Elmer T. Lee Bourbon

Taste
Elmer T. Lee Bourbon is a limited edition bourbon, named after Master Distiller Elmer T. Lee at the award-winning Distillery, Buffalo Trace. This splendid and smooth bourbon was crafted to commemorate Elmer T. Lee. It is produced from Mash Bill #2, like other great spirits such as Blanton’s, William Larue, and Pappy Van winkle. It is a sour mash bill produced of corn, malted barley and extra rye. This bourbon is soft and mellow with distinctive notes of oak and tannins, mingled with the essence of burnt sugar, caramel, and bursts of tropical fruits. The finish is long and sweet with faint notes of honey, vanilla, and light spice.
