Taylor Small Batch is the foundational asset of the modern Buffalo Trace enthusiast’s bar. While it is the most widely available Taylor, it remains highly allocated and serves as the gateway to the distillery's most experimental releases. Because it lacks a specific age statement, collectors value this release for its consistent proof and the Warehouse C flavor profile, which provides a clean baseline for comparing the Single Barrel and Barrel Proof expressions. Every bottle offered here includes the signature ochre-yellow presentation tube and is verified for pristine label integrity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003c!-- 6.
