Colonel E.H. Taylor Four Grain Bourbon Whiskey
(0.75l, 50%)
A fitting tribute to The Colonel’s time as a grain trader Edmund Haynes Taylor, Jr., often referred to as 'The Colonel' was a man of many hats.
He was related to the 12th U.S. president, played a vital part in the passing of the Bottled-in-Bond law, as well as owning several distilleries (and, since we mentioned them, a cool collection of top hats). An all-around gentlemanly gent, no doubt! And if you’re going to name something after one of the fathers of modern Bourbon, it better deliver. Today, the line of Taylor Bourbons are owned by the Sazerac Company and distilled in their famous Buffalo Trace facility. Make no mistake, this is one of their premium brands and they made sure to do right by the Colonel.
This limited edition 'gimmick' Four Grain Bourbon is based on a mash bill of corn, rye, wheat and malted barley. It's inspired by the Colonel's time during the Civil War when he worked as a grain trader. During that time he learned lots of stuff. Especially that grains need to come from the same farmers and harvest in order to maintain consistency and superior quality. That's why we bet he'd be extra proud of this Bourbon, especially after its 12 years of aging. And since this one is Bottled-in-Bond, meaning that the liquor comes from a single distillation season, one distiller and one distillery. Just what the Colonel fought for.

Augustine,
Can’t go wrong with EHTs but $1.6k is lunacy. This drink is not worth $1.6k. You can find this bottle at a much lower price using your local price gouging liquor stores and or secondary vendors.
Mal,
Great bourbon have had this as well as the small batch now but this price is unrealistic. In Oregon the small batch is $47 and the Barrel Proof is $73. This inflation from companies is getting out of control. Yes, very balanced and great whiskey but def not worth this price tag.
David,
Excellent bourbon, the price is silly. I have a bottle of this on the shelf and paid nowhere near $1500. Ask around before you blow your money here
Marcus,
This is one of the best bourbons out there! But charging $1,500+ for a $70 bottle is just criminal.
Dave,
I had it at a friend's house and loved it. I'm usually not a bourbon drinker but this was superb. I had no idea how expensive it was and neither did he as he received it as a gift.
