premium product, as only 199 bottles will be hitting the market.
A Blend of Premium Bourbons
The Double Eagle Very Rare Bourbon is a blend of the best barrels aged from a minimum of 20 years to a maximum of 25 years, and is sourced from various warehouses on the Buffalo Trace Distillery grounds. Each barrel was tasted and hand-selected to create the perfect balance of flavors and aromas.
The blend is bottled at cask strength, which comes in at a robust 90.2 proof. This means that the bourbon “allows you to experience the full, unadulterated flavor that comes straight from the barrel,” as described by Kris Comstock, the senior marketing director for Buffalo Trace.
Flavors and Aromas
Tasting notes for the Double Eagle Very Rare Bourbon describe its aroma as rich with caramel, vanilla, and hints of toasted oak. On the palate, it delivers an unforgettable array of flavors, including dark chocolate, caramel, toasted marshmallow, and ripe black cherry. The finish is long and smooth, with hints of spice and charred oak.
The Price
As expected for a limited and rare bourbon, the price for the Double Eagle Very Rare Bourbon is not for the faint of heart. With a $2,000 price tag, the Double Eagle Very Rare Bourbon is reserved for bourbon enthusiasts, collectors, and the wealthy.
