Eagle Rare 17 Year-Old

Part of Buffalo Trace’s annual Antique Collection releases, Eagle Rare 17 Year-Old is an ultra-aged edition of the 10 year-old flagship bourbon.

Until 2018, Eagle Rare 17 Year-Old was bottled at 90 proof, the same as the 10-year old edition. Starting in 2018, Buffalo Trace increased the proof to 101.

101 proof is a tribute to the same strength as the original Eagle Rare used when the brand was launched in 1974.

According to Buffalo Trace, expect flavors of “cocoa, caramel, and oak.”
