Colonel E.H. Taylor Bottle in Bond 2025 Release

Known as the father of the modern bourbon industry, Colonel Edmund Haynes Taylor Jr. left an indelible mark. After the Civil War, he established the O.F.C. Distillery, now known as Buffalo Trace, where we make E.H. Taylor whiskies today. During his storied career, he fought for Bottled-in-Bond Act of 1897 and revolutionized the industry with methods still in use today like copper fermenters, column stills and climate-controlled aging warehouses.

E.H. Taylor’s straight Kentucky whiskies are made in recognition of the Colonel’s uncompromising dedication to great bourbon.
