THE BRAND Built in 1992 and located in Frankfort, Kentucky, the Buffalo Trace Distillery is the most awarded in the world and is one of the oldest distilleries in the United States.

Stagg in 1900, it was one of the four distilleries in the United States authorized to produce whiskey for medicinal purposes during prohibition. Renamed Buffalo Trace in 1999, it was named distillery of the year 7 times since the 2000s and distiller of the year 3 times. It produces high-quality bourbons and rye recognized around the world such as Blanton’s, Eagle Rare, Buffalo Trace or Sazerac.

First bourbon to be bottled cask by barrel (single barrel) in 1983, Blanton’s revolutionized American whiskey. This straight bourbon bears the name of Colonel Blanton who ran the distillery from 1912 to 1953. The creator of Blanton’s was inspired by his predecessor, taking advantage of the abandonment of the principle of barrel rotation so that each barrel acquires a unique aromatic profile. Blanton’s offers a precise and gourmet register of cereals, spices, candied fruits, citrus and flowers in its different expressions.
