What You Should Know

Part of Buffalo Trace's annual Antique Collection releases, Eagle Rare 17 Year-Old is an extra-aged version of the 10 year-old edition.
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."
