Colonel E.H. Taylor, Jr. Amaranth is the tenth and most experimental release in the iconic Taylor lineup. Known as the "Grain of the Gods," amaranth was an ancient Aztec staple that replaces the traditional rye component in this 2019 limited edition. The result is a Bottled-in-Bond bourbon that defies standard Buffalo Trace conventions with its soft, rounded, and floral complexity.

Colonel E.H. Taylor Amaranth is a high-conviction acquisition for vertical collectors. As the only Buffalo Trace standard release to utilize amaranth as a flavoring grain, its structural and chemical profile is unrepeatable. Since the distillery has confirmed there will be no future Amaranth releases, the 2019 bottling represents a closed-circuit vintage. Every bottle offered here is verified for original seal integrity and includes the signature yellow display tube. Provenance documentation is available to ensure total transparency for the secondary market.

To fully appreciate the "Grain of the Gods," this bourbon should be enjoyed neat in a Glencairn glass. A single drop of water will broaden the aromatic floral notes without dulling the unusual grain profile. Given the rarity and price tier, it is designed for slow, contemplative appreciation rather than cocktail use.
