- Description
- Thomas H. Handy Sazerac is Buffalo Trace's cask-strength rye release, bottled at 63.1% ABV and surprisingly approachable despite its proof. Spice, toffee, and honeyed raisins create a sweet-savoury character that avoids the harshness high-alcohol ryes often exhibit. A versatile dram for neat sipping or as the foundation of a classic cocktail.
