Buffalo Trace Bourbon Cream is like having dessert at the grown-up table.
Some argue, but since the original distillery building on this site dates from 1775, most folks consider the Buffalo Trace Distillery to be the oldest continually operating distillery in the US. It sits on the banks of the Ohio River in Frankfort, Kentucky, on the same 150 acres — completing 245 years of continuous operation. It even used the "medicinal" loophole to operate during Prohibition. Now owned by Sazerac, its history includes a veritable Who’s-Who of historic Bourbon owners and Master Distillers who continue today to craft some of the finest and most popular Whiskey brands in America.
Buffalo Trace Bourbon Cream is simply an indulgent, decadent joy. In theory, it’s the Bourbon equivalent of Irish Cream Liqueur. But the flavor here is so much more. Hand-crafted in small batches, it’s made from Buffalo Trace Straight Bourbon, Cream, and a bit of simple cane syrup. But it tastes like Bourbon and vanilla ice cream melted together. It really tastes great all by itself, but Buffalo Trace recommends mixing 1 part with 2 parts root-beer to make a Buffalo Float cocktail.
