Process & Profile

Taylor Cured Oak Bourbon Whiskey 750mL is a limited Bottled-in-Bond bourbon from Buffalo Trace Distillery, created to highlight the influence of extended stave curing on mature Kentucky bourbon. Originally released in 2015 and reintroduced in 2026, this expression is aged for 10 years in barrels made from white oak staves that were air-dried for 13 months, more than twice the standard curing time for barrel staves.
