- Description
- Thomas H Handy Sazerac's 2015 cask-strength release represents Buffalo Trace's annual Antique Collection at its powerful best, bottled at 63.45% ABV. Rye spice dominates the palate with layers of char, leather, and oak tannin, balanced by caramel sweetness in the mid-palate. This is bold, uncompromising rye whiskey for sipping neat or as the foundation of spirit-forward cocktails.
