Elmer T. Lee Single Barrel Bourbon

Elmer T. Lee Single Barrel Bourbon is one of the most respected and sought-after single barrel bourbons produced by the legendary Buffalo Trace Distillery. Named in honor of Master Distiller Emeritus Elmer T. Lee, the pioneer credited with helping popularize single barrel bourbon, this exceptional whiskey reflects a legacy of innovation, craftsmanship, and quality. Each bottle is hand-selected from individual barrels and bottled to meet the standards established by Elmer T. Lee himself.

Crafted using Buffalo Trace’s renowned Mash Bill #2, a higher-rye bourbon recipe, Elmer T. Lee Single Barrel handoffers a refined balance of sweetness, fruit, oak, and spice. Unlike mass-produced bourbons, every barrel is chosen for its unique character, creating subtle differences from bottle to bottle while maintaining the consistency and elegance that have made this handa favorite among enthusiasts and collectors.

The aroma opens with inviting notes of vanilla, honey, clove, toasted oak, and light leather. As the bourbon develops in the glass, hints of fruit, caramel, and baking spices emerge, creating a sophisticated and balanced bouquet. The nose is approachable yet complex, reflecting the careful barrel selection process behind every release.
