Crafted at the Buffalo Trace Distillery, Eagle Rare is a Kentucky straight bourbon aged for a minimum of 10 years in new American oak barrels. Its long maturation results in a bold yet elegant whiskey with depth, balance, and a refined character that has earned it numerous awards worldwide. Each barrel is hand-selected for exceptional quality before bottling.
Aroma Rich and inviting with notes of toasted oak, vanilla bean, dried cherry, orange zest, and gentle leather. There’s an underlying sweetness lifted by warm spice and herbaceous nuances.
Palate Smooth and complex, delivering flavours of honey, toffee, dark fruit, cocoa, and toasted grain. The oak ageing brings a layer of spice and structure, while the finish is long, warm, and satisfyingly dry with a whisper of sweet tobacco.
Serving Suggestions Best enjoyed neat or with a splash of water to appreciate its depth. An excellent sipping bourbon, perfect for pairing with dark chocolate or sharp cheeses.
Cellaring Enjoy now or cellar unopened for several years. Once opened, store upright in a cool, dark place and enjoy within 1–2 years.
Interesting Fact Eagle Rare was one of the first bourbons ever to carry a 10-year age statement and remains one of the few single-barrel expressions available at an accessible price.
