E.H. Taylor Small Batch

About the E.H. Taylor Small Batch

E.H. Taylor Small Batch is a straight Kentucky bourbon made in the United States. It comes from the historic E.H. Taylor warehouses at Buffalo Trace Distillery in Frankfort, Kentucky. The bottle honours Colonel Edmund Haynes Taylor Jr. He is often called a father of the modern bourbon industry. Taylor pushed for the Bottled-in-Bond Act of 1897. That law guaranteed quality at a time when many spirits could not be trusted. He also brought in copper fermenters and climate-controlled aging. Those ideas still shape how bourbon is made today. This E.H. Taylor expression carries that history in every pour. The whisky is aged in century-old warehouses that Taylor himself built. Barrels are carefully selected and blended in small batches. It is bottled at 100 proof, which is 50% ABV. That strength gives the bourbon real depth and a long, warming finish. The flavour opens with sweet caramel and rich butterscotch. Brown sugar and vanilla follow close behind. A thread of corn sweetness runs underneath it all. Then come gentle waves of cinnamon, clove and baking spice. The oak grows firmer toward the end. A soft note of tobacco lingers on the finish. This is a bourbon to drink slowly and neat. The 100 proof strength means it has plenty to say. Give it a few minutes in the glass. The sweeter notes settle and the spice softens. E.H. Taylor Small Batch suits anyone who loves classic Kentucky bourbon with a real sense of place. It is a quiet tribute to the man who helped make bourbon what it is.
