Colonel E.H. Taylor 'Barrel Proof' Bourbon, Batch 2 (2013) stands as a prized release from Buffalo Trace, honoring the legacy of Edmund Haynes Taylor, Jr.—one of bourbon’s most influential pioneers. Bottled straight from the barrel at a striking 135.4 proof, this uncut and unfiltered bourbon echoes Taylor’s relentless pursuit of innovation in the late 19th century, including his advocacy for the Bottled-in-Bond Act. Batch 2, released in 2013, quickly captured the attention of collectors due to its rarity and the reputation established by its predecessor. The tall, vintage-inspired bottle and signature canister pay homage to Taylor’s original designs, reflecting a deep sense of heritage and authenticity. This batch is highly sought after, representing a unique chapter in the ongoing story of E.H. Taylor bourbons and the enduring appeal of barrel strength releases.
