Buffalo Trace Experimental Collection No. 24 Baijiu Bourbon 375mL is a rare 375mL release from the Buffalo Trace Experimental Collection, exploring a baijiu-inspired fermentation and maturation concept within the distillery's long-running experimental series.
From the Producer
The Buffalo Trace Experimental Collection is a long-running release programme run by Buffalo Trace Distillery in Frankfort, Kentucky, designed to test how changes in grain, fermentation, wood, ageing conditions or processing influence the final bourbon. Each numbered release focuses on one variable and is bottled at a small, allocation-controlled scale for collectors and the trade. The series has covered experiments including grain bills (wheat, rice, oat), oak alternatives and ageing climate studies, and the distillery publishes technical notes with each release. No. 24 explored a baijiu-style fermentation and finishing concept, drawing on the sorghum-based solid-state fermentation approach used in Chinese baijiu and applying it within a bourbon framework; production notes on this release are limited across public sources, and the official Buffalo Trace release sheet for the exact entry should be consulted for production specifics.
Tasting Notes
- Nose — Earthy grain, light oak, vanilla and savoury notes
- Palate — Unusual and textural, combining sweet corn richness with more umami-like, fermented tones
- Finish — Warm and distinctive, with oak spice and lingering savoury sweetness
Best For
Buffalo Trace completists, experimental-spirit collectors and buyers interested in uncommon cross-style releases.
