Crafted in celebration of the 90th birthday of the late but great Master Distiller Elmer T Lee of Buffalo Trace Distillery, this signed bottling of Elmer T Lee 90th Birthday Edition Single Barrel Sour Mash Bourbon pays homage to a lineage of legacy-bourbon creation from a true icon of the craft. Released in 2009 and rumored to be derived from BTD’s #2 mash bill containing approximately 12-15% rye, this premium NAS whiskey is matured in virgin American white oak barrels and bottled at 45% ABV. Supremely rare and collectible, ETL 90th Birthday Edition Bourbon was released in select quantities and carries sweetly toned aromatics of caramel and toffee candy over smoky char. The palate is rife with rye spice, vanilla, and faintly fruity undertones.

Hand-selected and bottled at 97-proof to the high standards of Master Distiller Emeritus Elmer T. Lee, this Commemorative Edition Single Barrel Sour Mash is designed by one of the very men who knew exactly how great bourbon should taste. With the smooth and balanced sweetness that fans of Elmer T. Lee Bourbon have come to know and love, this edition commemorates Lee's memory in more ways than one, with profits from sales donated to local VFW posts, in which Elmer was active.
